    One listen and the guitarist blew a hole in my mind! Who is this guy? It's Eddie Van Halen.

    I picked up a guitar about 12 months ago. And eddie has, and always was, one of my biggest inspirations for doing so. Coincidentally, I started learning Aint Talkin Bout Love only a week ago, and slowly getting there, its one of my favourite ever songs. Im only 24, but this song and Eddie's work, gives me a sense of nostalgia, which doesn't technically exist due to my age. That's how good he was, he created magic. Rest in peace Eddie. Saying your legacy will live on, will be an understatement 🤘

We could be sad, depressed mad at the world & put his music on and soon enough instant better mood. I hope many of you out there got to enjoy a Van Halen Concert and see Eddie play.

      The year 1979, the year I was introduced to the band "Van Halen". I remember it as if was yesterday, my brother handed me a cassette for my birthday. Van Halen? who the? what the?
      One listen and the guitarist blew a hole in mind! Who is this guy? It's Eddie Van Halen.
      Thank you Eddie for playing at all our countless keg parties and other endeavors over the years. You will never be forgotten
      Great guitarist never die, their riffs play on through the heavens and straight through the clouds. R.I.P my friend.

      Well. The people that thumbed down this aren't myself but probably accomplished guitarists who understand why Eddie was great and perhaps this compilation doesn't really capture the genius of Eddie. More like a fan making a video. Not a guitar player who knows.. Eddie is one of my heroes. But this video just captures the gimmicky aspects of Eddie. Not the deep cut stuff that influenced actual players. Tapping is the least impressive aspect of Eddie. He had a brother. Alex is one of the greats for drums. He's amazing and has style. They both helped to create each other. But to me Alex is foundation and Eddie is the glue.

    I was in Daytona Beach, Florida on vacation when I first heard about his passing. My husband had gotten sick off of seafood the night before, so he was napping at hotel room, so I I went cruising down by the boardwalk when i heard it announced on the radio. I absolutely lost it, and crying my eyes out while driving. People at the boardwalk and red light looked at me like I was crazy ! I had literally been playing Van Halen music all night the night before at the pool, and even posted 2 of their videos on a 70’s music Facebook group page, never realizing it was his last night here on earth. I hope he is looking down on us now, realizing how much he was adored and admired by millions of people, and smiling with that gorgeous grin that made me and so very many other females hearts melt ❤️❤️🙏🙏🥰🥰 R.I.P. Eddie, there will never be another even close to you !

    Eddie’s passing makes me think of how difficult to comprehend it must’ve been back in the day for admirers and lovers of classical composers such as Mozart and Beethoven, when these musical geniuses passed away.
    How the community came together to mourn.
    EVH was a modern genius. A Mozart of the fretboard.
    What a loss. So sad.
    He and his music, like that of other musical masters, lives on with us, each time we hit PLAY and turn the volume up.

The Sustain on some of the notes seemed impossible to replicate. I remember EVH fans would ponder for Years, just how he did Eruption and Eruption was played at A LOT of High school graduations. No one had seen anything like Eddie or his tapping. Great band and Great Memorys, thanks Eddie!! RH DSD

I have been a guitarist for over 40 years, and Eddie was one of the guys that transformed me from a casual to a serious player. He was an innovator and a groundbreaking pioneer of modern rock guitar. To all fellow players out there, raise your guitar in honor of Eddie, and if he has influenced you in any way, remember this when you are playing. God bless Wolfgang, Janie, and Alex during this painful time. RIP Legend.
