Interesting video. I was born in 85 lol😂

For cheaper people! Hilarious. I'm going to remember that a great sense of humour is a sign of intelligence. Your choices get my seal of approval. I love the Unforgettable Fire. OK, I will admit that I have never heard all of Asylum.

Killer video Gary! Great choices especially Asylum one of my favorites!! Thanks for the shoutout brother, and great job on the “cheap contest “ 👍🤘🤘

I was born : ) great choice!

Well well well, a bit of cheating but with “Humour” which makes you “Smart” 😂 Great choices, and yes MGK is one of my faves and one of the first channels I followed about a year ago… Always a nice listen ✌🏼🎶

Great picks! I always thought that Ramones cover was cool. Thanks for having the bravery to show U2. I love that album, pretentious or not. I just picked up that JJ Al bum a few months back. Great entry!

Great response Gary! Damn, I MISS those those rock magazines in the thumbnail! CIRCUS, Hit Parader etc.🤘🏻

The truth is out, I'm a cheap bastard. "No false praise"..."I don't think there's any need for that, but I'll go ahead anyway" 😂 The Ramones! I saw them in 1987! The place was so hot, the walls were sweating. I think I need to expand my Joan Jett repertoire as I had no idea she had so many albums. You've shown a few over the past couple of years including that one that I didn't know. The Brian Eno/Daniel Lanois production on Unforgettable Fire took U2 in a new direction. I love the first 5 albums! I have most of the Robert Plant solo stuff including that one. My copies are all on compact disc as that was all I was buying at that point. "Little by Little" is an excellent song as you said. A lot of folks rank Powerslave as Iron Maiden's best releases! Good video Gary!

This was a great discussion. I didn't know about U2 until The Joshua Tree and got into The Unforgettable Fire after that. I'm impressed that you were an early fan. 😀 It's been a long time since I had thought of the song Tears Are Falling but that was "my song" my sophomore year of high school. Paul's vocals are incredible. Take care. ♥️🤗

I’m not into physical media, but the girls I date do. Cool video idea

Great response, Gary!!! Mike rules. Ramones!!!! One of my favorite albums by them. I’m with you, I like early U2 the best too. I dig that Robert Plant album. KISS!!!!!!!!

Hey Gary! I wasn't doing it in 85, but thanks to you, I now listen to 'Powerslave' and other Maiden albums. I have the Plant, KISS, and U2 albums you showed, but I wouldn't be surprised if I've gone 10 years without listening to them. I'll check the spreadsheet and let you know in the text thread. I need to do this today. Good luck in the "faux-contest!"

"It's kind like for cheaper people" LOL!!! Too Funny G! All Solid picks brotha!!! Great stuff!

All great records and I agree about u2

Hey Gary. Solid picks from 84...um...er, 85 man! One of the only U2 I have, but indeed love it. Joan Jett. What's not to like?!! Saving the best for last. Powerslave!! YES!! I wore that cassette out probably by 1985. Lol! You need that on vinyl my friend. Good stuff Gary. Cheers bud! 🍻✌️🤘🎶🤘

Cool choices for the 1985 thread. The one that I go back to that you showed is U2's The Unforgettable Fire. A great band in peak form.

Another good idea for a thread by MGK Colton! I absolutely love "Glorious Results of a Misspsent Youth! It may quite be my favorite or one of my top five favorites of hers! Hope you're doing well my friend!

I hope that Mike wasn't disappointed that you didn't show any jazz. I know that I was probably listening to that U2 back in 1985. I liked your definition of what a "thread" really is.

Like the new camera setup Gary! Shows more of the collection. Great picks too!

Can you find the old goats channel?

Well……this opened my eyes Gary! I didn’t think Tim McGraw was my sort of thing, but I thought his show was fantastic. Some really great riffs, great band and the atmos looked brilliant. The whole show including lighting and back screen looked excellent. Really good stuff……that I didn’t appreciate before! Mike

Hey Gary! Great thread response. Chris is the master of threads for sure. Some awesome records you’ve shown here! I’ve got Assault Attack and I also just picked up the MSG self titled debut from 1980. Great Stevie Nicks albums. I need to check out that Robert Plant album. Nice signed Stormbringer! Really cool stuff man, and sweet shirt! Take care! -Chris.

Hey Gary. Some really cool concert clips of those two legendary bands. Great that you and Randy were able to meet in person. Two of my favorite people in the VC. Your granddaughter is adorable. Awesome video!!!

Hey Gary some awesome additions to this thread. I've admittedly never given Robert Plant's solo career much of a chance but I'll have to check that album out. Cheers to ya my friend!

Catching up here. Love the review and highlights. Thank you so much for sharing some clips from the show. Great stuff, Gary! 😊

We used to see Lee Aaron everywhere back in the day St Catharines , Thorold , Niagara Falls , i used to be younger than this

I am old , so Beatles , Animals Lovin Spoonful and the Kinks

Sometimes , not so much , John Sebastian , John Fogerty , and of course Robbie Robertson

Looks like you had great seats. He sounds a little harder rocking than I was expecting. 🤟🏻🤟🏻

Looks like an amazing show! McGraw’s voice sounds strong! Thanks for sharing!

Gutsy move putting country music on the channel - it's a kiss of death round my way! :-) I think it's a true indication of McGraw's status in Country music that he, along with only Dwight Yoakum, Alan Jackson, Garth Brooks and the great George Strait are the only hat acts with enough cred for the hat not to actually be an issue.

Smokin’ show Gary. You’ve really hit the concert sweet spot the last couple of weeks my friend. Cheers.

BLESSINGS princess

BLESSINGS princess

Sounds like a freaking rock concert. I can see why you like Carly. Hubba Hubba

Shakira, where's my music almost kiera, kiera? Clean the albums here. Sally by

I watched Yellowstone and wondered if I could pull off the cowboy hat look. This might convince me to try it 🙂Or, maybe I need to go with cowboy boots and shorts.

That's wild bro

Awesome

Awesome you got to see Tim McGraw.. He came to the fair a couple of years ago and he was on tour with his wife Faith Hill it was a great show.. He is one of the best for sure.. I hope all is well.

Awesome!!!!!! Killer concert. I love a lot of Tim’s early tunes!

Alright Gary! Your video running time is 13:36. My stop watch shows your camera was on her for 11:54 of it, and Tim got 1:42 of film time. Amy is going to give you an elbow in the ribs for this one. Cheers!

Stevie Nicks rules. Great choice!!! Nice thread response Gary.

Rebel Yell was the first cassette of I ever owned! I've long had it on vinyl as well. I've always loved Glen Hughes voice; I remember playing the Songs in the Key of Rock album a lot when it came out 20 years ago or so. Speaking of cassettes, I also had/have Save Yourself (McAuley-Schenker Group)...far from his strongest but always recalled had this album kicked off with that unmistakable MSG guitar. Cool video!

Hi Gary. I finally made it home. A great guest star on this one. It was great meeting up with you and having some wonderful conversations. I'm glad that you were able to make time on your whirlwind concert tour. Thanks for all the kind words. Take care.

Thanks, Gary! Loved the video. MSG!!! Nice!!!! Stevie Nicks! Great choice. Robert Plant had some amazing solo albums. Billy Idol in the house!!!! So cool that you have a Glenn Hughes signature!

The Michael Schenker years with UFO are my favorite but I don't have any of his solo material. Did you like the albums Robert Plant made with Alison Krauss? Great picks.

I picked up Strangers In The Night a couple of months ago, and I will buy some M. Schenker if I ever come across any. Chris came up with another good one, the master of threads... Mr. Propfe 😂 I do like R. Plants solo albums

“I’m only gonna show one or two, gotta keep it moving”…Stevie Nicks is a good choice I didn’t think of for this thread. I have a couple of her albums on compact disc. In total agreement on the first two Robert Plant albums. Really excellent! Billy Idol is another one that didn’t come to mind, and I have bioth the Generation X debut and the first 3 solo albums. Saw him in concert only once in /88! Steve Stevens! That was a wild night in general admission! ✌️

Very cool picks. I’ve never seen that Stevie Nicks compilation before. The last Robert Plant solo record I got into was Manic Nirvana. Billy Idol was an inspired choice. Good luck in the contest!
