There's a clip of it on Youtube:

There's also a few threads over in comp.sys.atari.8bit (just do a
search for "van halen").  I remember getting a copy of this back in
the day from a software catalog ("Marrs" or something like that),
which is long gone, and I don't have a copy on my PC (if anyone has
it, can they send me a copy?).  It might have also been available from
Antic's catalog at some point.  I know were were at least a dozen or 2
digitized song samples at the same time the Van Halen clip appeared.
