“Eddie Van Helen Shocks fans with Surprise Album Drop:Get Ready for a Rockabilly Revolution!

Eddie Van Halen, one of the most unique and talented guitarists in rock ‘n’ roll, passed away. He was sixty-five. Wolf, the son of Van Halen, verified the information on Tuesday. He posted on Twitter, “My father, Edward Lodewijk Van Halen, died his long and arduous battle with cancer this morning. I can not believe I am having to write this.”

“I could never have asked for a better parent than him. “Every moment we spent together, both on and off stage, was a blessing,” Wolf added. “I do not think I will ever fully recover from this loss, and my heart is devastated.”

Actress Valerie Bertinelli, the ex-wife of Eddie Van Halen, posted their son’s message on her own account along with heart-breaking emojis. The couple had a 20-year marriage. Van Halen passed away on Tuesday at a hospital in Santa Monica, according to TMZ, which cited sources. Wolf was accompanied by his wife, Janie, and brother, Alex.

Van Halen told Billboard magazine in 2015 that he had one-third of his tongue removed owing to cancer that had also migrated to his esophagus.

He stated at the time, “I used metal picks, which are copper and brass, which I always held in my mouth, at the precise place where I got the tongue cancer.” In addition, I essentially live in an electromagnetically charged recording studio. That is one theory, then. I mean, I was using drugs, smoking, and doing a lot of other things. On the other hand, my lungs are completely clear. The physicians think it is conceivable, but this is just my theory.
