Where You At, Baby? - Sammy Hagar episode

Monday, 5 January 2009

Sammy and MattCanadian TV station Much Music has a show called “Where You at Baby?,” where they hunt down musicians from the 80’s and 90’s and find out what they are up to now. They have a new episode featuring Sammy Hagar, which was filmed in Cabo during Sammy’s birthday bash and aired over the Holidays.

They don’t have the episode on their website, but here’s a link to several online-only segments. (There’s about six segments that will play one after the other, with short commercials in between).

For more info on the filming of the episode, check out the blog by Matt Wells, the host of the show, who travelled to Cabo to interview Sammy.


The ORIGINAL version of “Cosmic Universal Fashion”

Monday, 5 January 2009

This video was made by a fan, but the music is the original version of the song, which is not on Sammy’s new album.

“Gossett2006″, who made the video, writes: ‘This version of “Cosmic Universal Fashion is from the Baghdad Heavy Metal Album which Sammy Hagar contributed this (imo) better version of the song, first released in July 2007. This version sounds heavier, different, more complete, and to me, better than the more popular, other version which is the one on the album. Video is of images, complete with Sammy Hagar, the most recent of events, and the election of Obama most notably. The words to this song really describe the events of today with the election of Obama, the problems we have faced, that we still face and the threats that still loom. God Bless the U.S.A., Obama, and Sammy Hagar.’
