    Interesting RATT factor about CVH!

    RATT | OFFICIAL WEBSITE
    http://www.therattpack.com/
    Official site with band information, tour dates, news, audio and videos, photos and more.


    I was surfing the official RATT website and was reading up on the band member info. I was reading Robbie Crane's bio and he listed the most inspirational musicians...here goes

    Most Inspirational Musicians: Jimi Hendrix, Curtis Mayfield, Led Zepplin, Thin Lizzy, Janis Joplin, The Who, The Rolling Stones, The Beatles, David Bowie, The Sex Pistols, Van Halen (78'-83'), AC/DC, Iron Maiden, Judas Priest, Black Sabbath, Ozzy (80'-83'), Bob Marley and the Wailers, Creedence Clearwater Revival, Sly Stone, Elvis and of course Frank Sinatra!!


    Run that by us again? Van Halen (78'-83'!) Thank you very much! Another point for the good guys. Makes me always wonder what Van Hagar inspires besides wanting to drink a bottle of pepto bismal!

      Well I'll tell you Warren DeMartini listened to his share of early Van Halen, regardless of what HIS list of influences says. I always thought he was almost blatent in his borrowing from EVH.

                  Eddie mentioned in a recent Stephen Pearcy interview. I got it from Metal Sludge's message board and I thought I would share:


                  q:
                  We once heard a rumor about a time you went out of town and your neighbors saw Eddie Van Halen in your bushes. What was Eddie doing in your bushes?

                  a:
                  Now that's funny, Eddie has been a good friend of mine for a long time. He used to live down the street from me and he'd tell his wife he was quitting drinking and leave things behind in my bushes for later consumption. I spoke to him a few months back, Eddie is cool.

                      It just goes to show - you can be influenced by something ans still churn out sub-par material....

                          Totally. 'Specially on Out Of The Cellar and Invasion Of Your Privacy.

                          DeMartini and George Lynch had more than a few Van Halenisms in their playing. Easy enough to discern. Lynch even admitted as much. That's not to say I didn't enjoy their playing, but EVH played more than a passing influence in what those two were doing, least in the early/mid 1980s.

                              DeMartini sounds like EVH alot in 2 songs: You in Love, and Lay it down.

                              OBVIOUSLY inspired bu UNCHAINED!

                              see him live. It is like watching early eddie without the tapping. He even plays Charvels with one humbucker.

                              watch and listen he has some classic EVH in him

                              but then again doesnt alomost everyone?

                                                  I'll say that Warren DiMartini is one of the best metal guitarists ever. I never thought he was ripping off EVH....EVERYONE in that era was influenced by EVH, but WD was different. He was one of the smoothest guitarists of the time. He and George Lynch epitomized great metal guitar in the 80's (along with EVH)

                                                      I'm not saying he sucked...I like Warren. I hear the EVH influence in his rhythm playing probably more than his leads.
