He looks like Tommy Bolin in that pic. He lived a life alot of us can only dream about. Great guitarist, RIP
He was my hero in the early 80s. My school locker was Plastered with magazine cutouts of him. I blew out a couple pairs of headphones listening to VH.
Another sad day in the Rock Universe as we have lost another legend. Eddie is shredding away with his new band with Prince, Tom Petty, Jimi and Freddie Mercury on lead vocals. Neil Peart is on the drum kit.
What else can we pile on? Is there any more **** we can pile on to the top of the outcome of this year?
I’ll never forget it. My friend had an amazing sound system in his home in the hills of Highland Park. One hazy LA Sunday afternoon I’m over there and he says “Listen to this”. Turns it up and “Running With The Devil” starts. I was WHAT!!!!???? We were practically neighbors. RIP, Eddie.
RIP Eddie! such a shock and surprise! such a rock guitar innovator and all around talent-still can't believe this has happened. Godspeed Eddie and Rock on in Heaven
I heard it on the radio while I was at the store, caught me completely by surprise. My prayers and condolences for his family.
