Vandenberg is the first studio album by the Dutch hard rock band Vandenberg, released in 1982 on Atco Records. The album was produced by Vandenberg with British sound engineer Stuart Epps and recorded at Jimmy Page's Sol Studios in England.
The power ballad "Burning Heart" was released internationally as single from the album.[2] The album peaked at number 65 on the Billboard 200 album chart in 1983[3] and AllMusic called it "easily one of the most underrated debut metal albums of the '80s."[1]
Vandenberg was remastered and re-released on Wounded Bird Records in 2002.
