What Difference Does It Make

You don't need to know anything about the guitar to know that what Eddie Van Halen did when he placed his fingers on those strings was something totally unique. Holly and Dave do their best to unpack the impact he had on popular culture with his guitar playing. When they run out of words they call in their friends, SiriusXM personality, Mark Goodman and journalist Craig Rosen to give their perspective. We made a Spotify playlist of some of our favorite Eddie Van Halen solos. You can hear it from our website This show is part of Pantheon Podcasts. Learn more about your ad choices.
