Same goes with Yngwie some years later. Guys around that time wo also were breaking new ground are by my definition underrated. But are you underrated when you're Satchel? I doubt he thinks so himself.

This is one of the best tributes to VH I've seen this past week. You guys really did an amazing job here, and totally gave justice to every part of the song. The vocals were on point, the guitar was just about perfect in tone and rhythm, the drums were very good, and the backup harmonies and bass were in the spirit of Michael Anthony! Eddie was absolutely one of the top 3 most influential guitar players in the history of rock music. Hendrix laid the tracks and Eddie drove the train of modern rock guitar. It was because of EVH that everyone started tapping in their solos and playing as fast as they possibly could for an entire decade! One could argue that fast guitar shredding was born in 1978. RIP to the king.

Always thought the steel panther musicianship is amazing. Fantastic cover. This has to be one of the greatest riffs of all time but never gets a mention

They’re all incredible.

One of my most fond memories was winning this contest in new orleans to go sing on stage with the atomic punks and Russ and the guys were like ... unbelievably supportive and amazing to talk to. Big ole nerds for music at the end of the day and getting to belt out panama with them as my "side men" was just something im going to die loving. They were all super cool about everything and did a nice photo session with me after the show (this was their own idea! I won a silent auction to go sing panama, that was it lol). Russ even waited out side of his bus for me to go get one of my guitars for him to sign, it was like 1am lol. I was in my very early 20s at the time, I didnt even for a moment consider their time; I was just enamored with the situation. These guys just handled me with outrageous grace and humble behavior I didnt deserve lol. Obviously I was glad to be there lol

All I can say is Thank you. EDDIE Van Halen is looking down with his smirk on his face and his guitar on his hip and God on his side learning how to play like him. If you watch any of the Van Halen music videos EDDIE is having a blast doing what he is best at. Looks like you guys had a blast making this video. Thank you again

Awesome mix! So sad to discover his passing while we celebrated my son's 27th birthday. We were all out to dinner when out of the blue it flashed on the screen. I was 17 when getting a hard boot to the head from 'You Really Got Me' et all. Only band I've seen multiple times. Shocked is all I can say... RIP, Mister Guitar Legend, Edward Lodewijk Van Halen.
