Video: Eddie Van Halen and ‘Crossroads”
You may have heard this solo from Eddie but in the past couple of days it has been brought back around…
In 1984 interview with journalist Lisa Robinson for the show The Inside Track, Van Halen plays a nearly note-for-note rendition of Clapton’s “Crossroads” solos.
“You can play many different styles of guitar, can’t you?” she asks him. “You were telling me before you can play ‘Crossroads’ note for note.” He also said he learned it at an early age.
Hey It’s Ryan, let me start off by saying…YES, I was born and raised in Wixom, Michigan although a lot of listeners like to joke that I am from Arizona. WCSX has always been my radio home, I have been at the station since I was a 23-year-old intern, co-host of Big Jim’s House, married with kids. Family and radio are what I love, but don’t get me started on golf!
Like some, I have become obsessed with golf and you can hear all about that on “The Ball Washer Pod” right here on WCSX. One of my other passions is helping out the Vets. Since coming to WCSX I have been apart of raising hundreds of thousands for local vet groups. Other than that, I am a goofy guy, loving life, my family and talking to you on the radio.
