I think it's sort of sweet. I mean to be fair it is unusual for a band to be named after a lead guitarist (note we don't have a band called Sambora!). It is of course telling in a very nice way that despite the attention-grabbing antics of the exceptionally talented ham sandwich that is DLR (said with love) they spent a lot of time "accidentally" commenting on the inescapably exceptional talent of EVH. It all comes out in the wash! I find it refreshing that they aren't doing a deep dive, it's just an honest take from a place of genuine well-meaning curiosity. Cool.

Eddie was reluctant to do the gig because he and the rest of the band agreed never to do solo projects/gigs. However while his bandmates were out of town he agreed with producer Quincy Jones to do the solo on three conditions. 1. He would never get credited for the work because he didn't want the other members of Van Halen to know. 2. He didn't get paid because it was done as a favor and all he wanted in return was a case of beer. 3. He asked Michael to teach him how to dance. And there you go guys!! A bit of music history!! *And as I wrote that last point, I just remembered my dance recital back in '97... Music really does awaken the memory as well as the soul. Love to all 😊💙

I'm so glad you posted this! As soon as I heard the news I told Alexa to play "Jump" by Van Halen and as I was listening I hoped that someone would "tell the twins" they need to hear it, so you two have warmed my heart again. RIP Eddie and thanks for adding so many great riffs to the soundtrack of my life. 🎸💜

Lord, I was a toddler, when it came out. But then good stuff isn't forgotten the next year. I fear though, that Jump is the only song most people remember, since it's- honestly- overplayed. Not a Van Halen, nerd myself, but Jump problably wasn't the best choice in this case. A fun song though. For focus on Eddie, I personally would have chosen Eruption.

Eddie was like a modern day Mozart. As others have said, that’s his brother, Alex Van Halen on drums. This band was lightning in a bottle: the voice and showmanship (not to mention athletic ability) of lead singer David Lee Roth, and very talented bass player and vocalist Michael Anthony. They changed rock ‘n roll with their style, sent it in a direction that never would have been possible without them.

Van Halen invented the entire 80's hair band genre; the music, the hair, the outfits, the stage show, the preferred instruments, all of it.

@@cogitus73 I agree. We bluegrass musicians certainly know the importance of trailblazers. I love Bryan Sutton, Jens Kruger and Flatt Lonesome, but I definitely have respect for Bill Monroe, Lester Flatt and Earl Scruggs. I've also heard very technically adept musicians who were masters of their instrument but couldn't seem to make music that was acoustically pleasing to the ear. I believe that being able to combine instrument mastery with good sounding music is what makes someone the "GOAT," which is why I place Steve Vai and Eddie Van Halen in that category. Hendrix made great music, but as a guitar player I can recognize what's technically difficult and what isn't, and Hendrix never played anything that complex. Neither did Clapton or Page. I found that the only reason people seem to think they're "the best" is because of recognition bias. Nearly everybody has heard of Jimi Hendrix, but not that many people have heard of Steve Vai.
