Haha! I was at the Victory Tour concert in Dallas at the old Texas Stadium; I was 13. My aunt won tickets on a radio station along with a Victory tour jacket she still has. I think Eddie only showed up the first night which was the night we were there fortunately. He came snaking in from the back of the stage and everyone went nuts. Great memory.
Did anyone else notice that Eddie started the solo 2 beats early? Maybe he couldn’t hear the band or something. Plus he had Michael shouting his name 5 times before the solo was supposed to start.
Ok legit question, not trying argue or anything so are you saying Jenn and orinathi are more skilled then slash? Because their solos actually do sound like Eddie's specially Jenn's
Micheal really was the king of performance and really gave so much confidence energy to the girls . Without Micheal the girls would have never matched those crowds
Uno de los mejores solos de la historia de la música... Solo podía ser de una canción del dios del pop... El gran Michael Jackson 💪🍀😣🙏👍🥰🎤🎶📯🎻🥁🎸🎺🎙️⚡🤘🧑🎤🇨🇴 Co.
The ladies did the legendary status and background to the solo justice. Slash on the other hand seems to have got the set list mixed up as it was clearly a solo from another song. Eddie was and always will be the king. What would have been the greatest live performance of Beat It would be the artists that recorded the song on stage together. Just imagine Steve Lukather (& Toto) with EVH & MJ. That would be perfection.
obvi king ed. just, everything about his solo was amazing, so much better than everyone else, don’t get me wrong, i like all of them, just ed is the best guitar player in the world
It's a shame Orianthi didn't get her break via the This Is It tour. She was the first woman guitarist that blew my mind, plus she can sing and write songs. But guitar is what she does best, and I hope she's having a stellar career.
Not as big as I thought she'd be after This is It. I saw her last night in NYC (on my LLtv6 account). Venue was only about half full but the show was great and she still shreds. Got a picture with her as she was leaving.
this is my first time of seeing some of the slide concert footage. I’ve actually never seen clips of it such as these and I don’t know who Jennifer Batten is where she came from the outlandish outfits look so ridiculous but she definitely jams. I wonder where she is now ???
Randy by far, he put his heart in that solo, and it came through each note, if you listen, there were more in Randy’s playing, just hands down no comparison
@shanewalton8888 Some are a little harder to master, I've been a great guitarist for years! A lot of them are easy according to your style of playing, like me, I can play some Hendrix like it nothing but some people can't play Hendrix that well, but maybe master Eddie's style and vise versa!
@@elttabykcir I agree, but the Beat It solo is not one of them. But this dude is claiming it “can’t truly be mastered by others”. That’s a little too much fanboying for me.
@@shanewalton8888 TBH Van Halen just threw a solo together for the song, took no credits for it, and was paid with a couple cases of beer. All he did was throw some of his more popular effects in a string and make it a solo.
In fact Eddie got her to show him how to play it years later because he had forgotten how to play it because he never played it anymore @@joeljukus9129
I’m sorry but this is not a fair comparison. Eddie was one of the biggest virtuous in history. He has no match in the 20th century, not even Vai nor….well, I don’t wanna say names. Eddie will be remembered 200 hundred years from now at the same level of Paganini. Typos by iOS.
The King of Rock N Roll Music is Chuck Berry. The inventor of Rock N Roll Music is Sister Rosetta Tharpe. B.B. King was one of the world's greatest guitar players. Yes that's the truth Jimi Hendrix is the world's greatest guitar 🎸 player of all times.
Jennifer é fantástica, mas o mais bem executado foi o de Orianthi, o único que não "fritou", r que deu pra ouvir cada nota sem atropelos e muito bem explicada...
Okay, leave Eddie out, because we all agree that only Eddie can do Eddie, a close second would be his son Wolfgang. Now you can choose one of the other three. What say you? I like Orianthi, it is pretty clean. On a side note, only MJ could sing HE-HEE and OH-Who in another guitarist's solo.
Жаль что он не догадался взять Bucketheadа на это соло. Эдди конечно крут! Он извлекает уникальные звуки из гитары! Но при всём моём уважении, именно тут он как-то не брежно накидал. На мой взгляд гармоничней всего наложить соло получилось у Слэша, оно конечно не супер техничное, но тем и лучше, без всяких напиливаний, которые он делает теперь зачем-то. Хочется именно его переслушивать снова и снова. Orianthi тоже не плохо наложила, но как-то не достаточно драйва, многовато пауз.
Well slash it's very passionate. If you see GnR concert, he will never perform exactly same the way he play on recording or another concert. That's why michael trust him to play on serveral albums like "Give In to Me"(Dangerous),"D.S"(HIStory),"Privacy"(Invincible)
he should have just gotten eddie to to it each time and paid the man; its ironic that EVH did the original solo on the record for free, and the song went on to become platinum and MJ made an absolute fortune for it - surely he had the money to bring EVH on the stage for 30 seconds....

Eddie as the original, but I have to say Ori was pretty special as she was the last to play it with MJ.
やっぱりすげぇ～な～エディーのまねをしているギター弾きいるけど、音程というか間というかテクニックもそうだけど全く違う。音符にしたら正しいのかもしれないけど…これは未だに誰もまねが出来ていない
Greg Howe, as a Batten replacement, was pretty spectacular too. Worth a check out.
Great display that reveals division of perspective.

All is good.
Some are......peace to anyone!
Essa musica é muito facil vc perder o tempo dela!

You are this a lot when Eddie performed outside of Van Halen. Had challenges keeping time with drummers not named Alex.
