Not 4 Sale (Sammy Hagar album)

Not 4 Sale is an album by Sammy Hagar and The Waboritas.[3][4] As it was released in the US on Hagar's own Cabo Wabo Music label, problems arose with distribution; the release date passed without copies being delivered to several national retail chains.[5]

For the other album of the same name, see Not 4 Sale (Kardinal Offishall album).

Song information
  • "Stand Up" was originally written by Hagar for the film Rock Star. It appears here with new lyrics.
  • The studio version of "Hallelujah" is included as the only studio track on Live: Hallelujah. Hagar wanted to give the song another commercial chance since the Not 4 Sale release was plagued with distribution problems.
  • "Halfway to Memphis" was later re-recorded as a country song for the Livin' It Up! album.
  • "Whole Lotta Zep" is a re-working/medley of three Led Zeppelin songs: "Whole Lotta Love," "Black Dog," and "Kashmir."

Critical reception

AllMusic wrote: "With quite a few rock veterans trying to update their sound with modern touches and failing miserably come the early 21st century, Hagar wisely sticks to his bread and butter on Not 4 Sale."[1]
