A Lil’ Ain’t Enough was the first single released from “A Little Ain’t Enough“ the third full-length solo album by original Van Halen vocalist David Lee Roth. The album was released January, 1991. (First post on YT in HD). Featuring barely dressed women and oddly dressed little people, the video was banned from MTV shortly after its initial airing. The album featured the lead guitar work of Jason Becker, a then up-and-coming guitarist who was diagnosed with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS, aka Lou Gehrig’s Disease) a week after joining the band. He managed to finish recording the album, but was unable to tour in support of the album, as his condition left him with little strength in his hands.
