Shocking news reached the music world today with the passing of Edward Van Halen.
He developed ground breaking jaw dropping techniques, which influenced countless
guitar players from back in the 70's until today, though not so much myself. While i
especially liked Van Halen's first record and even built a guitar vaguely designed after
his Frankenstrat i couldn't completely get warmed up with the band because of the
band members, who seemed to be constantly wound up coke heads. Nonetheless i
recently stumbled over "Eruption" again and have good fun fiddling with it.
Now today Eddie died after a long battle with throat cancer age 65. His wikipedia page
has already been updated ...
