Sammy Hagar: EVH Is Crap Compared To Satch

Posted: 01 May 2009 10:29 AM PDT

Well, ok, that’s not what he said. This is what he actually said in a phone interview with Brave Words & Bloody Knuckles.

“I’ve made this statement a million times - some people don’t like it, some people do - but Joe is the best guitarist I have ever played with,

It’s the man’s opinion and if people don’t like it them piss on ‘em. Most would argue that Eddie Van Halen is a better player, but how do you really compare the two? Both are great, both are legends, but everyone always wants to pull out the “Eruption card” without even hearing The Satch’s solo albums.

It could be quite a one sided debate if they were really compared in depth. I hear that you can hear a lot of Joe Satriani’s work on Coldplay albums these days.

"American Idol fans have been so loyal to this band, we wanted to give them the first listen to our new single," says singer Chris Daughtry.

Daughtry, bassist Josh Paul, drummer Joey Barnes, and guitarists Brian Craddock and Josh Steely recorded the new album's 10-plus songs in Los Angeles. Boasting a more gritty sound, the new album features a band sharpened by two years on the road, where they've graduated from clubs and theaters to opening arenas for Nickelback and Bon Jovi.

The new album follows the runaway success of Daughtry's 2006 debut, which scored three #1 songs and was the biggest-selling artist release for two years running. The accolades garnered by Daughtry include multiple wins at the American Music Awards, the World Music Awards and the Billboard Music Awards.
