Beat it ! - solo by Evaldo Devellis

Actually, nobody beats Eddie´s original BEAT IT solo !
For me it is simply spectacular and unique, showing why Eddie is a special talent in the guitar world.
Quincy Jones and Michael Jackson took a skeleton version of "Beat It" up to Eddie Van Halen's place as they wanted him to solo over the verse section. However, he played over a section that had more chord changes. So to fit his solo to where it went in the song, they had to cut the tape which took a lot of time to synchronise together.
The great guitar man Steve Lukather played lead guitar on the original track.

THE TABS...
I don´t have any tab about this solo.

Why is there always just one dickhead who has to say its fake.

"Hey um, excuse me, im like, waaaay smarter than everybody else in the whole world, and nobody can be better than me at anything ever, so um, this isnt real."

Fuck off kr002, nobody cares that youre able to talk shit. Any fucking four year old can do it. Bitch.
