I can't remember the first time I heard it exactly but I remember how it sounding larger than life with it's heavy, crunchy tone and all the reverb. He has such talented fingers and a great feel for notes, I can never get enough of his style.

I really can't remember it either.
All I know is that to this day Eddie's tone gives me chills.

I don't remember the first time but I do know it did cause me to stop whatever I was doing and [img]images/smilies/icon_bowdown.gif[/img] to the genius coming from that 8-track.

Spanish Fly had the same effect on my. At the time I was playing my sister's spanish guitar and couldn't figure out for the life of me how Ed could make such a geeky instrument (to me) sound so damn cool.
