Great reaction - now you know exactly how we felt the first time we ever heard Van Halen in 1978. Exactly like that. Our jaws were dropping to the floor. And this is actually off of their very first album that came out almost a decade before this performance. I saw them on that tour when I was in 9th grade and it totally blew my mind. That was a hard rocking show and we were all just so rowdy; people even smuggled bongs in and quarts of whiskey and so forth. It was insane. People were even shooting off bottle rockets. He did Eruption not quite like that but still really long and of course it drove the audience crazy. But it's strange to think I was in a venue that was small by today's standards. I bet the maximum capacity there was about 3,000 people. Maybe 4,000. And to think that all four of them were incredible and now you see what happens when you put them together and why they actually started taking over in the late 70s. And you've got Eddie bringing those chops in every song they did, so now you can see why they packed a wallop. That first album got played constantly all the time and every song on it got time on the radio. To me it's one of the most iconic albums in rock and it's an incredible debut album along with the first Boston album. You could pull any song from it and it would be fire. Check out Ain't Talkin Bout Love and Show Your Love from their first album. The first one is just such a solid song and it was a massive massive radio hit. I heard Show Your Love on the radio a lot too but in that one it's Eddie once again just going insane on those licks and harmonics but the whole song is at an incredible breakneck pace, and the drums are doing a super-fast swing thing that is so driving. And then in the end they even managed to slip in a bit of doo-wop barbershop quartet stuff, laugh. And of course all through the album, David Lee Roth is hilarious but a great singer. Something to be aware of that you could either react to or just check out for your own pleasure, is that on the album, this Eruption guitar solo is pretty short, like maybe two minutes or something and then it leads directly into their cover of The Kinks song, Girl You Really Got Me Now. This too was a massive radio hit and they almost always played them back-to-back together. And because Eruption is so short and the main song isn't all that long, it works really really well. But for those of us used to hearing Eruption on the album, It's unthinkable not to hear Girl You Really Got Me immediately on its heels! The guitar solo sets it up just perfectly.

One thing I've noticed about this performamce is that when we listen to what Eddie plays, the harmonies he uses aren't always discernable or easy to predict like most songs we hear regardless of genre. There is an obvious classical influence in his solo, but a lot of it just seems to flow freely and the harmonies are not what we would normally expect, almost verging on strange or dislikeable (some other reactors have mentionned this) only to then be perfectly wrapped up and start to make sense as he continues; they seem to be a completely free flow of musicality from Eddie's mind without any other influence which is very interesting. And we see how connected he is with his sound as whenever he manipulates a screaming sound from his guitar, he opens his mouth as if screaming himself, as he uses the guitar as his voice in a giant display of a plethora of sound and texture. It's by far one of the best examples of pure and natural musicality I believe I will ever see in my lifetime and it's a privilege to witness someone so connected to their craft. RIP Eddie.

Eddie took over the guitar world almost a decade before this concert. In 1978, Van Halen's first album came out, and it was amazing. There was an intro to one of their songs that was a guitar solo named Eruption, and no one had heard anything like it. Later, his guitar solo in concerts became known as eruption.

Let me tell you, it was even more impressive (and phucking LOUD) sitting 8th row center stage on the floor. I was at this show at the New Haven Coliseum on August 27, 1986. The smoke from Eddie’s constant cigarettes was nothing compared to the pot smoke in that place. Most of this concert was released on VHS and later on DVD, although it’s not the entire concert. This tour was a huge deal because everyone wondered what Van Halen would be like live without David Lee Roth, and they were incredible. I’d seen them on every tour with Roth, and it was very obvious that Eddie, Alex & Michael were having a lot more fun with Sammy Hagar. It also helped the sound of the band that Sammy was a great guitarist too, not as good as Eddie of course, but he was quite good.

@@k_salter The acoustics at New Haven coliseum were bad if you were up in the aisles, but on the floor it was right in your face. The Van Halen show was extremely loud, but it was crystal clear. I also saw the Scorpions there in 1985 and it was extremely loud but there was so much bass that you could hear the vocals. I was at the 1983 US Festival in California, and even though it was outdoors, Van Halen was still ridiculously loud, even louder than Judas Priest or Ozzy. The loudest show I ever saw Deep Purple at Madison Square Garden in 1984, I had to read lips the rest of the night after leaving that show, and the next day all I could hear was a loud high pitched screaming sound that was continuous. I’m sure there are a lot of musicians who have severe hearing loss, unless they have been wearing the best ear plugs for decades they must have trouble hearing.

Hi! Since you're taking a look at some great musicians, you should listen to the "greatest guitarist no one knows"-the legendary Rory Gallagher. Rory is held in high esteem by many musicians (Slash, Brian May, the Edge)and was courted by the Rolling Stones. Take a listen to "Tatoo'd Lady" from the 1979 Rockpalast performance. Incidentally, if you start down the rabbit hole of watching Rory's incredible live performances, you'll see he used tapping back in the early '70s.

"I Wonder Who" live in Belfast and Do You Read Me (Rock Goes To College, 1979) are essential Rory Gallagher.

There are absolutely unique individuals that carry through human history....king lionidis,William Wallace, Leonardo da Vinci,Albert Einstein and then came EDDIE VAN HALEN.the only guitarist I know that can take feedback and play a tune out it,that's when he's using the volume control to make it sound like a cello.

Pretty good for a kid who came to America after WWII, and couldn't speak English his family came to California. He was a classically trained pianist and never learned to read music. Built his own guitars because he couldn't afford a good one

I recommend checking out Iron Maiden. Start with Hallowed be thy Name - live at Hammersmith 1982; Rime of the Ancient Mariner - Live Flight 666 DVD 2009; Fear of the Dark - Live Rock in Rio 2002. You won't regret it.
