With the devastating passing of Eddie Van Halen (he died yesterday at age 65), we found this amazing clip.
It’s the isolated guitar work of Eddie on 1984‘s “Hot For Teacher”…and it f’ing ROCKS.
When you listen to this…you feel like Eddie may no,t in fact, be human. Literally. He was either a guitar-slinging extraterrestrial or an actual Rock God…maybe both…or all of the above.
What we DO know…is that Eddie Van Halen is one of the greatest guitarists of all time. Check out the vid below for mind-melting, rock-and-roll goodness.
