I lived in Nashville and stumbled upon Grimey’s. I found a few treasures there; Jeff Beck Group Truth, Chicago Transit Authority and Emerson Lake & Palmer Brain Salad Surgery. It is an amazing place and I make sure I stop by every time I am in Nashville.
@@lincolnius77 No, she played drums for a band called The Breakfast Club their music was more in keeping with what she was interested in recording. I believe she made her way to the front to be their lead singer as well. I woul dbe interested to find out the "why's" of her choosing The Beastie Boys as her opening act. I always thought it was an odd pairing. Then again, perhaps she worked them in a different way before either one of them made it big?
@ ohhhhhh ok yup that totally rings a bell! I think, and of course I could just Google this haha, she was affiliated with them somehow before they all got big? Maybe she dated one of them or something? I’m going to the Googlez! 😆
Never thought she'd be a NIN fan. I remember wearing my tape of Pretty Hate Machine out back in the day. Did not expect to really connect with all of her selections.
Sabrina was my favorite show growing up so I'm a fan of Melissa Joan Hart. I do however disagree about rock music fading, there are so many great newer bands but not many get promoted. I love rock all the way back to Elvis but most of my favorite bands started within the last ten years.
It’s definitely a ritual! But also, I find vinyl more meaningful in that back in the day we couldn’t wait for our favorite artist’s album to hit the record store! Hoping it won’t be sold out! Rushing home to open it and look at the liner notes and artwork and hear it for the first time! In a way, the digital world has also diminished the artist themselves and the hard work that they put into creating their albums…because no one has to “rush” to an app to download an album before the internet closes…it will always be there. And so, the excitement over the release of a digital album has a much shorter life span. Therefore there’s no immediacy to the whole experience. On the flip side…the benefit of the digital version and then connecting it to TH-cam is that we are much, much more likely to discover new artists that perhaps didn’t get a record contract with a major label or have management that will promote them, or even having management at all! It’s a lot more accessible and affordable to make your own music/album today and get it on TH-cam yourself. Same really goes for film too!
Great comment! I recently experienced this with David Gilmour's Luck and Strange. It was sold out at my local record shop before I could get there! Fortunately I got it a week later, but man....that feeling took me back!
I love the song True Blue and I have that album! Beastie Boys...Licensed to Ill...I have that album also! I was going thru my 2500+ CD collection last week and I came across Melissa's CD, "Clarissa and the Straightjackets". I didn't realize it was worth so much!!
That was a little odd to pick Live To Tell and La Isla Bonita as unknown Madonna songs that weren’t well know or played on the radio. In reality both songs were singles and were all over the radio and MTV. Also side note, before they even released their first album and were just gaining traction in the New York scene, the Beastie Boys opened for Madonna on the Virgin Tour in 1985. Also Nine Inch Nails is a bit of a surprise.
I attended High School at the same time as her at St. Anthony's in South Huntington Long Island. She went to High School in Sayville and one of my classmates was dating her at the time.
Didn’t even know Live to Tell was on one of her albums. Thought it was just on the soundtrack for her husband at the time Sean Penn’s movie At Close Range. Went number 1
The biggest point that they're missing about vinyl records is that vinyl is analog recording and CD is digital which is robotic and that is not natural that's like machinery. Analog recording captures the true nature of the acoustics of the music. Music back in the day was played with real instruments where the visceral emotional feeling could be heard coming from the musician through the instrument and into the amplifiers, so there was less technology as far as interference from different effects in between the musician and the amplifier. It is a known fact that human beings hear and see in "analog" meaning that we see in depth and hear in depth in reality and not just in music. Music that has depth to begin with needs analog recording to capture that depth. CDs are digital and they do not give you that quality (if you try to listen to a recording in analog through a digital CD player, you will hear parts the original recording in analog that digital did not capture) because digital compresses everything all together that's why it takes more bandwidth. Digital gives you more clarity because it gives you all of the music up front making it sound monotone but lacks the acoustic depth therefore giving the music to you so you could just hear it without having to cognitively listen with your mind. This is the main reason why analog is better than digital because digital cannot capture the true acoustical quality of analog but analog can capture everything that digital captures. Digitally recorded music will condition you to only hear the music because there's no depth, in turn dumbing you down because a true aficionado of real musicianship and music in general is always listening to music that has depth. The music being made today is done with computers (CGI) and pressing buttons on drum machines, pulling levers on sequences and auto-tune which is all digitally robotic which in turn has much less human emotional interaction with the music, if you want to call that music to begin with. Humans provide the feeling in music, computers and digital (robots) cannot do that. If you look at a digital recording on an audio file it looks like ➡️💹 like a set of stairs but if you look at an analog recording on an audio file it looks "wavy" so it captures all of the acoustic quality in the depth of the music. This is the main reason why records went out of style because the music became more simplified without depth and substance therefore it doesn't need to be recorded in analog and so now we don't need Hi-Fi stereos with four cabinet speakers and a turntable to capture depth in acoustical quality that you can only really capture in analog recorded music. Not to mention they needed a reason to sell CDs so they sold CDs on the basis that it's more compact so you can take them with you wherever you go which led to everybody having to buy their whole record collection all over again in CDs so the CD manufacturers made millions. The more that vinyl comes back into existence then people will start pulling out their old stereo systems or buying new ones but they would have to come back into mass quantities.
I think what you’re saying is technically true, albeit in a very convoluted kind of way. Vinyl and CD have their own virtues, and I don’t think there is any real difference between hearing music on digital Vs analogue in the sense that they are both inventions of human beings. It is real either way. There’s no morality involved here, if you can connect with the music on any kind format then you are doing it the way it was intended.
@opaljk4835 So you're telling me you don't think humans hear and see in analog in real life, and not in digital? Look it up yourself if you don't believe me.
Host interrupts far too much and there is too much music in the background, little flashes of video, etc...my freaking goodness, just let it be a conversation! Difficult to watch...
No offense to MJH but she doesn't really seem like an "album" type person. She didn't know a Madonna album existed on vinyl and sounds like she's never spun a record in her life. 😂😂
Pretty Hate Machine never would have thought i absolutely love that record.
I lived in Nashville and stumbled upon Grimey’s. I found a few treasures there; Jeff Beck Group Truth, Chicago Transit Authority and Emerson Lake & Palmer Brain Salad Surgery. It is an amazing place and I make sure I stop by every time I am in Nashville.
Weird seeing Sabrina as a middle aged aunt, but heart warming to see that teenage enthusiasm never dies.. We're all 15 at heart.. Mellisa joan heart
I love that Melissa likes different types of music. So do I. True Blue is such great album. Great choices Melissa!
Great interview, MJH always brightens my day.
Fun fact about the first two albums you took out of the bag!…The Beastie Boys were the opening act for Madonna on one of her tours! 🤗
Fun Fact! The Beastie Boys had a giant hydraulic phallus on stage for that tour
Didn't she actually play drums with them way before either of them got big? Or tried to?

@lincolnius77 The original drummer was Kate Schellenbach who would later play drums for Luscious Jackson.
It’s nice to see this side of Melissa.
Cut out the distracting back ground music
I love when some of the guys that they have on start talking about a deep story and then in the back ground there is a guitar solo😂
What a great video! I recently got into vinyl earlier this year and its been an amazing experience so far! Loving the journey!
Before Sabrina The Teenage Witch, she made her debut in Clarissa Explains It All on Nickelodeon.
Great selection Melissa! Awesome choices!!!!
Never thought she'd be a NIN fan. I remember wearing my tape of Pretty Hate Machine out back in the day. Did not expect to really connect with all of her selections.
Love True Blue. Great pick 👍

Who are the Almond Brothers?
Were Gregg and Duane Almond in that band?

I love chick drummers! I live vicariously through them : )
White Heat from True Blue was my fav.
My daughter loved you Melissa!

We missed on the spelling of "Beasty Boys" and "Almond Brothers"...
Yeah everybody's going to know it with that smile on your face

Hi, Melly ☺️
Fun video, but what Madonna fan wouldn't know "Live To Tell"?
she's married to Course of Nature guy? I've been playing Superkala non stop for the past two month. Great band!
She must have awesome parents to name her after an Allman Brothers song😎
She keeps naming songs that aren’t on the albums she’s talking about😐
Clarissa has good taste
Oh yes please pull them out
🤣
Grimey's is awesome!
I want to get into the space
Most definitely have to change the sheets
Can't hear the bass in rock music vinyl
That will never be Sabrina…it’ll always be Clarissa….
Exactly what I was just thinking
Any metal records
Get over it mate.
@ hmmmm?
Yeah she had manowar's into glory ride and grim reaper see you in hell
Yeah she picked grim reaper see you in hell and manowar's hail to England
@@thorianblack7322 I wish
Host interrupts far too much and there is too much music in the background, little flashes of video, etc...my freaking goodness, just let it be a conversation! Difficult to watch...
Who are the Almond Brothers? Who are the Beasty Boys?
Ice cube will help
Beasty Boys? Almond Brothers?
Uh…Live To Tell was a massive hit. Why is this guy hosting a show if he doesn’t know that?!?!
No she's too young😢
No offense to MJH but she doesn't really seem like an "album" type person. She didn't know a Madonna album existed on vinyl and sounds like she's never spun a record in her life. 😂😂
can't do vinyl, cds all the way
cds are the best
I always listen online, though, unfortunately
I still love CD's!
They had a time before C.D.'s came out. So I'm from that Era.
@@AnnetteSloan-n4w so was I, just can't do vinyl, all i remember is the skipping, not nostalgic for me
This is pretty predictable. Yuk!
Atrocious taste I must say 😬
Top 5 records. Not top 5 vinyl. 😂🙄
its always embarrassing to hear 5 shallow albums, from someone who has no idea about music. as if she has ever listened to Pretty Hate Machine!
I don't like any of these choices. I have good taste.
BREAKING BENJAMIN LMFAO LOLOLZZZZZZZ
“Watchya Want- I know every word to that song”. Apparently everything but the title. 😂
True Blue came out in transparent blue Vinyl on first release back in the day
