The guitarist of Toto later he published a message on his Instagram channel in memory of Eddie vanHalenwhere he clarified the question using these words: “For the record: since Alex Van Halen has leaving understood that we would have to work together, I think there is a huge misunderstanding. I will never play a guitar note in a VH song! Al asked me to help him examine a lot of incomplete records of AL E and who have never seen the light. For now, it is all that I can think. That I would play something is ridiculous.
