Makes me smile when i see younger generations enjoying and being amazed by Rock Stars i grew up watching...Blessings to you all.
... Yeah, it makes me happy too!
We grew up with some of the best musicians ever
THEY SHOULD HAVE SEEN HIM IN REAL LIFE..
Same here! Watching the smiles on their faces is epic to me. Watching them realize the meaning of what they've heard us say all of their lives - you don't know what music and talent is.
They see this and it dawns on them their music ain't music. The music today is a computer. Ppl on our day were talented beyond belief! We had God tier greats! Pink Floyd, Led Zeppelin, Ozzy, Eddie Van Halen and SO. MANY. MORE.
OUR GENERATION WAS BLESSED WITH THE BEST MUSIC AND COMEDY EVER!!!!
Eddie Van Halen said in an interview that he was drunk as hell when he did this guitar solo and barely remembers it, That's how awesome he was!!!❤️
he did it every show...he forgot every time he did it?
Huge Van Halen fan and never saw an interview where he said he was drunk during this performance. Can you tell me when I can and see where he actually said that
how dumb he was,, cost him his life with the smoking.
Look I grew up in the 70's & 80's jamming to this so I'm a huge fan.Eddie had a huge drinking problem with a coke addiction to go with it. That's documented and undeniable, but everyone is certainly not perfect and me included. But I did kill speakers and batteries to Van Halen and their contemporaries.
One of the guys said something about the value of the guitar. I’m not sure if it’s that one specifically, but, he built what is known as the “Frankenstrat”. He does have some or maybe one that looks similar from a distance. But, the Frankenstrat is the only one that exists. I’ve wondered what it would fetch at auction. No one will ever know. Thankfully, his son and brother have all that stuff and would never let it go.
He was the Mozart of our time, and we were lucky enough to be here for it. 🖤♥️
The looks on their faces? Priceless. Now you know. RIP EVH
He made his own guitar and he made his own amplifier. He is a pioneer of guitar sounds. Nobody had ever heard these sounds before he brought them to the forefront in 1978 and beyond.
Modified them.
He put that guitar in Dimebag Darrell's Coffin.
@@walkawaycat431The Black/yellow striped Bumblebee Charvel.
@@KillerMcDiller Yes. The bumblebee.
10 February 1978 Van Halen comes out actually before that they were called Mammoth 1972. Unbelievable. Changed everything. Changed everything Eddie. Your plans for God. We will never ever forget you. I've seen you live so many times brings a smile to your face. You make me cry. You make me laugh. I love watching you play brother. You're mesmerizing. Oh my God once in a lifetime just like my other idol. Bruce Lee what is Van Halen going to do now? Catalog of all this great music. It's got to be played. You can't just sit on the shelf. Alex Michael Anthony Sammy Hagar David Lee Roth Valerie bertinelli y'all got to do something and Wolfgang sorry
The other thing with Eddie is he genuinely loved playing and smiled all the time in concert. It was infectious
If he wasn't grinning, he was making a "Rock & Roll" face.
EVH didn't invent tapping but he certainly perfected it. He died in 2020 from complications due to throat cancer. RIP Eddie
Brain cancer actually,is wht ended him..from the throat,and spreaded to his brain
@@jtfree348when it comes to cancer, geography is typically irrelevant. 😥
One too many cigarettes.
I believe his father may have invented tapping
Wrong @@jnette777
Eddie was born in the Netherlands in 1955. Mom was Indonesian. Came to America not knowing English. Greatest ever
Stop the presses!!! Did not know that and thank for sharing 🥰
You can definitely see the Indonesian in Alex compared to Eddie
Eddie was such a talented guitar player. One of the best ever. Rest in Peace
I saw them on this tour and stood 30 feet from Eddie the whole show. I don't think I blinked. As a guitar player, I walked away both inspired and inspired to quit.
The best of the best. Millions miss the King. RIP to a Legend 💔🔥🎸
Eddie Van Halen, Michael Jackson, Muhammad Ali, Bruce Lee, Elvis Presley, Albert Einstein among others...all of them were a gift from God to humanity
I would take out Michael Jackson and Elvis...and add Prince.
Two of them were pedos. It takes serious talent to get past that.
can I add DJT- please ?
@goblanc I say absolutely add them but keep MJ in there!
And Freddie Mercury…❤
I’m 55 now but saw tons of live shows throughout the 80’s. Saw Van Halen three times and each time Eddie would do some kind of crazy guitar thing halfway through the show. He was a literal guitar god. He and his brother (Alex on drums) were born in the Netherlands and came to US with their parents as young children. English is not their native language (there are videos on YT of Eddie and Alex doing interviews speaking Dutch) so not only were they born musically gifted, they speak English as well as any native. Eddie also played the piano very well and would play it as well as guitar in live shows. Eddies only child, Wolfgang Van Halen inherited his father’s musical gift and plays bass and guitar in his own band. Eddie was one of a kind and his death made the rock world a little less bright. I’m glad I got to see them live before he died. But he never suffered with carpal tunnel. He was playing as much as ever up until his cancer got him too sick to do much of anything.
It's hilarious seeing the looks on their faces! It's the same look I had on my face back in '79 when I heard Eruption the first time!
Eddie was a classically trained pianist who applied what he learned and transferred it to the guitar.
He said why he learned to play like this in a interview, he when he started out he could not afford the equipment for the effects so he taught himself to do it without them.
There’s a video you should find of Eddie just doing a sound check. Everyone is just hanging around doing their jobs and some are talking to one another then Eddie starts his sound check and you can imediately feel the energy and see everyone has to just stop and watch in awe
This solo always brings a tear to my eye, seriously hits me emotionally. A masterclass. Love seeing first time reactions to Eddie playing live.
Eddy and his brother Alex were classically trained
Ianists and won some competitions. Eddy talked about getting in trouble with the piano teacher when he asked Eddy to turn the sheet music for him as he played. Turns out that Eddy was guessing when to turn the pages, he could not read music. RIP Edward Van Halen
“These are real rock stars.” You, sir, are 100% right on the money. Rock n roll!!
Eddie and Stevie played THROUGH their SOULS... you can feel the energy they poured into their music. Making a guitar play isn't the hard part, letting out your soul and listening to it SING back to you, THAT'S Special.
I’ve been trying to tell everybody this for almost 50 years! First time I heard them in 1977, I was like what in the hell is this?!
i was 15 and sitting stage right the first of two nights they filmed it in New Haven, CT. still get chills listening to it now. peace brothers and rip eddie
Respect for the respect shown! I cannot imagine how much his brother, son and family miss him, but, along with them the entire world is robbed of the musical genius that was Edward Van Halen. We will forever be at a loss.😢
Ever heard anyone make a guitar sound like a violin without a bow?😂
yes,ULI ROTH (who also created his own guitars)
plus he influenced EVH
It's called a swell, you hammer on the note (Use the fingers hitting the strings on the fret board to vibrate the string) and with your picking hand you turn the volume knob up and down in time with your notes. The slower attack(build up of the note) gives it the sound reminiscent of a cello. Eddy was an encyclopedia of variant techniques for playing guitar.
I went backstage in 84 in salt lake city utah and got to meet van halen what an honor
Watched him play this 5 months into their first ever tour in '78. I was four people deep right in front of him. All minds blown. Unforgettable moment. We knew he was something different.
You know it’s great by the smiles on your faces! He was a pure genius!
I read that Eddie, and his brother Alex shared a room growing up. Eddie would be practicing while Alex was getting ready for a date. When Alex got home 4 or 5 hours later, Eddie was still practicing.♥
I’m no Eddie, but I went to school for music, and there were several days that I put in looonnng hours. Between composition, transcribing what I was writing, then practicing to fine tune-12 hours easy. I regularly missed lots of meals, ordered delivery (although my parents paid for a meal plan), and played into headphones as my musician roommate slept with his own on.
When the drive to create is there, it takes hold and won’t let go.
Th tap master he didn't need a pick
He was and still is the best!
This Eruption solo was on their first album released in 1978. They had been performing it at backyard parties before then when I was a teenager in Pasadena California. I got to see their 78 farewell show at the Pasadena Civic and one final time when they played at the US Festival in 1983. In every show Eruption was the highlight of the evening and just got better every time. It's fun to watch a new generation discover them all over again. Eddie was the guitar GOAT.
I’ve been listening to Van Halen since day one and all these years later I’m still blown away and in awe at King Edward’s guitar playing.
This Van Halen tour was in 1986 in support of their first album with Sammy. Their live video was filmed two nights in a row in New Haven, CT. They edited the final take from the two nights filmed. I had the pleasure of being at both of those shows. Eddie was phenomenal to watch. We were on the floor first few rows both nights. I caught one pick from Eddie and my buddy got a towel from Michael Anthony. The energy in these two shows was unbelievable. Sammy was keeping the crowd into every song due to the filming of the videos. Great memories! RIP Eddie
This is what's referred to as GOD MODE!!!!!!! EVH is a LEGEND!!!!! R.I.P. Brother 🤘😎🤘🙏🇺🇸
Respect for giving EVH the Respect!!!
I was fortunate enough to watch him doing this live multiple times. Their concerts were fantastic and when Eddie would start his solo the excitement in the arena was amazing. We knew we were watching greatness.
Came to America after WWII with his family. Couldn't speak English at the time. Built his own guitars and never learned to read music... There's a interview with him on the tube, "what it means to be an American with Eddie Van Halen". He explains everything. It's a good watch. He was a classically trained pianist as a child and they brought the piano across the ocean with them when they moved to America on a ship
Eddie came in the 60's, not after WWII.. he was born in the Netherlands in 55. Technically after WWII, but not right after
@@johnhoran888 the 60's was after WWII
@@silverfiste makes him seem older than he is . WWII ended in 45
He made the violin sound by turning the reverb (echo) up and moving the volume knob on his guitar on and off. Pure Genious
If you like that sound no one does it better then DT Symms doing a Paganini piece check out on you tube hands down the best guitar sounding like a violin
Makes the guitar sound like a violin.. epic!
Have thoroughly enjoyed this reaction. So happy the younger generation is getting to experience his awesomeness. Thank You for making an old woman's day. Much Love and peace to you and your family❤
Resp in paradise, Eddie. We’ll miss you and your talent forever. Thanks for your legacy!
I love how you all came together faces forward ready to listen.
This video brought me so much joy. To watch the faces and hear the very real insightful reactions of these beautiful young people only reaffirm something that I’ve known since I was a kids. EVH IS THE KING.
Was blessed to see him several times live and he mesmerized the crowd every time. VH is the soundtrack of my youth and Eddie was a guitar god ❤️
He didn’t invent two hand tapping but after he discovered it started using more than anyone else a lot as part of his playing and got identified with it more.
At the beginning when they played clubs,a small part of this was Eddie's warmup before going on stage. Recording this on their debut album Eruption(all in one take, no do overs) led into another song.Eddie loved to experiment it grew from there 1978-2015.A smile never left his face
Not true. The solo was engineered by Ted Templeman and when Eddy heard the playback the next day he got pissed and then told Ted to play it back again. The way that 'song' appears on the album is not Eddy. He told Ted "Now I have to learn it." He went on to say that the audience would be missed if he didn't play it just like on the album. That's how his music is, what you heard on the album, CD or digital download, you heard it exactly the same, live in concert
His playing in the 9 minute area sounds like a violin, I never noticed that before.
Enjoyed the hell out of the shows when I saw Van Halen. Always worth the money.
He didn't invent "finger boarding" (tapping, hammer on's&off's) as it was a technique that had been around for a long time and others had used it before (see Jimmy Hendrix) .. but he did popularize it and many Many people see him as the OG of this style. So you are not alone in this belief.
Saw Van Halen live in 1980 on their "Women and Children First" tour at 'Rocklahoma' in Norman, Oklahoma. LoL!! Seeing David Lee Roth pick up a joint off the floor of the stage (people would just throw them on stage!! I mean a LOT of them) and say "What's Thisssssss???" and proceed to light it up!!!! Those were the days!!! LoL!!
Thanks for the Reaction!!
They may have “tapped” but no one was tapping like Ed before he did it. He is the OG of his style. No one played guitar like him until after he did it. Of course he had influences like every guitarist but he reinvented the way people would approach the guitar for generations to come. He “popularized” tapping because he did it like no one else. When eruption came out, no one had heard anything quite like it before. That’s why eruption is considered one of the most influential guitar solos of all time.
@@thatsamazin- Vittorio Camardese check him out n get back to me
Hendrix never tapped and none of them actually composed music with it. It was basically just a magic trick and nobody cared and Eddie didn't learn it from anybody. He discovered it himself.
@@d.a.w.975 Look, Eddie himself said that he did not come up with that. He said other guys (ie Jimmy Page) had been doing it but he thought it was cool so he worked out how to do it for Eruption.
And Yes, Hendrix did some 2 handed hammer ons....granted it was for like only a couple notes....
@@d.a.w.975 Ritchie Blackmore said Jimi tried tapping n did at it a gig on 10th January 1969 at the Tax Free jam
VH1. summer '78. cassette tape. VW Rabbit. Storey Ave. SICK!
I grew up jamming to Van Halen in the late 70's and I love them so much! I didn't get to see them live in concert but I would have loved to! R.I.P Eddie
Eddie was actually playing slow in this concert. Some of his work is so fast that chords sounds like they are on top of each other.
Ok you tremolo pick like that and then beat the shit of the fretboard on the mean street part! The guy is the goat!!
Saw him three times and miss him even though I never met him. The greatest ever. EVH king 👑 for ever. ❤❤😢
Smile on my face through this entire video!!!!
Small note: Eddie didn't invent finger boarding or 'tapping' as it's generally knowb. It's actually goes way back. BUT he did perfect the technique make it his own and and bring it into rock&roll. He did a lot of very unqieu things with his guitar, like tricking out his volume knob so he could shift the volume up and down at twice the speed, which is how he gets the 'violin' sound.
This in the middle of an entire concert…saw it myself and it was glorious! ❤😊❤RIP EVH.
No, toward the end. Don't argue I saw them 33 times!
@@jehudavis5422 I’m not arguing… might of been the weed talking😂
I was present for this solo more than once over the years. I saw them live on the 5150 tour, their first with Sammy Hagar. It was amazing to see how this huge raucous crowd was brought to a standstill in unison to pause and appreciate the greatness of EVH. RIP, Edward.
"How'd he get this good?!" I figure he played on that 'second-hand guitar until his fingers bled!"' 🤣 (Sorry for the call-back to my generation, teen in the 70's.) He was the master of the 'hammer-on' and the 'pull-off', I'll give him that!
Seen Van Halen /Van Hagar 6 times in their prime. Wouldn't change it for the world ❤
5:47 EVH did not invent “finger boarding” (actually called tapping), but he did popularize it in the late 70’s and 80’s and took it to another level.
The drummer is Alex Van Halen, Eddie's brother. And they're both from Amsterdam Netherlands
Ladies & Gentlemen .... you witnessed the Greatest Guitar Player Of All Time !
.... I'm going to have to agree 👍
Yep
Hardly
he was great for his time. since then though he was surpassed by many current players whom he likely influenced, in fairness. Larry bird is not the goat 3 point shooter, evh is not the goat guitar player. with no disrespect to either gentleman or the poster
I have seen Van Halen too many times. Every single time was awesome mesmerizing. It is like kind of like watching Angus Young AC/DC on the guitar. Eddie, you know my guy. What can you say Eddie is the best in the world. He will always be the best. No matter how you slice it still can't get over. He's gone. Still can't stop crying 3 years October 6th 2024 it's coming up. They should do something special. A shout out to everybody, the family. She do something special. Really all his great music. Oh my God still kind of stunned he's gone but he's never going to be forgotten. Never not down here where I live in South Florida. Big 105.9 play us all year Rock. Rest in peace, Eddie
The way I understand it. Michael Jackson only had one guitarist in mind when working on Beat It. When Eddie came in, and heard it. He had ideas that Michael liked, and was happy that eddie was that interested in collaborating with him. The guitar work on Beat It is Classic EDDIE.
Don't forget Luke played on that too
I can't believe my eyes seeing Jay and Sister with Cartier Family. Britishs react with Americans awesome . God bless u all. You are doing great in ur channels. I'm so happy 😊 to see u all together. God bless 🙌 you all.
one of the greats that made the 80's awesome
Great video and a great reaction! So cool to see you and you and your friends discover Eddie and Van Halen. I got to see Van Halen live 3 times! Just unbelievable incredible experiences!!!
He didn't invent finger boarding; he Revolutionized it! Love seein' my Boys in @TheOfficialCartierFamily introducing people to "Metal" 🤘🤘
This is always fun to play. It has a lot of interesting improvisation to explore on the guitar. VH is the tap master🤘
I saw these guys in 79 on thier first tour. They killed it !
I was front row and center for this concert New Haven ct live without a net. I was 17 blew the skin off my face 😶
srv and Eddie are both in top 5 of all time, so yeah, they be Guitar Gods
Him and Gary Moore
I'm diggin that theater room!
Now, that's not normal. That's an hysterical comment while they watch the best rock guitarist ever who reinvented how to play the guitar. I especially love Eddie's fills, putting his guitar where there used to be silence; especially on Sammy's, There's only one way to rock - same 1986 show as this solo, and they opened with that song. And yes, Eddie had hammer pants before hammer!
Love the vids you make. Music brings everyone together. We're all the same color on the inside, sometimes we have to close our eyes and have the music remind us of that! Keep up the great work.
Frankenstein was a creature of creation by Eddie. It was two different Guitars put together and play 1 Octave Down for effects. Self taught
A tremendous talent !
Another kind of 'frankenstein' song by Edgar Winter try that ?
its bangin wild unbelievable
Jimmy Hendrix was one of Eddie's guitar influencers, Eddie played around a lot with the sounds a guitar could make. One of the songs Van Halen does uses a drill on the guitar strings to create another different sound effect. Stevie Ray Vaugh was mentioned, he is very good and I think you should also check out Jeff Healy of the Jeff Healy band.
He was an accomplished piano player and couldn’t even read music. He just memorized everything.
MOZART!!!!
Eddie was very humble too - when he was asked what its like being the best guitarist in the world he said "I don't know you'll have to ask Alex Lifeson from Rush"
Eddie was asked, how does it feel to be the best guitarist in the world? "I don't know, what did Roy Clark say " ? Check out Malaguena by Roy.
Seen them in 81, great show!
Eddie and his brother didn't speak English when they first moved to America so they just stuck together and perfected their craft
And he always had a smile on his face when he played, you could always see his love for the guitar. 🥰
I was able to see Van Halen in the early 70s in Southern California (several times) and met the brothers when they were teens. Really nice guys !even Dave)
The Cartier family brought me here
Jayflex and his lady made me subscribe
🙏
With Frankenstein. A guitar he built from other guitars and modded himself. He didn’t invent tapping he said he saw Jimmy Page do a rudimentary version of it. But he did perfect it.
I think you summarize Eddie by saying he's someone who never stopped asking "What if?" with regards to the guitar and his music.
Amazing!! Like the guitar is part of his body.
OMG! I’m in shock! I have followed both of your channels from the beginning ❤️🙏🏼❤️🙏🏼❤️
It’s amazing to watch people react to this for the first time, especially when I saw this back in the 80s.
Just imagine, he did those solo's practically every concert Vane Halen did back then. This one is about the only full version on RUclips of just one of the 100's he did over the years back when they toured. Saw him do this type solo twice a year here in Connecticut, one at the "now gone" Hartford Colosseum and the "now gone" New Haven Colosseum.. Oh the bands that came to town back then!!❤ Wouldn't take back amoment of my early years!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ❤
He died of a stroke at age 65, a complication of throat cancer, surrounded by loved ones.
RIP GOAT!! Edward F@#King Van Halen!! 🎸
he didn't invent tapping but he perfected it!
His son is just as good and started a band called Mammoth. Wolfie is VERY talented.
We love Wolfgang!
Hey it was great to see you guys ( and a beautiful woman ) have a righteous time listening to EV. I watched it all the way through , and you made this 60+ white boy from Chas'n SC smile. Y'all rock 👍.
I❤your reaction 2 this, it was freakin great. I❤watching people react 2 his solo, Eddie was 1 of a kind. RIP Eddie! You may be gone but you will NEVER be 4gotten. Much❤
The looks on your faces? That’s exactly what we looked like 45 yrs ago hearing & seeing this for the first time. I was 15 when I saw VH for the first time in concert. I skipped school (for the first time in my life) to be at the front of the line to get tickets (cause that’s how we did it back then, no internet). I had to take my (younger but bigger) brother with me to the concert, otherwise my mom wouldn’t let me go. Eddie was a force of nature. He was a virtuoso. Music and specifically the guitar, were *part* of him. RIP EVH. 🤟
He is in my top 5 Eddie,Jimmi,Terry,Stevie,and Eric
I watched this on VHS video as a 13yo boy and wondered and wanted the world to see this.. its amazing to see the next generation appreciate the genius that is Eddie Van Halen... Thank you guys and Thank you Eddie RIP pure greatness.. "thank god someone was there to film this" too right man
As a lady from the 80s I LOVE your reaction to my favorite guitarist!👍💯
He definitely was an innovator. Was lucky to see him live. Had he quit them cigarettes he may still be with us. And for clarity he started on drums n his brother Alex started on guitar n they switched instruments and the rest is history as they say.
