[Eternal Guitar Hero] Van Halen’s Classic and Popular Songs

Van Halen, the American hard rock band whose name shines brilliantly in the history of rock worldwide.

Their Dutch band name comes from the surname of the brothers: Alex on drums and Edward on guitar.

Since their 1978 debut, despite several lineup changes, they have rewritten rock history with high-quality songs and outstanding performances.

Among them, guitarist Edward—better known as “Eddie”—was a charismatic figure who repeatedly created innovative playing styles, influencing countless guitarists not only in the rock world but beyond.

The great guitarist “Eddie,” often mentioned alongside the guitar god Jimi Hendrix, passed away on October 7, 2020.

As we pray for his repose, let us look back on Van Halen’s many classics, focusing on tracks that feature Eddie’s captivating guitar.
