  • เผยแพร่เมื่อ 21 พ.ย. 2020
  • This is the third of a row of Tribute Videos caused by the death of Eddie Van Halen. I - just like any other guitarist - always loved Spanish Fly, which was Eddies guitar solo on the album Van Halen 2 and later appeared in every live solo he did.
    The harmonics, the speed picking and beautiful harmonic progression at the end make it a very hard but very special and fun piece to play.
    The other Tribute Videos you can find in the following list now or soon:
    1. Little Guitars (Intro): • Little Guitars (Intro)...
    2. Eruption: • Eruption - Eddie Van H...
    3. Spanish Fly: • Spanish Fly - Eddie V...
    4. Pleasure Dome / Source of infection (Intros): • Pleasure Dome / Source...
    5. Beat it (Solo): • Beat It (Solo) - Eddie...
    6. 316: • 316 - Eddie Van Halen ...
    7. Judgement day: • Judgement Day - Eddie ...

    " Eddie Van Halen was in a class all of his own. His sound, technique, rhythm, and musicality changed the game for all guitarists (and this electric violinist) that followed. I am a far better performer, a far better violinist, with a much larger range of abilities, thanks to the months (or years) I put into dissecting his style and taking the time to do this on a violin as close to how he did it (so effortlessly) on a guitar as possible. Thank you, EVH, for making so many of us better musicians." Nina DiGregorio
