316 has to be the greatest noise to ever resonate onto another one's eardrum. in other words: it is the greatest guitar solo of all time played only by the King himself: Sir Eddie Van Halen.

In my opinion, this was his best solo performance, performed during the best live show of his career. I have the live dvd of this performance and I used to watch it over and over again. The amount of energy and heart the band brought to the stage is unprecedented

[@ZiddersRooFurry]

Agreed. I've seen thousands of his solos and while they were all amazing nothing measures up to the pure fun and joy in this pic. I think Eddie was at his soberest and happiest here. I suspect his son Wolfgang had a lot to do with it. He had a kid, he and the band were getting along great and his marriage was doing good, too. These were good times. Saw them on this tour and the solo was exactly like this that night, too. It wasn't like this was pieced together or overdubbed. Eddie was on top of his game.

[@beatmet2355]

nathan wind I went to see them, but mainly because Vince Neil was opening for them. I knew who VH was, but didn’t really listen to them, so I wasn’t real familiar with their music. I knew Eddies reputation, but I wasn’t aware of his greatness until he played his solo. WOWED 👍😄

[@udoschillings1490]

Yes! It was really great, they performed perfectly, the sound was abolute great. I´ll never forget this evening. The opening band, Little Angels were unbelievable! They were asked for encores!

When this video was made, Eddie had no idea that one day in the distant future, he would be playing this piece of magic with his son Wolfgang.

Just heard on Howard Stern show, from Craig Gass being interviewed, that this song originated when Valerie was pregnant with Wolfgang. EVH would play it on her belly. 316, Wolfie's birthday. Fantastic guitarist who will be dearly missed .

[@GeorgeZimmermen]

Not entirely true. Ed was playing that song as part of his solo years prior to Valerie being pregnant. Go watch live without a net which is from 1986. 5 years before wolf was even born. The song was written way before but he dedicated it to his son and used it as a lullaby

[@Bikeslinger]

Back then, it was all about the album release and live tour. The only way to hear it was to buy it and the only way to see was at a venue. No internet no Spotify and no KZbin. What you SAW is what you got. No way to record it live except in your mind. I’ll NEVER forget the first time I heard EVH play live. I swear I thought he was from another planet, ESPECIALLY when he played the part that starts at 6:54 The first time I heard that, he played it note-for-note at the Texxas Jam at the Cotton Bowl in Dallas, Texas in 1986. My brothers and I just looked at each other stupefied, like, “There’s no way he’s human…” TOTALLY blown away in every sense of the word. It’s like we were trippin balls without the drugs We had no idea what was coming. We had only heard Eruption up to that point because, again, there was no video evidence of anything. You had to go see it. And seeing it live for the first time is something I’ll never forget

Takin away WAY too soon. Would have been awesome to see the total reunion with everyone including Mikey Sammy & Dave actually happen As was talked about and in the works before Eddie got too sick. That woulda been a great closure to the Van Halen legacy. Sadly it never came to be . It definitely still seems so unreal that Eddie has passed . I’ve binged on VH music and interviews, whatever I see with Eddie . I’m glad I own lots of VH CDs and still own T-shirts’ and posters from way back in 80s-90s. - Eddie was the greatest guitar player of our time IMO.
