Sammy Hagar, as he often does during interviews, turned heads recently when he said he'd written a song inspired by a dream he had about Eddie Van Halen, and had tapped Joe Satriani to bring it to life. Now, the Red Rocker has released the song, Encore, Thank You, Goodnight, and it represents a surprise new chapter in the Van Halen storybook.

Sammy Hagar‘s guitar playing on his upcoming single "Encore. Thank You. Goodnight." was divinely inspired. That is, if you are one of the many who believe that his late Van Halen bandmate Eddie Van Halen was our greatest six-string god.
