I am 56 and I have seen many of the greatest guitarists perform live and no one, absolutely no one has left me speechless and mind boggled like the King, Eddie Van Halen. I was blessed to be able to see him do this 3 times . RIP Eddie, you will be missed forever!
I am also 56, unfortunately I only went to one of their concerts. You are so correct...he played absolutely perfectly and they sounded so good, so good! What a loss!!
You are very fortunate to say the least!
"He is an artist, and that guitar is his canvas". I love that 🙂
There will never be another like EVH. RIP, legend.
No....but there is another
Eddie was one of the greatest... Legend... Anyone who argues that is clueless.
He set a standard... so many guitarists have tried to duplicate his style, to no avail. He was the best at what he did.. RIP
Been a lifelong fan of Van Halen and EVH as a musician. As much credit as he gets for being a balls out shredder, I personally love his bluesy riffs better. That guy could make some of the dirtiest sounds come out of a guitar, he is sorely missed.
dude no angus young did it
I think Dime Bag Darryl comes to my mind, kirk Hammett from Metallica. STEVIE Ray Vaughn. Not taking anything away from the Goat. Slash might disagree to
Just about every guitarist has a different playing style, EVH even gave his Frankenstrat to Brian May and Ted Nugent (two seperate occasions) to play, while he played theirs in return, Brian, Ted and Eddie all came to the conclusion that they sounded like their natural selves, despite being on different guitars tuned to how the owner would have it.
@@joshthomas2536 it's in the hands. I saw EVH Plat a Tele... he sounded like Ed. I played a guitar that I saw Doyle Dykes play on, hoped that he had left some magic in it, but alas, I still sounded like me.
BY far thr greatest guitar player to ever live. He turned that instrument into about 3 different instruments
Sometimes you have to be a guitarist to fully appreciate what he did.
But you got it.
I grew up with Van Halen, saw them live several times. Miss him, what a loss.
Saw them twice. Including the concert this was taped from.
My dad went to the 1983 tours.
@@vyzolus783 As did I! Amazing.
I couldn't agree more. I grew up with these guys in socal and saw them play before they ever got a record contract or open for anyone and I was sold! Greatest Rock and Roll guitar player that's ever lived. RIP Eddie ❤
I will say it a million times, and mean it everytime Being a guitarist myself, I know what EVH was to me. Everyone else here knows what he meant to them. You can throw out all the superlatives you want about The Master, but there is never going to be an argument about his mastery of his chosen art. No else had players around the planet going "What the F is that". From his grin to his fingers Eddie was born to bring us joy through his expression of his art, and you can thank whatever god you believe in that he shared his joy with us.
ALWAYS #1
UNPARALLELED.
When the master emerged, from the opening chords of you really got me, every player knew the sonic landscape was changed in a way that was unheard of up to that time. Eruption smashed his foot onto your throat daring you to try to emulate him. No one can. do you know why? You cant be Eddie because you don't think like Eddie.
There was never anyone like him, and there will never be another.
I’m so glad you liked it. Eddie is the reason I started playing guitar when I was a kid. My heart sank when I heard he passed. Like losing a family member.
R.I.P. to the greatest guitar player ever, The King, The Master, Eddie Van Halen
It makes me smile when someone see's Ed play for the first time. We who grew up with Ed's playing, and got to see him live were blessed.
Once you see Eddie Van Halen do this you'll never forget it!
Yes I did seen them with all 3 singers each show was about the musicianship
@@tomlorenz7283 yes I've seen him live as well, was very sad about his passing.
There will never be anyone like Eddie Van Halen. He was put on this planet to change things, he did. I miss him so much, like he was my older brother. I cried so hard when he passed.He was an innovator of so much guitar and amp technology! He was a guitar, and then some! God Bless Edward Van Halen and keep him in your arms forever.
I watch someone’s reaction to this everyday. It either gets my day going or picks it up depends on what time I watch. Your reaction was priceless. Your face lit up almost made me cry. Very good analogy on the artist. He was such a good musician,song writer, performer, innovator,virtuoso! The Beethoven of our time. Miss you Eddie, thank you for reacting.
The Master. The Innovator. What's great about this DayOne reaction is that it shows the true key to Eddie's brilliance: He wasn't using his talent to reach just music nerds or guitar nerds... he made music that *everyone* loved, while making their jaws drop and putting on joyful, spirited performances. RIP and thank you.
Eddie Van Halen's guitar solo on Michael Jackson's “Beat It” is iconic
Thats what he's playing at the end , before the band comes in .
And Eddie came into Michael's studio, listened to what they had so far, laid down the solo in 1 take. Did not accept any money or credit for it. Obviously, we've long since figured out it was Eddie.
I wanted to thank you for the kind words that you’d said about Eddie. He was such a talented performer,. I’m 62 now, I remembered when I first saw Van Halen. I was 17. I saw them in Hollywood before they became famous. After he and Peart passed away. I really appreciate life so much more.
Hard to think of people who changed the way an instrument could be played. Two for the electric guitar were Hendrix and this man right here. In pieces, most of these techniques existed in some way (the tapping was used in jazz and avant garde music a little), but only Eddie put them together as a firethrowing style. We all worshipped him.
Saw him do this live in ‘81. Never knew a guitar could makes those sounds before that day
Saw him do it in 81 as well. Awesome performance!
'79 & '86. never forget it
I’ve not only viewed this exact solo over 100 times, from 20-30 different reactors, I’ve seen this twice live!! Once in 85. I was 14. Then in July of 89. For my 18th bday! And it’s longer live, and yes you are right, every show. I stopped by your channel, just to see a new reaction. Sorry it’s a year late. But your reaction was way worth it. I love watching a younger generation see, and hear, exactly what you described. “ Artistry”. Eddie, if born today, would still be light years ahead of his time. He was a “Rock God Musical Genius”. And will forever be with us, because of people like you!! So again, sorry a year late, but your reaction was BEAUTIFUL to watch. Thank you!🙏❤️🌹
To me Eddy was the best guitar player ever. He said he was poor couldn't afford different instruments to make different sounds so he learned how to make a guitar make those awesome sounds. Phenomenal performance, and a great iconic band.
Now you see why he is called the G.O.A.T. The greatest guitarist of all time. He inspired many to play, to develop their own style, yet his can NEVER be copied. There will never be another Edward Lodejvik Van Halen.
This is his mash up combination of several of his best solo rifts of a few different albums, 316 is the opening when hes sitting with the cig, wrote that for his son Wolfgang after he was born who got to play with his dad in VH for some years is now killing it with his own band Mammoth WVH.
This video came out in 86 or 7. WVH wasn't born until 1991.
@@emt5330Edward didn't name it 316 until the For Unlawful album in 1991, but it's the same piece of music being played here. It just hadn't been put on an album yet.
Saw Van Halen "many" times on that 1986 5150 tour.I can't believe this clip is almost 40 years old ! RIP Eddie 🙏 Thank you for the incredible memories😇
Most Gorgeous lady ever got some of the best ever live performance in Eddy. Loved her reaction to some pure heart and forever heard many years after we are all gone.
He was put on this planet just to go ahead and do that he's the goat I have seen those guys about 30 times in concert and he never disappoints he is by far the most talented out of any of these guitar players the different sounds that he makes it's almost like he's playing 345 different instruments. I was looking up their first album came out when I was 15 and it's like living with a modern-day Mozart all of our Generations
He was the greatest!! The King!!! So happy you enjoyed it!!
Eddie played the guitar with all the joy of a golden retriever chasing a frisbee. Thank you for your reaction :)
Seeing the reaction of someone the first time they hear that will never get old. Wide open eyes and mouth. The slowly shaking of the head in disbelief. Mr. Van Halen had that affect on everybody. Nobody did it better and yes, the man loved playing the guitar. Seen Van Halen live 4 times, twice while working security and standing right in front of the stage. Not only the best seat in the house, but I was getting paid for it. Along with his brother Alex on the drums, Anthony on the bass and I much perferred when Sammy was with the group. He was a pure rocker like those three were. David was to strange I guess the best way to describe him. I did love the music no matter who was lead singer. "Panama" is in the top 3 of my all time favorite songs. Journey's "Any way you want it" is first followed by Ozzie Osbournes "Shot in the dark" at #2. Hey there is a song you should react to. Like "Anyway you want it," it starts off hot and never stops plus there is some amazing guitar in it by the 2nd best rock guitarist, Randy Rhodes. I know you know who Journey is, saw them 6 times, worked 3 of them and from right in front of the stage. hahahaha God how I miss those days. Anyway, if you haven't done a reaction video to "Any way you want it," you should. I suggest the version from their live album called "Captured." By far the best version of that song and like I said a moment ago, it starts off hot and stays hot until the end. "Panama" by Van Halen is an amazing song and check out one by an all girl band called KSM I think. I know K is the first letter amd M is in it too and there are 3 letters in it. The first letter of each of their names. The song is called "Distracted." It is a really great song. Well enjoyed seeing you react to Edward the king of guitar playing. Oh I have seen a video of a I think 11 or 14 year old girl who playes Eruption almost as good as Eddie did. That was incredible to see. Shoot sorry another mind boggling video is of an 6 year old boy named Avery. He is much older now but at age 6, this little kid could play the drums just as good if not better than the rock drummers he was copying. He could play just about every popular rock song you can thing of. One of the best was when he played a song called "Wipe out." 6 years old and that little kid nailed it. YOU should check out that one and some of his other ones. I swear, you won't notice any diffference between him and the drummer to what ever song he is doing and that includes the greatest drummer of all time from Rush, Neal Pert. I promise you will not only be blown away by this kid, you will be looking for more of his videos. Well take care always and be safe.
One of the greatest musicians of the century.
I'm so happy you saw it for what it was, Eddie expressing himself through his guitar, and I'm pleased you enjoyed it. Just imagine being able to see him doing this live. I saw them during this tour when they came to my city, the solo followed the same segments, maybe had a few subtile differences, but basically the same. It was an incredible show.
Seen this many times. God bless his guitar playing soul... And Angela,you look stunning as always!
King Edward, he had millions of boys in love with his mesmerizing guitar skills and millions of girls in love with his infectious smile.....The Greatest Ever.... .Long Live the King........
He don't need any sound machine, he is the sound machine.
Eddie is the best guitarist. He's the Rembrandt of electric guitar. He's one of those guys that shows up every thousand years or so.
I saw Van Halen live 2 times back in the day. First time with David Lee Roth as lead singer, second time with Sammy Hagar lead singer. Of course I preferred the first one, but to be honest, I my main interest both times was all about watching Eddie rock out on that guitar. I probably never really stopped staring at him the entire concert 😂😍🥰!
Hello from New Hampshire Beautiful young lady... R.I.P to one of the Greatest Rock Guitarists Ever,E.V.H!!!😓
The only man ever who makes a guitar smoke 2 different ways at the same time
Yes!! I was gonna say that guitar needed a cigarette after that 🤯
I ever get tired of listening to this masterful guitar solo. 🎸🎶
The GOAT. He played the solo on Michael Jackson's Beat It. He died last year.
I barely remember the first time I got laid. The first time I saw Edward do this in concert? BURNED into my consciousness. It became a part of my being. He was such a gift to us.
Eddie was the first at many new things and a true legend . I was lucky enough to catch Van Halen twice live in the 80,s and they were SO good ! Just awesome to see younger generations discover this man and his many talents .. RIP Eddie you will be missed Sir ! Great reaction !
I think she legitimately fell in love with Eddie and then started grieving his loss by the end. It's hard not to watch him play and grieve for our loss of him.
He set millions of guitarists on mission to replicate his sound and style.
Imagine being the originator.
There is only one King Edward.
He said in an interview years later saying He didn't remember that show cause He was drunk . I saw Van Halen on that tour .
I love this lady even more than I love Eddie van Halens performance tonight....and I think you know why.....you rarely see anyone this spiritually AND physically this beautiful anymore.....(keep it 100%)
Little known trivial fact. This isn't Eruption but rather contains elements of the Eruption solo from Van Halen I. It also contains Cathedral, Mean Street, that unrecorded intro (Wolfgang?), various other things and variations on themes. Fun stuff.
I see someone mentioned this below and 316 sounds right on the intro.
It brings tears to your eyes, doesn't it?
It as pure joy to watch EVH (R.I.P.) perform live twice. He loved playing for his fans and you could feel it when you watched him play. One of the best ever. I loved that dude for his passion and his heart. Check out his Jason Becker video sometime if you want to know what a great guy he was. That video will have you in tears.
For some reason you missed the great introduction by Sammy Hagar! It is my first time sitting in with you today, thank you for allowing me to do that! His wife once said that even while sleeping his fingers never stopped moving! I loved your reaction, and thank you for waiting until the end to react! AWESOME!
Saw Van Halen in 79 at the Texxas Jam Cotton Bowl in Dallas, TKO, Sammy Hagar, Nazareth, Van Halen, Boston ,Heart and Blue Oyster Cult, I think we left after Boston but Van Halen definitely stole the show, thanks again!
Guitar is voodoo to begin with..... and THIS?!?! I got to see Van Halen seven times, and the skills and fun were always tops!!
A lot of people don't realize this was recorded over two nights in New Haven, CT. Watch the first 5 minutes and where the lit cigarette in the headstock is. It's there and then it's not. Hmmmmm. Same outfits same show 2 nights. Amazing. Lol
The 🐐 Eddie changed the game 🎸
I've listened and seen Ed since 1978. That dude 😎 set the highest bar for guitar 🎸 I've played since 82 and I'm not half as great as he was. ..I really enjoy to the Max level seeing these videos of people hearing him for the 1rst Time.... They are special to say the least....thanks for showing alot more people his mastery and love for guitar 🎸 that dude's the best there ever was . ..... imagine the hours it took to perfect that shit;)..... We Miss you Eddie! I cry knowing you left us Way too Soon 🔜
The original studio version included on Van Halen's first album was only about 3 minutes long & it started out as his own finger warm up exercises before coming out onto the stage. If you hear that album version, you can pick out those original parts from the overall play. Eruption evolved over time to include lead guitar riffs that Eddie played in other songs they performed. In a way, Eddie's solo includes a montage of music from the band's own songs.
This is the kind of music that I grew up with as a teenager & it warms my heart to see younger generations starting to pick up on the core of the culture they missed before. Remember that my generation was experiencing this kind of stuff for the first time in history. Back then, there was no auto-tuners or sequencers. Some bands used modulator foot pedals for their guitars. At that time, keyboard synthesizers were just barely coming into their own as musical instruments on their own right (as the Edgar Winter Group showed us).
Early in Van Halen's career, Eddie couldn't even afford the foot pedals so he figured out how to make the guitar itself do the sounds.
He was 13 days older than me. So, I can truly say I saw him from the beginning. I never saw anything even close to this performance then, and still not today!!
I've played guitar for almost 30 years and, although I'm no Van Halen, I can say that it's an awesome feeling to be able to pick up a guitar, or any instrument for that matter, and make it do exactly what you had in your mind, a minute ago. So on that note, I can tell you for sure, that Eddie loved every minute of that performance, and thousands of others just like it.
I hear ya hun!! Brings tears to my eyes. RIP Eddie Van Halen. As well as Neil Peart from Rush.
Great reaction - much respect. On top of his great mastery of the guitar, his band had awesome music. Just about every one of their songs were and are a BANGER! The band had the greatest and most charismatic front man/lead singer, the greatest guitarist in the world, and awesome singing. It seems every song of theirs had a hook that was catchy. React to Mean Street, Jamie's Crying, etc........ You are Awesome!
Eddie Van Halen he will always be remembered as the Johann Sebastian Back of the electric guitar. Just like back then, he lifts us up to heaven with his musical majesty, and now he does it on the great heavenly stage.
RIP: 1955 - 2020 See you forever master😔🤘
Your reaction is the exact reason that i watch every one of these i can find.
Just a guy and his guitar, no effects, no trickery, just pure unadulterated talent, Edward the king Van Halen.
The master, there will never be another EVH!
Saw him in 1984 at MSG, I'm a lucky man!
The King is dead...Long live the King. Great job Day one.
he was truly a force of nature. that is the music of my youth and I saw them several times back in the day. if you haven't, I would also advise listening to maybe at least their first two albums. on one of those there is a shorter version of this, I think it's only like two and a half minutes long and then it goes straight into a cover of that Kinks song, girl you really got me. it's an incredible moment. but when you get to hear him playing within specific songs and see how perfectly tailored it is and how groundbreaking it was at the time, now you get to see that level of artistry as well as just being able to hold an audience's attention with just his guitar alone for 10 minutes.
At 02:13, imagine catching that pick. Oh, yeah that was me! Not for this show, but my hometown.
Yes beautiful ..this was me as an indigenous Kiwi teenager growing up in the 80s as a metalhead that grew up on the Motown sound and jazz ..not many of us Māoris listened to Metal as it was considered white ..but I didn’t give a phark about that music for me goes beyond race and culture ..this is spiritual 👌🏾 LOOOVED them gorgeous lip presses sexy 🫦🤤🔥💋
A true master class in guitar playing, you are missed Eddie RIP.
Welcome to a taste of the kind of music we had the privilege to enjoy in the ‘70’s-‘80’s during the concerts we went to. No wonder most of us are mostly deaf. 😂
True legend. Watched him live many times!!🙏🎸🤘
great reaction Day One, as always, he truly was an artist and one of a kind
There will never be another,R.I.P EDDIE VAN HALEN
One of her patreons should request Rush's Neil Peart drum solo
Eddie was the master of the guitar 🎸 and many great guitar players have there own special sound. U knew the special sound of Eddie Van Halens gutiar. Love 💟 this very special man
Good lord, a few minutes in I was all about balling. This guy meant so much to his fans and to guitar players like me. There are players, then there are innovators and visionaries. Eddie was one of those in a short list, from Hendrix to Page to Eddie to Stevie Vai, those guitarists who took the instrument to new heights. We miss ya big guy. RIP and God bless.
Imagine being there live and hearing this like we did in the 80's.
Eddie was great rest in peace brother ⚡🖤⚡💋💜💋🙏🧡🙏
This is EVH baby!!!!!!
⚡👊🏻⚡
Eddiewas the man. Thanks so much for sharing that video of arguably the greatest guitarists that ever lived. May he Rest In Peace and we are so fortunate that the music of Van Halen will live on forever. 😎👍🏾🌹
The technique is called tapping. He first seen it done by Jimmy Page. Eddie took it to a whole new level.
Immediately subscribed to you after your reaction. You are in fact a sweety. Luv ya ta death. Looking forward to seeing more of your reactions. Btw Eddie is the one who perfected all those different styles of playing guitar cause he couldn't afford the equipment necessary to make the sound he wanted. So he just did it by himself. Guitar goat.
you gave me chills with your comments on Eddie's guitar playing. He really was a Beethoven of our time, thank you!
Saw VH 5 times and it never got old !!!
I am so happy that my stepdad took me to see Van Halen before his passing. It's one of my favourite memories and I dont think I'll ever see a concert I loved as much as theirs.
When people say Hendrix, Clapton, Page & Van Halen weren't or aren't men, but rock gods....this is what they mean. EVH was the fastest of the bunch. His tone, speed, clarity, use of electronics and creativity were off the effing scale. Simply sick. If Jimi had had a son, it should have been Eddie.
A master at speed and hammer-on's. R.I.P. E.V.H.
when it comes to amazing guitar players such as Eddie Van Halen and his God-like skill and raw talent as a musician and watching him play, you cannot help but stand and awe. *In AWE!*
a lot of people put everything into their music. this man put his soul into that guitar
I'm so lucky I saw Eddie and the boys in 1979 when I was 14.
RIP EVH! The pure joy you gave to this world will NEVER be forgotten!!!
He wrote the book the Master the King Edward of the six sting .🤘 Miss ya Ed
I was 18 when the first van Halen album came out and as soon as I heard Eddie I knew the bar was raised high. R.I.P EDDIE thanks for the great music.
My child hood hero.... RIP Eddie Van Halen
Unreal eh!? He was The First One! Long live the King!
R.I.P EVH, the GOAT. We miss you.
Still brings tears to my everytime I see this 😔
Eddie Van Halen was the Michelangelo of guitar playing
I looked to Eddie when I was playing. not in the reaction format but check out "Interview with Eddie Van Halen: Is Rock 'n' Roll All About Reinvention?' to see his heart
