[Webbie]

Today’s Top 6 @ 6 features 6 of the greatest guitar players in honor of Eric Clapton‘s birthday (he’s 66). Eddie Van Halen‘s ground breaking one take solo on Michael Jackson‘s Beat It is one of the most iconic of all time, but you’ve never heard it like this. All the other tracks have been mixed down so you can hear just Eddie and his guitar laying down those classic licks.
