Sammy Hagar recalled the ups and downs that he experienced during his years with Van Halen. Hagar has released a five-LP Van Halen box set called "The Collection II."
Though the union produced four multi-platinum albums including 1986's "5150," 1988's "OU812," 1991's "For Unlawful Carnal Knowledge" and 1995's "Balance," the "Van Hagar" era ended with an acrimonious split between the band and the singer in 1995, but they had mended their relationship in the years since.
