Happy Birthday, Eddie

by VHND — updated January 26, 2010 79 Comments

Today, January 26, 2010, Edward Lodewijk Van Halen celebrates his 55th birthday. We thank him and the band for all the wonderful music they’ve given us (over 100 songs!) and for touring the world no less than 14 times to play it for us.

Here’s a soundboard recording of Eddie, Alex & Michael jamming. This was probably recorded during a full-stage rehearsal for Van Halen’s massive 1984 tour. (This full 10 minute clip hasn’t been on YouTube until now).

Here’s a two part soundboard recording of Eddie Van Halen jamming alone. This was probably recorded during a full-stage rehearsal for the 1984 tour. Never on YouTube until now!
