Paul Talks About Eddie Van Halen

In mid-October a new coffee table photo book on Eddie Van Halen will be released. Paul Stanley is interviewed in the book and he is quoted saying the following:

“Lita Ford and I went to see Ed play with Van Halen one night at the Starwood in 1977, and I was blown away and brought Gene with me the next night. Their charisma, stage presence, and take-no-prisoners attitude coupled with great songs, killer arrangements, and airtight playing made them undeniable. Everything about Edward, from his groundbreaking technique to his hacked-up Frankenstein guitar, made him the heart of the band, and clearly someone who was playing on all levels, by his own rules."

The book can be pre-ordered at Amazon.
