Sammy is not a stuck up rock star , the dude is living it up by enjoying life and laughing and having fun !!!

Thank you Sammy for bringing Brian

[@edwardcowardin4014]

I was fortunate enough to meet Sammy Hargar and talked with him for about 10 minutes and I honestly say he is one of most down to earth famous people I ever met. He was like talking with a friend you've known for years. GOD BLESS YOU SAMMY!!!!

[@jimistheman9732]

Joe Walsh too. Nicest guy in rock.

[@AntonioBarsanio]

How nice to meet someone of that caliber in music.

[@justinspivey8728]

I met Sammy once and I’m like what do I say to to the dude from Van Halen and I quickly say, I was listening to Montrose this morning and he goes, no shit, I was just jamming some Montrose tunes with Chickenfoot. He was so nice!

[@DanStratocaster1]

Sammy Hagar is one of my favorite people of all time. I’m 59, I’ve met thousands of people. Sammy is a great person. I listen to all eras of his music. Montrose, Hagar, Van Halen, and Chicken Foot.

Joe Walsh’s thoughts on sobriety are sobering, & I’d say he just about summed it all up! I know what he means about you working for “it” & “it” not working for you anymore. Wise words from a guy that’s been thru it all… thanks Mr. Walsh 🙏

[@ValHemi265]

So glad Brian mentioned Rory Gallagher....one of the greatest (rock/blues)guitar players i've seen.

In the late 1970s till 1981 I was Michael Bloomfields milkman. I had the key to his house and would let myself in and put the milk in his refrigerator. He always had salad bowl on his kitchen table with weed in it and told me to twist one any time I wanted, which I did numerous times.

[@RobertFairweatherMusic]

Joe Walsh is one of my favorite guitarists of all time. I love his tunes, his attitude, his guitar playing and that he made it back from the brink of hell and he's still here. Brian May rocks too. The most rare occasion you can see Brian flummoxed is on his clip with Les Paul. Joe Walsh makes his cameo in the Blues Brothers movie at the end while Jailhouse Rock is jammed by the band.

[@davidsummerville351]

There is life after addiction. Its so true . Its not impossible and its awesome. Brian mays guitar tones are the standard to which all should aspire to

[@bshingledecker]

Joe was the key speaker at Founder's Day (2017?) which is an annual event celebrating the origins of AA in Akron Ohio. He, like so many others, learned the hard way, but are in recovery and regaining their lives. Much wisdom is in his words.

[@ozgreeny]

I just love these Sammy interviews....

[@1Moonchild]

Watching this reminds me of how Rory Gallagher expressed that he just wanted to keep playing to an older age. Saw him perform in '78 and no other performance has ever come close to that experience. Miss him every day. Really.

That's AWESOME!!!! these guys are some of best that the classic Rock genre gave us. Joe Walsh is so unique and a massive talent and says it the way it is. James Burton he no doubt has played this song before. being he was in the TCB band Elvis's band. Brian May he's amazing, and he's so humble to get to keep doing what he so much loves to do,and he does it so well. and Sammy Hagar he is of course the red rocker. and he's still going strong, and it's so great that he's gets together with all of his good friends. I could watch this over and over and over again simply fantastic.

[@richtygart6855]

Joe Walsh wrote the funniest two dry humor lyrics in rock-n-roll history with perfect comedic timing. It's the timing that made them so funny.
