I still love those songs today. I loved VH since the 1st time I heard Eruption in 78. Ed playing on Beat it was like 2 different types of awesomeness coming together!
      MJ and EVH were near the top of their game at that point so it kinda blew everyone's minds

A few months later VH 1984 Dropped and “Jump” was on the radio all day. I saved my money and bought the cassette. I was hooked! I bought all of the tapes after that. At 15 I got to go see the 5150 tour. I didn’t find out until years later that the Beat it guitar was Eddie. It’s sort of my Pepsi Challenge story. A blind litmus test.

    Idk anything and am not a doctor so purely spitballing here .. but about evh’s cancer… he swears it was the metal pics, but i wonder if it wasnt the direct cause, but some kind of a conductor while be surrounded by EMF waves so often.
    Compounding it was his chain smoking from an early age and alcoholism is toxic and sugar feeds cancer.
    I know it doesnt matter now n i do not mean to be flippantly opining here, just genuine curiosity bc i still am somewhat in shock years later.
    EVH was jst so full of life and electricity seemed to flow from his fingertips. And he always looked so healthy until he bottomed out in the 90s with his addictions taking hold.
    Even though it has been known that Ed could flare with his temper and get a bit intense when he did, when he was performing, he always had that million dollar smile he would flash you while encapsulating everything that is entailed by the true meaning of “just play”.
