Eruption is just the INTRO to a song though, isn't it?

Although I do see it by itself pretty often, and I myself do find it to be pretty impressive, especially after attempting to do it with my own fingers.

It isn't that amazing.

I could learn the song if I wanted to. Finger tapping is all flash. It looks and sounds complicated but it's easy as fuck, and for some reason everyone is amazed by it.

While some of it is just purely flashy, there are some awesome finger tappers out there that use a very musical quality to it...example

http://music.download.com/vaccaro/3600-8664_32-100615935.html?jFunc=playList&jParam=song-100736850

(I recommend "Violins" and "Light Years", just click on free MP3 and open it instead, a lot easier than fucking around with their way of streaming it...sorry i couldn't provide direct links)

Here is a video page, although it might not work for you...it used to work for me, not anymore though but here it is

http://www.vaccaro.ca/EVOLUTION_DVD.htm

Eddie Van Halen has influenced a lot of guitar players with his style though... He is a great guitarist, but there are better (better being a subjective term I guess).

You think Eruption is badass, try Eruption on violin!

http://www.bobbyyang.com/video/750kb.htm

Speed can be a bit misleading. It sounds like it would be harder to play fast, but truth is, you can hide messed up notes a whole lot easier than playing slow. Not only that, but it's easy to make a mistake sound like it was done on purpose.

To me, it's all about having a pallate. If someone relies too much on one color, you don't get the whole spectrum. But if someone uses speed to imply intensity and a climax, well it's my favorite thing.

Eruption obviously isn't meant to do that kind of thing. Funny thing is, Eddie apparently messed up on the take that's on the album. I'm not really sure what part though, as it's pretty hard to pick out.


--------------------
The very nature of experience is ineffable; it transcends cognitive thought and intellectualized analysis. To be without experience is to be without an emotional knowledge of what the experience translates into. The desire for the understanding of what life is made of is the motivation that drives us all. Without it, in fear of the experiences what life can hold is among the greatest contradictions; to live in fear of death while not being alive.

no doubt he was good at guitar but his playing doesn't do it for me. it seems uninspired and unemotional. When i lisen to jimi or gilmore or jerry i can feel the mass of emotion and soul they put into the playing that i think eddie lacks. I'll stick with the greats and eddie isn't on my list. :cool:
