Eddie Van Halen & Sammy "Love Walks In" (Bridge School Benefit 1993)

You rarely hear people talking about Eddie Van Halen's brilliant piano playing. This is one of my favorite ballads we wrote for 5150. In 1993, Neil Young invited me back to do another Bridge benefit and I brought Eddie. It was so special and unusual. We had never done anything like this. Please enjoy this treasure.

    A lot of people disagree with me, but I have always thought, and still do believe, that Van Halen was the absolute best with You and Eddie Sammy. I liked Van Halen with Dave, but you being in the band brought Van Halen to a whole other level. And as much as Dave fans scream otherwise, Record Sales prove it. It's too bad that it didn't keep going on with Van/ Hagar because there was still so much to be able to do. Unfortunately....it will never be again. I give it to Wolfie for addressing that Van Halen is done now. It's very honorable of him to keep Van Halen what it was. Thanks for sharing this with us Sammy. Thank You Sammy for continuing onwards with Chicken Foot and Full Circle. Mostly, though, Thank You for burying the Axe, (in this case an actual guitar), with Eddie, and both of you finding forgiveness with each other. Truly shows the brotherhood and Love you both had for each other. MERRY CHRISTMAS SAMMY/ KARI and family, ALEX, MICHEAL, WOLFIE, VALERIE, JANIE and all family members. May 2021 be better and get back to some normalcy soon. HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!!! Keep Safe All, Peace, Happiness, Love, and Laughter Always, Matt

    We can mourn Eddies loss, or we can celebrate his music, or we can do both. I, too, was a pimple faced, skinny teen punk in ‘78 when Van Halen I was released and never in my wildest dreams did I think that one band, one guitarist, would have the impact on me the way Van Halen did. I built my bedroom into a shrine in respect and love for Van Halen. My son texted me at work on the day it was publicly released that Eddie had passed. What a monstrous gut punch that was and still is; his passing was, as others have said here, like losing your best friend or favorite sibling. Thanks EVH for everything. The music world will never have another like you.

He quit piano after a few years, but to say he was "Classically Trained" pianist is wrong. If he were classically trained, his lessons would have gone on for many years and he would be able to sight read music. His father was a Classically trained clarinetist though. But he is obviously a good player. But you are incorrect here. His instructor may have been a classically trained instructor though.

    The piano/keyboards was one of Ed's great loves and what he was originally trained on before he ever picked up a guitar. All the great keyboard and synth melodies of the band were Ed's doing and they are as recognizable as anything he did on the 6-string. He had a knack for great jungles, chord progressions, and fills on the keyboard. When you hear just 1-2 notes you instantly know is a Van Halen song.

    I love Van Halen but I don't tend to read up on every detail of artists so all I've ever heard about Eddie Van Halen is how great a guitarist he was,which is true, and not that he could also play piano 🎹, This is a beautiful song and personally I think that most accustic guitar versions of songs that are usually electric guitar led lose a bit in translation but this version of "Love Walks In" is as good even though it's a piano version with NO guitars.

    Eddie was never a singer. He even said himself that he wasn't great with words, so he would talk using his skill. I always admired that. He let his skill do the talking. He was humble and calm, which made him a great father and an all-around good guy. He has been and always will be missed. I hate to see you only in Dreams now, Eddie.

    wow, this is a phenomenal video. Talk about putting yourself out there to sing this song with only keyboards behind? Nobody seems to do this stuff anymore.... all track vocals. Sammy started his career when I was like..... 3 years old, so his early stuff was a little before my day. By the time Sammy joined Van Halen, I was a huge fan and continue to be to this day. We went to his beach bash in Huntington beach, and though they were overwhelmed by the turnout(ran out of food, booze, gates opened hours late) it was still so much damn fun. I have been listening to Sammy's "The Essential Red Collection," during my workouts for the past few months. Just love his music and the man. I blew it a few years ago and was selected for his birthday bash but we couldnt go. Hopefully we get a second chance. Love ya Sammy!
