I've started listening to them again for the first time in ages. Any fans? IMO Eddie Van Halen is the greatest guitarist of all time. Regardless of what the Hendrix, Clapton, Page fans think.

he is a great guitarist ...
i like van halen

they are going on tour this summer with sammy hagger on vocals

cool band

^yup

I only know Jump- it is one of the songs that just sums up the '80's for me. Not saying he isnt a great guitarist but not the best

Kate xx

Yes, they are back together with Hagar now. I never really liked them, however.

van halans finger tapping style was way before his time
go listin to eruption and then say he was not the best in the 80s

^yep
that is an amazing solo

he's very good.

but i wouldn't say the best

that could go for the band as well

Jump is idd very good

the BEAT IT solo is the most famous guitar solo, and the best 1. van halen did it

smoke on the water

Freebird is the most famous guitar duel
