A Hard Rockin' Three Tune Tuesday!
Tuesday has snuck up on me yet again! It seems to come faster and faster every week... I guess that's just life! Being Tuesday does mean it's time for another Three Tune Tuesday, which is always a fun post to put together. For some time now I have put together several Tuesday posts in advance, the hard part is picking out which one to use each week. Today I was in the mood for some vintage hard rock, so I went with it!
Whenever I think hard rock, I always think about the old Hard Rock Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas, Nevada. It's now long since defunct, as nothing ever last forever. I have been collecting Silver Striker tokens for years, which were collectible silver tokens you could win playing the right slot machines. Those machines are pretty much a thing of the past as well, but the tokens are still out there, although becoming harder to find!
One I have been searching for for some time is this one I found on eBay recently. It's in great condition but overpriced, so the search goes on...

Pretty isn't it? These contain just about 0.6 Troy ounces of pure silver surrounded by a brass ring. @silversaver888 just did a post about them if you want to learn more just click here.
However, before we get going, I want to say thank you to @ablaze for starting and continuing to sponsor this fun weekly event where you can share three songs that you enjoy. One lucky participant will win some HSBI units, you can't have too many of those! So if you don't already participate feel free to jump in, just use the tag #ttt or #threetunetuesday and it's never a bad idea to do a shoutout to @ablaze .
Metallica
These heavy metal legends formed as a band in 1981. It wasn't long before they made a huge following among the hard rock fans in their first two albums, although they weren't hugely commercially successful. That all changed in 1986 with the release of Master of Puppets making them one of the most popular metal bands around. They finally hit the mainstream music world in 1991 with their self titled "Black" album, but some of their older music is among the best. This is the title track of the 1986 album called: "Master of Puppets":
Guns N' Roses
This band was formed in 1985 in Los Angles, California by the merging of two bands, L.A. Guns and Hollywood Rose. They went on to become one of the top bands in the world and legends of rock n' roll. The good times didn't last forever as in the early 1990's the band fell apart due to heavy substance abuse creating rifts that would last decades.
In their early years they produced some of their best music. Their debut album Appetite for Destruction went on to be considered one of the best rock albums of the 1980's. This song came off that album and is called: "Nightrain"
Quiet Riot
Formed originally in 1973, they struggled to reach any real success in the decade with internal dissention among band members. They re-formed with a new band in 1982, with the only original member being vocalist Kevin DuBrow. In 1983 they released one of the best selling heavy metal albums on the 1980's called Metal Health. The cover of a song by band Slade was a big part of that success, it's called "Cum On Feel The Noize":
That will do it for this Tuesday, and I hope you enjoyed the selections for this Three Tune Tuesday. Please feel free to leave any comments or questions below, and as always thank you for all of your support. It really is deeply appreciated. Have a great day everyone!

Our fellow Silver stacker @silversaver888 just put out a post showing that the outer ring, and the Silver inner ring can be taken apart and weighed separately interesting!😇
Oh my god, Cum on Feel the Noize - that's a blast from the past! I can hear it my head now, an echo down the decades...
