"Van Halen might not have been the same group without Ted Templeman, the producer who discovered and signed them, then produced their greatest albums. He tells GUITAR PLAYER how it all began with a friendly tip: "Ted, these guys are hot!" Written by Ken Sharp.
Join PJ Pat and as he reads and comments on this article titled ON FIRE taken from Guitar Player Magazine for Oct. 2023.
Van Halen, the trailblazing American rock band formed in 1972, revolutionized the music landscape with their innovative guitar wizardry and charismatic frontman. Led by the incomparable Eddie Van Halen, whose virtuoso guitar solos became legendary, the band achieved colossal success with hits like "Jump" and "Panama." The distinctive vocal prowess of David Lee Roth added a flamboyant and energetic dimension to their sound, making them quintessential figures of the 1980s rock scene. With an electrifying stage presence and a fusion of hard rock and pop sensibilities, Van Halen became synonymous with the epitome of the stadium rock experience. Despite lineup changes over the years, the band's impact on rock music endures, solidifying their place as one of the greatest and most influential acts in the history of the genre.
