In another message, the Demo God wrote, “God bless you, Edward Van Halen, your work with Van Halen and your music has done more to make the world a happier place than you’ll ever know. And one more thing….after taking Neil Peart, Kobe Bryant, and now EVH from us, 2020, will you kindly just f*** off already?”
After Jimi Hendrix and Les Paul, EVH is arguably one of the greatest electric guitarists. Surprisingly, he never had formal music studies and never learned how to read music. He popularized the two-handed tapping technique and introduced a fast-paced style in hard rock, back in the ’80s.
