    A reminder that great guitar playing is not only about technical ability, but composition and soul. No notes wasted. Every note was just right, perfectly timed and just enough. In this respect he was rather like Ritchie Blackmore.

    Ten bloody good reasons Fast Eddie deserved his own Signature Fender Strat but never got one. Complete with the weed sticker.

      Absolutely he should have had a signature Strat no question. He made that Strat scream like no one else before him and into a new genre that will be unmatched.

    "Bomber" was the first Motörhead' golden age album that I listenned to when I was a kid. As a teenager starting to learning how to play the electric guitar this discovery was a source of fun, decompression and practical learning with nice memorable solos and riffs. "Bomber" really made me rethink my metrics of what would be a good rock n' roll sound. Eddie's solos always act like nice parts of the songs but not apart from them. His sense of being in the service of the main idea of the composition is a subtible but valuable thing that every musician should pay more attention. When listening to rock music people just wanna have fun, do not get into the way. Still today he is one of my favorite rock guitar players. Thanks Eddie!
