40 years ago this week, "Why Can't This Be Love" by #VanHalen entered the #Top10 at 9. It peaked at 3 on 17 May 1986. This was their first single featuring #SammyHagar. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IONcKbWeyQM #1980s #MusicHistory #MusicVideo

"I've Done Everything for You" is a song written and performed by #SammyHagar, and released as a single in 1978. A version by #RickSpringfield in 1981 became a top 10 hit in the US. In addition to recorded versions by Hagar and Springfield, the song has been performed and recorded by numerous bands, including #Buckcherry. "I've Done Everything for You" was a staple of Sammy Hagar's live performances as early as 1977. A live version of the song (running time: 3:35).

"I Can't Drive 55" is the lead single and first track from #SammyHagar's eighth studio album #VOA in 1984. Perpetuated by a very successful #musicVideo, it became a concert staple that continued throughout Hagar's tours as a member of #VanHalen. The song is a reference to the since-repealed #NationalMaximumSpeedLaw that set speed limits at 55 miles per hour (89 km/h) in the #UnitedStates. It is the 100th song on #VH1's 100 Greatest Hard Rock Songs.

Out vinyl shopping 🛍️ this morning at Intense Records in Chelmsford got some good bargains. A Marillion album signed by Fish, two prog solo albums from Steve Hackett (Genesis) and Steve Howe (Yes). A free Sammy Hagar album, a Geordie album (Brian Johnson's band before AC/DC). Finally I bought my third Groundhogs album 43 years after buying the first two 😂.
