That song leads off side one followed by two more good songs &#8220;Swept Away&#8221; and &#8220;Rock Is In My Blood&#8221;. Side two also has three good songs,the raunchy &#8220;Dick In The Dirt&#8221;,&#8221;VOA&#8221;,and &#8220;Burnin&#8217; Down The City&#8221;. There are also two power ballad type songs that I don&#8217;t really like,one on each side. Shortly after the release of this record he joined Van Halen.Always liked Sammy Hagar since his days with Montrose. I saw him in concert opening for Boston ,in 1977 I think. The only songs I knew were the two he sang from his Montrose days &#8220;Bad Motor Scooter&#8221; and &#8220;Space Station No. 5&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>After the HSAS album Sammy was back with his usual backing band on this 1984 record.Another good album this has&hellip; <a class=\"read-more\" href=\"http:\/\/www.redaem.com\/divad\/2021\/03\/18\/sammy-hagar-voa\/\">Read more <span class=\"screen-reader-text\">Sammy Hagar-VOA<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-2105","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.redaem.com\/divad\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2105","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.redaem.com\/divad\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.redaem.com\/divad\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.redaem.com\/divad\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.redaem.com\/divad\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2105"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"http:\/\/www.redaem.com\/divad\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2105\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2107,"href":"http:\/\/www.redaem.com\/divad\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2105\/revisions\/2107"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.redaem.com\/divad\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2105"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.redaem.com\/divad\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2105"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.redaem.com\/divad\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2105"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
