I just spent about 3 hours watching guitar solo after guitar solo from various artists.
I watched the best, including Steve Morse, Stevie Ray Vaughn, Jimi Hendrix, Jimmy Page, with a never ending list.
To my disappointment, these gutiarists are all great, but grew bored a little from time to time.
As soon as Eddie Van Halen took the plate, nobody sounds better nor is more entertaining to watch play the guitar quite like him. The sounds he generates, the motions of his fingers, all so smooth but incredibly entertaining to watch.
You never know what he'll do, what innovative technique he'll perform. From the introduction of Mean Streets to the flat-out artistic Cathedral, Eddie reaches all realms of the guitar world, using tapping techniques and crescendos/descrescendos.
Edward Van Halen is by far the best sounding and the most entertaining to watch play the guitar. I remember going back three years wanting to play guitar like him. Now I can do some of his tricks. It's totally radical.
Eddie wrote some of the most memorable licks. He is a guitar god and a guitar hero. Too bad he's slipping on his act these days.
Ed probably has one of the widest ranges of moods in his solos, which always caught my attention. He's number one on my list dudes.
