  • I wonder if Eddie remembers playing Amarillo,Texas in 78?My first concert..ahhhh

  • @johnduss your fucking luckyyyyyy

  • thanks everyone for the comments! keep on commenting!

    btw fuck the 4 people who disliked

  • I also wanted to mention that I like Sabbath, but they were on their last leg back then. People don't realize what a GIGANTIC LEAP in melodic/technical ability Eddie brought to the world. It is like going from the Wright Bothers plane to an F22 Raptor in one move! The venue is very small here and I got to see this amazing band from 15-20 ft away! My ears had a hissing sound and felt warm inside for a day. NO PAIN,NO GAIN. Wouldn't trade it for nothin' material Thanx again for the video- SteveG

  • @MX1000u2 thanks alot! keep up the comments and the viewing! :)

  • "When Black Sabbath came out to do their half of the show, I wondered WTF!?They were HORRIBLE. Very very loud, but god awful." Me too Saw VH in 78 in Bakersfield with Sabbath. Your remarks could have been written by me! VH were not even listed on the ticket, they were just 'and special guest' Wiped the fucking floor with Sabbath!!! Their set was a perfect reproduction of the entire first album with some very tasty live twists Burned into my memory Thanks 4 this ultra rare footage!!!!!!

  • @MX1000u2 no problem! i want to find more though and i cant:(

  • @ScottKennard5150 yeah back in 78 I bet this would blow minds all over the wall and world Ahahaha!

  • 1:22 - 2:05 is just pure epic. i got the chills when i heard that part

  • fucking explosive. and you can just hear the hendrix influence he's got going on just oozing out of him.

  • @watdascrew BLACK SABBATH REUNION! AND NEW ALBUM NEXT YEAR!

  • HE WAS JUST REALLY BUZZED AND HAD A HAD A MUSIC TEACHER FOR A PARENT.NOT QUITE A RAPTOR....STEVE MORSE YES.LOOK A PAGE BEFORE AND HIS SHRED'S.EDDIE WAS MUSIC SMART AND COULD PICK STRAT.THINK PIANO ON GUITAR .FAST AND HOT.

  • owesome!!!!!!

  • My dad saw Van Halen open for Black Sabbath when he was a kid. Lucky man.

  • About Sabbath - I don't know what people might have experienced but the Never Say Die video from that very year show Sabbath were amazing atleast in that concert and easily a match for VH. The Dirty Woman solo from that set is also better than Eruption. And I like both bands tremendously.

  • Who thumbs downed this video?

    There's always one guy in every classroom who says:

    "Hey teacher,it's Friday . . . you forgot to give us our weekend homework"

    UUUUUUUUgh

    There's always gonna be some jealous 'Guitar Scrooge" on here,who can't take that we are all enjoying ourselves here, listening to Eddie VH rip up the guitar,before pounding away at all that pussy on the road and takin' home a heap of cash.

    SUCKS BEIN' JEALOUS , DON'T IT?

    VH rules
