David Lee Roth

The '80s were a period of radical change in hard rock and metal, and 1986 was no exception

Glam metal reached a fever pitch, thrash hit a new benchmark and former bandmates squared off against each other.

The hair metal era exploded in a big way while some classic rock and thrash favorites were still going strong in 1986.

Feeling old yet? Don't worry, these albums will keep you young.

Bickering musicians, fan-boy moments, previously unknown secrets .... they're all some of the instances that Howard Stern have given us radio gold.

These songs rocked, then rolled over into the mainstream.

In typical Roth fashion.
