The Collection: Ep. 42 – What’s In The Box? (CD’s / DVD’s / Books – Dee Snider, George Lynch, Jani Lane, Night Ranger and so much more!!!)

Published on by 2loud2oldmusic10 Comments

I was on Facebook Marketplace just goofing around when I stumbled across a picture of someone selling a bunch of CD’s & DVD’s. I zoomed in on the picture and though I couldn’t see everything, I made out a bunch of CD’s that I would want. I checked the price it was only $50, plus $10 for shipping. I thought to myself, that looks like a good deal…so I took a chance and bought it. There are around 75 CDs, 13 DVDs and 3 books. Everything music related. And did I get a good deal? Watch the show and find out. If you like George Lynch, Dee Snider, Dimebag Darrell, Jani Lane, Firehouse, Nickelback and so many more bands, you will think I hit the motherlode!!

The Collection: Ep. 24 – A Box of 8-Tracks including Kiss, Van Halen, Thin Lizzy, Led Zeppelin and so much more!!

Published on by 2loud2oldmusic8 Comments

The collector in me got the best of me. I bought a box off eBay that was full of 8-Tracks. Of course, why wouldn’t I. I don’t have an 8-Track Player so why not buy a bunch of tapes to never listen to them. Makes total sense. Well, this box had some Kiss, Van Halen, Thin Lizzy, Led Zeppelin and a ton more classic rock 70’s bands…and some not classic rock. So, this special episode is going through 40 8-Tracks…Don’t worry, I make it fairly quick.

So go check it out as it is live now on July 24, 2024 at Noon…because why not!! Thanks for stopping by and please click “Like” and hit “Subscribe” as it helps out the site when you do.

The Collection: Ep. 19 – Generation X

Published on by 2loud2oldmusic12 Comments

A few weeks back, we went through my Billy Idol Vinyl. I promised we would come back and do a walk through Billy’s first big band, Generation X. Here we are ready to tackle the Generation X collection. We go through all the vinyl I have and even throw in a few CDs and a cassette. If you like some Punk, then you’ll love Generation X. We start with a young lad name William Broad that turns in to the great Billy Idol and how he developed in to the superstar he would later become. I hope you enjoy!!

August 2023 Purchases – Vinyl, CD’s & More

Published on by 2loud2oldmusic22 Comments

Another month comes to a close so it is time for another monthly wrap up of what landed in 2 Loud 2 Old Music’s collection this month and it was another decent month, if I do say so myself. It started off with a couple of new releases. First being the vinyl for the 2nd Mammoth WVH album and I like it as much as the first one…

And the second that item that came out the same time was the new album for Rick Springfield. 20 songs on one disc and it is classic Springfield and I have enjoyed it a lot as I do most of his albums.

The Monkees Tour Book – 1967 U.S. & British Tour

Published on by 2loud2oldmusic14 Comments

Over the years of my crate digging, I suddenly started finding Concert Tour Books and thought, why not collect those as well. I have found numerous Kiss, Def Leppard, Bon Jovi and others and on one of my more recent digging adventures I found one from The Monkees. It was for their 1967 U.S. Tour and is the oldest Tour Program I have in the collection. As I am a Monkees’ Fan, I figured it needed a good home. It is in fair condition, but someone did feel the need to write on it and name each member on several pages, but that is part of its charm…at least that is what I keep telling myself. Luckily, it was cheap. Still glad to have it.

The Tour Program is for the band’s 1967 US & British Tour which kicked off on June 9, 1967 at the Hollywood Bowl and then saw the band head to England for 5 shows and the back to the states to finish off the Summer with numerous dates across the country. It was the height of Monkeemania which saw them hit 28 cities and a fun, cool fact is the Jimi Hendrix Experience opened for them on a handful of their American tour dates. And Lulu opened for them in England.

The shows would last about 65 minutes or so and the average setlist looked like below…

Last Train to Clarksville
You Just May Be the One
The Girl I Knew Somewhere
I Wanna Be Free
Sunny Girlfriend
Your Auntie Grizelda
Forget That Girl
Sweet Young Thing
Mary, Mary
Cripple Creek  (Peter solo)
You Can’t Judge a Book By the Cover  (Mike solo)
Gonna Build a Mountain  (Davy solo)
I Got a Woman  (Micky solo)
I’m a Believer
Randy Scouse Git
(I’m Not Your) Steppin’ Stone

Oh, man I would’ve loved to have seen them play back in those days…there was a problem as I wasn’t even born yet at the time of these shows. I was still about 18 months out from being born. So, the main reason we are here is to look at the tour book so let us get to that.

After opening the cover, you will see an ad on one side and the band on the other…there is no denying what year this was with those outfits.

Friday New Releases – July 21, 2023

Published on by 2loud2oldmusic16 Comments

As the Summer heats up so do the releases and this week there are a couple big ones coming out. First it the Barbie Soundtrack…the movie is expected to be huge and the soundtrack as well. I particularly don’t care about it, but a lot of people will. The other is Greta Van Fleet and their new release, ‘Starcatcher’. I hadn’t ordered it yet, but probably will. My daughter said recently that the kids in her age group really like them. Good for them. That is it for me, hopefully there is something for you. Let me know what you want to hear this week or what we may have missed. Thanks for stopping by and I hope everyone has a great weekend.
