PC31 'The Vinyl Policeman'
Добавлен 9 янв 2022
I’m Mike from Portsmouth, England (mike_grogan@btinternet.com). I have a life long passion for music resulting in an ever growing collection of Vinyl, CDs, DVDs, memorabilia etc. Also collection of Guitars. I perform in a Kinks tribute band and a grungy folk outfit. Musical tastes are eclectic but include The Beatles, The Kinks, The Rolling Stones, The Clash, Bruce Springsteen, David Bowie, Nick Cave, Warren Ellis, Elvis Costello, Comsat Angels, The Sound, Killing Joke……..The Bunnymen….oh and Zeppelin…and The Who, not forgetting The Police…..oh yes and the Pistols! …….and many more…….oh and don’t forget Noddy and the boys!…..and many more…..Basically just love music!! 😃……I really shouldn’t have started this list because I also really like Polly Harvey, Gang of 4, Joy Division, Stranglers, The Damned, The Ruts, Red House Painters, Peter Gabriel and others………………and breathe 🧘♀️ oh and of course Black Sabbath!

Which number did you get on your BMG box? Mine is 1021
I'm back (kind of) Mike! Will post first video on Jan 1. Cheers!
I’ve only got the Edsel CD re-releases but you’ve made me look up the last two albums now!
Very noticeable that you video output has tailed off quite a bit recently...hope that's just a result of you being busy...that time of year I know. Hope you're keepng well. Miss your videos. James
Great video and channel content, dude!! I want to recommend 2 vinyl releases to you. Medieval Death LP and free DVD and the Mordicus “Rights ‘n Trials” LP. If you want to know more Google [Medieval Death LP and free DVD + Mordicus “Rights ‘n Trials” LP], then check audio, videos etc. \m/
Chasing Shadows is their best album. Everything else, with the exception of SNM, sounds out of place or unsure of itself.
Thanks for an indispensable overview to the catalogue of this great band. Any idea why so few of their recordings are available on Spotify ?
This band sucks, crap since day one. Doo doo doo, da, da ,da F.O. !
Great shout-out - I'm a big Randall Nelson fan. Interesting stuff about the Stones cover/cake. Awesome that you got to meet Kula Shaker. Just Mustard sounds interesting too. Good luck in the contest Mike!
Hi Mike. I see you're going for the double with JT. Classic choices for the food-related albums. I can remember watching Delia Smith at the very start of her TV career. She used to appear regularly on the local BBC news programme for East Anglia. Roger Daltrey definitely got the short straw having to sit in the bath full of baked beans! P.S. If you've not seen it, check out the video for Joe Ely's new single 'Didn't We Robbie'. It includes lots of stunning previously unseen photos from Ely's personal archive of him with the Clash.
Hello Sir Mike! I totally agree about Randy Nelson. Wonderful guy who I was lucky enough to meet in person. Wonderful picks. I didn’t know the backstory about the cake on Let It Bleed. Good luck in the wonderful JT’s contest.
Great Vid Mike! I put the Kula Shaker in my streamer looking forward to listening tomorrow 😁🔊 Thanks 🙏
Will check Randy out (so to speak) - agree on Gimme Shelter- what a tune 🎵 good old Delia - cake - records and football- the perfect women ! Stay well 🎉
Cake, Spam, beans, cake, Spam and Spam!
Wanna Bee Steve, nice pick on the WHO album. I always found that to be so gross, sitting in a vat of beans. Those could float up into all the wrong places lol. I am a fan of baked beans, add some molasses and brown sugar, good to go. Of course every visit to the UK I have them for breakfast which I still don’t understand lol
Hi Mike, great contest entry mate, i will be uploading mine this weekend. "twat alert"...you got it LOL - Lloyd
Hi Mike. I've unexpectedly just acquired a copy of the Just Mustard album 😃👍👍👍 I'm looking forward to giving it a few spins over the weekend. I'm pretty certain it will be a regular on my turntable. Nice contest entry for a nice guy. I'm expecting to get my entry posted in the next couple of days. Good luck Mike
Great entry Mike and some fine picks I was going to use, but went in another direction. Thanks for the reminder to sub to Randy. Always see his comments in many videos. Good to see you fluff the intro, I don’t feel like such a twat now over my verbal stumbles. Cheers.
The Doyen have you lost your sense of self 😂A not very tasty cake (a bit chewy in the wheel layer), Remove Daltrey & I'd like the baked beans although I think I could only do a quarter a tubs worth, never tasted a cartoon cake so hard to rate it. That Just Mustard is brilliant. I think Beggars might be my favourite.....today!
Awesome entry Mike. I total endorse your shout-out for Randy. He's a great guy with a fantastic channel. Incredible knowledge and amazing collection. Love that Let it Bleed cover. You're right about JT too. One of friendliest guys in the vc with a killer channel. Congrat again to him on reaching 3000 subs. Good luck to you in the contest.
In Rogers book he mentions how cold the beans were as you stated so they tried to warm them up and had it so hot the beans started cooking lol from one extreme to the other. good luck in the contest!
Great entry Mike, good luck. Can't go wrong with the Stones. Decent Who and KS too and great finish with JM.
What an entrance 🙂 Nice to see someone else shout-out Randy! Gimme Shelter is my fav Stones track 🙃Lovely choices and great album recommendation. (PS I picked up the Fontaines DC record within the last hour 👍).
I love Let it Bleed. Gimme Shelter is near or at my very top of all time rock songs! I love Kula Shaker. That one I gor this winter and it was my first on vinyl. I don’t have the previous two but I have both of the Jeevas albums.
Hi Mike, I love the fact you’ve gone for the ‘twat alert’ option rather than editing out the false start. Not sure about that tyre Delia put in the cake, might make it a bit chewy. Andy
Thanks for all the kind words and the support that you have given me. I had forgot all about that Stones album, such a great choice and I loved hearing the information about the cake. How could I forget my favorite group with The Who Sell Out. You are putting me to shame. I am not really familiar with Kula Shaker and will have to check out your recommended album as well.
With that, Mike.. You are entered into my contest. Sean will do the honors of randomly picking 3 winners on the 29th of Sept. Sunday Pacific Standard Time.. Cool beans ! 🤣
Thank you for the kind words and it's been great getting to know you and listening to your 2 original albums, plus all of your Kinks cover material with your good band ! Awesome shout-out for Randy, and perfect choice for your 1st food related album cover.. "Let It Bleed" !! When you said Beans.. It was an automatic reaction ! "Sell Out" I remember seeing that album in a grocery store growing up at Lake Tahoe as an 11 year old kid, fascinated by that cover ! Kula Shaker.. I will listen on my commute to downtown Reno in a bit. Heart Under Just Mustard.. I will stream again. I took both of your ( Steve C. and you ) recommendations on this fine record, and just might buy a copy !
Hi Mike! I think I need to check out Kula Shaker pronto!
My favourite Who album
Very noisy tracking, and lotsa pops / clicks on 1st play, and still noisy after cleaning. Returned them for a refund. Worst sounding new records I've ever purchased. Shame on you for not disclosing how badly they sound !
Seriously……you’ve heard my personal boxset have you?! Ridiculous thing to say!
I almost ordered a couple Of Dead Can Dance on the 4AD vinyl, the prices are good online and I always enjoyed the band on my Cd's in the past. I missed out on an entry for Chicago Steve, glad to see your entry, and congrats on winning Lloyd's contest ! I love my B.A.D. debut, and interesting that John Lydon and Joe Strummer are in the " Medicine Show" video ! I really like Mick Jones.. "The Only Important Thing These Days Is.. Rhythm and Melody" Rhythm and Melody" !! 😆 Rush !
Congrats on winning Lloyds contest! some great choices for Steves contest! Good Luck!
Agree with your #1. And fully agree about your point about what could have been if the Kinks had a George Martin (or Jimmy Miller). Someone to rope in the concepts (and egos) in a trustworthy way -- and yet encouraging all the creative whims and giving them their best options. The Kinks thrived despite it. As the 70s dragged on, and the Kinks made their own studio, I think it got worse for them.
Greetings Sir Mike! Congratulations on your winnings from the wonderful Mr Boon. Well spent. Is there anyone out there who didn’t know you would pick PIL and BAD? Nothing wrong with that my friend, I admire loyalty. Always a pleasure.
@@vikingbrace Hi Gary, A Clash and a Pistols connection…..of course 😂 Do you know Spear of Destiny? Great band, been around 40 years but I don’t think they ever marketed well? Mike
Great contest entry, and you can't beat a bit of Big Audio Dynamite, take care, cheers, Dave 😊
@@beatledavetherecordcollector Hiya Dave, hope you and Suzy are ok? Being a huge Clash fan I had to go for BAD. Take care of yourself. Mike
Nice entry Mike. A great collection of Dead Can Dance You spent your winnings very wisely. Cheers Mike.
Hi Mike, I’m loving DCD, I now have 5 vinyl albums by them. One of them is a live one which is equally superb. I’ll be sending you an email shortly. Mike
Mike, great call on using BAD and PIL. Well done. Dead Can Dance is wonderful. I got an OG recently of the second album you showed. Wonderful stuff but I just don’t see it in the stores much.
Hiya Steve, OG wow, same here, so hard to find OG Dead Can Dance. I’ve only just started my DCD journey, but I love them as does Mrs PC31 so that is a bonus in the PC31 household 😁 I currently have 2,3 and 4 the latest album (which is excellent). I also have a double live album called ‘Toward The Within’ which I recommend. The Wannabe Steve
Ive got the ruts dc one great album 👌
I agree Martin, great band, great album. Always one of my favourite punk bands especially when Malcolm was with them. Mike
Hi Mike, i have never heard of Dead Can Dance so i googled them, they never charted here in Australia except for their latest two albums so i will check them out at some point. thanks for the shout-out again, i appreciate your ongoing support of my channel also. not sure if i will get on board of the acronym contest but i will try.. have a fantastic week mate, to you and yours - Lloyd & Lynne
Hi Mr Nudist! Check out DCD but stream first as not everybody’s cup of tea. But they are a great darkwave ambient band very atmospheric. Thanks again for the winnings, you can see I didn’t waste it 😁 Mike
Good picks - I need to check out S.O.D! And I love the 1st B.A.D album - e=mc2 - what a tune that is !!!
Hi Gav, 1985 e=mc2 came out! I remember playing it all the time. Yes, excellent first album. Can you give me your email address Gav? Mike
Nice way to spend your winnings. I haven't seen anyone use PiL or SOD. I do have several of Big Audio Dynamite's albums. Good luck in Steve's contest.
Hi Randy, Are SoD very well known in the US? It’s a shame because I’ve followed them for 40+ years but they are one of those bands who seem to suffer from bad marketing or inadequate marketing at best. Mike
@@pc31thevinylpoliceman I don’t think that they are very well known here as I only learned about them through your channel.
@@RandyforRoyalsthat’s a shame Randy, but I think they are also quite London centric as well. Shame when these good bands don’t fulfil their potential because of poor marketing. Mike
PIL was the first thing that came to mind regarding this contest. Good entry with 3 actual acronyms.
Hi Rich, PiL was my first to mind as well. Being a Clash man I soon landed on BAD. Are Spear of Destiny very well known in the US, my impression is no? Mike
@@pc31thevinylpoliceman Spear of Destiny are not well known here. I known them by name only. They may have played a song or two by them on KROQ.
@@vinylrichie007that’s a shame, poor marketing I guess or no record company support. Mike
Mike, congrats for winning Lloyd's contest, nice album with Dead Can Dance, a cool band. Great Acronym picks for steve. I was thinking of PIL but decided to go Swedish :) Good luck my friend. Cheers
Hi Janne, yes PiL came to me first, then BAD because of my love for The Clash. Have you come across Spear of Destiny, they are excellent. I now have 5 Dead Can Dance vinyl albums, really great darkwave music. Mike
@@pc31thevinylpoliceman You really picked the gems there. Spear of Destiny I didn't heard, but did streamed it after your video and hey, sounded really good. Thanks for the tip, cheers
Lloyd's birthday suit has been haunting my dreams. I can't unsee it 😂Money well spent with your winnings Doyen. PIL on that tour were really good. BAD is a great choice and I kinda guessed you'd pick it because of your love of the Clash. I loved pissed off Steve the best. That return of serve video was pure gold. Cheers...The Bish 🥁
Hi Ben, yes Lynne has also said that it cannot be unseen either LOL
@@LloydBoonworldofmusic2 😂
I’ll double your 😂 and raise you a 😂😂
Hi Sir Benster the super Bish! Pissed off Steve is the best. DCD….more great music originating from Melbournia. D🎸
Dead Can Dance are awesome, but I have realized some time ago that I only have CDs from the band. I still need that SoD album 🙂BAD is a great choice. Awesome, Mike 👍
Hi Mr Scorsese, I only really started listening to DCD this year, maybe end of last year, and I now have 5 vinyl albums. To be honest I think they are all excellent quality, most bands as we know go in and out but I don’t really see that with the 5 I’ve got, they are all excellent. SoD’s One Eyed Jacks is really excellent post punk Brian, I think their best, although there are some other very strong albums by them. Had to have BAD because of The mighty Clash! Mike
Dead Can Dance have been on my never-ending list of bands to check out. Now I'll have to do it! Thanks!
Hi K, definitely stream before you buy because I think they are quite nichey. I love the atmosphere they generate. It’s very dark, world, ambient. Early albums quite goth. Goes from Middle Eastern to medieval. Very soundtracky, but that does underplay the beauty. Lisa has an almost operatic voice which soars. It feels very grown up (strange thing to say), but it seriously stuff. Let me what you think when you get chance to stream. Hope all’s good with you. Mike
I love Dead Can Dance Mike! Nice acronym selections of some of your favorites. I had no idea Big Audio Dynamite went on for 9 albums!
I’m the same Mike, I love DCD and I am new to them this year. But I already now have 5 of their albums on vinyl. I think BAD went through about 5 incarnations with Mick Jones being the only constant. Mike
Hi Mike, I knew you wouldn’t let the side down with a load of flaky initialisations 😂. Nice to see those Dead Can Dance albums, Serpents Egg is on my shopping list. Andy
Hi Andy, luckily the only three I thought of were true acronyms 😂 I was stuck apart from those three. Have you got many DCD? They are really new this year to me, but I now have 5 vinyl albums. I am playing Serpents as we speak. Excellent atmospheric album, chanting, dark, very good. Mike
Hi Mike, the only DCD I have is on comps, a 4AD one and Steven Wilson’s intrigue which is why I’m now on the look out for serpents egg. I listen to both This is BAD and One Eyed Jacks this morning. Both sound great, particularly BAD, so good I played it twice 😂. Andy
Great looking DCD albums Mike. Nice One Eyed Jacks reissue. Great entry.
Hi Mike, have you got much Spear and DCD? I think One Eyed Jacks is a classic post punk album. Mike
@@pc31thevinylpolicemanl've the first 3 including 1EJ. It's a great album. No DCD on any format. I'm lacking on many great bands. I tend to buy what l can find.
