Angus Young vs Eddie Van Halen

Neither.

Mainstream cringe rock.

Both guitar GODS

Both awesome, neither the best

Don't get me wrong. I like him, but.....3 cord Angus?




Not quite in the same league as Eddie.

Angus all day..

Definitely Angus.

VH does not age well

AC/DC never ages

Angus does not drink or do drugs

here's EVH doing a bump on stage

I love both. Can't argue with you about which band aged better, but if we are talking pure guitar skill, Eddie beats Angus. JMO.

1) Randy Rhoads
2) Eddie
3) About a hundred other guitarists
4) Angus Young

lol if thats your best, i doubt you could name another hundred guitarists

I would have to agree. AC/DC is still going strong. Pure guitar skill, Eddie is better then Angus.

If you count virtuosos

1) malmsten
2) g Lynch
3) r Rhoads

Etc

But if you count feel, you may have Clapton , a young , Gilmore etc

Not in the same class. Eddie hands down!! Jimmy page counld runs circles around anus young too.

Page good, very good.

However, to all who have said young is not in the same league/class, if you listen, young had something, it's this power, this connection with the axe that made whatever he did, sound so good.

Eddy and page had some of it too, but not to the extent of young.


So , it could be said, eddie and page not in the same league/class as young

Angus Young.

Still a Hendrix dude.

Still a Hendrix dude.
Otherwise- Angus - Riff Raff

A young Angus Young was something special.

But also:

Riff Raff is favourite song playing wise, he said.

here's an underappreciated one:
