Eddie Van Halen was the best friend I never met...R.I.P.

[MayweatherjrWONandsoTrump]

R.I.P. Eddie, the news was as bad as if it was a high school old friend left. You were there with me and my friends all those surfing days down in Puerto Rico from 1980 to 1995, you were with me during my University Years, you were with me while serving in the US Military for 24 years, now my 11 years old Daughter listens to you. I will love you as my family always Eddie.

[DarthVader-egjm]

Anyone who saw Van Halen as a teen or young adult will remember the days when we didn't have internet or cellphones Life was easier back then. It feels like losing my best friend in high school.

[dannymiles]

His sound, his tone, it is so ferocious, yet so measured and exactly precise.
We are all so blessed to have lived at the same time as him.

[rodneygarrett]

the opening riff for aint talking bout love is one of the best ever!!! still get chills when i hear it! RIP Eddie!

[ShyMusic]

It's hard to believe he's gone.

[AceOfClubsHUN]

Eddie, when you reach Heaven, play this for Saint Peter. Rest in peace, you magnificent son of a gun.

[LrdsWrk]

Eruption/Ain’t Talking Bout Love was actually the sequence he wanted on the 1st album and the way it dropped on the greatest hits

[SacCarScene]

RIP my man you were the greatest and there will never be anyone like you.

[JohnDoe-gkok]

Thank God that Eddie was able to pull it together after 2004, a very dark period in his life. His beautiful playing from 2007 through 2015 was the perfect bookend to his amazing career. People need to realize that what they are watching here reflects his recovery after his initial cancer diagnosis and years of alcohol abuse. RIP Eddie. You may be gone, but your music and influence on guitar players will forever.

[allendean]

The silence of the crowd during cathedral is just incredible. We are have such reverence for this incredible innovator. Thank you, Ed. Rest in piece.

[johnroussel]

You can find a lot of imitators on youtube but this guy is a once in a lifetime talent. Nobody else compares

[michaelluca]

Look at Wolfie just smiling from ear to ear when his Dad runs over to his mic and they sing together. You can tell he loved his Dad so much and was so proud of him. How much fun would that be to play with your Dad. Life comes full circle.

Best guitar intro I have ever heard, from thousands.

[WeLuvx]

At one point in EVH’s solo, the entire audience didn’t make a sound... now that’s respect for EVH’s mastery.
In the mid 80’d I saw VH twice and once in then once w/ SH.
Sadly, DLR is just a shell of his former genius. DLR defined what a Rock’s Frontman should be.
God speed EVH.

[alisonb]

I just love the way he holds and cradles his guitar and how he smiles as he plays. That was what got me as a teen. David Lee Who??? It was all about Eddie. His playing kind of put me in a trance. I was never one to enjoy a guitar solo until he came along. You couldn't look away. When musicians talk of the music "flowing through them" I only ever saw that with Eddie. It was so clear. It literally flowed between he and his beloved guitar. I can imagine as an awkward pre-teen him spending hours on hours with his friend Mr. Guitar. They just became the best of friends. Literally. He is/was the Kobe Bryant of guitarists. The book Koby wrote about "Thank you Basketball" is how I imagine Eddie was about his guitar. God I miss him. I feel for the troubles and tribulations he went through and know he is with God and the heavens are full of Brown Sound!

[ellenlewitt]

I played-or shall I say, tried-to play this song and solo all day today. I miss him. What an innovator. Blessings to his son and family.

[guitarguru.]

Eddie’s on in this one. When he’s in the zone and not fucked up, there’s none like him.

[ianmckenzie]

The man the man hands down just walks out and blows everyone in attendance away and simply loves what he does! A true musician that loves to entertain! Miss you, Ed, from the land down under!😢

[ClanClaudius]

I enjoyed this up to David Lee Roth started singing, that was enough for me. Stay retired David. Rip Eddie, a true legend and innovator.
