The drummer is Alex Van Halen, Eddie's brother. Their father was a Jazz musician, and appears on a VH cover called Big Bad Bill is Sweet William Now. That's from a VH album.
Yep Diver Down in 1982. Their father is Jan Van Halen Their Dutch so Jan is pronounced YAWN.
This whole tune is brilliant. Top 5 Van Halen song of all time. Dirty riffs and grooves!!
This has always been one of my favorite Van Halen hidden gems.
What a lovely lady she is amazing I think she needs to talk a little bit more but it she's coming along CCS I've got to see her at the top she sucks eat sexy baby
Van Halen said that this song was in part inspired by AC/DC's "Back In Black". So it has that swagger and leer which was also perfect for Roth.
Eddie gets so much attention for his gunslinging solos but he is also one of the greatest in the pocket rhythm players too
To me that's his greatest asset.
This song is sick. Eds rhythm playing is so brilliant
Thank you for this one!! It's my favorite Van Halen deep cut, I listen to it over and over.
THIS is my favorite VH riff(s)! It's just sick & the solos just sound so good with the underlying riff. Great reaction
These two brothers had an offbeat no one could copy, they were off time so many times and it was perfection!!!!
I was 21 when this came out but VH was The biggest hard rock band from 78-84;in my opinion. I remember many book covers decorated with the VH and Aerosmith logos!!!
Hey Chod... Van Halen has a lot of gems like this scattered through their albums. Most of the hits that got played on radio a lot were the "Van Halen sound" but they did a lot of different types of songs. Dig deep, you're sure to find some other songs you like a lot. Oh yeah, and as a drummer too I can tell you Alex Van Halen is crazy good. He has a great groove and pocket and can also bring the heat when he needs to. I was a senior in high school when Van Halen's first album came out and immediately loved Alex's drumming.
this was always one of my favorite songs...its got that attitude that something badass is coming, like backing your freshly restored BIG BLOCK 69 Camaro out of the garage for a night of cruising.
One of the best rock songs ever
Love this song! Unchained is another gem of theirs. And,yes, Van Halen was at every high school party. We sang along. They’re symbol was drawn on every book cover and in our notebooks.
This song is so underrated !! The ending is epic !! Thanks for reacting to Van Halen …RIP EVH, the ultimate guitar hero …
This is my favorite Van Halen song. After hearing this song, it takes me forever to get out of my head.
YES
Dude yeah. Absolute favorite Van Halen song
They were big before 1984 and then they just blew up with this album to one of the biggest bands on the planet, Jump was a huge MTV hit along with Hot for Teacher
Van Halen had a huge variety of sounds, they really didn't box themselves into 1 thing. Yes, Jump, Panama, Hot For Teacher are some of the big blockbusters, but they have so many different sounding songs. Listen to Little Guitars, for an acoustic Spanish guitar style intro, for example. He didn't always shred the guitar, he was amazing on melodies, rythms and funky sounds too. Definitely try Little Guitars, it's a huge fan favorite.
Absolutely Chod! This was the band whose music was played on boom boxes every day on the bus- so cool you picked up on that. It’s the whole reason I know this song.. it’s not even a deep cut to me.. it just was part of Van Halen in general. This album was so huge - you kinda had to know most of the songs.
Eddie was more musical than any other talent he had. The subtlety & nuance in this track proves it. And the whole band were played just as freaking good. The lyrics. The bass. The drums. This is peak Van Halen.
I totally agree with your guitar assessment on this track
Best reaction to this particular song that I have seen... and I watch every VH reaction video I come across. I could not agree more about Eddie's improvisational noodling compared to his composed solos we are typically accustom to. Well done!!!
I'd also like to suggest you check out Eddie's son, Wolfgang Van Halen...his band is Mammoth WVH. His song "Don't Back Down' is incredible. He joined Van Halen as the bassist at 16 years old, plays all the instruments on his album and has an incredible voice. He's not a Van Halen replica, he has his own style, but it is rock. Watch 'Don't Back Down' first, then if you want a amazing, heartfelt song about his dad and his relationship, (they were best friends), watch 'Distance". If you don't cry then you're dead inside, lol. It's his only song that isn't a rocker, but it's beautiful. The video is filled with old family video starting when he was born and his dad taking care of him, up to the end..it's amazing.
Yes. Van Halen was that high school band
It's interesting to note, to all the drummers out there, that alex always played the drums to Eddie's guitar groove which is why people always think of Al as playing slightly behind the beat... Ed and al were the rythm section with the bass filling in the gaps.
Eddie and Alex in high school used to play there’s dad‘s jazz band. Both of the boys were Classical train on the piano.
I loved this LP and this song...very cool.
YES! I was in High School when this was out and I remember someone playing Panama on a boom box on the bus ride home. Definitely a go to band back in the day.
I went to a high school with 2000 students. I'll bet 1/2 of them had the Van Halen symbol drawn on their book covers. The book covers were always brown paper sacks from the grocery store. Cut to fit the book.
Love the ending jam session when they just groove. Wish it wouldn't end!!!
That solo was straight up jazz fusion, and as many of times that I’ve heard this song, because I’m watching and listening to it as a reaction, I’m catching myself begin to catch parts and sounds that I’d never paid attention to before.
Wow he surely was awesome!
BTW Chod, one of EVH’s influences at the the time was the late great
Allan Holds worth who wanted to make his guitar parts and solos sound like a saxophone.
Strong Holdsworth vibe on this solo.
Bingo! I heard riffs that Allan used back in the 70s on this@@michaelgarcia2050
That was a great comparison of Eddie going off and a Saxophone. I saw and felt it once you said it.
Brings me back to my childhood, Eddie was bad ass!
VH totally reminds me of high school.... Sitting out in the back parking lot with friends, smoking!
Always loved this song. Now I can't help think of Meg Griffen when I hear it
Same lmfao I love VH but this is always the “Meg is hot!?“ song
Eddie was so versatile that he can make anything g fit right into the song from any style...he can blend jazz fusion like this, he can play slide,he can play country chicken picken, he can play blues, he can play orchestra pieces like eruption, he can play Spanish/ flamenco style...it's just goes on and on..he can do it all at a very high level..all the other guys are either more straight blues or jazz or country and he can blend everything so well..that's why he's the best ever
Eddie loved jazz fusion goat Allan Holdsworth and this solo he project some of those myriad scale forms often derived from those such as the Lydian, diminished, harmonic major, augmented, whole tone, chromatic and altered scale
VH’s “1984” album spawned a few massive hits , but some of my favourite songs were lesser known ones like this one. Another lesser known one from the album is “I’ll Wait”. A constant driving beat that I think a hip hop fan would appreciate.
"I'll Wait " was co written by Micheal Bolton .
Amazing solo on it
I remember hearing I'll Wait on the radio occsionaly. But yeah - Panama, Jump et al were MASSSIVE hits
Eruption was like Eddie saying HELLO to the world party! His other solos are like him conversing with you at that party.Great choice. Thanks or posting!
This tune was a capture of what they usually performed live. Breaking into grooves was their thing. Still - 'the best unheard of band'!
It's called swag'. At the end, that's Eddie daydreaming on a guitar locomotive to the moon.
That guitar riff at the end sounds a lot like Clapton, (reportedly his main influence).
You’re right about the jazz influence here, he was listening to a lot of Alan holdsworth who used a lot of the those long spread finger runs
Ed was listening to tons of Allan Holdsworth, an insanely gifted virtuoso jazz fusion guitarist, when they recorded this, and it clearly influenced his solo work on this song. Your saxophone reference makes total sense and you're right on the money. This one of my under the radar faves from the might Van Halen.
Yep - Eddie’s lead guitar playing overshadows his rhythm guitar and sick fills in the reaction world. It’s kind of a shame that the complete guitar player regularly gets a narrowed appreciation.
You are 100% correct sir!
Those are jazz phrasings.
If you were to transcribe those notes to a sax...BAM!!!jazz!!!
R.I.P. EVH
✌️💛🤘
Eddie was very influenced by fusion guitarist Allan Holdsworth when this album came out, so fusion was big on this, plus their dad Jan Van Halen shredded jazz clarinet. Check out “Big Bad Bill Is Sweet William Now” from the Diver Down album.
Yeah, good comparison between Eddie's soloing and a saxophone solo. Had an abstract, jazzy thing going on.
Looks like Dee is digging some Van Halen, right on!! Check out "When Push Comes To Shove" next ✌️ ☮️ 🇱🇷🎶🎵🎼
I love this one, it’s a hidden gem.
Yes , this was one of those bands that we jamed to back in high school. But it seems like we had so many bands that we'd listen to.
Chad, you are right. This may probably Eddie's best or most innovative solo. The guitar parts of this track is just insanely good!
All the drums on the 1984 album were simmons electric drums.
Eddie always trying to find that unknown note. There is no reward unless you push the envelope.
For drums, try Van Halen’s “Outta Love Again” and esp “pleasure dome.” Alex rips it up.
Since you're a drummer too, check out Van Halen's Light up the Sky, Alex has an amazing drum breakdown in this song.
Great reaction! 👍
Very good analysis of Eddie's solo in this. I agree 100%!
Check out "Push Comes to Shove" if you want to here Eddie step outside of is normal solo.
Great reaction Chod!
Eddie seems to get an Allan Holdsworth sound and feel in this song. Eddie, along with many other great guitarists, cites Allan as a major influence on his guitar style.
You might enjoy this ..... ruclips.net/video/QjsePMx7xu0/видео.html&ab_channel=FreddyMacielMusic
Cheers and thanks from Australia!
R.I.P. Eddie Van Halen. Miss that man.
Amazing tune👍
Agree 100 % with the saxophone reference. I definitely heard some Ronnie Laws influence in there. Rock on ... ^v^
Great song and reaction!
That's called groove
The drummer is Alex Van Halen, Eddie's brother, so yeah.
To each their Own....in your ear you hear, that's what makes him great., he will always be the best...that's right I said it.
Yes, this is the band that flooded the hallways. This is pretty typical Edward Van Halen...he, Alex and Mike have a handful of tune's with killer outro's.
Try listening to the fullbug from the album fair warning, it's a showcase of van halens virtuosity and the solo like this one could easily fit being played on a saxophone, parts of it are almost like slow or medium tempo jazz.
This is one of my favorite Eddie solos, too!
Love your take on Eddie on this one.
The album art is of a cherub smoking, baby with wings
Actually the song I meant to recommend was push come to shove.
Eddie throws a little bit of everything in his playing and that's what grabs you
Great reaction. Your take was more spot-on than you know. Eddie was inspired by AC/DC on this one, and he described it in recent years as "almost a jazz version of Back In Black", with a similar beat, maybe a tad slower. This is one of my favorite VH songs too, and it stands out in its distinctiveness. And yes, VH was on top of the world and perhaps THE premiere rock band in 1984, in high schools and beyond.
EVH admired Alan Holdsworth... you can hear some of that influence in this solo.
EVH was really into Allan Holdsworth around this time.
Heavy rock? Give Band Maid a listen. "Alone", "Yolo", "Moratorium", "No God" , are a few picks from their 7 album catalog. Judging from some comments I've heard you mention, you won't be disappointed. Also, a brand new single, "Unleashed", has been released. It chronicles the bands time during the lock down years....quickly...lol.
You want to hear how tight Eddie and Alex are , listen to "Outta Love Again " , of of Van Halen II .
Eddie could play sax. His dad played jazz clarinet and sax.
From a drumming point of view, the most distinct thing about Alex to me is the insanely dry snare sound! Why Alex does that I don't know but it sets him apart from even Neil Peart IMO. Isolate that snare sound and then duplicate it. You will enjoy drumming that much more I think.
🔥🔥🔥🔥
I think you mentioned that you’ve noticed that Van Halen has two sides musically, a softer side and a more aggressive side. That is the difference between Van Halen with David Lee Roth and Sammy Hagar. Van Halen prior to 1986 was headed up with Dave. Which is the real Van Halen. Sammy stepped in around 86. While he was a good fit and they put out good music they were never the same. Many called the band Van Haggar post Sammy. David Lee Roth was the legend. And the music with Roth is legendary.
😁👍
Pure Eddie.
Wanna hear one of their BANGERS?? Listen to Van Halen's Summer Nights!! Guaranteed to jack you up!! 🔥
Listen to "I'm the one" if you want a little aggression.
Thanks for the Van Halen reactions! You should give “Cabo Wabo” or “Feels so good” a listen. Another good one is “In and out”.
Try Big Bad Bill , that'll throw you for a loop.
Do Girl Gone Bad same side of album...Just make sure your sitting down.
Eddie Alex and David Lee Roth we're all smoking at this Alex was the first one to stop smoking after his father died and then Eddie Dave I don't think you ever stopped but he slowed down to the point where it was next to nothing.
Every beginning guitar 🎸 player wanted to be like Eddie. Eruption spoiled everyone
Allan Holdsworth inspired Eddie on the outro solo.
React to “Top Jimmy” off of this same album!
When you get a chance check out Gregg Allman I ain't no Angel thx
Drum ist brother
If you dug this then listen to Good Girl gone Bad off the same album
It amuses always when ethnics discover white music. It never clicks to them that all 12-tone music is white music. Even rap msuic is white music. 12-tone is white.
