These videos showing what you take home are among my favorites. It's so cool to see what a record store owner is able to add to their personal collection. ♥️ Record store owners work very hard so you definitely deserve this benefit. Enjoy them all.
Glad to see you pull that Smokey Robinson LP! He’s one of the most gifted pop songwriters ever. If you’ve never listened to his solo LP Quiet Storm I would highly recommend it. Gorgeous, elegantly funky, and one of my favorite records. The 3xLP Motown anthology for The Miracles is also a good grab, and pretty cheap considering the amount of killer songs that are packed into it! Best of luck!
Hey Matt! I live in the Portland area and I've been buying vinyl for about 7 years now. When my wife and I go antique shopping, I always look for records in the antique malls around the area. I've found some gems at these places. I've been to the one out by Hood River where you went in this video. 😊
number four, know you've heard this before: never get high on your own supply... number five, never sell no discs where you rest at. i don't care if they wanna grail, tell em no sale...
Some great new additions. Another reason to want to come visit the store. You should do some wall updates. Let's see what makes the cut and deserves to be put up there.
Those two Zeppelin... oft! I'm such a sucker for Japanese releases with OBI strips But another solid and entertaining vid Matt, thanks for taking the time to put it together. You have such the best job. Although if I owned a vinyl store, a lot less of my stock would never see the shop floor!
@@TooManyRecords I find it to be punchier with more low end than the 2014. It’s counter to what most people say about Japanese pressings, but it’s dead quiet like all Japanese pressings. The only reason I can think of for the punchiness over the 2014 is that the tapes were over 30 years younger when it was cut.
Idk if you have it or not, but you should try to get your hands on an OG US Press 2xlp Metallica Black album copy. I have the first US press Ride the Lightning and Master of Puppets copies as well, and the Black album sounds the best in terms of fidelity. Just a tip. Also, I dont know if you have an Original Alice in Chains MTV unplugged (not the MOV, which also sounds solid) but definitely worth grabbing if you can.
Same boat my man. Just got 18 boxes of OG premium Japanese pressings. High on my own supply: Japanese Press with OBIs and all the extras Miles Davis The Man with the Horn The Musings Of Miles Sonny Rollins Way Out West Contemporary Rolling Stones Some Girls That’s it !!! I promise ……. Although the Clash White Label promos are very tempting plus another 100 but the other 795 will be up on Anarchy Vinyl B. T. W. In the 795 Scorpions - Lonesome Crow / PROMO in the Brain Metronone label.
Some good Portland bands: Shadowlands, Richmond Fontaine, The Prids, Hurry Up, Era Bleak, Red Dons, Hidden Chaple, The Gutters, Brave Hands, All Hits, Collate, The Exploding Hearts, Creature to Creature, Nyx Division, The Shivas, Chromatics, Mr. Wrong, Help, Divers, Noxeema.
I saw Gruntruck open for Screaming Trees and headliner Alice in Chains back in 1992. They won me over from the opening notes of Tribe. Great band. Being in Canada, I went to some effort to secure myself a copy of Push during what will now come to be known as RSD 2021 "Drop 1". Glad I did; it sounds (and looks) great!
Nice selection. Hits Are For Squares doesn't cover their whole career because it each track was selected by a different person so there is no cohesive theme or vision for how it plays as a whole. That said, it does do a pretty solid job of sticking to their most accessible side so it's great if I'm in that mood. They're one of my favorite bands but I can see why they're a "greatest hits band" for a lot of people. If I'm being honest I suspect a lot of their stuff is kind of a you had to be there thing, or at least it requires a strong sense of the context of the scenes they were in. That Motörhead set is cool. I would suggest thinking about getting a live album (preferably No Sleep Till Hammersmith but any of them will do) since you get s better feel for Lemmy's charisma from those and Another Perfect Day; Rock & Roll or 1916; and one from the late 90s on just to represent different line ups. That said, Motörhead is the most reliable band of all time. When you're in the mood for them any album will do so unless the bug bites hard you don't need all of them. On the other hand any time you run across an album of theirs you don't have you will always know you'll enjoy it when you spin it.
What is the best way to get in touch with you about selling my record collection when I finally pass on. My husband/partner is not interested in keeping it and he doesn’t know to much about vinyl records. Just wanted to get a fair price for him so no one takes advantage of him money wise.
It's a habit basically since the start of the channel to put light background music. I think most "talk to camera" youtubers do it, so I figured I'd do it as well. I think this is the first comment against it. I'll keep it in mind, and I appreciate the compliment most importantly.
Classic rock and metal suck. Only decent record is Sonic Youth. Why don't people collect 50s rockabilly, surf and 60's garage? All that stuff is way cooler than anything else.

Thank you Melinda!! They don't get a ton of engagement but I keep doing them because of comments like this.
Holy moly! Matt, the breadth of music knowledge you have, spanning every genre imaginable, is mind blowing. You are a walking encyclopedia!
❤❤❤
Always a pleasure to see what ya take home, Matt! Looking forward to the next segment.
A record store owner who appreciates all four corners of their store is great to see.
🥰
Great metal haul

Indigo Goblin!!!! 🤩
Love it! You took some good gems, Matt! Hope you, Alex and Goose are doing well!!!
Thanks Terri!! We miss ya!
You rock, Terri! I hope you're doing well too ✨

Great vlog, Mahalo
My Pink Floyd Pulse box set is one of my absolute favorites in my collection!
great !
Some great new additions. Another reason to want to come visit the store.
You should do some wall updates. Let's see what makes the cut and deserves to be put up there.
The walls changes so much but it could be fun to do a wall tour video
P. D. Williams - Funk, Love & Soul......'nuff said.
Love the AIC shirt!!! Also, finally found an AIC Unplugged on vinyl.
Those two Zeppelin... oft!
I'm such a sucker for Japanese releases with OBI strips
But another solid and entertaining vid Matt, thanks for taking the time to put it together.
You have such the best job.

It's easier to strike a balance than you'd think. Space limitations and rent are mighty overlords LOL
Nice segue from Sade to Astrud Gilberto ..Some Smooth Grooves 👍
Nice shirt.😊
You need more Smokey. Beautiful singer
Look out for an 82 red Japanese mono version of Revolver. It’s my favorite pressing and I have the new and 2014 monos.
What do you like about it, can you put it into words? Just wondering.

I'd be interested to hear your thoughts on that Japan LZ IV. That's the only LZ in my collection that I don't have a definitive pressing of.
love me some Sade 🥰

A nice eclectic mix there Matt
There's no such thing as enough Motorhead 🤘🏽⚡
ok ok yes sensei
@@TooManyRecords haha! 😘
Where else but TMR do you get early Metallica to Doo Wop back to back 😂
hahahaha

OHHH right, I totally forgot that aspect of the comp. Thank you for reminding me, that makes a lot of sense.
Yooo, where did you get that shirt?
It was one of WAGS RAGS, the pop up of rare/unique music shirts in our shop!
Do you still have the Bill Evans set? I would gladly pay
I’ll be in Portland July 24-27th. Planning on bringing a few things to trade in. Hoping to meet you!
Well, we're closed Mondays, but I'll be here the other days!! Looking forward to it.

Hi there, you can email me at toomanyrecordsmusic@gmail.com and I'd be happy to talk to you more.
its funny
I love your vids, but the “hold” music in the background is so unnecessary. Why? You’re interesting. Don’t need bad music on repeat.
It's a habit basically since the start of the channel to put light background music. I think most "talk to camera" youtubers do it, so I figured I'd do it as well. I think this is the first comment against it. I'll keep it in mind, and I appreciate the compliment most importantly.
Classic rock and metal suck. Only decent record is Sonic Youth. Why don't people collect 50s rockabilly, surf and 60's garage? All that stuff is way cooler than anything else.
You should start a channel on that platform.
I love metal AND rockabilly, surf, and garage. Blues, surf and garage are all foundational to the development of metal. It's all connected, man.
seriously... ppl shouldn't get music they luv listening to. they gotta buy only the cool stuff.
@@mikeymike7721 And what to do if the music they love listening to is also cool....🤔
@@mccarthyd6603 obviously, buy a 5x5 Kallax, and become a collector :)
