The king is dead. Long live the king.
Hey everyone, its your good buddy Uncle Ben Eller. This week, we lost a legend; the man who reinvented guitar and scorched the landscape of rock music with a smile on his face: Eddie Van Halen. We all know him, we all love him, we were all influenced by him (or influenced by someone who was influenced by him... he's your favorite guitar players' favorite guitar player!); but why DO guitar players like Van Halen?!
This is the hardest and easiest video i've ever made; easy because you don't have to even try to find reason why we love him: his unmistakable signature tone, his use of effects, his amazing signature gear, his rhythm and lead playing, his songwriting, and of course that tapping... he did it ALL! I wouldn't be here making videos and playing guitar if not for the guy!
But its the hardest for 2 reasons; for one, it means he's gone, and we'll never get to hear his NEXT creative breakthrough. And two, because how can i possibly pay tribute to one of the most monumental figures in music history? The best i can do is share my love of his music, his incredible playing, his unbelievable groove, and hopefully inspire another generation of young players to have their minds erased by tracks like Eruption.
In this video, i'll break down some of the things that make Eddie magic to me, all the while playing a host of riffs and licks from the entire Van Halen catalogue. I hope you enjoy it.
