David Lee Roth gave the Van Halen News Desk an exclusive quote in response to the new Van Halen book: In response to the inevitable inquiries and rumors compelled.

Early life[edit]

Roth was born in Bloomington, Indiana. He is the son of art teacher Sibyl Roth and ophthalmologist Nathan Roth, a celebrated eye surgeon with a lucrative medical practice and a portfolio of astute real-estate investments. The senior Roth was featured on the TV show Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous in 1984, on which he claimed that he was Van Halen's first manager helping the group obtain gigs in the early days. Nathan owned a 14,000-square-foot home in Pasadena, California named 'Rothwood' as well as a chateau named 'Bradbury.'

Roth is of Jewish Portuguese heritage.^[6] Several members of his family were surgeons: uncles Dave (neurosurgeon) and Marty (orthopedic surgeon), and a grandfather.^[7]

His uncle, Manny Roth, built and owned the New York establishment Cafe Wha? in the early 1960s, which featured performers such as Bob Dylan and Jimi Hendrix. At age seven, Roth got his first taste of show business from the inside by hanging out at Cafe Wha?, as mentioned in his book Crazy from the Heat. His uncle was one of Roth's first guests on his short-lived radio show on New York's 92.3 Free-FM.

After living in Bloomington and Swampscott, Massachusetts, Roth moved to Pasadena in his teens. He 'bounced around' a number of schools and saw a psychiatrist for three years, eventually attending a ranch for troubled teens where he cared for a horse to build a sense of responsibility.^[8] He attended The Webb Schools in Claremont, California, and John Muir High School in Pasadena, then Pasadena City College (although he did not graduate) where he met the Van Halen brothers, Eddie and Alex. During this period Roth worked as a hospital orderly.^[7]

With Van Halen: 1972–1985, 1996, 2001[edit]

In his late teens, he was singing solo, as well as with a group called the Red Ball Jets. Roth says this name was a reference to the red dye used in food at that time, including red candy balls, which would exacerbate his hyperactivity and lead to 'Monkey Hour' at the family home. Another Los Angeles group, Mammoth (featuring Alex Van Halen on drums and Eddie Van Halen singing and playing lead guitar), occasionally rented the Red Ball Jets' public-address system. Roth agreed to join Mammoth as lead singer. In 1974, when told that another act was using the name, they changed their name from Mammoth to Van Halen.^[9]

Performing original and cover songs, Van Halen eventually gained local success, becoming a regular feature at the Starwood Club. During their four-month stint there they were discovered. In 1976, Gene Simmons took note of the band (in particular Eddie Van Halen, who Simmons hoped to recruit for his own band, KISS) and assisted them in producing their first demo tape.^[10] Although featuring many of the songs that would be included on their future debut album, the tape garnered little major label attention. In early 1977, Warner Brothers' Ted Templeman came to the Starwood, heard the group, and signed them to a contract.^[9]

Roth is also a guitarist and harmonica player. Most acoustic guitar parts in Van Halen songs, such as 'Ice Cream Man,' 'The Full Bug,' (which also showcases his harmonica playing abilities) 'Could This Be Magic' and many others demonstrate his abilities on slide guitar and acoustic guitar. Virtually all performances, in the studio and on stage, featuring acoustic guitar or harmonica were performed by David Lee Roth, mostly featured in his early years with Van Halen. All live songs during his years with Van Halen featuring electric rhythm guitar while Edward Van Halen was soloing were also played by Roth, often featuring his flamboyant flying-V styled guitars.

Released in 1978, the debut album Van Halen earned the band significant national attention. The album eventually sold more than 12 million copies by 2014. The original Van Halen released five more successful albums over the next seven years. Roth is often credited with promoting Van Halen's image as the quintessential rock band, one devoted to a lifestyle described by David Fricke in Rolling Stone as 'a nonstop booze-and-babes party train.' Despite this wild image, Roth was a key to the band's success both as lead singer and as their principal lyricist. Roth's lyrics worked in harmony with music composed by Eddie Van Halen to create the trademark tunes that helped transform Van Halen, in Fricke's words, into 'the monster rock action squad that ruled the charts and the airwaves for seven years.'^[9]

In early 1985, while still a member of Van Halen, Roth released Crazy from the Heat, a popular solo EP of off-beat standards. Singles for 'California Girls' and 'Just a Gigolo/I Ain't Got Nobody' succeeded largely due to innovative music videos (produced by Jerry Kramer and co-produced by Glenn Goodwin and Bobby Diebold), which featured ridiculous characters created by Roth and his Creative Chief Director, Pete Angelus, who directed Van Halen's Roth-era videos.

Despite the band's success, a creative rift developed between Roth and Eddie Van Halen early on. The former was mainly interested in lighthearted songs about partying and sex (along the lines of Aerosmith an
