EDDIE VAN HALEN

guitarist with rock group Van Halen

“The Dave Clark Five, the one with ‘Glad All Over’ on it. Everybody I knew was into the Beatles, but I was into the Dave Clark Five.

“Later when I started playing guitar, everyone was into Hendrix, but I was into Clapton.

“I don’t exactly know how to explain it, but I never went along with what everybody else went for. I just got off on different things.”
