**Little Dreamer** · 10.14.18, 09:16 AM

Pretty cool post by VHND - the compilations of high notes at the end is really cool:

I saw that very late last night/early this morning.
Some cool entries on that list, yet was surprised to see that Dreams was absent. Also, I've never heard either of the Chickenfoot tunes...

I can't stand his straining and screeching on Dreams, but some awesome favorite high notes by Sam off the top of my head would be the scream during the outro to "5150" and the harmonizing scream he does with Ed's guitar at the beginning of the guitar solo.

You're in for a treat!

I've heard select tracks, yet never the whole thing or later stuff.

Did you hear, Sam and Mike are on it?

Just checking.

I've said before that I don't follow Sammy very much outside of his time in VH. I wasn't kidding. I like what I've heard, yet it's probably 1/10th of the stuff he's done since '96.

Missing the Feelin' ending.

Easily one of his best screams.

5:52

That list is shit. No dreams? That’s the highest Sam has ever been.

Except for the time he said that 5150 was better than any album that Van Halen and he had ever recorded combined. Or the time he said a new Chickenfoot album was better than Led Zeppelin. Or the time he said that every member of Chickenfoot was better on their instrument than their counterpart in Van Halen. High Hopes, indeed ...

I always thought this was a pretty sweet sam scream at 4:48, always wondered if it was an overdubbed vocal in the studio (as mentioned in the book) or whether he regularly did this in the outro:
