Rest in Peace Eddie Van Halen..
This brings back memories of when I was in the U.S. Navy. The club would erupt when this song popped up on the video jukebox
"...From McDonnell Douglas, Warner Bros. obtained decade-old stock footage of the Blue Angels flying the A-4F Skyhawk II and decided that Van Halen’s soaring track “Dreams” was a perfect match. Since Van Halen was not footing the bill, the band gave their approval. The Navy was also pleased to assist the effort because the video would help commemorate the Blue Angel’s 40th anniversary. Once all parties were in agreement, the quick-cut video of the Blue Angles executing their signature maneuvers was edited in three days."

He sure was good. I liked his shredding stuff fine enough, but he had an even greater sense for crafting incredible rock melodies that showed off his crazy skills while remaining easily listenable. He anchored a band that sounded so good even through a member change or two.
Sucks. Damn cancer. Another one gone too soon.
Rest well, sir.
