<p><strong>Get a completely new look at guitar legend Eddie Van Halen with this groundbreaking oral history, composed of more than fifty hours of interviews with his family, friends, and colleagues.</strong></p> <p>When rock legend Eddie Van Halen died of cancer on October 6, 2020, the entire world seemed to stop and grieve. Since his band Van Halen burst onto the scene with their self-titled debut album in 1978, Eddie had been hailed as an icon not only to fans of rock music and heavy metal, but to performers across all genres and around the world. Van Halen’s debut sounded unlike anything that listeners had heard before and remains a quintessential rock album of the era.</p> <p>Over the course of more than four decades, Eddie gained renown for his innovative guitar playing, and particularly for popularizing the tapping guitar solo technique. Unfortunately for Eddie and his legions of fans, he died before he was ever able to put his life down to paper in his own words, and much of his compelling backstory has remained elusiveーuntil now.</p> <p>In <em>Eruption,</em> music journalists Brad Tolinski and Chris Gill share with fans, new and old alike, a candid, compulsively readable, and definitive oral history of the most influential rock guitarist since Jimi Hendrix. It is based on more than 50+ hours of unreleased interviews they recorded with Eddie Van Halen over the years, most of them conducted at the legendary 5150 studios at Ed’s home in Los Angeles. The heart of <em>Eruption</em> is drawn from these intimate and wide-ranging talks, as well as conversations with family, friends, and colleagues.</p> <p>In addition to discussing his greatest triumphs as a groundbreaking musician, including an unprecedented dive into Van Halen’s masterpiece <em>1984</em>, the book also takes an unflinching look at Edward’s early struggles as young Dutch immigrant unable to speak the English language, which resulted in lifelong issues with social anxiety and substance abuse. <em>Eruption: Conversations with Eddie Van Halen</em> also examines his brilliance as an inventor who changed the face of guitar manufacturing.</p> <p>As entertaining as it is revealing, <em>Eruption</em> is the closest readers will ever get to hearing Eddie’s side of the story when it comes to his extraordinary life.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。
