Sammy Hagar - I Can't Drive 55 (Live at Farm Aid 1985) video free download
Sammy Hagar performs "I Can't Drive 55" at Farm Aid in Champaign, Illinois on September 22, 1985.
A performance from the first Farm Aid benefit concert. Willie Nelson, Neil Young and John Mellencamp founded Farm Aid and serve on the board of directors. The three agreed that family farmers were in dire need of assistance and decided to plan a concert for America. The show was put together in six weeks and was held on September 22, 1985 in Champaign, Illinois before a crowd of 80,000 people. It raised over $9 million for America's family farmers. Performers included Bob Dylan, Billy Joel, B.B. King, Loretta Lynn, Roy Orbison, Tom Petty and many more.
Dave Matthews joined Farm Aid's Board of Directors in 2001 to help further Farm Aid's mission of keeping family farmers on their land.

Awesome performance by the whole group. They were all rocking, kicking ass, & having a ball. They were cranked up for their hard driving, signature song. If it doesn't motivate you, Well ??? The timing of song was when all Americans were all restricted to driving 55 MPH to conserve gas because of the gas crunch in the early 80s.9 years ago

I can only assume that the title of this song is a protest again the rediculous 55mph speed limit on US Interstates?9 years ago

On this day in 1921 {September 10th} near Berlin, Germany the Ayus Autobahn highway was opened to traffic. The highway's outstanding feature was its nonexistent speed limit... And 83 years later Sammy Hagar released the album 'VOA'; the first track on the LP was "I Can't Drive 55". The song peaked at #26 on Billboard's Hot Top 100 Singles chart. 'VOA' stands for Voice of America & was Sammy's last solo album before joining Van Halen... Mr. Hagar will celebrate his 66th birthday on October 13th.10 years ago

What unplugged guitar? Sammy has a radio rig, you can see it plugged in from the side. The mix was just fucking awful on this song, his guitar wasn't loud enough on the middle solo and the other guitarist's vocal was way too loud.10 years ago

Actually the correct statement is: David Lee Roth is a washed up has been. Sammy took care of his voice, Diamond Dave simply can't sing anymore as evidenced by the sing talking I heard at the Van Halen Concert I went to last year (and paid eighty fucking dollars for). Biggest disappointment I've ever had at a concert and I've seen Motley Crue perform with Vince so blown up that he couldn't even complete full sentences of lyrics.10 years ago

Please, tell me you're not serious: looks were just as important back then as they are now. Do you want an example? Look no further than Michael Jackson. His elaborate costumes, his makeup, his repeated surgeries... what do you think they were for, if not for looks?10 years ago
