Customer Reviews:

4 out of 5 stars A great collection from his eighties work, missing his early red rocker days, still some good stuff.......2007-01-23

I have had this sammy collection the longest, and it was good for the time. It does skip his early red rocker days after montrose, but it captures his 80's run just prior to and the solo album during Van Halen. These are my favorite songs of his, so its good for me, but Incomplete for his overall body of work. Now they do have the essential red collection out which get back to his Montrose days to present, but it still feels like it is to short to cover his entire work. I really like Three lock Box, which is not included on that collection. So, this one is cheap now on amazon, pick up the red collection and this, and you have a pretty good sammy collection between the two.

1 out of 5 stars Sammy can't write a coherent lyric if his life depended on it.......2006-06-25

Sammy could possibly be the most uncreative rock lyricist to disgrace the genre.

His reliance on insipid love references and black and white analysis and subjects like "I Can't Drive 55" suggest he has never mentally left his teenage years.

His guitar-playing is workman-like at best.

Do not buy this or any other Hagar cd.

Unfortunate that the Amazon site does not allow for a zero star review.

5 out of 5 stars Sammy Hagar Unboxed.......2005-10-08

Sammy Hagar Unboxed is full of great tunes. It collects 10 classic songs from Hagar's years at Geffen records, and adds to new songs High Hopes and Buying My Way into Heaven. All the tracks on Unboxed come from Standing Hampton, Three Lock Box, Voa, and Sammy Hagar a.k.a. I Never Said Goodbye only overlooking HSAS Through the Fire that came out in between VOA and Sammy Hagar. Unboxed contains most of Hagar's hits from 1982-1987. Although Unboxed is a great set, Sammy Hagar deserves much better, and I'm aware of the Essential Red Collection released last year. When are they going to get it right? It's about time they released a double disc set combining his Montrose hits, with his hits on Capitol,Geffen, and MCA Hagar deserves a complation that covers his whole career. This man is a rock n roll icon, over three decades of rock and only a couple of single disc complations for this guy!!

3 out of 5 stars Before you buy this check out new "Essential Red Collection".......2004-08-07

Sammy Hagar's Essential Red Collection will be released on August 10, 2004, so it might be worth your time to look at that compilation before buying this older one. I believe that the "Essential Red Collection" even has at least one track from Sammy's days with Montrose (unless it's a live version of "Bad Motor Scooter".)

One of my beefs with both collections is that "When the Hammer Falls" is absent. Although I'm not completely familar with everything Sammy has done, IMHO that is the best track from his "I Never Said Goodbye" album. But at least the new collection has "Your Love Is Driving Me Crazy," which is inexplicably missing from "Unboxed".

3 stars (because the new compilation is more thorough and longer [20 tracks], and this album is missing one of my favorite Sammy-solo tracks "When the Hammer Falls" and also "Your Love Is Driving Me Crazy" ).

4 out of 5 stars just a question for the more die-hard fans of hagar.......2004-07-20

I have a question about the unboxed cd. I read somewhere that Eddie Van Halen played on some of these tracks, can anyone tell me if this is true??
