When Sammy Hagar first joined Van Halen they called it Van Hagar. And in a way it was correct, but in an another not at all. Sammy Hagar definitely was a strong front man before joining. I saw him play live several times. On of the best concerts ever. He played forever, had great songs, great camaraderie with the crowd. That continued when he played with Van Halen. Seeing them live after Sammy it was different, yet still Van Halen. Some of the greastest songs came out of that pairing. No surprise. This pick shows Sammy had some great songs with Montrose, in his solo 80's, with Van Halen and afterwards when he left the group. Too many to do it justice really. I didn't include any of the later Cabo Wabo stuff and just used touchpoints everywhere else, but you'll get the idea. Again, like with Roth, there are two doubles between Eddie's pick and Sammy's. It had to be.
