I bought this cassette the first day it was released. I bet I listened to this song a thousands times. Now I have it on cd, I listen to Missing You and Top of the Rock. This is most definitely a collectors piece of music!!!
Is sammy just being sammy. This song is one of the best ever. Wish could have been there live. THE RED ROCKER. Thanks sammy. You got me through a lot of tough times. Thanks to my brother Steve. He asked for Rematch for Christmas, the album still have the sleeve, been a fan since I was 10 years old, now 53 and won't see 54 but would have been over a lot sooner if i didn't have Sammy to lean on. Mas tequila
If you pay close attention, Sammy is always on his game in concert!!! No drunk & staggering around the stage like some other people we know!!! His fans are his first priority!!!
Takes me back to my senior year in High School. Had this on cassette tape and blasted it in my car. Holy shit was that really like, 30+ years ago already?
Still remember the VHalen concert early 90s, Sammy was in great form absolutely killed it , we know Eddie is the star but the whole band were "magic" that night..One of some really good tracks on the album that has stood test of time and if you dont agree "Sit on this and spin around"!!!! .
oh my f------- god!!! and i thought that my life was complete. this, THIS is what i've been missing my whole life. i have always just imagined what these guys looked like on stage. now i can die (hopefully not any time soon, though) in peace. definitely my favorite concoction with hagar and schon in it!! bless you uploader!!
Rock Song by Hagar Schon Aaronson Shrieve I've taken alot of lip Just to be what I am You think it's tough being a kid, huh Well try being a man sometime Everybody wants a little piece Or they try to shoot you down Well I just tell 'em, "Sit on this And spin around." Yeah, whoo It ain't easy speakin' out Some people take it to heart And if you ain't standin' on top of the rock They'll try and tear you apart Me, I took four the hard way I overcame the fear And it got me in a lot of trouble But it also got me here Standin' on top Top of the rock Standin' on top Top of the rock I may not be a business man I ain't no fast slick talker But you just ask the kid in the street He'll tell ya I'm a rocker Everybody wants a little piece And they try to shoot me down Yeah, well I tell them to "Sit on this Huh, and take… More
GuitarWorld: Alex asked you specifically not to write any lyrics that involved Twisters, yet you went ahead and did it anyway. Hagar: I have no idea what they're talking about. Ed and Al told me they didn't want the song to be about Twisters, and I said fine no problem. GW: "Sky turning black/knuckles turning white/headed for the hot zone"? Hagar: Headed for the "suck zone." That lyric had nothing to do with tornadoes.
an above average shredder, I'd say.....I never knew....till I strolled upon HSAS....Sammy can hang with almost anyone....drummer and bass player ain't bad....too bad....could have used more tunes, maybe.....
Almost like Tommy Shaw was in Styx.....He said "I just wanted to rock...and I am being asked to write songs about robots" Damn Yankees..another good super group.
Fucking awesome! Shit" I"ve passed this up many times in the used record stores when scouring...Fuck" am gonna go get this one now!! some badass Rock"n on the way to work with the stereo blasting in the car!! ye ha"
This is So raw! A little off on the intro. Neal goofs on the first solo and on the extended solo in the middle (holding and bending notes). Live is not perfect. Thru it all, Neal holds it together and (rebounds) through out the song and in my opinion is one of my favorite tracks/videos of the HSAS super-group. Neal's tone, playing and feel showed the World he could play "heavy" hard rock, almost metal music. It's just an Awesome site to witness and i'm glad they didn't do away with the clip.
Kenny Aaronson and Michael Shrieve could really hold down a rhythm as well. Fun album. If you want to see Neil really let loose, check out "My Hometown" by this same band.
