Well, it's Highway Star, Mom! You don't remember? I was 12, the funny smell wafting out of my room? That noise out of my little portable record player? You don't remember...? I do! How could I forget?
I can't believe what I'm listening to >.< my favourite guitarrist of all time covering my favourite song of one of my favourite bands of all time.. am I dreaming O.O ??
This is super!!!! thank you for posting Joe si playing the organ part on the guitar with a special effect isn't he? it sounds so powerful so fresh, Sammy is a great singer he sings it with his own trademark. It sounds amazing!!!! thank you!!!!!!!!!!!!
CHICKENFOOT COOKS.. LOVED THE ORIGINAL BAND-WISH THEY WOULD DO MORE... SATRIANI SMOKES ON THIS - 'LIVE' HERE.......... HE PLAYS THE ORGAN PART WITH HIS GUITAR.
Trying to make kids understand that not only is the baby of the group (i.e. MY age is CHAD SMITH from The Red Hot Chilli Peppers) is over 50 and the bassist (Michael Anthony) has ONLY 35 years experience with a little group called Van Halen... oh and by the way... Joe Satriani? Who? What? Surfing With The Alien Where? The lead singer is 65 years old?!?!?!?!?! Did I forget to mention THIS IS LIVE? Kids. What can you do? LOL
Great cover! the only thing (I must be whine right is you tube?) is the guitar solos, satriani is a shredder but the man can't bend it like Ritchie or beckham
Sammy Hagar IS a good singer, don't misunderstand. He ruined Van Halen, but he has a great voice, and a lot of talent, and I must say I do love this cover.
+James Matthews your wrong. Eddie Van Halen ruined Van Halen. Listen to the cd 1984. To me it sucked compared to old Van Halen. Roth didnt like it either. When Sammy joined all he did was improve the New style Eddie had wanted to play. The cd 5150 was a BIg improvement over the 1984 cd. All Sammy did was keep Van Halen popular much longer than they would have been without him. He is one of the greats among live performers. Look at them now without him live. They suck. They are not even close to as good as with Sammy live.
PAUL MITCHELL- I totally agree: Ed's megalomania, fueled by massive amounts of cocaine and alcohol (co-occurring condition) and his insecurities ruined Van Halen. Dave WAS a great front man, but he lost his voice decades ago. And his schlock on stage is beyond tired. Sammy can STILL SING, not only his VH songs, but Dave's VH songs. The current line up is unwatchable. Oh, this is one of the best versions of this song I've heard.
I may be mistaken, but I believe the solos are the product of Joe Satriani; Sammy may be a riff-meister, by Joe is among the top 2 or 4 guitar gods in terms of solos. That's an area that will be as far beyond Sammy Hagar as it will always be to me, and I can play multiple instruments. Joe (Satch) is the schit!!
This is awesome. Saw them live in Holland a couple of years ago, Great band! Especially Satch
Like, love it, need it. Loved this song since 1973. Turn it up to 11

Wow, awesome cover. Satriani really shines on guitar.

yea--the vocals on Gillian really kick Ass--good cover--but then musicians are good.
Is there a studio version or just live?
Satriani crack

If Eddie Van Halen enjoys that era of Van Halen, which he did and still does, he didn't ruin the band. He ruined your image of it. Get over it.
No but it does out of Ritchie " fuckin' " Blackmore's!
Sammy Hager... no! This shit don't fly, sorry classic song and leave it alone.
I'd rather the Metal Church's one
pu
This cover is just plain bad... ass!!
