Where Classic Rock and Metal Music Fans Hang Out

Newly Purchased Cd's

What cd's have you purchased lately? Tonight I bought:
1. Crooked X - Self Titled
2. Uriah Heep - Wake The Sleeper
3. Blackfoot - Strikes
4. Dokken - Lightning Strikes Again
5. Nazareth - The Newz
6. King's X - XV
7. Alice Cooper - Along Came A Spider
8. Mastodon - Crack The Skye

Last week I bought:

1. Journey - Arrival
2. Neil Young - Greatest Hits
3. Black Sabbath - Paranoid
4. Heart - Dreamboat Annie
5. Def Leppard - High 'N' Dry
6. Eagles - Long Road Out Of Eden
7. Night Ranger - Midnight Madness
8. Night Ranger - Dawn Patrol

Some of these I've had before and somehow managed to lose (probably that ex-wife). Most are totally new to me and I can't wait to listen. These will be on my iPod tonight and in my ear starting tomorrow. Maybe I'll actually start posting some reviews one of these days.

Foreigner-Head Games, Double Visison
Heart-Dreamboat Annie
Ted Nugent-Free For All; ▶ Reply to This

And, Dave, my local Walmart had a "cut out" bin also, with some CD's for just $2.50. I only picked up one, but it is a pretty good bootleg type of CD...a Sammy Hagars Greatest Hits Live CD...has songs like "Red", "Trans Am (Highway Wonderland)", "This Planets On Fire", "Plain Jane", and a couple of old Montrose songs, including "Bad Motor Scooter". Even though it seems to be some kind of bootleg, it sounds pretty good. Sammy and Gary Pihl both on guitar...and in one tune they do a guitar lead trade off...very cool. I remember them doing that in 1978 when I saw Sammy smoke Boston! This was well before Sammy ever joined Van Halen. I'm thinking its from the "Street Machine" tour. Very cool find for just $2.50. (anybody else just love cut out bins?).; ▶ Reply to This

Permalink Reply by RJhog on October 27, 2009 at 7:10pm: $7.99. It was downloadable on Sun. and Mon. for 3.99. I'm not familiar with TSO, so this is just an attempt to branch out, ha ha ha.; ▶ Reply to This

Permalink Reply by Jon on October 28, 2009 at 4:16pm: Nah, I did the cheap-o super saver shipping. I don't know when I'll get it, it might be held back until the new Stephen King is released in a few weeks, but that's ok. I gots PLENTY to listen to still.; ▶ Reply to This

Permalink Reply by RJhog on October 28, 2009 at 8:05pm: I listened to it twice today. All I can say is.....WOW!; ▶ Reply to This
