The sons of a Dutch, saxophone- playing father, the brothers discovered the Beatles, Cream, and other icons as they bound together as musical partners, forming identities for themselves in their adopted home along the way. From the moment their hugely influential 1978 debut landed, Van Halen set a high bar for the rock 'n' roll lifestyle, creating an entirely new style of post -'60s hard rock and becoming the quintessential rock band of the 1980s. But the high-flying success was fraught with difficulty, as Eddie struggled with alcohol and drug addiction while simultaneously battling David Lee Roth over the musical direction of the band, eventually taking the band in an entirely new direction with Sammy Hagar and scaling new heights, before that iteration of Van Halen disintegrated. Acclaimed biographer Paul Brannigan tackles the dramatic story with respect and affection for one of rock's greatest musicians, pairing original interviews with meticulous research to bring the story of Eddie Van Halen completely up-to-date. Unchained: The Eddie Van Halen Story is a remarkable account of determination, genius, and single-minded commitment to the music." -- jacket. 600 10 Van Halen, Eddie,|d1955-2020. 600 17 Van Halen, Eddie,|d1955-2020.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst00130542 650 0 Guitarists|zUnited States|vBiography. 650 0 Rock musicians|zUnited States|vBiography. 650 7 Guitarists.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst00949233 650 7 Rock musicians.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01099238 651 7 United States.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01204155 655 7 Biographies.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01919896 655 7 Biographies.|2lcgft 994 C0|bCKE
