UNFUCKINGBELIEVABLE!!!! BLENDER is batting 1000% right now!!!
Oct. 2004 Blender magazine review
SAMMY HAGAR
The Essential RED Collection*
Thirty years of mediocrity from the Cali-rock bozo.
If nothing else, this 20 track
overview of lunk-headed hard rock
proves definitively that Sammy Hagar has mastered the art of party anthems that just aren't fun. The sometime Van Halen singer sums up his three-decade solo career in the 1981 track"There's Only One Way to Rock," because, well, it's clear he only KNOWS one way to rock. The formula's simple: Shriek like a banshee; sing solely about girls, partying and cars (that part's not so bad); and deliver dubiously badass lyrics-"one foot on the brake, and one on the gas, there's too much traffic, I can't pass," from 1984's "I can't drive 55"- with a sledge-hammer's disregard for subtlety.
Hagar even brazenly shills for his own Cabo Wabo tequila on 1999's "Mas Tequila." There's something inherently screwy when your nick-name ("The Red Rocker") and your brand of booze are better known than any song you've created.
