You’re a kind of an underground legend here. I’ve heard people mention your channel before. This video is a great way to get to know your channel and tastes. I don’t have most of what you have but I have other albums by some of the same bands. Certainly, I could enjoy listening to your selections. Groundhogs, Jade, Nektar… all great choices.

Yeah, the B-side of David Bowie's Low is not my thing either, but there is a track there called 'Warszawa'. Now that is something else, that one is worth paying attention...

Great bunch of records that are all in my collection.

Amazing picks!! killer albums! keep on rockin!

I really enjoy George Prior’s channel as well . Highly recommended to anyone that hasn’t seen it . Learnt of lots of records I knew very little about from George. Cheers mate 😎👌🇦🇺

That is an AWESOME Hendrix album in the shrink wrap! I am a HUGE fan of shrink wrap on albums, especially when they have the original store price stickers on them. Adds to the nostalgia of the era!

That Grateful Dead album is awesome! Congratulations on that find because they’re so rare still in the shrink wrap! As long as those fine scratches do not result in skips or worse, REPEATS, then it should be fine. Good job; love your videos!

Outstanding tag, Sorin! Do you have any Elvis (the King of Rock!) in your collection? I would recommend his 1968 TV Special album or maybe his first Golden Records (all of his most famous 50’s songs), which you should be able to pick up in Walmart; the new Gold Vinyl edition.

Man, saw The Nighthawks '84ish Chevy Chase/Silver Springs area (ferget). My wife knew them... Damn, blast from the past. -- I can't believe I sold my original "Tomorrow" album. (shoot me) Always killer kiddo. Peace on earth.

Great video!! I also was holding out for Pink Moon but I got tired of searching for the OG for the last 15 years so I finally sucked it up and picked up a reissue last year. I’d also love to find that Kevin Ayer’s. Great tag. Just subbed! Cheers, Brian☘️

If you like The Ground Hogs check out Budgie

Cool video bro. Very laid back but interesting collection of records

Enjoyed your take on this tag. Glad to see you like Electric Flag. That is one if my favorite bands. You are doing a great job with your channel. Keep it up.

XTC

Awesome tag response! You always bring the heat 🔥 I saw a mono copy of Supernatural Fairytales at a record show but it was $$$$ Take care Brian ☮️

Started collecting when I was 14. 62 now. You got a nice long way to go

Great tag! You have good taste my friend and yes George has a awesome channel also 👍

In The Region Of Summer Stars - The Enid. .... Album with an animal on the front.. Oh boy "Mama Lion'.. what were they smoking when they thought that one up,... BTW check Ray's guitar headstock on Remember The Future notice anything strange?... edited to add.. Ariesta Birawa.. think i have that right . Indonesian psych.

Give us a tour of your treehouse

That Nektar record is great. Paid under 10 bucks for my copy.

The Trip is a fantastic lp. It’s actually the Flags first lp. Long Time Comin is such huge blow out around here. Never far from my turn table cause Groovin is Easy!🖖🤪

Love--Bummer In The Summer. 🌞 I knew a guy in the early 80's that had an old wood coat hanger, it had Morrison Hotel printed on it. It looked authentic! The Wheels and the Wheel A Ways are the same band. The US version of Bad Little Woman is a different take when compared to the Euro version.

Maybe not the best place to ask this question, but i cant stand the vinyl reddit. Isa carbon anti static brush worth it, rn im using a microfibre cloth. Thanks ❤

Interesting picks. Ahh Tomorrow... great band. Got the 45's, and the Harvest re-release LP from '76. You might wanna hunt down the comp "50 Minute Technicolour Dream", which contains some unreleased 'n live stuff. Have you seen the film "Smashing Time"? It's a swingin' sixties film, and Tomorrow appear in it as a band called The Snarks, although they don't play any songs, but just romp around.

Im so glad you were able to add that July grail to your collection ✌️ thanks very much for the cool videos Edit: accidentally stole it my a$$!😁 i think your copy of The Velvet Underground is about the coolest ive seen

Now I know why you remind of someone, you´re an Indo Rocker! I´m from the Netherlands, there are many people there with Indonesian roots (and they played the wildest rock ´n´roll in the days of wayback, check out the Tielman Brothers)

✌🏼🤙🏼

Some pretty cool picks there guys. I remember buying the Armageddon album when it came out, jeez showing my age! Great stuff. "Wake Up, It's Tomorrow" is my fave S.A.C. album by far. I picked it up for £1!, when we had a new record store open up in our town, probably around 1977. They had a rack of £1 albums, and although some of the bands were unknown to me at the time, I grabbed them because the covers looked interesting, including "Outside Looking In" by Tangerine Zoo, "Together (As A Way Of Life) by Illusion, which is pretty decent heavy rock, and also Mind Garage (not so hot).

I stand corrected, Sorin! Just checked eBay and all the first pressings of L.A. Woman have the butterfly labels! Must’ve been their first album with that label. But as an Elvis guy, I love eBay because you just can’t find Elvis albums at garage sales or estate sales because everybody thinks that they’re sitting on a goldmine just because it’s Elvis! So, yeah; eBay is my go-to.

Sorin, as I recall the first pressing of The Doors’ “L. A. Woman” did not have the Butterfly label; should be the black, red & white “E” label if memory serves. Great buys, either way!

Sorin, I can see you one day owning your own record shop! You have such enthusiasm and you’re so diverse in your music taste, which is awesome! Fir the letter “N”, check out Nazareth; great rock band from the mid-70’s. BTW, so much wish that I had a Zia Records in north Idaho or at least in nearby Spokane; miss that store!

You definitely have an eclectic taste in music. Spirit's debut has a cool jazzy/funk/psych vibe to it. Caught the band on their "Potato Land" tour back in the 80's, when they played here in the U.K. Also saw Randy California on his solo tour, promoting his "Euro/American" album in '82. July goes for silly money. I managed to grab both 45's years ago, for roughly $15 each, with "My Clown" being an original U.K. copy, and "Hello Who's There" being a Belgian piccy sleeve. Not really that bothered for the album though. W-a-y too pricey for me!

Great to meet Lauren! By all means, bring her back because she has great taste in music too! I have been married for nearly 25 years and my wife couldn’t care less about ANY of my hobbies. Consider yourself lucky, Sorin!

Those KISS solo albums are awesome, especially with all the inserts and the fact that ALL four corners are there; usually, you see those with a clipped corner, marked for discount. Good job!👍

Gotta LOVE the shrink wrap! It always adds desirability and overall eye-appeal, not to mention nostalgia when the original shrink wrap is on (tightly) and still has the hype stickers AND the original price stickers! My favorite price sticker is actually the old yellow Kmart stickers because they look so cool on those older albums. Yes, I would have actually removed the shrink from that one album too!

Oh! And another BIG congratulations on that AMAZING July Mono Promo album! I would have that one insured because it’s SO rare.

Congrats on that red vinyl “Moon Blood” by Fraction album! They sold out extremely fast and yes, one of Dillon’s most favorites! You’re building quite the awesome collection 😊

Some really cool finds, especially for the prices. The Doors, (my fave band), stuff were great pick-ups. Managing to get "Strange Days" with the lyric sheet is a nice find. Plus, The United States Of America, along with the Fifty Foot Hose, were tops in the electronic/psych weirdness field. The record looked a little iffy condition wise to me, so whether it would be worth the cost of trying to fix the warp or not...? Luckily, I managed to get a Minty copy years ago, with the limited envelope sleeve. Dorothy Moskowitz, now in her 80's!, is still recording weird stuff. Her latest C.D. called, "The Afterlife Album", has recently been released, and is pretty interesting. I posted a very short snippet of U.S.A.'s "Coming Down" promo vid on Y.T. that ya might enjoy.

Everyone below pretty much shared my sentiments, but I just want to say that it’s really great that you have your friend, Matthew, to share this great hobby with. It reminds me of when I lived in Vegas and a vinyl collector friend and I would peruse Zia Records among other record shops and now, I have NOBODY to share the hobby with since making the huge mistake of moving to north Idaho. My friend is still in touch and we discuss our cool finds in phone conversations, so not a total loss. Hobbies help to build strong friendships! Have fun 😊

Love the energy you guys put into those videos, it may not be intended, but it feels very cool to listen to you dudes talk about these albums, very nice! +1 subscriber

These two kids rule

I bet Reign In Blood flew out the door. The Whiplash OP too. You absolutely made out like bandits. Well done on a rare win.

John McLaughlin was raw, technically superior and more inventive than Hendrix hands down. Hendrix is of course iconic but compare Mahavishnu Orchestra's - Inner Mounting Flame to Hendrix's - The Cry of Love. Both 1971. No comparison. Likewise you have Holdsworth, Fripp, FZ... Jimi was a monster but though I don't like to say 'overated', compared to these guys he was middling as an innovator. There are levels to this shit that get overlooked because of the luminous tragic glamour... the dark romance and commercial interest of a short lived troubadour like Jimi.

The Eagles don't suck. It's just AOR and overplayed. High rotation on the airwaves sucks the life out of music. Like, I'd probably hate Oasis for all the reasons I do, but I wouldn't loathe them if they hadn't got such hype and saturation.

Cool stuff. Reminds me of my best friend and I beginning to dig together in our teens at the two local used record shops and we’d hit garage sales, the monthly flea market, thrift stores, anyplace we could find them. That was pre-internet. And we were curious about everything, all genres. I’d go into a shop and come out with a Sabbath, Mac, fusion, disco, psych, and they could never figure out what I was doing. A lot of fun and I’m still collecting today, as eclectic as ever, always checking out new sounds. Enjoying the videos, thanks. That first Devo is great! Give it a chance. It’s a grower.

Envious of the REM finds, Murmur is killer. If you are trying to break into the 80s, check out “Living in Darkness” by Agent Orange

When browsing the albums on eBay, you can find all sorts of great deals IF you’re not looking at the mainstays. By that, I mean Elvis (my most favorite to collect!), the Beatles, David Bowie (SO overrated in my opinion), Dio, Queen or Bob Dylan. Most vinyl hunters look for all of them. But as you already know, you can really get carried away on there and end up spending a ton of money! Have fun 😊

Another great video, Sorin! Dillon from Noble Records recommended you and so I’ve been watching and listening to your reviews on these great albums! You’re doing a fine job at it and I would like to add that I appreciate the fact that you’re keeping it clean like Dillon does; no “F-bombs”. I have seen too many RUclipsrs who like to throw those in, which spoils the “family friendly” feel. Once these guys do that, they’ve lost me as a viewer! Keep up the good work and I will look forward to your next video.

Hi! I also admire that there are many younger people such as yourself who appreciate great quality classic rock! You mentioned Zia Records in AZ. I lived in Las Vegas for many years and loved going into Zia Records there! Made the huge mistake of moving to north Idaho and this is NOT a vinyl part of the country; very hard to find great deals up here because there’s so much price-gouging. Keep up the great work!

That fly by night copy is sick !
