Edward Lodewijk Van Halen was an American guitarist, composer and record producer, born in the Netherlands. He founded, together with his brother Alex Van Halen, the hard rock band Van Halen.
Widely regarded as one of the greatest guitarists of all time, Eddie Van Halen helped popularize the guitar solo technique known as tapping, which allows rapid arpeggios to be played with both hands on the guitar neck.
Van Halen revealed in an interview that he was never able to read music. Instead, he learned by watching and listening. At Bach or Mozart recitals, he would improvise. From 1964 to 1967, he took first place in the annual piano competition held at Long Beach City College. Afterwards, the judges remarked that he had an interesting interpretation of the classical piece.
Eddie and Alex formed their first band with three other boys, calling themselves The Broken Combs, playing at lunchtime at Hamilton Elementary School in Pasadena, where Eddie was in fourth grade. Eddie later said that it was then he first felt the desire to become a professional musician.
He died after spending five years fighting cancer.
