@@rodmunch4879 No - but... and he was quick to acknowledge this at the time... it was his best up to that point. In latter Van Halen albums you can hear how Quincy Jones' tutelage had helped him and inspired him is his solo construction., and his solos got better! (no mean feat given how incredible they were) Take a listen to the Jump solo, and you can hear how he had got more efficient and focused in his soloing. Quincy Jones really was a master...
Give me a fuckin break 😆 she sounds NOTHING like Eddie, not even close bud. Sloppy playing and horrible timing. If she were a male guitar player she wouldn’t even be on the stage.
Pues lo has clavado, no sabes la historia? Ese solo es de Van Halen. El productor queria meter un tema hard rock en el disco, pero al acabarlo les parecio que no era muy cañero, asiq ue decidieron llamar al mejor guitarrista de metal del momento. Lo grabo GRATIS porque le apetecia tocar en un disco de un chaval que se llamaba Michael Jackson. O sea, que mas o menos le hacia un favor a un chavalin desconocido. Luego, cuando el "Off the wall" vendio la hostia de discos los de su grupo se enteraron y casi le matan. Segun el lo grabo a la primera, aunque eso ya no me lo creo mucho.
@@Gozne por supuesto que conocía la historia y la autoría del solo original... De ahí el comentario... 😃 Por otro lado, EDVH simplemente dijo que una de las condiciones para hacer el solo, era no aparecer en los créditos y no cobrar nada, ya que en principio no iba a estar bien visto en el resto de la banda que colaborara con otro artista y quería pasar totalmente desapercibido, pero Quincy Jones le convenció... Obviamente no iba a pasar desapercibido semejante solo, y en tan semejante éxito comercial que tuvo Jackson.
JB is a very talented glass artist as well as a world-class guitarist. She made a beautiful glass piece for my home. Thanks, JB for being such an all-around talent and good person.
@@jasonmichaels5796 lol, no one ever said she was as good as Eddie. Eddie was Eddie!! He’s gone now. Jennifer Batten nailed it!! Without being Eddie......understand?? SMH
@@jasonmichaels5796 she’s done a lot for the industry. One cannot knock that. that’s what’s good about opinions....they’re like assholes. Everyone has one, and we’re all entitled to our own opinion. Cheers....and keep picking, Bro
I met La Maestra in 2016 after a gig in a small town here in Italy. A super kind and humble human being and a REALLY talented musician!!! 🤘🤘🤘🔝🔝🔝❤❤❤ Greetings from Italy!!! 😉
Дженнифер Баттен просто огонь🔥🔥🔥 именно тот момент где музыкант соотвествует своему певцу!!! Майкл Джэксон это легенда он очень педантично подбирал себе музыкантов но эта девушка такая же как и он от Бога!!!
Jennifer was ahead of her time so much so that many people didn't believe that she was playing the solo they thought it was just a recording I love to just see it interview with her on what it was like to play with Mike and not the only be around great musicians but at a time where girls didn't get shots like that
Eddie Van Halen se viu e ouviu na época, deve ter aplaudido a guitarrista, tocou muito, destruiu os acordes, muito bom. Que saudades do Michael Jackson. Por que se foi tão cedo? Praticamente morreu sózinho, só tinha aquele médico que ainda foi acusado de ter dado um medicamento em excesso. Me pergunto: Onde estava os amigos, ou alguém pra ajudar o MJ naquele momento delicado da vida, onde ele precisava de ajuda? Que destino do MJ, havia dezenas de pessoas ao seu redor nos shows, milhões e milhões de fãs, e o MJ estava sózinho, que ironia, triste, mas infelizmente não tem como voltar atrás.
well done Jennifer, you honored Eddie by respecting the original and showing that you are a great professional. I also saw you on Jeff Beck's stage. You can only get to those places if you are really grown up
Ela entra com estilo executando o solo e concentrada nos passos do rei, encara o Michael frente a frente, finaliza o solo como um ser sobrenatural e destemido.
That's actually how she got the gig with Michael Jackson by playing Eddie's solo and fun factoid she had to show Eddie how to play the solo before he actually played it live on stage with Michael and the Texas stadium. The picture made front page news in the Fort Worth Star-Telegram
Stands to reason Ed wouldn't have remembered this solo, seeing he totally winged it in the studio and probably never attempted it again until he played live with MJ that one time.
Fast walking and fast playing don't normally work... Hat's off to Batten!!!
Its not even fast
@@hafizmuizz7269 who gives a fuck? MUSIC has nothing to do with fast
@@johnbuell8035 you’re an idiot
@@macgraal7150 fuck off. You can stop in at the Moron Club on your way, and have your usual.
Angus : umm... Ok
I remember Jen Batten always writing articles for guitar magazines with crazy tapping solos that I couldn't play. ;)
She came to my hometown like 30 years ago for a guitar clinic, and I got her to sign my guitar. She was super nice.
Hey here you are again... on all my fav videos.... why are we watching the same stuff... algorithm
Lol I remember that too! She used to teach at the music school when I first started playing guitar in 87.
Guitar for the practicing musician was one of those magazines !
yep, 8 finger fretboard technique... another level!
Totally world class... amazing, that solo and walking.. just... wow!
A gutarra da genifer batter e veneno
that solo was meh actually
@@odin6131 ?
shit and walked past..world class ..my fu.ck.arss lol fuck off.
@@odin6131 that's subjective
the solo is a monument to rock history.
Eddie, man. What you did was perfect.
RIP Eddie the most explosive 🧨 guitarist in history.........
Quiet possibility EVH laid down in be best guitar solo ever.
@@rodmunch4879not in this song but he definitely has contenders for the best guitar solos ever

This woman can bring it. She is the best at replicating Eddie I've heard so far she can do it!!!!!!!!!!!🎸☝
Much better than Slash
Not John5
How do you know that’s actually Jennifer batten , could be en an imposter in a carnival mask
Give me a fuckin break 😆 she sounds NOTHING like Eddie, not even close bud. Sloppy playing and horrible timing. If she were a male guitar player she wouldn’t even be on the stage.
@@humanactivated1017 brilliant...said no one
Extremely difficult solo part... It is only possible for very talented guitarists. Jennifer Batten is a legend!!
utter rubbish.
@@wxyzxdll ?
@@wxyzxdll You're rubbish.
I love the shade attitude as she walks away,a true queen and diva
Her attitude is just amazing.
Her tone, her style, of course her playing… but the way she carries herself on stage is epic.
Watching in 2021 and I have to say with tears in my eyes that I miss MJ ✌️What a lost and lost of future music.
Same!
And Eddie.
@@Crussman499 mj is a loooooottttt bigger than eddie
@@mrthakur1639 both were big in their respected genre's sorry. Really can't compare.
She really did that solo justice!
Not really. Sloppy playing and horrible timing. If she were a male guitar player she wouldn’t even be on the stage.
Eddie Van Halen estaría orgulloso de esta versión, impresionante!
Not forgetting, "Steve Lukather"

0:46 that vibrato
I saw her at HOB in New Orleans play with Jeff Beck and she held her own. She’s highly skilled with a guitar. Amazing!
Batten what a legend
I’m in tears this is so damn good!!!!!! Gosh
Cool as ice Jennifer Batten, the best guitar solo and attitude with mj I've ever seen! Rock on girl!!!
The best live performance of this solo imo.
She absolutely killed it! 💯
can we talk about that pinch harmonic? 0:35
Was it not a dive bomb that was a little out of tune
@@thelordofdarkness141 Clearly a pinch. But I like divebombs too.
I've been trying to learn that pinch harmonic thingy for years now....out of 25 picks I'll luckily do it once! 😖

Must use flesh of thumb and pick simultaneously. I can hit PH at will anywhere
That was badass!! She nailed it!! 😍
Not really she played it okay but her fingers were slow no one will ever play it like Eddie
@@jasonmichaels5796 lol, no one ever said she was as good as Eddie. Eddie was Eddie!! He’s gone now.

Sounded great and loved when she was walking then strutted off after the solo!
Makes my hair stand up every time I hear this Solo,she did justice to evh's memory.just plain great job!!
That bass slap in the background is the most underrated part.
Дженнифер Баттен просто огонь🔥🔥🔥 именно тот момент где музыкант соотвествует своему певцу!!! Майкл Джэксон это легенда он очень педантично подбирал себе музыкантов но эта девушка такая же как и он от Бога!!!
Fantastica Jennifer, una grande chitarrista
As a guitarist and performer, Jennifer is beyond solid gold: she is PLATINUM.
Those harmonics 😍😍👍

Jennifer Batten is simply amazing!
saw JB in a small venue, very cool lady, got to chat with her for awhile after the show.....class act and humble

Absolute cinema 🎥🔥
Yes! Someone who did it actually like the record! I don’t want to hear your version, I want to hear Eddie’s! Great job girl😊

빗잇은 에디의 기타연주를 따라올수없다
그누가 연주해도 그맛이 안난다
에디가 그립다
dame the cloths are just what im looking for along with that paint and.....WOW
Great job..kills me Eddie did his part for free
relax guys, i don't think the solo was even played live, it's easy to see at 0:38 to 0:40 the pitch stick is not even in her hand
Nailed it!
She's a beast of a player!
Credits to EVH as the original composer of the solo and credits to JB for the great and flawless execution of the solo.
i love haughty walk jenny batten still rock on 🇵🇭🤘
That's actually how she got the gig with Michael Jackson by playing Eddie's solo and fun factoid she had to show Eddie how to play the solo before he actually played it live on stage with Michael and the Texas stadium. The picture made front page news in the Fort Worth Star-Telegram
best on earth on their class
Are you reslly saying this female beats eddie
@@odin6131 no one beats Eddie
I love how she brushed him of. :D
Badass guitar player 🤘🏻🧔🏻🤘🏻

それはもう世界中の大富豪が全財産を投げ打って願っても叶えられない夢の時間ですよ
Jen really nails it on the jeff beck albums 👍👍
Eddie van halen you legend Rip brother
The 0:35 harmonic pinch gives me goosebumps 100%
Ne too! It's so gritty and filthy perfect.
Stands to reason Ed wouldn't have remembered this solo, seeing he totally winged it in the studio and probably never attempted it again until he played live with MJ that one time.
Great clip!
Que polenta tiene esta canción!!! La 🎸🔥
Jennifer you are amazing
What a classic
Met her at a masterclass and she played the solo. Brilliant experience.
Great Jennifer !
That was bad ass!!
Awesome
This is Like Prince's While my Guitar gently weeps Hall of fame moment.. I'll never forget it.. 🤔🔥
Amazing performance
I love the last hit she did to MJ saying as you king of pop so I am queen of solo
