      I'm only 20 and I got into Van Halen at a very young age, actually through playing Guitar Hero Van Halen. I must've been just 10 or 11 but when I heard the opening to Ain't Talkin' 'Bout Love I knew I was hooked. This is one of those rare bands that transcends generations - young or old, it's hard not to fall in love the first minute you hear it.

    There's a interview with EVH and it's amazing how much influence on everything in the guitar world Eddie had . Every generation has its inovative people but Eddie's influence changed the game . Tabliture is a form of writing music and was created so you could figure out what he was doing and how to play it so a whole form of writing music was made. Just saying . peace from Alaska

    9:00 = classic Van Halen sound. You recognize some singer's voices anywhere you hear them & some instrumentalists anywhere you hear them. Eddie Van Halen will live forever.
    Final edit: I know you're impressed with Rammstein's 🔥 live. (me too) Van Halen was 🔥 live without the pyro gimmicks, just pure talent.

    As fast as his fingers move I've often thought of him as Fast Eddie Van Halen! His apparent love for what he was doing can be seen on his face, and it's evident on your face as well, your cry of being tortured falls flat my friend, it's obvious how much you are loving this! Nobody knew you could do that on a guitar until Eddie came along!

    No one could ever convince me that naming Eddie's solo "Eruption" is anything less than perfect because of the way he goes absolutely *volcanic* with it.
    You've pointed out how wild the crowd got before he started playing, but when he played the crowd was nearly silent because they wanted to hear every single note. They'd cheer again every time he paused but STFU again when he started playing more. Also, his gestures & facial expressions as he interacted with the crowd shows that he loved all of it; It's as if he was saying, "I put in the time. I've put in the work. I know what I'm capable of doing, but now is the time I get to show you what that is."
    I'm not a betting man but if I were, I'd wager that Eddie's guitars went to Heaven with him...Because he certainly played the Hell *out* of them.
    Intellectually speaking, I know Eddie put in so much time & work on the guitar that he'd long since developed calluses on his calluses for the calluses on his fingers but I'd almost swear that, whenever I hear him play, my own fingers start to bleed out of empathy for his fingers.
    It took me a while to figure out how he could play individual notes so fast but, logically speaking, his fingers had to be moving supersonic just to get the extra notes out of the guitar quickly enough.
    Okay, I admit I'm exaggerating here but it's not by much... 😁
    It doesn't matter how many times I hear Eddie playing, back from their first album (simply named "Van Halen") all the way to today & still running, I still get chills along my spine. Something like *45 years* & it never gets old...
    Do you realize that, for your generation, this was the kind of music that your grandparents grew up with, as it was all happening for the first time...The likes of Kiss, Styx, Alice Cooper, Billy Joel, & many, many more were all brand new on the scene & your grandparents saw it all, first-hand (Yes, I'm *that* old). Back then, they didn't have auto-tuners or sequencers; heck, keyboard synthesizers were still quite firmly considered "experimental" as musical instruments, as the Edgar Winter Group has shown us. Back then, *what you heard is what what they played,* without the benefit of computerized "correcting" algorithms. Nowadays, with the right audio software, any no-talent hack could sing or play like an expert.
    Let that sink in...
    So let me just say, from the ranks of the old school, that I absolutely love how the new generations are taking this in for *their first time* & begin to understand why many of us say that modern pop music is all crap. Taking in the considerations that I've already mentioned (& even more that I *didn't* mention), this is closer to objective truth than modern "celebrities" would admit.

    I was one of the people who recommended that. Thanks for the reaction. I know you called it torture, but I saw an awful lot of smiling on your face. It looked to me like you enjoyed it, and I'm glad you have now experienced that. Everyone should.
    Now it might make a little more sense why rock fans are so saddened by his passing.
    If you want to listen to more of the big hits that everyone reviews, consider checking out Hot For Teacher, Panama, Ain't Talkin Bout Love, and Right Now.
    If you want to go deeper into the catalogue of genius and have content a bit more unique, here are my suggestions.
    From the era with David Lee Roth on vocals: Unchained, Beautiful Girls, Drop Dead Legs, or Mean Street.
    From the years with Sammy Hagar on vocals: Best of Both Worlds, Cabo Wabo, 5150, Poundcake, Top of the World, Finish What Ya Started, or Don't Tell Me What Love Can Do.
    Thanks again.

    Here is something that most of you probably don't know. This is why I immediately know when a Van Halen song is playing.
    The guitar Eddie is playing, guess what? He built it himself. Yes, that's true! He could not find the sound and tone he was looking for, so he built his own. He called it the Frakenstrat! How many guitarist do you know that have done that?
    I was in the 10th grade when I first "Eruption" way back in 1978. I am 60 years old now and I am here to tell you that "Eruption" sounds better today than it did 42 years ago. I have listened to many great guitarist over the years, but there can only be 1 G.O.A.T., and for me that is the 1 and only
    Eddie Van Halen!

      And this isn't even an ounce of his skill.
      His rhythm, phrasing, can write hit songs on guitar and piano.
      When you put on a Van Halen album, you never know what to expect.
      This is just his solo he considered noodling.
