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]
It peaked at #11 on the Billboard Independent Albums chart.[6]
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]
