Primary Sammy.......2001-12-29

Fresh out of Montrose and before he realized
that he couldn't drive 55, Sammy brings us
Nine On A Ten Scale, a collection of the basic
rock tunes of the time, usually avoided by the
Best-Of sets because these songs are just not
"Pedestrian" enough for the mainstream!

The Purest Sammy of All!!!.......2001-02-08

Sammy Hagar burst onto the music scene as front man and vocalist on the most incredible rock album produced in the 1970's. Though the San Francisco based band, Montrose, would go on to do little else, the debut album in 1973 introduced the world to the vocal talents of Sammy Hagar. After a second album with Montrose, Sammy stepped out on his own and the results was Nine on a Ten Scale though to all who have had the pleasure of hearing it, I don't believe anyone would rate it less than a 10! The songs are pure Sammy Hagar... His pre-Van Hagar years would feature many songs which his fans felt prostituted his talents. But on this album tracks like Silver Lights, one which explores Sammy's obsession with science fiction and fantasy, and the Van Morrison cover Flamingo's Fly showcase the many faces of his solo career. The 1976 Bammy Winner as best artist says it all. For anyone wishing to truly capture the essence of Sammy Hagar this album is a must to say the least. Every song is unique and yet each is right on target. A cross between heavy metal and power pop, the mixture is incredible. And like a young Elvis, this early release showcases a raw power within the voice of a future legend.

Early Sammy.......2000-07-31

I'll keep it short. Although obscured by the name of Montrose Sammy Hagar was always the driving force. Thus the departure. Sammy was,is and always will be the 4/4 rocker. you can count on guitars, drums, and awesome vocals. Young Girl Blues is the epitomy of this. If your a Sammy fan you'll love it.
