This track is a demo of the self-titled track off "5150." Sammy is mostly ad-libbing the vocals and the music is mostly similar to the album but most tracks are missing the solos. The CD I got this off of was called "The Dawn of 5150."

I DO NOT OWN ANY OF THE MUSIC. ALL SONGS ARE USED SOLELY FOR LISTENING PLEASURE.

  • 5150=VH!!!!!!!!!!! Sammy!!!!!!!!!! the best!!!

  • @eggbass It still is the best VH song...

  • @TayzzScottBerr The ones who say the entire Sammy era sucked might disagree with you.

  • @TheCoon71 Just listening to the records tells us that he was using electronic drums. (Real snare, though.) A real shame.

  • @kchamz Right on. I've always felt that way. Eddie is so far ahead of his peers in this regard. Even the little interludes he puts between sections are usually better than other guys' main riffs.

  • Probably a song they had w/Roth : )

  • There just so many rhythm parts in VH songs that interest me more than the solos. 5150 is a great example.

  • it's actually out takes from the 5150 sessions because i have the whole thing on disc i downloaded it from Vuze..At the end of this version you could hear Eddie talking about Alex's double bass fills muddying up the mix and Sammy said he needs to redo his part because he was not sure of the turnaround and where it was going because they didn't have any charts laying out the song being that none of them sight read music ..there are three takes of this and the last one has the lead guitar

  • @mireaux7 its because the tapes get really hissy with time so..

    but its quite a gem

  • @whitedog76 it's such an incredible song man, I love it so much!

    I can't believe i got the top comment either! :D
