by Stephen Thomas ErlewineAfter releasing several competent but more or less undistinguished albums on Capitol, Sammy Hagar switched to Geffen in 1981 and released Standing Hampton, a polished but tough record that showed a surprising amount of pop songcraft. The added production gloss and improved melodic sense proved commercially successful -- the album was his first million-seller and it cracked the Top 30 -- and artistically successful as well; the record was the most consistent and memorable album he had recorded to date, featuring the singles"I'll Fall in Love Again,""Baby's on Fire," and"There's Only One Way to Rock."
