I use to hear Jump always playing. When I heard he died I had to listen to “Runnin’ With the Devil” and “Jump” again.

Oh damn, he's one of my guitar heroes.
I wasn't even aware he had cancer.
Eruption is legendary

I heard Jump so much back then that I can't stand it to this day. I'm good with most Van Halen, but I'll be just fine if I never hear that one again. Panama runs a close second.

Definitely inspired a lot of young guitarists, myself included. One of the greats.

Meh... He sucked after 1984, turned into a crazy meth head for 20 years and wasn't really that good...

RIP Eddie. Eruption/You Really Got Me was one of the first handful of mp3s I first downloaded from Napster.
