Brother that was awesome. Eddie wanted to join KISS back in the day and Gene Simmons told him " you are far bigger than anything you can imagine ". He was right. EVH forever ❤💔
Ding..Ding...Best Comment Award...I can't take more than 3 minutes...He forgot u don't have to play every note 100 mph in every song...Fast but no feel...
@@if6turnedouttobe9 I'd argue some songs have feel. Black Star and Far Beyond the Sun for example. Other than that; yeah most of his songs are just runs up and down scales.
If Eddie played for... All these bands... I would be into a lot more of these bands! :) Very well done - the A-Ha and Police covers had me dying laughing - and your take on how we would approach these songs is probably very close to reality. You got his overall style down quite nicely - awesome video! :)
Don t know why some people thumbs down this. Pretty creative and thought out. I'm impressed. If I was as near talented as this guy I would hardly ever put my guitar down. Good job keep it up!!!
I think it was very well composed like so fucking cool. Too many tapped harmonics for my liking. But you do as you wish. The tapping section was gold. I’m going to steal it for while I practice.
You’re fantastic. This is why I love to play the guitar, so many styles and techniques. You’ll never learn and perfect everything so there’s always something new to do. Well done
A very well "What if....?"Lol!I love it !!!I've also have been an Eddie Van Halen fan,and he is my favorite guitar player,of all time!You've managed to add new Eddie(90s to old Eddie, early days!)with ease!!! Quite well,I might add!I close my eyes and,say,yeah you nailed it!!!!I am also a guitar player,and I have listened closely to Eddie,as you have!Bravo!
I Think Eddie Would be Very Impressed With Yer "Guitar Playing and Skill's" .. That Tremolo Bar You Are Running is Absolutely Effective and Amazing Keep Up The Great Work Andres Wow! Man :D] .v ..
So who would have written Running with the Devil, Ain't talkin bout love, And the cradle will rock, Romeo Delight, Mean Street, Unchained. Hear about it later, Panama, Hot for Teacher, and countless others ? Randy Rhodes? We can tell from his Ozzy output that he could a few decent bits but nothing near Eddie"s level. And no the other guys in Van Halen didn't write shit, Roth wrote the words big deal. What memorable songs did Rhodes write anyway? Van Halen would never exist with Randy Rhodes. It would just be one long solo for the whole 40 minute album.wake up fanboy.
Randy Rhoads IMO was light years ahead of EVH. Listen to Diary of a Madman and you will see his briliance. After VH's first album he didn't really get that much better.
Backtoshallabal OMG....... you obviously havent heard fair warning or 1984? Randy a great widdly diddly heavy metal guitarist. Evh an all round better musician who crossed over to mainstream something Randy wld of only dreamed . He wld of ended up another yngwie
Those are great albums but the first one was the best. I still think Randy was much more complete than Eddie. Eddie slightly had a better tone, but if you ask any guitarist they would have a harder time figuring Randy's solos than Eddie's.
Backtoshallabal i dont think that Ed was that technical but Ed had that ability to understand that it wasn't about being technical or fast. His musicianship n songwriting became his priority.
Another great video, you are really something else Mr, I hope you wake upp every morning and know that in your heart. Most people get my favorite guitarist EVH wrong. Sure, he created some great solos. I read in an old interview with him saying that he sees himself as a rhythm guitarist first, and solo second. I think this is absolutely true, his best work is in the rhythm and the riffs. Hats off to you, man. Great work.
I listened to your video on Yngwie Malmsteen and now Eddie Van Halen, and both would have intimidated the bands you depicted them with. I can almost envision the various band members standing there in awe and asking "What in the hell?" cause Malmsteen and Van Halen would overshadow them all cause both Malmsteen and Van Halen would outclass bands like ZZ Top, AC/DC and Aha.
Thanks Guys for all your support !!! Do you have any suggestions for new videos? (covers, arrangements, "if .... played for..."" series) Also, I'd like if you follow me you on my Facebook and Instagram, I'm uploading more content there. Links on the description box above. Rock On.
Totally funny and I get the joke. He's not short on ego. That said, he's always been cool with fellow guitarists, its singers he can't seem to get along with, lol.
Which ``first one`` do you mean? From 0:00 to 0:09 it`s Cathedral from Van Halen album Diver Down 1982, and it sounds like EVH, nothing to do with Vai -Satch. The second ``first one``, from 0:10 to 1:08, is just like the author of the video said `` what if EVH played guitar in ZZ Top`s La Grange``. Again, pure EVH style. Maybe the problem is, that Vai-Satch sound like EVH sometimes.
That's the first thing I thought. His guitar setup sounds a lot cleaner like Satch, he just doesn't have that "brownsound" perfected to make it sound quite like Eddy.
you forgot to pan your guitar left and reverb right! but anyway thank you for actually playing rhythm guitar parts as well, eddie is great at rhythm guitar
HoshiHearts RetroGaming Haha, exactly that was a reverb send. It's insane that after the first album they didn't fix that. I think the best way to listen to the early records is on a stereo cranked up. When you listen on headphones it's just kinda annoying that it sounds that way. I really would love to know their reasoning besides wanting it to be a "live" feel. Early Sabbath would be a great example of one guitar player being double tracked for fullness and that worked out well. They also drenched everything in reverb quite a bit on those first 3.
Eddie didn't like doing overdubs, but even back then it seems there should have been a way to double-track it without him having to play the rhythm parts twice. Like maybe bouncing the original track and putting a very subtle delay on it. it wouldn't be the same, but it would definitely help fill out the space.
i see what you mean, White Lion's Vito Bratta outclasses Edward Van Halen in every way shape and form as he takes tapping to the whole new level but i still like both guitarists though personally Vito is my favorite, his solo in Wait is fun but challenging none the less!
You are fucking good man but I'll say you emulate Eddie's technic but not phrasing wise and scale speaking. I mean the sound and skills are there but it dosent feel like Eddie's solos sound.
Yeah as if there is one van halen,, all Eddie are different on every album. As if the EVH of VH1 sounds anything close like the EVH of today. He just takes technical tricks of EVH and weaves them together to fit the songs. EVH of today would probably go into some non directionnal spontaneous tapping, then run up the neck pizzicato style and then finsih in whammy bar on every song. This guy at least thought of something.
It's pretty damn hard to exactly emulate Eddie's sound just because of the way he has his guitars and soundboards set up. If you get close enough as a cover artist you're pretty good

the tapped harmonics for every breath you take were astounding

Tap harmonics are really a lot easier than people think they are..
Agreed
He already did. It's called "Can't Stop Loving You".
@@elonmust7470 Ik right just tap 12 frets up
Wow! That A-ha part was (both solo and rythm parts) pure genius
Cem Sarioglu AGREED!
Yes best part
Cem Sarioglu Haha, I was thinking the same thing, definitely my favorite part..
I know I was at first like A-ha?? No way. Then I was like, shit that was brilliant.
Cem Sarioglu *it would have been a #1 hit in 85*
Brother that was awesome. Eddie wanted to join KISS back in the day and Gene Simmons told him " you are far bigger than anything you can imagine ". He was right. EVH forever ❤💔
He had wayyy too much talent for that crap band. Van halen is miles better than kiss
Eddie never wanted to join kiss. That's a story gene made up.
Listening to this today just feels right. This feels like an awesome tribute to EVH.
I totally agree .. It was killer !
Wow. You really understand Eddie VH
Or he's just reusing the same few tricks from Eruption and the Beat It solo over and over.
@Jimi Hendrix great buttal to that previous comment Jimi!! Ur not only a great guitarist but a #TopNotch rebuttler too!!!
Don't tell his psychiatrist!!
NOT!
That Tornado of Souls solo sounded incredible!
My favorite metal solo + my favorite guitarist
...and now it's time for If EVH played for...part 2
I’ve lost count of how many times I’ve watched this clip. Incredible.
A lot of people seem to forget Eddie was a great rhythm player on top of his amazing lead skill. I think you capture both sides of Eddie quite nicely
Every breath you take sounds like can't stop loving you
Cathedral meets DeadMau5... amazing!
You really get the essence of EVH man, amazing!
Thanks!! :)
If EVH played with Malmsteen I would be able to listen to Malmsteen for more then 5 min
Awesome video.

The deadmau5 one blew me away. I was expecting a joke but it was totally spot on.
Very creative, enjoyable, and masterfully played - and stark proof that EVH could play the phone book and make it sing!
Ednado of souls blew me away....
I'll see myself out.
Heh, ednado of souls
Torneddie of souls
Tourneddie. Brilliant.
Don t know why some people thumbs down this. Pretty creative and thought out. I'm impressed. If I was as near talented as this guy I would hardly ever put my guitar down. Good job keep it up!!!

This is so good I came back a year later feeling the sane way! "Awesome Brother!!!"
need full versions of these songs in this style now! VH makes everything 10x better!
You’re fantastic. This is why I love to play the guitar, so many styles and techniques. You’ll never learn and perfect everything so there’s always something new to do. Well done
this gives me an idea. Every time I play tornado of souls from now on ill dive the shit out of my guitar first. Shit sounded awesome I swear
Yess, I've been doing that for 2 years now

Awesome !!! amazing Talent!!!
If dimebag darrell played for
Mauricio Martello Aliaga Pantera?
That would be good.
From Pantera?? Wasnt is Diamond Darrell ???

Thanks bro!! :D
What a powerful solos!
Thanks!! :D
Can you tell me what are you using in that solo of deadmau5? Like a button
I used a delay + reverb and phaser all in Bias FX
I used the volume knob too, to make that effect like "Cathedral from EVH" or like Yngwie too.
What a savings!
Nice job playing Eddie's style, and keeping the phrasing on those iconic solos!
More! how about if Eddie Van Halen played for Santana...the Allman Brothers...The Talking Heads.... The Pretenders.... more please!
Man you ROCK,you are great and in the yngwie solo I laughed too!!You are very talented,trully a fresh video!!!
Fucking awesome video dude loved it

Very interesting to ponder.

Sweet. Those versions smoked. Awesome.
I’m lost for words ,outstanding
Requesting for "If John Petrucci played for.." :)
I Remember has to be one of my all-time favorite house/eletro songs and that intro was just amazing. Mixed so well with the original melody. Damn!

who the hell down voted this masterpiece? ??
Maybe some people didn't like the idea :/
Maybe some people didn't voted up this masterpiece :v
Metal Perception people who didn't think this really sounded like Eddie's style.
People who just don’t get it
1980'sRare&Unreleased lol no I don't think that's it
This is awesome! And the reason is that a lot of thought had to be put into making Van Halen-style lead fit into songs we know. OUTSTANDING!

though personally Vito is my favorite, his solo in Wait is fun but challenging none the less!

That was excellent playing bro!!! Wow.
You are fucking good man but I'll say you emulate Eddie's technic but not phrasing wise and scale speaking. I mean the sound and skills are there but it dosent feel like Eddie's solos sound.

Rayer Scarpensael I know this is good shit he's good you just said pretty the same thing i different words
he kept the original structure to the leads whos to say that eddie would do that
