I’ve watched this video over 100 times. I don’t think I’ve EVER seen a guitar solo this amazing. Greatest guitarist of all time don’t argue w me. You can tell besides the few snippets he’s taking from his songs he’s just messing around havin a good time like playing in ur basement when nobody is watching and he’s making breathtaking music. Like there’s no way he rehearsed this. This is guitar on expert expert expert difficulty and he does it effortlessly and flawlessly. What makes this even better than it already is is, back then, the internet didn’t exist. This wasn’t even written in music books. He made ALL of this himself. It’s absolutely unbelievable

The solo was so heavy, even Eddy knew his guitar needed a smoke.

A player like this comes along once in a lifetime!

Literally cried my eyes out when I heard on the radio he passed. Then they played unchained and I cried some more. Best guitarist ever

Do you know why Eddie smiles so much while he’s playing? Because he knows he’s Eddie Van Halen.
-
I envy people who can say: "I was there."

I can't count how many times I've listened to this. Seriously, did Eddie even realize how transcendently good these performances were during this era? They're so organic and fluid, while also being perfect note for note 😮
