Their version of Summertime Blues is great. You should send Rolling Stone a resume.
Their "Summertime Blues" is delicious deconstruction, but for me the absolute killer on that album is "Doctor, Please". Here's where most of the Cream-wannabe bloozebreaking heavy hamfisters (remember, it wasn't quite called heavy metal yet) who were turning the blues into sludge got exactly what they deserved, right down to Leigh Stephens's welded-to-the-whammy-bar guitar solo. Van Halen only wish they had something that dangerous to handle...
