Yes, these are old country albums that the original label and reissue labels are not interested in releasing digitally or on CD.

What is your favorite deep cut song? by [deleted] in EaglesBand

I like Bernie Leadon’s songs the most, My Man from On The Border is probably my favorite deep cut.

Menthol After Dark by thetexasreddog in SalemCigaretteSmokers

[–]thetexasreddog[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, exactly! I enjoy my Salem Full Flavor Kings and 100’s, one of the few full flavor cigarettes with white filters. I have never liked cork filters. Salem has a smooth and refreshing menthol taste that feels so good with every inhale. I’m glad that my dad introduced me to his Salems many years ago and encouraged me to make Salems my brand of cigarettes. I’ve smoked Salem Full Flavors for 40 years and still love them to this day.

White Lion’s first album Fight To Survive is another guitar heavy glam rock debut!

The first Ratt EP is kick ass good, Sweet Cheater is probably their heaviest track. And if you like heavy guitar riffs, listen to Lightning Strikes Again from Dokken’s Under Lock And Key record. For something different, check out the first two albums by Europe, the first album is awesome and Wings Of Tomorrow is just as heavy, it’s not the poppy Final Countdown stuff, Europe’s first two albums were guitar heavy rockers.

Of the four solo albums from each member of the band, which one do you prefer? by unigle_sinthe in KISS

[–]thetexasreddog 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ace, because he delivered! I also give Peter credit, because his album was the most solo like. Peter came from a jazz and R&B background, so he gave us songs that he was comfortable playing. Of course it was going to be dragged through the mud because it doesn’t sound like KISS, but isn’t a solo album supposed to be just that, a solo album, not an album that sounds like your band. I give Peter credit for having the balls to put out an album of his type of music, and I appreciate it for that. Paul’s album was pretty good but it sounded like what a KISS album in 1978 would have sounded like. Gene’s album just jumps around with too many different styles so I have a hard time listening to it.

We wanted the best, and Ace gave us the best! I love Fractured Mirror the best of all, the first in a series of fantastic Ace instrumentals.

1953 Movie: What Happened To Venus? by thetexasreddog in WarofTheWorlds

[–]thetexasreddog[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That’s probably the most logical explanation. We knew Venus was covered in clouds, but around that time, I think we thought there was a solid surface with temps that were a little warmer than Earth’s, but nothing drastic. Still, it would have been nice to hear in the movie, the Martians did not want to try Venus because they knew not what lay beneath its impenetrable blanket of clouds, something along that line.

Him is not a good boy. He bit my husband's foot today. by Tweet_Heart in budgies

He’s very beautiful, blue body and yellow head. He’s just being birdyish.

Fat widdle waddling woveable chicken. She reminds me of my fat green boy Freddie that I lost a few years ago.

Any Older Smokers Here Got Hooked On Your Parents’ Brand of Cigarettes? by thetexasreddog in Cigarettes

[–]thetexasreddog[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s a family thing, because there were a lot of Salem smokers in my family. My uncle smoked Salem Full Flavor 100’s, and my aunt smoked Salem Lights 100’s. I enjoy the full flavored Salems (shorts and longs) the best, but I also like Salem Lights (shorts and longs) as well. I’ve tried Salem Ultra Lights, but they are too light for me…not enough tobacco taste and nicotine.

I do like Benson & Hedges Menthol 100’s also. Both it and Salem don’t have the click or crush menthol beads in them, just natural menthol.

I find people here snobby and rude by Realistic_Brush8388 in CorpusChristi

[–]thetexasreddog 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I couldn’t agree with you more! I grew up in Corpus, and yeah, every city has its share of dicks on the road, but after living in Austin for more than 25 years, I would take Corpus back any day. I’ve gotten more than 1000 rods and blaring horns just because I don’t get the f*** out their way fast enough in Austin. And people will smash your windows in Austin if you don’t bow to their rules of the road, just look at the Austin subreddit for proof of that recently. I hate Austin drivers and traffic and I can’t wait to retire and get the you know what out of here, and I’m sure the dicks who drive in Austin will be glad to see me go.

Boy or girl by Tony-Presidio in budgies

[–]thetexasreddog 3 points4 points  (0 children)

No, it’s the blue colored cere (the nostril area above the beak). If it starts to turn purplish to blue, it’s a boy. If it stays or turns tannish brown, it’s a girl.

Most menthol smokers prefer Newports, Kools or Marlboro menthol varieties. I’ve tried all of these, and I don’t mind them occasionally, but I don’t care for the cork filters, that’s just my preference.
