I’m happy y’all appreciated it. He was a legend. He is a legend. R.I.P. Eddie.
🔥
One of the best ever. I'm still sad of his passing.
RIP Eddie very much missed will never be forgotten.
@UA-camHatesFreeSpeech582 he was a legend, but not the best, I respect he made music and inspired people to make music,
@@AlexSolomon91 i said one of the best. There is a difference lol
RIP Eddie Van Halen. A true master of his craft.
I think the knob is volume, and he's doing what's called volume swells
Eddie literally tapped into the universe. RIP.
True😁
It's so melodic at times it almost sounds digital like a synth.
100%
Eddie was a virtuoso. Classically trained pianist and self taught guitar player. Simply put, he’s the 🐐. His son Wolfgang is carrying the torch now.
Rip King Edward.
yeah, man nobody could touch Eddie, but his son Wolfie is a phenom as well. and an incredible voice too!
EVH passed away exactly 3 years yesterday October 6th. Although his passing leaves a great big hole, it really does my heart good to see people still learning about what a treasure he was. RIP to the master. Always missed, NEVER forgotten. He just left too much much fabulous music behind. You should check out his son Wolfgang playing the lead for a well known song of VH's called Hot For Teacher. Wolfgang is a chip off the old block and a fabulous musician in his own right.
Well said on all levels!!!
I never get tired of watching reaction videos of Eddie Van Halen. No matter who is watching or what kind of music they are into it never fails to blow their mind seeing it for the first time. Reaction videos have just completely confirmed how great the music was during these years.. Such satisfaction to see just how many people love what I grew up on. Never gets old.
When Eddie makes people smile, I tear up with joy.
I love when people discover Eddie!! Congrats!!🎉🎉 RIP G.O.A.T.
Long Live the King.....Eddie Van Halen 🎸🎸❤❤💣💣🤘🤘
Hey guys, loved your reaction because you listened to it and didn't pause it every 10 or 15 seconds to make a comment on the video. I'm gonna check out more or your reactions. Great job.
What you saw when he was turning a knob was what’s called “ Swells”. It was just the volume button on his guitar. He was just turning it up and down really fast to get that affect. There were guitar geniuses back then. But Eddie flipped the script on a lot of what we hear today. But back then it’s like that old saying “ Eddie wasn’t the student, he was the Professor that was shot back in time”. There is NO OTHER!! RIP, Eddie Van Halen! Thee undisputed heavy weight guitar GOAT!!
All humbucking pickups are wax potted today because Eddie did it first.
He bought paraffin wax and dunked his pickup in it, melted a few along the way and finally got one that came out ok.
what the volume knob does and what he was after was muting the sound of him tapping with his left hand on the board. Gives it that cello sound.
@@tracyborden1468 Ya, I know. Thanks
He was magical 🔥
King Edward! The GOAT! RIP...This man and his music shaped my musical life. Truly missed...but he`s still with us. Just push play.
You guys just witnessed the greatest guitarist to ever walk the face of the planet straight 🐐🔥
Arguable, Brian May, Hendrix, Slash, Eric Clapton, The Doo, Herman Lee... a lot of contenders and VERY hard to call that title. Without a doubt he is 100% in the running for that convo. Love him, R.I.P. before my health got bad I used to play this solo. ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ Legend.
Brian May took some lessons from EVH back in the 80's
@@Sean-pc1xc He did indeed and then continued to practice a develop. :) By 1994 easily on par with EVH. Ironically the best guitarist is probably a no name, average joe. Always will be and has been that way, some unknown who devotes their life to their passion for love and we never even hear them play. One of the kids in my school if he is still playing now, so 15+ years ago. Technique wise if he is still playing honestly probably better than all the greats... he was playing their songs perfectly by 13. He started at 5. So 25 years ish he's been playing. The way he played was like he floated over the strings, truly mesmerising Samuel his name... for the life of me can't remember his last name. Seen Disturbed, Slipknot, A7x, BFMV, Dragonforce, Metallica... and many other bands with legendary guitarist not one took my breath away after seeing Sam play. Insane...
Shawn Lane the G.O.A.T.
Yes he is the best, if you don't agree just go drown your sorrows in a Bud Lite.
I still can’t believe he’s gone 🥲 a true legend right there no one will or could play like Eddie I’m so grateful I got to see him play live it would just take your breath away you would be just in awe of him playing just amazing 🤩 talent 🎸🫶🏻🤘🏻🙌🏻💕 RIP Ed you are so missed by millions 😔🙏🏻
Seen this so many times and it never gets old… saw it live several times and getting to watch new people experience it awesome 👍🏼 Eddie was one of a kind. And is sorely missed 😢
No sound effects pedals no gimmicks, just those hands are what made this man the greatest we will ever see RIP Eddie 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻
He used phase 90
And flanger
That’s what you call a guitar Virtuoso. Legendary!!
I was there both nights they filmed for this video special in New Haven. I look back now and realize how incredibly fortunate I was. I love VH.....any year/era.
I think it sounded more like a cello than a violin. Great solo from a guitar god!!
Eddie was one that didn’t have many effects, so he built the Frankenstein to do exactly what he wanted. He DEFINED the single humbucker superstrat
This was Eddie. It was a combination of solos. He has done starting with 316 from the Album For Unlawful Carnal Knowledge, and then part of Eruption from the album Van Halen, then Cathedral from Diver Down, then the intro solo from the album Mean Streets, then back to Eruption which is what blew everyone away when that came out in 1978. He played like a pianist and percussionist and loved to make sounds that no one was doing! Like Jimi Hendrix he took guitar to levels no one saw before and is considered one of the biggest influences on modern guitar. He is the best rhythm guitarist and he didn’t just play cords, he played riffs throughout his songs! Always the best and boy is he missed! RIP Edward!
Little piece of information. At the time of this tour 3:16 had yet to be actually put on wax.
legend
Eddie was TRULY gifted. Great reaction, y'all!!!
Eddie actually began as a classically trained concert pianist in his youth. Later on he & his brother Alex taught themselves to play guitar and drums respectively. BTW, Alex's drum solos are incredible as well. It has been said that Alex could play the double kick bass faster than what could even have been created digitally-it's insane & sounds like a roaring engine when he does it.
My unit when I was in the Marine Corps, used to blast Van Halen for the Somalis, but that was before Black Hawk down, fun times! And they told us that rock&roll would never die! RIP Edward ❤❤
I was fortunate enough to have witnessed this 3 nights in a row on this tour. It's probably one of the absolute best shows I've ever experienced. It is a scripted solo with subtle changes for one show to the next. Glad you could appreciate it, and acknowledge his greatness.
November 1st 2007, Verizon Center, Washington DC will FOREVER be one of the greatest days of my life. I bought the VIP 5 star package with backstage passes for my elderly father and I. We had front row that night and was able to stand next to Valerie Bertinelli who was there to support her 16yr old son Woflgang who was playing bass guitar. We were let into the venue during soundcheck (125 of us) and Ed walked down the line and shook all of our hands and chatted for a few seconds. He autographed my guitar and took a picture with my dad and I. Will never forget that night. I still have the guitar (I have David Lee Roth, Joe Satriani, Eric Johnson, Steve Vai, Billy Sheehan, and Ted Nugents autos on it as well) and it will go to my son when I leave this earth. So thankful I was able to meet Ed in this lifetime. Great guy.
His parents were both classic trained musicians this solo was a tribute to them ,his father was his favorite musician
I'm so glad that I was born in 1966 I grew up listening to VAN HALEN Eddie Van Halen is one of THE BEST guitar players that you will ever see.
When Ed was asked how it felt to be the greatest guitar player he answered, “I don’t know, I’m not Roy Clark.”
I still loved you Eddie! I would have given anything to see you and Roy play together, that would have been insane.
Great reaction!! Eddie, (RIP), was a genius, that inspired a Generation of Musicians, including myself!! How lucky are we to still be able to enjoy his legacy!!
Checkout more Van Halen!!! I'll be sure to check it out with you!!🤘🏻🤘🏻
I was there in the Colosseum that night. This was truly transcendent.
If you like drums, check out his brother’s drum solo from the same concert.
Which, somebody probably already mentioned it in the previous comments, but he and his brother started on opposite instruments. Ed started with drums, Al with the guitar. They ended up switching and became the best at their craft.
He Was The Best & Always Will Be!
THE KING!!!!!!!!!!!
EVH
⚡👊🏻⚡
In an interview he said he learned how to do all that because when he was starting out, he could not afford the effect pedals, so learned how to a lot without them.
Best to ever do it. And his brother Alex, the drummer, is one of the most underrated drummers ever…mostly due to being in a band with this monster.
This solo is actually multiple solos that he’s recorded on albums, with a smidge of freestyle sprinkled in.
A great Van Halen video to react to next would be Unchained Live at Oakland Coliseum.
One of the Kings of the Whammy Bar. Legend.
Appreciated the jumping right into the video reaction. Glad you enjoyed it. Nice job!
You were knocked out watching this on video, you shoulda been there live to see it in person. This was the first & only tour I went to see VH live back in 86 when they play my city, and it was totally mind blowing all the way through. Eddie worked up a solo to play for all the concerts, and they were all pretty much the same with maybe a few subtile difference, but he stuck to the same pattern of piece's he played. The knob he's turning is is the volume control, and he's using an effect called a digital delay to make it repeat what he's playing. He discovered while playing the digital delay & using the volume control he can make it sound like a violin or viola. The man was a master of his instrument for the style he played.
RIP Eddie. The GOAT.
This was my first concert I was 15 .. I was never the same again.!!
⚡️🎸⚡️🎸⚡️🎸⚡️🎸⚡️
At 6:49 Eddie's right hand is on the "Volume Knob" and his left hand is on the "Fret Bar". This man could make a guitar sing it's own song just by adjusting the volume and strumming a note on the fret bar. Eddie explored every millimeter of that guitar and made music within his explorations. There are greats....There are Legends and then....... There are GODS!!!!! Eddie was a GOD!!!
I loved this Eddie was over powered in this video with talk in the back ground, thank you you guys, were awesome the best !
Edward Van Halen started on piano as a kid before he became the GOAT on Guitar. Check out what he did on piano/Keys on songs like - I'll wait. Even Michael Jacksons clan asked him to do the guitar solo on Michaels big hit song -Beat it - and ofc Eddie played it. Enjoyed ur reaction
Happy to be apart of your channel. Thanks for having me. New member, at the time this was written!! Can’t wait to see more from y’all!! Chris Stone. Billings Montana. Oh and PS. I saw Eddie Twice live in concert. Once with David Lee Roth on vocals, then again with Sammy Hagar!! He did this EVERY SINGLE NIGHT. With different variations. Love and light to you both. Hope you do a lot of ACDC. Start with BACK N BLACK!! Every one else started with THUNDER STRUCK!
Eddie made me want to play guitar. Fun fact: other people mentioned he was classically trained and how his brother Alex is on drums. But they didn't mention...when they started, Alex was given a guitar, and Eddie wanted to play drums. One day, they decided to play each others instruments if memory serves me. Good thing.
And you need to look up the solos of Alex and Michael Anthony as well. This truly was a supergroup, with all the talent they had.
Absolute LEGEND 🔥 RIP
Was an eargasm when i first heard it... Still an eargasm today!!!
R.I.P EVH!!!
This is my favorite so far. 🥹 RIP EVH
Fabulous Reactions! I saw them in 1984 at the "Cow Palace" right in front! After growing up as a child with VH, it was simply, one of the best concerts I've seen. And, I've seen some! Anyways, Eddie made all his own guitars (creating his own sound). That one is the infamous, "Frankenstein" His brother on the drums ain't no slouch either. Ranks in the top 25 drummers of all time. Look/Listen in on, "Hot For Teacher" Eddie has his solo but, his brother Alex opens that tune. His drumming on that tune, pretty much cemented his place as a top drummer. It is also a superfab & funny video. Peace On Ya
Me too!
Eddie was the greatest innovator and experimenter ever. He always was trying for new sounds he could create. Total legend. RIP.
IMO the greatest rock guitarist ever. RIP the king
@Confare 💯💯 HE IS KING AND WAS THE BEST GUITARIST I'VE EVER SEEN AND HEARD.
About 20,000 hours of practice to even come close to Eddie Van Halens level. R.I.P. Eddie.
Yeeeeeaaahhh!!!!! Let’s Fucking Gooooooo!!!!!🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
That was his volume knob he was turning up and down...along with an echo effect and another modulator effect to make that sound.....it's from a instrumental track called "Cathedral" from their "Diver Down" album (1982)...mde to remind you of a church organ but also sounds like a cello or a violin.
This was a compilation of various riffs and techniques from things that were on the albums over the years....he did a similar solo for every concert...but there was some improv in there as well...just to mix it up a little!
THIS IS LIKE THE 40TH TIME I'VE WATCH PEOPLE REACT TO THIS PERFORMANCE...AND IT NEVER GETS OLD!
I've seen Van Halen three times in concert...and it will never be enough!
He's one of a kind. Many have tried to duplicate but no one has ever equal Eddie Van Halen. He literally created a whole new genre of guitar playing when he hit the scene.
all with a volume control and some awesome pickup design. What a master.
And he would still finish the whole freaking concert🎉 after all this night after night. Professional😢
Lucky enough to see VH live ….this guy was a genius,no question. RIP EVH….heaven has one hell of a band.❤️🎥❤️great reaction.
An ALL TIME MOMENT IN HUMAN HISTORY!
“Makes you want to play’.,I’ve been playing guitar for 45 years and I’m pretty good. Ed was from another world. Much higher level than anyone!!! I just thank God he was here and recorded❤️❤️❤️🎸🎸🎸
I saw him twice, truly MAGICAL, 🎉 He built that guitar, & his love of Classical music brought him to this point, amazing artist ❤
Love you guys. And never stop a guitarist during his solo
the way eddie came up with his solos was he took all the best parts from practicing and rolled it into a solo for the show
It's just insanity...he was at his absolute peak too! He literally just makes people fans of the guitar.
He was MUSIC. Had that light that very few are blessed with.
This was a montage of solos from different Vanhalen songs. He mixed it up at different shows but that is the core of it. RIP Eddie
So one of the greats, and under rated for sure.. RIP heavens a little more musically better
I saw Van Halen open for The Doobie Brothers around 1976. I had heard of them but didn't know much about them. About 90% of the fans were there to see The Doobie Brothers as I was. Needless to say I was blown away!
I saw him perform this solo on this tour and the next. Absolute genius
The definition of a rock star.
Great reaction 👏 he's the goat
G -GUITARIST
O-OF
A-ALL
T-TIME
RIP EVH
That was several riffs from several different songs with improve thrown in throughout. Eddie loved playing around on his guitar, and finding new sounds. This was just an exhibition of that.
Gen X here we was so lucky to grow up listening to this man the greatest rock guitarist period Rip EVH
This was a ling string of parts from different songs. Eddie was interviewed and asked about this performance. He was partying all day and was actually pretty lit up. And he was flawless. Also doesnt remember performing it.The segment w the sort of scifi effects is the back of the guitar is opened. Applying pressure on the body and neck produces distortion . He started on piano . Mastered that. Brother Alex started on lead and Eddie on drums. And he was very good. But older brother Alex wanted drums so Alex got his way and the rest is history. "The smiling guitar player" Eddis talent was as big as his humble nature. RIP Eddie. ❤❤❤
When Van Halen came upon the world in 1978, Eddie became a paradigm shift...he changed forever the way a guitar was played
When i visited the Rock and roll hall of fame I almost cried when i saw the Famous guitar standing there... Thanks for the childhood memories from a punk kid
There will never be another Eddie, or Rhodes, or Dime, or the legend SRV. The best always die.
You definitely NEED to react to Texas Flood live at the El Mocambo. One of my favorite pure blues performances ever.
I grew up in an adjoining city to where all four of the band members lived. We all went to different high schools at the same time. Since I too played in garage bands we heard each other playing from time to time. Word of backyard parties grew quickly. Saw them play many time so I became familiar of Eddie. We talked many different times on various subjects. Nice friendly guy.
The knob he was turning back and forth was the volume knob, to create the violin effect
🤘🤘🤘💕💕💕R.I.P. EDDIE VAN HALEN 🙏🙏🙏
This is the difference between a great guitarist and a virtuoso. There are certain gifted people who have abilities beyond the capabilities of us mere mortals.
There will never be another Eddie Van Halen. The genius of Eddie was he made the guitar sound anything like a guitar! His sense of rythm and timing was unmatched. We miss you Eddie RIP.
The late great Eddie Van Halen!
The part with the Knob swells is called Cathedral from the Diver Down album
Greatest guitar player of all time. It isn't even that close. He literally reinvented what a guitar is and can do. As a life long guitar player, his best work is actually in his rhythm guitar playing. So creative and skilled. Every song was like a duet with the vocal. Guitar has forever been changed by Eddie in a way that even Hendrix didn't do. Eddie could always jump around like crazy because his motto was, mute the strings you don't want to hear. it's much easier to mute strings than try to be super accurate with your right hand.
R,I,P EDDIE! AWESOME REACTION 💯🤘
One of the Best to EVER DO IT !!!! WHEN YOU KNOW GIFTS ARE GIVEN BY THE MAN UP ABOVE
the knob he's turning is the volume knob.
The most mind blowing guitarist in my 52 years on this planet!
He was a genius, best ever, thank you Eddie.
The violin/cello/synthesizer sound is made from guitar swells, a technique where you turn the volume down while the string is struck by the guitar pick, then turn it back up so you can hear the note continue to ring out.
RIP Eddie. You took a piece of my heart when you left this world. It’s just not the same. 💔
Eddie was on another whole level.
That is the volume knob he is turning! :) RIP Eddie!
I’m 68 years old hands down EDDIE is the GOAT ❤️🇺🇸✌️
RIP EVH!!! The GOAT in the world of guitars!!!
The Master of the Harmonics and finger jive on the guitar. I like the one part that sounded as if they were cries of Whales.
