Van Halen Eruption Guitar Solo 

OMG THANKS FOR THE PIN!

​@@jbmusic1118 You *deserved* it🙂 _Thousands_ of peoples asking _always_ which part(s) has which name. That will be clear from now. Thanks to You👍🙌

Nice

Van Halen truly left us with something that will never die, even after 35 years the comments are still active, a godlike genius still inspires us R.I.P Eddie Van Halen

Do you know what 9:28 is called

Auronil Chatterjee LMFAOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

so true

I see. Some Bengali sense of humor.

You were fearfully and wonderfully created by the Living God in His image to live forever. Do not dare to compare yourself with any lifeless thing that appears and disappears. Every human being is twice belongs to God the Father, as He not only created us but also carried us our sins and died in our place when we disobeyed and dishonoured Him, so that we may live with Him forever. Let everything that has breath praise Jesus Christ- The Lord of lords & King of kings !

Berry Jeyasingh bruh, I like religion and all but if this is not a joke, w h y 🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸 also he is a right, that cig is better then me, lol

This is one of the best comments I’ve ever seen

What an Asian

@Jamie Lee what? he doesn’t want his purchase to go to waste, that’s what most asians do, you can ask me, I am one Am I not allow to joke about my own demographic?

And sometimes it holds his ciggies

@@notemusic he isnt asian?

High as a kite

Yeah bruh why does he do that in like every single concert?, lol

I guess that's me. I saw this tour/show in 1985. It was my second concert ever. Kiss Asylum tour was my first. Who really appreciates something like this until it's gone. It's kind of like me speaking with someone who saw Led Zeppelin live.

Best comment!

You're gonna get 1k likes

Poor Frank

Whoa, slow down and use lube m8

Since he built me up*

Eddy was build his own guitars, so: He knews what nicotine dosen his guitars needed

I fucking Loled

@@mitchellturnbull3988 Still, after than beautiful show, that guitar needed a smoke! Damn, Eddy was the shit!

Clever 🤣 🍸👍

Best comment, by far!🤣🤣

Eddie never claimed he invented tapping. There were other guitar players who performed the tapping way before Eddie did it. It's just that Eddie performed tapping that no one has ever done before: on the electric guitar.

what rules?

He's 2nd.... To The GOAT 🐐 Jimmi

On żyje kurwa!

​@@MadMiktheBull1 no he recently died 2023

I like how you use words --- it conveys a real passion

They were even better live! He played to me and a friend, we went to behind stage seats that they didn't open, because then Van Halen toted these massive speakers and stacked them almost to the ceiling. We looked into his eyes and watched his fingers fly, it was awesome and the same night David was jumping higher than we ever saw anyone with leather pants jump, all the while with swords in each hand! Not to mention David's acoustic version of Ice Cream Man was terrific as well. They said Eddie didn't sing, but We saw him singing on Jamie's Cryin.

Ja mam już 54 lat i wciąż wracam do Van hallen

It's a multitude of solos. Medley.

The irony being "Van Halen" literally translates to "From Hell" 😅😅😅

Hahaha 🤣😂🤣😂🤣

R.I.P EDDIE FROM BRAZIL

What a legend. RIP

Dude invented the 80's rock band guitar solo with this.

For real, Once in a lifetime👍

He's high as a rocket can go, ofcourse he smiles, he's on good stuff. 😆🇳🇱

Nice words

So true, kid with a guitar.

St peter: what was your contribution to humanity? EVH: I brightened the hearts of billions of people with the music I hear in my heart. St peter: show me EVH: I don't have... St peter: *snaps fingers a guitar appears in his hands with a marshall double stack behind him

I read this in 7:25 and look at screen, his grinning bruh✌. RIP EVH🤘

😂

Floyd Rose

@@LevinsThe Dad why you hate so much with a girl named *Rose*? BECAUSE IT MAKES ME REMEMBER THE FUCKING FLOYD ROSE THAT MESSED UP MY SHOW BECAUSE 1 STRING SNAP, THEN BOOM MY GUITAR FEEL USELESS

Axl Rose lol

R U SAME GUY WHOSE SISTER IS ELEANOR AFTER PAUL MCCARTNEY'S ELEANOR RIGBY? JUST WONDERED!

jimi hendrix

I got to agree with you my friend. I've seen them so many times live myself. I live in South Florida. Every time I see any play now it's like I cry like a little baby. Can't help it. I'm 57 years old. I love Van Halen. They came out 10 February 1978. Actually before that they were Mammoth 1972. So you know it is what it is. They changed their name right before they had their first album. David Lee Roth went to Eddie and told him to change the name to Van Halen so they did. The rest is history you don't. He's so mesmerizing to watch on that guitar. You can't take your eyes off of him. You actually just cry because he's so great.. in happy tears! Well I'm not religious but I guess Eddie is playing for God now. What can I say the world's lost and unbelievable guy and guitars the best in the world besides Hendrix rock on people

Spot on

Tosin Abasi

Good for you I guess. I was so bored of watching/listening to this that I only could watch about half way through before quitting.

The greatest instrument

But so damn fun once you get it

@@sansthedrummer And once the blisters heal.

Yep sure is

to everyone who is a guitarist, this is still hard

I am a guitarist. Can confirm.

Copied Hahaha

hilarious but true for me too lol

Too fuckin funny!!!!!

Hahahaha

I know how to play this song on guitar

No ya didn't.

honestly not even a huge rock person but i can appreciate how incredible this performance was, especially for the time. having played various instruments before but never guitar, i for real got some chills watching. can only imagine what that was like in person

He knew exactly how good he was; the groupies swarmed him and he nailed a hotter chick each night.

But who will play it like him?

Rebecca Jones just play the live recording. Nobody else alive is touching this level of wizardry.

@@rebeccajones4stories Someone from Korea.

🤘🏻😔

F*ckin A!

Dude tell me this isnt real

This is the best tribute

Flame Drop I wish it wasn’t, check wolf’s Twitter

We lost a true legend today

Same here...

fr man seems like this vid dropped yesterday, i remember when i was 13 trying to play this shit lmao im 19 now.

​@@wideopenmusic4160did you work it out?

Welcome aboard brother!

Listen to dimebag Darrel too, Eddie buried one of his guitars with him

Maybe there's hope

Damn true

I could only imagine the feeling

Feeling like the president < feeling like eddie van halen

I think he is smiling because he was drunk actually 🤣🤣

excellent

Rock In Peace

Legend.

Rip

RIP

I can’t believe it :(

Can I repeat the first wish?

@@mq5731 just go ahead and play the video again ^^

“Nah this one’s on me”

Absolutely!

We are fortunate in that for sure

Agreed. Wish we had access to all this music and videos back in the 70s 80s and 90s.

Yep! Especially for those of us who couldn't be there for whatever reason.

@@mcrchickenluvr f

Hey he brought joy to untold millions. He also kicked the drugs and lived a full life, just like Alice Cooper. Sure we can miss him but it's better to celebrate his accomplishments!

god knows it needed one after that pounding by eddie

Smoking isn't cool. Stay in school, kids.

@@Kyle-gw6qp it’s a joke my guy Eddie Van Halen and all these other guitar hero’s probably graduated school

I know randy Rhoda was classically trained and he smoked a lot too apparently.

@@Kyle-gw6qp Actually, smoking is cool as fuck, but extremely, and let me say that again, EXTREMELY bad to anybody health. To this day i still do not understand why science comes so far and they didnt make a fucking ciggar that dont fuck up our body so badly. So, yeah smoking is very very bad for you, but still cool as fuck.

For real

I don’t believe😢😢😢😢😢😢

Right on R.I.P. 💔😭

100%, invented a whole new way of playing guitar, RIP Eddie.

Long live Rock ‘n’ Roll

You mean in hell, there is the real party

@@ixk01santiagosinapsis53 that is very true

He rocked out like this because he knew he wasn't going to heaven.

God is like "I'm bored of angels singing and trumpets playing... Eddie! Come ere!"

Yeah, they drank like fools Eddie had some permanent damage from drinking too much. They drank 10-20 drinks a night. Party animals.

Clay i know, thats not cool. I’m just kidding

@@marcaopenas7329 It's true. He had some hip and back problems. It's good. I like to drink so I'm not putting an F minus on them. They liked to drink. But drinking is like mountain climbing, it can get you.

Clay i agree with you

@@marcaopenas7329 True story. I've always said I'd rather party and die at age 70 than live a boring, conservative live and live to be 90...alone.

Im trying too, but its too hard...

I’m trying and I’m getting there but it sure does cramp up my hands lol

😂😂😂🤘🏼

And I'm still practicing air smoke on the water. I'm so envious right now!

Lollll

Egyetértek🙂

People are stupid af 😅

Fr

haha, perfect

Never forget what he accomplished! 🤘🏻😔

Rip

RIP to an absolute legend in the music industry for his work of the guitar and how he changed the way it was played 🤘

May he Rest In Peace

Fuck yes!

Pour moi aussi, c'est un virtuose,avec une telle décontraction, pour lui c'est un amusement,et il a raison la musique est un une façon de s'amuser,et Eddie l'avait compris,il prenait sa au second degré, d'ailleurs dans un interview,il dit qu'il n'écoute pratiquement pas de musique,a part de la musique classique,et Clapton je crois, Eddie ne pensait qu'à s'amuser, d'ailleurs toujours le sourire,un mec bien,sans prétention,et pourtant il fait parti des meilleurs guitariste du monde,je le classé dans 10 premier, Hendrix pour son époque, Jimmy page également , sont intouchable,mais Eddie était unique dans son "trip"rip champion ❤️❤️✌️✌️

Beautiful comment

There is a god.

No that was all Eddie there is no god

@@MontourR yeah why discredit him like that

@@MontourR and you have no brain moron!

*True* Rest in peace brother😢

❤

Hugs and kisses our friend ❤

​@@pamallinder3287le plus grand guitariste de son temps

I spend 1.6 years playing my guitar (during lockdown) and another 2 vigorous years in my youth - with a 6-8 year hiatus before I picked it up recently again (1.6 year ago) and I'm just learning to tackle this beast of a monster. There is quiet an exceptional tutorial online by a guy called Mr. Tabs - I highly recommend you check his videos "Eruption Van Halen Cover | Guitar Tab | Lesson | Tutorial" It's quiet outstanding how accurately this man can play to EvH (and MANY of his other songs) I literally feel like he's channeling the spirit of Eddy when he plays (not to sound too much like a fanboy but he's quiet amazing). I'm practicing this song again (since I could play it but with horrific misaccuracy -- trying to figure out the pieces of the puzzle myself) but after giviing it a go again it really shows me what a freakin genius of a guitar player Eddie was and how respectable he IS in the guitar world because he too me won't ever die. Van Halen will always be around and we will always remember how he and the band changed the face of rock and roll history. 🤘🤘😁😁!!

This is hilarious 💀

But you have your own version don’t you?

nobody can copy perfection. NO. ONE

Sok brother none of us can either but it sure is fun to tap the shit out of the B String :)

Smoke on the Wat- GUITAR!

Jimmy Hendrex would be blown away?

Cigarettes gross killed him

Headstock*

I guess it was faster to throw his pick in the audience, when he switches to tapping, rather than stick it back onto his guitar where the sticky tape is holding all the other picks

A true master I would love to see anyone match that drunk or sober

Hehe it's good :)

You’ll miss 6 seconds

I’ll die 6 seconds early

@Boer he said he's joking

Boer people still use that? Ha

Not one of, THE BEST

Y e s

word!

That's a magical cigarette too, he throws it away at 1:25 and it magically reappears at his headstock at 1:48 ???

eric jaja think it’s the pick he throws

So does the guitar

baguil02 I hope it’s not a *minor*

Is it cause it got a good finger f'n?

Hopefully it’s not tuned to D, cause that’d be gay

You made.me.laugh for a good 5 minutes there 😂

Either way it got RAPED!!!

Hahahaha😂😂

LOL

that’s how you play like that

Its the other way round If u never put that thing down u can prolly play like that

@@axissilver4426 now listen here you little shit

I think it works the other way around

he could play like that because he never set that thing down

Got that right but you forgot to mention... Guitar playing at God level : Yep Got this shit

Literally the leader of an era of music

Feared? Wtf why?

@@alienduce6755 "fear that which you cannot best" -some philosopher, probably

I think he got better the drunker and higher he was

RIP

So devastating im broken by this he was my favorite guitarist love eddie rip Eddie 😭😭😭

Amen. Lol not.

Pretty sure the 1940s might have something to say about that...

Not just the tapping, how about that tremolo picking? Ridiculous

That's Frankie for you lol (short for Frankenstrat)

@@justicekreider2978 that’s not the original Frankenstrat. It’s his equally famous model the 5150. Not quite but basically as close as you can get to the original

It needs a cigarette after all that fingering.

That's what killed Eddie.

@@lokofaith LoL!!

Lithominium no

I highly doubt it. I'm curious to know what his taken on modern metal would be

Lithominium probably he would have added a few more frets for Van Halen if he knew

I like Trains I like ur profile picture

@@legitwizard1704 do I look like I care

Eddie after the show: What show?

eddie after the show: where my cigerattes?

700 likes short

😂😂

Eddy be like where my deoderant

Really?!?!

Imagine if he wasn’t

@@cinimodg0251 probably would've been a worse performance if he wasn't lmao

@@jadenshah probably true

Mean while Bieber cancelled a show cause he had an upset tummy and needed his mommy to console him

press F

without him, I don't know if I would have PanterA. I am beyond thankful for this man

Absolutely the best. The world has lost an innovative guitarist. Influenced so many musicians. God Bless and may you rest in peace.

i did

Thanks...

I did. This was the first video I got in mind when I knew he was gone.

Yup. RIP Eddie

Yes

It would have been like some mythical story some people wouldnt believe lol

@@danielcastaneda4356 lol true

One of there best ever in my opinion van halen never really sounded all that great live..... but here they killed it

We are so fortunate that filmographers had the presence of mind in the day to capture shows like this. Many of us who attended the shows took them for granted and had no idea what we were witnessing - one of the most revolutionary guitarists to hit the planet, but that he was indeed mortal.

They covered it in the genovea convention as a war crime not to capture this concert on film

😪They're both are in a better place than we are. But sad. My condolence.

@@Hazardteam I dunno if that's necessarily so. How can you be better to be separated from everyone who loves u? I hope for that to be the case tho. Very much so. Thank you for the empathy. It is kind of you kindness is in short supply on this here internet thingie. 😊 Best Regards my friend

Amen R.I.P. Eddie

we all gotta go man, but legends never die brother

Rest In Peace

RIP

Now he can shred it up with dimebag, cliff burton, vinnie paul.

Yes, like when they taped over the original moon landing videos!

AAAAMEN

Amen

Don't worry...first thing I put in my time capsule

Don’t worry I can play this perfect

@Xander Hyslop i think its a requirement ;)

Xander Hyslop right absolutely insane

@Party Van! maybe but he knows which notes they were. Most jacks offs cant replay the same riffs after the first time.

@Party Van! thats not always true. Most improve by any decent guitarist will still have roots in theory so they have something to go off of.

@Party Van! the difference between a guitarist and someone holding a guitar thats had practice.

his bandmates always to the time to molest groupies while Ed did his wanky shite solos. "Dont stop now, Ed, the drugs got me flaccid, we need more time hahah"

@@bobjones2041 What the fuck. Is this real?

@Obese Mongeese bob sounds like a wanky piece of shit himself. Wut do you think? Never take some jerk off in the RU-vid comments seriously

Soooooooo underrated comment.

@@bobjones2041 I'd like to see you perform better than this 'wanky shite solo'. Go fuck yourself.

One of my favorite comments about his passing.

No. They are about to play with him.

and Dimebag!!!!

And randy Rhodes

And Les Paul

Dude, it's a incredible solo but have some others that are better, Jimi Hendrix or Time By Pink Floyd for example.

@Mr. P it’s called an exaggeration Bud👍

its not solo its such a bullshit

@@tyler3362 stfu nigga

Limey Lemon so while I don’t agree with this man in that this is not a solo because it’s amazing, I feel as though even if one cannot do something they still have an opinion over wether or not the person who’s good at it is doing it well if you get what I’m trying to say. Like others can watch people that lay professionally in the nfl and have negative opinions on them, doesn’t mean that they need to be able to equate to the same level of skill.

Mcfly!!!!!

Marty ?

Marty, let's go back to the FUTURE ♥️

Chuck Van Halen Goode

I wish I could go back and spend a day with Eddie. That would honestly mean the world to me. He was the guy that made me pick up a guitar. Forever you will be remembered. Edward Van Halen. An absolute master at guitar. And He is the greatest guitarist to ever live period.

Indeed!.. Eddie Van Halen!.. F' man.. *tears*.. this solo tho'.. hell yeah!.. RIP Ed!
