More VH talk from Eddie Trunk

[Terry]

I don't know.... I think I'd actually take the HSAS album over anything Journey did after that Trump loving pussy Jonathan Cain ruined the band. Ironic that HSAS was more of a "rock" album than either Hagar or Schon was doing in their regular gigs at the time.

Of course the lyrics were still standard simplistic Hagar shit, which was the album's biggest flaw.

Yeah, but Schon's definitive work will always be with Journey.

Which isn't to say HSAS. much like Van Hagar, didn't have some good stuff going on instrumentally. Then Sammy sings his Moon/June/Spoon/Loon lyrics by Hallmark bilge over the instrumentation and the whole biz suffers for it.

What it all boils down to... no matter the musical talent backing Hagar, he's just a mediocre song composer as a lyricist with a limited bag of tricks in the melody department.

It's a big wide, crowded field in the rock musical universe... Hager fits in the middle of the average artist category just fine. He ain't no Diamond Dave...

We should be mad at EVH for putting Hagar in the spotlight. "I Can't Drive 55" was probably going to be Hagar's peak.

Fuck you, Ed! You shoe selling piece of shit!

I think I just channeled our old pal Catfish there...

Sammy shot his wad with Rock Candy and Bad Motor Scooter from the first Montrose album. Everything he did without Van Halen after that is mediocre at best. A couple songs he did with VH weren't too bad but I doubt too many of the regular posters here now would agree.

Other than the word barf, I noticed he's singing in a lower register. Not a lot of high notes and screeching in that one.

Spammy is 72. I respect that he can still sing and perform.

I'm trying to understand Metal heads as a person who plays Jazz, and i noticed something They call it Keyboard It's a Synthesizer not a Keyboard in "Jump".
