December 20, 2021 Record of the Day

Sammy Hagar had been lead singer for Montrose but his fame really took off when he replaced David Lee Roth as lead singer for Van Halen. However, a year earlier in 1984, he scored big on his own with the classic rocker, “I Can’t Drive 55,” a protest song to the lowering of the speed limit. A red vinyl copy of the 12 inch single, as shown here, is worth up to $200.00 today.
