Van Halen Eruption Guitar Solo (REACTION) I Feel Reborn! Great Performance! R.I.P. Eddie Van Halen!

[@shamelessgames9158]

It is so fun to watch peoples facial expressions as there brain tries to process it all . Eddie was the first at many new things and a true legend and KING of the hammer ons . I was lucky enough to catch Van Halen twice live in the 80,s and they were SO good ! Just awesome to see younger generations discover this man and his many talents .. RIP Eddie you will be missed Sir ! Great reaction !

[@ros4007]

Spread the word to your generation, may he never be forgotten and thank you for enjoying the best of my generation!

[@eddiebready23]

Most definitely Ros! I went to another dimension listening to this. What an incredible talent this man was. No words are necessary, he's just legendary!

[@traceyvane6780]

When you watch Eddie van Halen all you can say is Wow!!!

[@stevetracy2012]

The KING has spoken!!!!!

[@eddiebready23]

👏👏👏

[@warrenyoung4978]

It reminds me of the first time I heard him as a kid . Blown away was a understatement.

[@eddiebready23]

That's the truth. I was beyond blown away.

[@David-nb9fy]

There are no words for this. We’ll never see another one like him in our lifetime. RIP EDDIE.🙏

[@davekreitzer4358]

Sure glad you started paying attention , will be a life long asset ! You've been enlightened ! 😜

[@pipeman65]

I'm 63. Lucky to have see them twice in concert. Eddie didn't play the guitar, he toy'd with it... and it bent to his will. He was the God of guitar

[@eddiebready23]

You're definitely a lucky man! I wish I could have seen them in person. Eddie killed the guitar! 👏

[@sweetwilliam5150]

You never forget your first time. Thanks for the great react. RIP Eddie.

[@chadalac1428]

Brother he changed the rock world

[@JerryAttrick-c4s]

Eddie was just doing eddie things.... stuff of pure legends. R.I.P Eddie 😢❤

[@sarahelston5900]

You heard arguably the greatest guitarists Ever. I love Jimi Hendrix. Different ball game. Self taught He has patents on the GUITAR All guitar makers pot the pick ups now He discovered that. A true mad scientist He lived and breathed the guitar

[@bozeeke]

One of the best to ever do it. R.I.P.

[@eddiebready23]

I'm finding that out more and more. Incredible talent. 👏

[@cindya9572]

Eddie was an absolute genius on guitar. Not to be forgotten is that he was the major songwriter for their music, and was the keyboardist for the group as well, so watch for him playing the keyboards in his videos. Eddie played piano for years as a child before he started playing drums, and his brother Alex began playing guitar. They quickly exchanged instruments and the results are legendary. Check this one out from the same concert for Eddie on the synth and a good view of the other members Michael Anthony on bass and vocals, Sammy Hagar vocals and guitar, and Alex Van Halen on drums, and the excitement they bring.

[@eddiebready23]

I'll be sure to add this to my list. You're definitely right about Eddie. I am in awe of his ability to play that guitar 🎸 Thanks for the comment Cindy! 😁

[@Taylor-hu2no]

My friend, your ship just hit the VH iceberg. Check out their decades’ worth of music… like this tune. VH Foreva!

[@kdm71291]

I never get tired of seeing people react to this for the first time...and watching their mind get blown, haha!

[@eddiebready23]

It got me. I was lost in it. Just amazing. No other words.

[@wendeogden1930]

Me either! Everyone is blown away hearing this the 1st time. Brings back an era for me.

[@kenkonwick6660]

Ok there are pieces of 8 different VH songs in this solo, it's precise and amazing and just plain out of control brilliance that will never be equaled or surpassed. VH has a deep well of pure magic. U won't find a weak effort, either early stuff or the later stuff. Ignore the split Van Halen fans, half only liking David Lee Roth as lead singer, the other half ordering Sammy Hagar as the lead singer. Just get lost in the musical sauce, and each drop of sauce will satisfy ur appetite for excellence

[@eddiebready23]

I plan on getting lost in it. I was loving every second of this video. Thanks for the comment and for watching.

[@ilovemusicmovies1789]

That's Eddie's brother Alex on drums, who is phenomenal as well

[@johntaylor5652]

He was a Superhero! BTW Michael Jackson asked him to help him create a song and "Beat It" was born and Eddie played the Solo, rift and didn't even charge Michael. :) Thanks for the mind blown reaction!

[@frankmccollum1443]

Eddie B. Dude thanks for the great reaction. Glad you liked this. Im blessed to have seen this guy twice and he's No Shit.. he's real deal. Thank you bro!! RIP ED VH..10-6-20

[@eddiebready23]

Thanks for the comment Frank. I didn't know what to do the whole time I was watching this. Just amazing!

[@frankmccollum1443]

Eddie B. I have a few personal faves, from the Van Halen Live without a net concert, "Summer Nights", "Love walks in", "5150", "There's only one way to Rock" (the 5:38) version. And I believe on their next tour, a live performance of "Right now" the (6:49) version.. Vocals- Sammy Hagar Bass- Michael Anthony Drummer- Alex Van Halen Thee Edward Van Halen- guitar Ed and Alex are brothers..

[@michaelshields7777]

Believe it or not, Eddie was totally wasted during this performance, and when he was asked about it later, he had no recollection of doing it. He still killed that guitar solo!! My first time seeing Eddie was on the 1988 Van Halen Monsters of Rock Tour, when they came to Spokane, WA. Five bands in one day, with Van Halen headlining.

[@jackteppo9633]

Eddie VanHalen is to guitar solo like Neil Peart is to drum solos. R.I.P to both Great players of their craft.

[@davidoconnell1680]

Great reaction 👏. I saw them play in the 70's before they ever got a record contract or open for anyone and I was sold. I have mad respect for Jimmy and Stevie and Randy but you just watched the greatest Rock and Roll guitar player that's ever lived! RIP Eddie ❤

[@pfrancis7483]

Thank you for the great video and memories.

[@eddiebready23]

Thanks for watching Phillip! I was in another world watching this. Such an amazing artist. 👏

[@pfrancis7483]

@@eddiebready23 Miss the man, myself. Breaks my heart, his true loves were family, guitars, and cigarettes. Unfortunately, one killed him. Will share often and GBY again. Much appreciated.

[@chris61670]

You should start with their first Album fro m back in 78. You will definitely be blown away.

[@eddiebready23]

I think I will be too. This is just one song. I'm in store for a lot I imagine. Thanks for tuning in BigCountry! 👍

[@marcialynn6257]

in an interview years later he stated he has no recollection of this he was so high/ drunk if it wasnt on video he wouldnt know.. rip eddie.. your son just was nominated for a grammy:)

[@stabwound5091]

To me personally Eddie is a pioneer of the electric guitar. The Goat in my book. Check out the interview he did a few years before he passed to really get a grasp of what he did, in his own words!

[@tylerkay3]

Van Halen- ain't talking bout love, mean street, bottoms up, unchained, running with the Devil, etc etc etc etc.....

[@eddiebready23]

I did a reaction to Unchained! Bad ass song!

[@jaredmartin2230]

If you listen to beat it by Michael Jackson, Eddie Van Halen actually did the guitar solo on that song and he rearranged some of the guitar parts on that song

[@eddiebready23]

Seriously!? I had no idea about that. It definitely explains a lot. Eddie combined with Michael? No wonder the song is one of MJ's most iconic tracks! Thanks for that piece of valuable information bro. 👍

[@oscarsotelo8548]

Well Said You Just Saw the Greatest Guitarist That Ever Lived, no Disrespect to J Hendrix..

[@PeterOldschool]

He did this performance drunk as he had some stage fear about performing this solo. A later interview he said he didnt even remember doing this solo. Yea, thats him drunk, un fathomable talent... Sober would be beyond conceptualization.

[@stevent.keister1254]

There is only one Eddie You will never see this play ever again There is no other guitarist that can top him

I was a 15 year old kid when I first saw this concert on VHS video way back in 1986. And I was trying to get my girlfriend at the time into rock music specifically VH, when i showed her this solo she was convinced I was playing it at high speed, I couldnt convince her that this was Eddie at normal speed.

[@eddiebready23]

That's how legendary he is. His skills are Insane! When heard this, I literally couldn't believe what I was hearing. Mind blowing!

Check out their songs: Mean Street, House of Pain, Girl Gone Bad, Poundcake, Right Now and Dont Tell Me (What Love Can Do). 50/50 mix of songs with David Lee Roth or Sammy Hagar on vocals. Greetings from Poland 👍. PS. Their most popular song is for sure Jump from 1984.

I'll check those out. Shout out to Poland, thanks for watching.
