Lost Eddie Van Halen Photos found

Image
Did you know Eddie Van Halen used to have an actual aerial bomb? A couple of days ago, Gibson TV released this video of photographer Neil Zlozower talking about Van Halen, and presenting some spectacular photos. Zlozower was around when Van Halen emerged, and took a lot of pictures of the band in the early days. In the video, he presents some very nice photographs that were taken near the end of Van Halen's 1978 tour. There's an exceptionally beautiful one of Eddie Van Halen on stage, playing, dancing and looking straight at the photographer, who's standing just a few feet away. Zlozower also found some forgotten pictures of the band working on their second studio album - these pictures in particular capture some of the chaotic genius that was at work in early Van Halen. (Including the bomb.) It's a great video, with some nice stories, and obviously some outstanding photographs, by Neil Zlozower. video source: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5DFlzfbAU00 Gibson TV Grea...

"Lethal Exit" on guitar

Image
A sort-of guitar cover of a piece of music from an Amiga demo production in 1992, called "Lethal Exit". "Demos" are programs that demonstrates features of the computer, and skills of software developers. The Amiga computer has a rich demo scene, that has evolved from simple technical demonstrations to highly elaborate pieces of art, with beautiful graphics, elements of storytelling, and outstanding soundtracks. I always liked this section of 1992 demo "Lethal Exit" by demo group "Digital" very much. The musician is REVERSE, from France. It's a very elegant melody - one day I just had to learn how to play it on guitar. Great stuff, REVERSE! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3yh59Bwn97g https://youtube.com/@romaneberle YouTube channel subscriptions are highly appreciated. Thanks very much. :)
