2 Much Music? on Grab A Stack of Rock! Mike’s CD Collection

Wanna see that “Holy Grail” CD I spent $300 Canadian for in 2001?  Then check out this episode.  This week’s CD show & tell is for fans of Metallica, Alice Cooper, The Four Horsemen, Coney Hatch, The Who, Sting, The Police, Pink Floyd, Rainbow, Deep Purple, Rock Candy, deluxe reissues with bonus tracks, jazz, Japanese imports, Canadian content, and Guns N’ Roses!

Revisit memories of the Mike Bullard show, and Mrs. LeBrain’s Mom.  Find ingenius way to make your own 2 CD deluxe editions.  See Rorschach blots on two different albums.  Hear about Listening stations and recommendations from Martin Popoff.  Listen to me rant about having to buy multiple deluxe copies of the same CD to get “all the tracks”.  Witness amusing stories about customers who accused me of selling them “scratched up crap”.  Hear me drop a couple F-bombs.  And of course, a big thanks to those who watched last night, and a “BOOOO!” to Metal Roger who missed me razzing him over Metallica’s much maligned Lulu album!

In the spirit of the CD bonus track, if you stay tuned to the end, you’ll get to see a very cool musical instrument made of little plastic bricks….

If you missed it, enjoy this 45 minute episode below.

 


Next week:

Harrison, Jex, John Snow, Aaron and Metal Roger go LeBrainless!

Too Much Music, Part 2? on Grab A Stack of Rock! Mike’s CD Collection

GRAB A STACK OF ROCK With Mike and the Mad Metal Man

Episode 51:  Too Much Music 2?

 

Welcome to Part 2 of “Too Much Music?”, a new solo series I’m doing here on Grab A Stack of Rock.  These are shorter, pre-recorded episodes, but the first one was popular so why not do another?  The concept is, I grab a random stack or two of CDs from my collection, show them, and discuss.  I often have no idea what I’ll be showing prior to taping.  And, sadly, there are always CDs I have not played yet.  That’s why we call this series Too Much Music!  Because this is what happens when we have too much music!

On display in this episode:

  • A stack of Metallica, standard and rare.
  • Rock Candy Coney Hatch and some Andy Curran.
  • A ton of compilations from The Who, Sting, The Police, Pink Floyd, Rainbow and more.
  • Lots of live Deep Purple.
  • Deluxe reissues with bonus tracks.
  • Some jazz.
  • Alice Cooper & a rant about Record Store Day releases.
  • Japanese imports.
  • Guns N’ Roses and a rant about reissues.
  • The Four Horsemen.
  • Canadian content:  The Beaches, The Glorious Sons, and more.
  • The “holy grail” CD that I once paid $300 Canadian for.

I hope you enjoy this special episode which goes “live” tonight at 7:00 PM E.S.T.  I try to comment along, but I can’t guarantee where I’ll be.  Please do leave some comments and I promise I’ll address them as soon as I can!
