    I want to throw a suggestion at you speaking of guitar work being second to none. I am not saying it's comparable, but "Mike Dawes - Jump" is one of the coolest Van Halen covers I've ever seen. He does the whole thing on fingerstyle guitar and makes that song into a pretty cool piece. I think ya'll would both enjoy it.

    Man, there are so many great V.H. songs. My favorites are from the D.L.R. years, maybe because that was my early teens, and V.H. was very different than anything up until then. I'm The One, On Fire, Romeo Delight, Is This Love. it goes on and on. Most every song on the first four albums is a must hear. This album was written during some dark times for Edward.
