RIP.
Cancer sucks.
Smoking filthy cigarettes has consequences.
At the end of the day, he was no Prince. As in Prince the artist.

King Edward

The most important rock guitarist of all time.

His soloing ... otherworldly rhythm playing ... creativity ... sound/tone ... songwriting ... equipment innovation ... presentation/aesthetic ...

G.O.A.T.

There’s before Eddie and there is after Eddie.

In 1978 Ed erupted from his human form and tapped into a never-before-known plane of alien sounds through six-string virtuosity and inspiration.

Edward was The One.

This one was always my favorite and seemed like such an underrated song.

I wouldn't feel bad. I'm sure he's done more in his life than 100 lifetimes of the average person.  If anyone asked me last week if he was alive I would have just guessed not knowing.

Great post.

Looking at it from a standpoint of talent, creativity, innovation , and body of work, you have to put him at the very top.

The guy smoked those filthy Marlboro red cowboy killer cigarettes for most of his life. Then when he was diagnosed with tongue cancer, he blamed it on putting metal picks in his mouth while playing his guitar. Then the tongue cancer went into remission and the rumor has it that he started smoking again. Just couldn't give up those cigs.

RIP Eddie.  Never could get too much into Van Halen because of the super annoying twat David Lee Roth but they had a few songs I liked.  Eddie was a great guitarist.

True but I was huge VH fan especially since they were from the area where I grew up at. Used to go to their back yard parties when they were the best local band then right after they came out with their first album
