Is it available on CD?
I'm checking iTunes right now... meh! That LP isn't on there but... dang striking out everywhere...

I have a music collecting, er, problem, so I had a look around for that album for fun. I can't vouch for any of these sellers but anybody who really wants a physical copy can do more due diligence.

My guess for its unavailability on streaming services is that it was released on a small independent label that was not handled by a big distributor.

(note that this website appears to belong to one of the musicians on the recording!)

(this listing claims to be the record label)

ETA: it looks like Norman Blake is on Bandcamp. While this specific release isn't on his page, he does provide a Contact link.

A lot of good 80’s rocking with Ronnie Montrose’s best band imo Gamma.

Going way back on this one! I know a lot of people have mixed feelings on Sammy, I dig him and I really liked him in Van Halen. I know that is blasphemy in some areas. Just don't by his tequila. :);)
Never tried his Tequila but there is a lot of money to be made by some celebs in that business. In 2017 George Clooney sold the brand Casamigos which he founded with Randy Gerber (husband of Cindy Crawford) for a cool $ one billion. There is a nice story about how George then surprised 14 of his old friends who he felt really supported him in his early struggling actor days. He invited them to a dinner party at his home where he then presented each of them with a Tumi suitcase. Each suitcase contained
$ one million in cash. He had already arranged to pay the income tax or gift tax each friend would owe as a result of receiving the cash.
 
I like a lot of SH stuff but I thought he didn’t fit VH at all. Just seemed a wrong fit.

I get it... a lot of folks think that... I liked him. Still my favorite are the first few albums by VH with David in the band, but Sammy was good. Never did see them live though. Would have liked to have seen them with either singer in their hay day!

Holy smokes!!! Ryan Reynolds did the same with his Gin, made a few bucks! Sammy's Tequila is down right awful! I didn't even make a margarita with it! LOL!

That story of what George did. WOW. That is freaking awesome!
 
I never heard of this fellow until yesterday when I saw him interviewed on France24. He has various styles and sings in a number of languages.
