It was the mid eighties and I was only 15 and my older sister said, "Hey, do you want to go see David Gilmour there's a show tonight?" I didn't even know who it was but I knew Pink Floyd. Forty-five mins before the show we bought tickets and then we drove like the wind to make the show. As the ticket checkers/security looked at our tickets they kept waving us down, further and further towards the stage at the pavilion where we saw him. We couldn't believe our seats. We were front row and center! I literally had the center seat and there was no barrier between audience and stage. This was his solo tour. I could see hickeys on his neck we were so close and he smiled down at us, two girls 15 and 19, several times as he jammed Comfortably Numb so close I could almost touch his guitar. Turns out the disc-jockey from the local Rock radio station had cancelled and those tickets were thrown back into the system and we bought them one minute later. My sister looked at me and told me, "Enjoy this because it will never happen again!" She was right, it never did and after that I really got into Pink Floyd and Gilmour, and your video...couldn't have said it better myself. He is amazing--one of a kind, a Stradivarius caliber guitar player who makes me feel so much. His slide guitar is unparalleled and I saw Floyd several times after that but that concert was the best. My sister is dead now but I will always have that memory.

David Gilmour is my favorite guitarist, closely followed by Mark Knopfler. While on the surface Eddie Van Halen seems like he was 'just' a shredder (no disrespect to players who love speed), he was a fantastic writer on both the guitar and the piano/keyboards. He could be subtle if the song needed it.
@michaelw6277 Жыл бұрын
I think Gilmour is my main personal inspiration as a guitarist due to his ability to get the absolute most out of each and every note that he plays. With Eddie it seems like it’s his solo guitar skills that get the most attention, and that praise is well deserved, but for me the magic of Eddie’s playing is in his riffs… there aren’t many guitar players who come close.

Van Halen played covers during their club days from 1975 to 1977. They covered their favorite rock bands like Led Zeppelin, Black Sabbath, Cream Deep Purple, KISS, Rainbow, Tommy Bolin and others. Yes many years later Eddie did say that he only coppied Eric's solos note for note but he did listen to a lot of bands and Van Halen covered their songs. So he had to sit down and learn those songs: riffs, chords but maybe he didn't copy the solos.

@@karsguitarchannel6088 That would be great. I know Gilmour liked Chicago (in this 70s Music VH1 special) and he seemed to wear those same hockey jerseys. Curious about EVH-Kath (or if it was too late, but they did live in LA)
Originals always sound like themself. EvH played through Steve Vai's rig. Steve said: Sounded like EvH.
Reality is he said he never listened to music except clapton briefly. He focused on his own. There's an interview video of him saying it.

Van Halen played covers during their club days from 1975 to 1977. They covered their favorite rock bands like Led Zeppelin, Black Sabbath, Cream Deep Purple, KISS, Rainbow, Tommy Bolin and others. Yes many years later Eddie did say that he only coppied Eric's solos note for note but he did listen to a lot of bands and Van Halen covered their songs. So he had to sit down and learn those songs: riffs, chords but maybe he didn't copy the solos.

Eddie van Halen is an impressive player but does nothing for me, David Gilmour is great.

Does nothing for you,you've got to be kidding.if you like rock n roll at all and don't like EVH there's something amiss.
Love Gilmore his tone and solos, but the songs are not for me.
Ha. You would be hard pressed to convince me that anyone other than Terry Kath was the master guitar player
This is great stuff …HOWEVER/ A nerrator ( pardon my spelling) Whom is totally stuck on blues is what Rock is..garbage..! Slow playing isn’t all what emotions are…! If your doing a song about a heart or emotion beat sped up are going to play blues ? This guy talking probably can’t sweep pick etc.. Blues is great however speed creativity crests other emotions If you just do blues it’s boring You have to mix it up
David Gilmour is perfect example of "lesbian more"? 😮
Eddie was way better! Period!
Eddie was a great soloist but his song compositions were very mediocre compared to his idols.

I say it all the time, but he couldn't write an absolute legendary riff. People say Mean Streets but, to me, that doesn't cut it and be up there, like Satisfaction, Day Tripper or Another Brick in the Wall pt 2. He was a great player, but not an all-round player since he didn't have that.
Gilmour: so simple, a caveman can do it. #completelyOverrated

People can copy it, sure, but no one can write the solos like him... otherwise they would be also considered one of the greatest guitarists of all time, too
nothing comes off the fingers except dirt or old skin cells lol. The reason a guitar player sounds SIMILAR to himself is because of his particular style. In otherwords ....... Put Ted on Eddies rig, set up the way eddie sets it up ....he will sound SIMILAR to eddie. Regardless of Ted saying otherwise.

The Equiptment is crucial in a persons "sound"
Gilmour can play with soul. Eddie never played a note that had any soul. Just sayin
Eddie Van Halen is the best ever because he does tapping and plays fast. David Gilmour is way out of date.

When you're sure, let us know instead of your hypothesis. Also, did you miss the part that Gilmour was a fan of Eddie and admitted he couldn't play like Eddie when he tried. Eddie could play Gilmours stuff fairly easily.

That's a pretty ridiculous thing to say. They're both humungous mega-selling artists. Neither band's popularity is disappearing anytime soon. Just because Pink Floyd are more famous and you like them more doesn't mean anything.
