    How do you get out from under your legendary guitarist father’s shadow?…you kill it on every instrument. Eddie did a good job of nurturing Wolf to become his own man. Such a likable personality as well…

Put on a helluva a show🔥🔥🔥I’m so glad Wolf is being his own man. His father was 1,000% correct about Wolf’s talent. He is the true definition of a musician. What can’t he do? !!!!!!

    Wolf is definitely a musical genius. His songs have so much feel and punch. Not everyone can write a good song. This guy writes multiple per album. I just wish he could have came out in the 70s or the 80s. He would be a rock God.

    One thing I remember about Wolf playing bass in the VH days from the bootleg dvd footage was he very much put his own stamp on it different from Mike Anthony like doing fast octave jumps on the neck on the Bass/drums intro on ‘So This is Love’….And locking in with his Dad an octave lower on the intro of ‘Chinatown’ while switching from tapping /releasing to a capo to jettison it to continue from the nut.
