Danger Zone (Sammy Hagar album)

Song information

• "Love Or Money" was a favorite of John Kalodner, which helped serve as a catalyst in getting Hagar signed to the then new Geffen Records.
• The track "In The Night " was inspired by the film Lucifer Rising.
• "Heartbeat" is the second track on which Hagar shares a writing credit with his then-wife, Betsy. The first was "Wounded In Love" on the Street Machine album.
• "Run For Your Life" is a cover of a song from the band Runner's first album, Runner. This version has the former Journey singer Steve Perry on back-up vocals. It was produced by Boston's Tom Scholz, who had originally been signed to produce the entire album but was ordered by his own record label to pull out.
