Album Description
UK 12-track 2-LP vinyl set includes one bonus track, 'Bitten By The Wolf'. The Rock supergroup of the year comprising of Sammy Hagar, Michael Anthony, Joe Satriani & Chad Smith!! Simply named Chickenfoot, this instant classic album combines all the best elements of the individual members forming this supergroup. Sammy Hagar's voice is clearer and warmer than ever. Joe Satriani's guitar style is showing a rockier side, a heavy sound with great solos in the best guitar hero rock tradition. Michael Anthony delivers his loud and groovy bass line, while his backing vocals, combined with Hagar's lead voice, bring back that great sound of Van Halen's albums. Chad Smith shows all his love for hard hock music with thunderous drumming - a real pleasure throughout the whole album. The album features instant classics, like the first single 'Oh Yeah' or the second single 'My Kinda Girl' [for which a big production video clip is about to be filmed]. From the opening track 'Avenida Revolution' through heavy rock and roll gems like 'Get it On' and 'Soap on a Rope' to the ballad 'Learning To Fall', an hour blast without one filler track. Presented in a picture sleeve with heat sensitive ink so that when you place a warm hand on the cover, it reveals the photos of the band members beneath!

 A long time coming... September 2, 2010

They don't want to be called a supergroup, but I don't know how else to describe them. The dynamics, drive and originality of this collection of guys who know their business can be called nothing less than super. The innovation of Satrioni and Hagar along with the drive of Smith and Anthony create a synergistic masterpiece that makes waiting for their next album seem like a million years away. To listen to Sammy sing you would not dream that he is sixty two...sounds as good as he ever did! A lot of the older musicans and singers from the 70's have difficulty recreating their sound. Not so with Sammy! He's still got it!
 Will The Music Last? August 31, 2010

Maybe my styles of music are changing but I will not enjoy listening to this for very long. The lyrics are not memorable and neither are the riffs. When I compare it to the likes of Zeppelin albums, it lacks a lot. I'm sure it's fun for them and that's great but will the music last for us the public? No, not in my opinion. I've heard they have played some Zeppelin? If so, maybe a tribute album would be a wothwhile thing to do. Because no doubt they have the excellant people to do it.

Sammy's last LP must have been a contract must do, more like a DOO DOO.

Sounds like Van Halen with better musicians ...

If you've been missing straight ahead rock and roll entertainment, then wait no longer, this is it. Chickenfoot's debut album is not an attempt to break new ground or anything else pretentious; instead it's a fun, party record. It really rocks, it's a good time, and isn't that what rock and roll is supposed to be? The "party attitude" displayed herein is what made VH, Sammy the solo artist, the Red Hot Chili Peppers, etc. so enjoyable, but it's been missing from rock for years. I had high expectations, having enjoyed all four of these guys' talents for years, and this effort delivers.
I hear Sammy as the most dominant, but it has a unique cohesion as well. There have been many disappointing "supergroups" over the years, but with this one, I think the egos were checked at the door. The songs dominate; individual talents contribute to the whole effort. Everyone's together, so to speak.
This disk's negative criticism seems to center around its retro style (yes, it could have been recorded in 1985) or the style departure for Satriani. Frankly, I consider these "problems" to be successes or attributes. It's a BAND, and more than that, a ROCK BAND, simple, yet refreshing. In my humble opinion, there isn't nearly enough of this style of music being produced these days. Straight-ahead rock and roll with a fun vibe about sums it up.
