Instant Classic. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KKkxxLEBwBo)
The best love song I've heard in a long time.
That's also Chad Scott from the Chili Peppers on drums.
Enjoy. :)

I like all 4 of these guys...but I gotta admit I was hoping for more, Scott.

I still think Chad Smith is actually Wil Farrell. It is like Superman & Clark Kent.

But Satriani can play his a$$ off...not on this album.

Try Soap on a Rope. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pHqA6HtVU70)
A little more Joe in that one. It'll make you feel a lot better. :)
The rest of the album is a lot less teenage girlsy than "Oh Yeah".
I liked it though, mainly because of the lyrics.
Avenida Revolution is a bit more Satriani saturated, too.
I'm just relieved to get some new stuff I can listen to. I've been listening to Big Head Todd and the Monsters so much that I wanna go plant flowers.

I was intrigued by this lineup when I first heard about it, but I've been unimpressed with everything I've heard. I'm not a big Hagar fan, and his brand of cheese is strong on this album.

Satriani is a great player, but too clinical for my tastes. It's got no soul.

This is what a Super-group should be..... Great musicians with great attitudes.... Try this one .... More of a classic satch sound...:banger

My argument for the most soulful guitar player ever...
Here's a bit of Jimmy Page before he found smack. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yKO1awyW95Q)
After about 20 years of heroin, he just got better and better. I watched him do a solo while he played with Paul Rogers once. It was at the Civic Arena in Burgh.
He was about as big as a toothpick, hitting it so hard that snot flew out of his nose and put his cigarette out.
Never missed a note.
He just got better.
He's got more range and more style and more mood than anyone I can think of. He made the guitar do things that just can't be duplicated.
I love Stevie Ray, Clapton, Beck, Satriani, Jimi, but none of them can touch Jimmy.

Here's a Midnight Moonlight vid (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qwgIokqJleY). The sound is awful, and it's a poor example. It's still awesome.

I have to agree this has Sammy stamped all over it. I like Sammy and I will get this Album but it doesn't light my soul on fire by any stretch.

Satriani is one of my all time favorites, I disagree that his music has now soul that it is all technical but to each there own.

I hate to say it, but this is just VanHager.

I was a diehard Sammy hater for years. :)
I miss old Van Halen so much that this Chickenfoot is a relief. :D

Chad is really talented drummer and Satriani is wicked on guitar....so maybe I had greater expectations before listening to it? It wasn't bad, but left me wanting as well

And who's that playing bass guitar? The original bassist from VH ....Michael Anthony.

And the brotherhood connection continues to grow as I discover Shilala is an ORIGINAL VH fan :banger

Sadly, I'm in the "Meh." club on this one, as well. I've heard about half of the record and the recording quality and performances are 'best of career'-level for these guys. However, to my ears, the music, itself, just kinda sits there.

Great sounding record, but no dice. It's all about the writing.

One more vote for the "I was expecting more..." crowd. I like older Hagar, and love Satch, but I'm kinda "meh" with this offering. I don't think I'd spend a lot to see them in person.

I heard the whole CD while enjoying cigars at a friends house. It was completely forgettable and generic. I can't remember one song from that album right now. It is a case of the parts not equaling the potential of the whole.

Have you seen Eddie's shoe line... They only have 1/2 a tongue.... Sorry had to go there... I'm still a bit bitter about the whole VH brothers breaking up VH...
