RIP Eddie Van Halen
Lost the battle with cancer and passed at age 65. I was in Junior High when songs from "Van Halen" hit the FM stations... You Really Got Me, Runnin with the Devil, Eruption, Jamie's Cryin. Following albums had hits like Beautiful Girls, Happy Trails, And the Cradle Will Rock, Jump. Even though I was more of a Jimmy Page/Pete Townshend/Richie Blackmore fan, Eddie could play hard rock guitar riffs with the best of them.
