"This album does not make a big world peace statement, thank God!! This album just flat out rocks. Take a ride with Sammy on "I Can't Drive 55" which is a must have for your rock collection."
Great CD From A Great Artist/Human Being

"VOA is Sammy Hagar's seventh great solo album in a row from his Capitol and Geffen years combined, and it's great to see it finally get the deluxe reissue treatment it deserves. It's unfortunate that STANDING HAMPTON and THREE LOCK BOX haven't gotten similar treatment, but that's probably because they're still in print, whereas this one went out of print a few years ago. Fortunately, the good folks at American Beat Records saw fit to reissue VOA, restoring it to Hagar's catalog. Hagar's advocacies of sanctions against countries that falsely convict foreigners, capital punishment/life without parole for kidnappers, and increased funding for law enforcement make this CD an essential purchase for both your ears AND your conscience."
A must have for any Sammy Hagar fan!

"VOA is a high-octane song. Don't make me wait too long is a very moving song. I can't drive 55 is a must for any serious rock collector. Rock is in my blood is true Hagar rock. The blistering energy on this CD is amazing just like the Van Halen album, 5150, and will go down in history as 1 of Sammy Hagar's best albums of all time."
Another great CD by Sammy!!

"This is the third album in the Geffen trilogy of platinum albums that put Sammy into true rockstar status. "I can't Drive 55" and "Two Sides of Love" are the most popular songs here, but "Swept Away" is a great tune!! This music is all Sammy, and while possibly the weakest (if you can even call it that!) in the Trilogy, it stands by itself as a fantastic album. I strongly recommend this one, but don't miss "Standing Hampton" and "Three Lock Box" while you're at it. This music truely withstands the test of time and will make you happy!!"
Sammy's Best

"After years of touring, releasing cd's, Sammy finally acheived commericial success with VOA. His biggest song of his carreer "I can't drive 55" is on here, along with other classic tracks. My personal favorites are "Rock Is In My Blood," "Burning Down The City" and "Swept Away." Sammy joined Van Halen after this cd was realeased. He was at the height of his career as solo artist. Sammy's best cd.
If you get any Sammy cd, this is the one. A timeless classic."
