VAN HALEN 45~dance the night away ***Looks Unplayed***
Eddie Van Halen was a game-changer, a tone-chaser, a riff machine, songwriter, composer, an avant-garde artist who picked up the guitar where Jimi Hendrix left it, and ran with it like a quarterback into the future.
Eddie’s wide palette of guitar tropes became a Rock Guitar 101 lesson for the legions of players who followed him. Like Hendrix, many of his extended licks and tricks were highly unconventional at the time, but have since been copied so closely as to have become the new orthodoxy.
Steve Hackett, Billy Gibbons and Brian May were just some of the rock guitar players who had ‘tapped’ before – playing melodies by fretting notes on the neck with the fingers of their picking/ strumming hand. But Eddie strapped two turbo engines either side of the concept and shot for the moon. In his nimble hands the technique created whole new possibilities, in terms of the note intervals that could be achieved on the guitar, and the speed at which they could be delivered.
