Brandon..thank you so much👍❤Green Day and Madonna..interesting..love your take on the digipak thing..nice Tina Turner set..I am getting into Pat Methany more these days..Will look for that album…I am not familiar with Placebo..you have me curious..Coltrane..that is awesome..War On Drugs is a good band..great choice..Brandon, thank you, awesome responses and you have given me some searching to do👍❤glen
Love this one... I share the affinity for War on Drugs but was hooked from their first single they played on the indie airwaves. I feel inspired to do a CD tag as well.
I saw Billy idol in 2011, and back then it was crazy that he’s still going. I love how now a days the ceilings are all being broken everywhere you look, as far as age and output of these great artists still making music today
Another great thing about Digipacks (the ones with trays only of course) is that just like with a vinyl record, the outside condition of the sleeve effects its rarity, and it’s more rare to have a pristine Digipack that’s held up over decades, so I love finding them in the wild in good condition, finding a pristine Digipack is more exciting than finding a pristine jewel case because the latter can be replaced but the former can’t
War On Drugs. Awesome band, I have all their albums. They have another live album just came out. Digipaks-the worst is the kind where you have to open it and lay it flat to slide the cd out from the inside. The digi tears and the cd gets scratched. But I’ve made my peace by keeping cd in separate paper sleeve and put that together with the digi in a clear sleeve.
Billy Idol's 1993 Cyberpunk set several precedents in the album promotion process. In particular, he used the Internet, e-mail, virtual communities and multimedia software - a first for a celebrity.
Great Video ! The Madonna Collection CD..maybe the first/only CD easy to find that used Q Technologie Sound. From the 90s. Be first/only to have a Duel Disc 2025 CD Tag !
Billy is one of my true heroes from the 80s. Eyes Without A Face is the first video I ever saw on MTV lol. Hope you dig that War On Drugs. Really great stuff. Merry Christmas my friend! :)
This CD tag that's going around absolutely takes me by surprise. The amount of vinyl presenters contributing to this that I would consider "big" & those most VC members would know is growing every day. For me personally I never watch Glen K 's videos as I don't like his vibe & it's all CD related which is just ok but nah..... He also replied to a non offensive comment I posted (perhaps a yrs or so ago) in a very rude & ignorant tone so I don't sub etc. All that aside I'm still amazed by how many VC ppl are contributing to this thread as I would not think so many knew of GK from the Basement or his thread.
I think most vinyl guys are naturally people that obviously love physical media so the cd is just one more part of that. Not talked about as much, but still there. I have always said....if the "cd industry" was smart what they would do is start making long boxes again!! We collectors like "Music stuff" and if they started reissuing stuff like all the Sabbath, Ozzy, Iron Maiden, or Kiss cds in long boxes with all the cover art and packaging....I would LITERALLY go back and buy all those cds all over again and collect them just like I collect vinyl lol..
I totally agree with you on the well-made digipaks. I am going to point out the same thing when I do mine. Especially the Japanese high quality ones, as you pointed out, really feel close to handling vinyl. Placebo! I only know one song from the nineties but I never forgot the band name. Really what you said about each format bringing something to the table. Great perspective!
great video Brandon! love your variety in music. i love all formats too. you should make a cassette tag with same questions! I love cassettes and don’t think they get the attention they deserve
the War on Drugs is maybe the best band in the country last few years. The album you are showing might not even be their best. I love the last three albums, and I am kicking myself for not seeing them live at the Hollywood Bowl in October. They were an opening act, but once i saw the setlist the next day, i was in disbelief at how good the setlist was on paper.
Yeah, I totally dig the last two album and the Live Drug, but Deeper still stands out to me as their Dark Side Of The Moon in their personal catalog lol.
I have that War On Drugs album but haven't listened to it in years. I'll give it a spin tomorrow. Edit: Looks like I don't own that particular album but two of their other cds.
Brandon! Great great video! I am personally a CD 💿 collector vs vinyl, just my way. I love the War on Drugs! I’ve been getting into 90s music lately, you should make a video of some 90s music that you suggest or stuff that ppl don’t know.
I don't know my friend. Back in day before two concert tickets didn't equal more than my CAR PAYMENT I would be all over the place lol. I hope to catch them at least once though. \m/

I hate buying thin cardboard cd albums. I agree with the thicker packs. I do like dual case but hate hot easy they break.
I totally agree! Matter of fact I keep all my digpaks separate from my jewel case cds. Just for extra protection.
Love this one... I share the affinity for War on Drugs but was hooked from their first single they played on the indie airwaves. I feel inspired to do a CD tag as well.
Jump on board my friend! \m/
@@mrhoffame Most definitely.
Love the war on drugs album

Ive seen you around in the VC and it’s cool to see you doin a CD vid!

Totally agree! They give off that same aspect that make finding certain vinyl more special than others.
Placebo boxset is glorious! Love seeing a fleet of crisp discographies all in one place
Me too. That is so what I appreciate about box set :) \m/
War On Drugs. Awesome band, I have all their albums. They have another live album just came out.

Uhhh! I know EXACTLY what you mean! Those are worst of the digipaks.
Awesome
Thanks man! \m/

Great video and I also hate those cheap digipaks too
I know, right? The only thing worse than those cheap digipaks is the $16.99 price sticker they put on it lol.
That War on Drugs is dope
Thanks my friend! That is an amazing album!
Wow man, I’m glad I subbed. The war on drugs is a fantastic suggestion of music to anyone who’s never heard them
Thanks my friend! So appreciate that!!
Great Video ! The Madonna Collection CD..maybe the first/only CD easy to find that used Q Technologie Sound. From the 90s. Be first/only to have a Duel Disc 2025 CD Tag !
Great Video Brandon. I love The War on Drugs. They are one of my favorite newer bands. There is just something about guitar tone that gets me.
Totally agree! What a fantastic band!
i love billy idol ! he is great ! i'm very interested to the war on drugs music. i will check them out in the future. thank you very much ! 😀
Billy is one of my true heroes from the 80s. Eyes Without A Face is the first video I ever saw on MTV lol. Hope you dig that War On Drugs. Really great stuff. Merry Christmas my friend! :)

Thanks my friend! Yeah, those well made Japanese digipaks truly are just mini vinyl records lol. Merry Christmas my friend. Have a great one! :)
@ Thanks! Wishing all the best you!
Yeah - this was a great tag. Enjoyed doing it and enjoyed all these great videos like yours. Subbed!
Thanks so much my friend!
great video Brandon! love your variety in music. i love all formats too. you should make a cassette tag with same questions! I love cassettes and don’t think they get the attention they deserve
Hmmmm. Not a bad idea. Throw me a few questions you would put in a cassette tag.
@ looks like two from the trunk already did one! i guess one way is to mimic the applicable questions from the CD tag

Definitely stream it. You will dig it!

How many AcDc shows are you going to @mrhoffame, at least 4?
I don't know my friend. Back in day before two concert tickets didn't equal more than my CAR PAYMENT I would be all over the place lol. I hope to catch them at least once though. \m/
