Song information

  • "Keep On Rockin'", a Hagar original, was covered by Bette Midler on the classic soundtrack to The Rose, albeit in a vastly different version.
  • The track penned by Van Morrison, "Flamingos Fly", was not released by Morrison until a year later on his 1977 album A Period of Transition. He gave the song to Hagar after they ran into each other at The Record Plant during the recording of "Nine..." Morrison recorded a demo for Hagar which producer John S. Carter, Jr. and Hagar intended to produce as a duet with Morrison, a move which Morrison later rejected. Hagar then re-recorded the song from scratch.[2]
  • The track penned by Fleetwood Mac alumnus Bob Welch, "China", was not released by Welch until after this release. Welch included his version of the track on the 1979 album Three Hearts.
  • "Young Girl Blues" is a Donovan cover.
