      Same. For years all I’d heard was Eruption and Jump but for whatever reason never went further even though I liked it. I heard their song Ain’t Talkin Bout Love today, that’s a great song and such a beautiful, catchy riff. Time to finally start doing some deep diving of my own.

    Honestly, the Guitar Hero: Van Halen game was one of my favorite GH games to play because that game had all these hidden gems that many people don't know about and they were so fun to play. Eddie was a magician with a guitar and paved the way for many guitarists today. RIP Eddie
