New Eddie Xmas tune is fantastic...

[LittleGuitars99]

Found it on KaZaa its under Steve Lukather Merry Axemas Vol2, they have it down as Steve Lukather, but its a no-brainer that it is Ed, you can tell by the sound, the plaiying and his choice of notes, very melodic and some cool rythym playing, drums aren't bad either, some double kick work on it, but good suff Ed..

nope lol, it´s not van halen it´s lukather...

i have the track too, it just have the name merry axemas2 in the title but it isn´t... the real name of this piece is "the christmas song" and it´s from lukather, the song with ed on it will be released next year ...

oh, and by the way, the incredible double-kick is done by the master simon phillips... [img]graemlins/thumb.gif[/img] [img]graemlins/thumb.gif[/img]

hehe, yepp... baluchitherium... (did i spell it correct?lol) there was this rumor that lukather plays on that thing... but he didn´t... he did some vocal tracks for balance, thats all

but it´s strange, balance and some of lukathers work around 94 sounds very similare...

Actually here is a quote from Steve's website regarding the release Eddie will be featured on:

July 2002 ( News )

In June Lukather finished the recordings for the Xmas covers album.
"The album called Santamental will be released later this year. It will also feature a new guest guitar spot from Eddie Van Halen."

Besides the track that littleguitars99 is refering to is on the album called (Various artists - Merry Axemas )

This is NOT the Santamental album, yet!
