this is awesome. i have this CD in the car when i drive around you get all the different Sammy Hagar eras it is missing a few songs but im not complaining.
This is the perfect collection of songs to showcase Sammy's career. Anyone who is just getting into Sammy should get this. I do agree that there are songs missing (three lock box, baby's on fire, Swept Away) but you can only fit so much on an 80 min CD!
Anyone who is into the Red Rocker will like this collection. I enjoy hearing it.
Just got it today! Nice package but I agree: No " Three Lock Box?? " Still, I love this greatest hits better than the Unboxed one.
It's so hard to sum up a career like Sammy's on one CD, but this one is pretty damn good! I wish they would have included a track or two from "Ten13", but even more confusing is how they left out "Three Lock Box".
