Exclusively Van Halen UNRELEASED Photos Of Alex & Edward! Book Sample 10/12/24

https://youtube.com/live/1sJldaoEwY8 Alex Van Halen Releases Rare Family Photos in Tribute to His Brother Edward Narrated by Alex Van Halen and featuring an exclusive, never-before-heard piece of music—the last ever written by the legendary Van Halen brothers—Brothers is an intimate and heartfelt memoir that stands apart from any rock-and-roll biography you’ve ever read. In this open and personal account, Alex Van Halen shares his story of family, friendship, music, and brotherly love, offering a remarkable tribute to his beloved brother and bandmate, Edward (never “Eddie”). Written with acclaimed New Yorker writer Ariel Levy, Brothers is a love letter from seventy-year-old Alex to Edward, written as he still mourns his untimely passing. In his rough yet sweet voice, Alex recounts the brothers’ childhood, first in the Netherlands and then in working-class Pasadena, California. He shares memories of their itinerant musician father and their proud yet practical Indonesian-born mother—the kind of mom who insisted her sons “always wear a suit” no matter how famous they became. She was a woman who took pride in her boys but wasn’t shy about taking leftovers from Hollywood dinners. Throughout the memoir, Alex paints a vivid picture of their rock-and-roll journey: the musical politics, infighting, and plenty of bad-boy behavior that came with stardom. Yet at its heart, this is a story of brotherhood and an enduring bond. Alex reflects on the unique connection he shared with Edward, writing, “I was with him from day one. We shared the experience of coming to this country and figuring out how to fit in. We shared a record player, an 800-square-foot house, a mom and dad, and a work ethic. Later, we shared the back of a tour bus, alcoholism, the experience of becoming successful, of becoming fathers and uncles, and of spending more hours in the studio than I’ve spent doing anything else in this life.” For the first time, Alex also sets the record straight about Edward’s life, his struggles, and the circumstances surrounding his death. The book features never-before-seen family photos, recently released by Alex, offering an intimate glimpse into the brothers’ private lives.
