Eddie Van Halen’s playing on the enormously successful 1984 album produced too many instant classic guitar moments to count. Some of the best are found in “Panama”, one of Van Halen’s greatest songs. Panama is classic Eddie Van Halen at his best with rhythm guitar work that seems to be everywhere at the same time while propelling the music forward in an incredibly exciting manner. Eddie’s genius not only lies in his solos, but also in his signature rhythm guitar work, which is just as identifiable as his soloing. Of course when it does get to the solo, Eddie pours on the virtuosity to showcase mind-boggling legato licks, right hand tapping and pinch harmonics all within a highly melodic musical statement. Every guitar player should learn this show stopper. So what are you waiting for? Learn it all now! Good luck!!
