AUDIO: Sammy Hagar premieres acoustic version of Van Halen classic



Sammy Hagar is premiering an acoustic version of the 1986 Van Halen classic, “Dreams”, as a preview to his new album, “Lite Roast.”

Due October 14 - the day after his 67th birthday – the project sees Hagar joined by Waboritas guitarist Vic Johnson to present stripped-down versions of tunes from his lengthy career.

“It was just me and Vic live in the studio with no overdubs,” says Sammy about the album. “Just two guitars, sometimes one guitar, sometimes just one voice, sometimes two voices.”

“Dreams” was the second single released from “5150”, Van Halen’s first album with Hagar; the tune reached No. 22 on the Billboard Hot 100.
