    Wolfman, great Walmart purchases. Good looking for the deals. Your flea market record store sounds more like an antique mall with the high pricing. That is not a good Yes album in my opinion. Look for Fragile or Close to the Edge. Don’t even compare Yes to Pink Floyd, you will continue to be disappointed. I am on your channel now getting a feel for your love of Pink Floyd. The Zonkman

    Cannot compare Yes to Pink Floyd, Yes has some decent stuff, but not even close. They are good for the Lenny and Squiggy's version of Who's on First. My first 45 was Aerosmith Sweet Emotion/Dream On.

      @RamblingWolfman Месяц назад

      I agree. So many people have told me that Yes is right up there with Pink Floyd, but it's not even close, in my opinion. That's a pretty good 45. In my experience, the b-side is usually more of a filler song, but both of those are bangers. Thanks for watching and commenting ChuckU🙏

    @1969mmendoza 3 месяца назад

    ok you convinced me to follow along .... I have the same love for music .... now the question is .... are you interested in just hearing the music or are you interested in hearing the music with quality...what I mean by that is you can buy any turntable and listen.... now if you want to hear it hear it.... it will now depend on the equipment you play the record...for instance...music will play better with a quality needle...(shure) and then it comes down to turntable.... belt driven (rubber band turning the record plate) or do you go with direct drive (technics SLMK 1200) this was the standard turntable used by radio stations back in the day ; keep in mind that belt driven turntables tend to wear and the band stretches so the record will not spin in a consistent 33 or 45 RPM so the song will not sound right (kind of wavy like), direct driven turntables have a motor that keeps the RPM consistent without any issues. Now it will definitely depends on other equipment... amp/receiver and then speakers......you can buy he best needle and best turntable and a not so good amp/receiver and crappy speakers and it will not sound as it should...... I hope this makes sense. I was DJ back in the 80's thru the mid 90's and yes I carried all my LP's with my heavy DJ equipments to do gigs..so I have a little experience in this subject matter. Good luck buddy...... BTW. I can't believe the cost of records these days.... one suggestion is to buy compilations of records that have several different artist feature on one LP.....check Crocker Barrels Country Store ... the carry a bunch of these compilation type of records. Sorry for such a long post (comment).

    I prefer vynl records over other physical formats because it forces me to listen to albums from start to finish the way the artist intended them to be played. Mainly because its a hassle to get up and move the needle to another song. I have actually heard music that I did not know existed from certain artists just by letting the record play. I also enjoy placing the record on the turntable and watching it spin. On CD it is so easy to skip through songs same for streaming services. I no longer purchase cassettes because I have found them to be very frail. Many of the cassette tapes I have owned, have been caught and ruined on the cassette player. Perhaps because they are so old.

      Absolutely. I find myself doing the same. Don't get me wrong, I love my cds, but vinyl has an effect on me that I don't get with a cd. Cassettes will always have a place in my heart because that's what I mainly had as a young teen.

      ​@husky0877 I just looked at Discogs and the Tracy Chapman LP is my most valuable album yet. I found it for $1.49 in vg+ condition at a flea market. I guess I got lucky.

      I literally had the X2 in my cart, but at the last second, I decided to go X3 mainly for the thought that it might have more gain. I'm now wondering if I should have gone with the X2.

    A company as big as Audio Technica isn't going to sell a turntable that will ruin vinyl and trash their reputation.

      Tell that to an audiophile. I swear it doesn't matter if it's bikes, cameras, or audio equipment, there is always those people who will shame those who don't spend ridiculous amounts of money on stuff. I will never understand this.🤷‍♂️

      Wolfman, Audio Technica do a replacement cartridge for your turntable. It's $30 on LP Gear. Search for AT3600L cartridge.

    I bought a turntable back in November because i wanted to play the records i had when i was a kid. Didn't want to spend a massive amount. After watching loads of RUclips i got a Audio Technica and im blown away by how good it sounds. Vinyl just feels warm. It also takes you back to when you were a kid.

    Aww your green screen betrayal was like finding raisins in my chocolate chip cookie. Enjoy your journey back to physical media! Digital and streaming are soul-less platforms. Physical media indulges us through our multiple senses of hearing, touch, sight, and smell so it impacts our brain on a deeper, more satisfying level imo.
