Arguably the best electric guitar player in history. RIP. :(

Long illness, but still sad news. Many arguments as to who was the best, but he was certainly way up there - the classic for me being "Eruption". Got to see Van Halen (the group) in Cardiff in the early 90's which was quite an experience.

Thanks for the memories - R.I.P.
