    I'm impressed that you found so many good albums in one location and for such a good price. I live in the western US and the cheapest I see CDs are $1 - some of the thrift shops have started raising them to $1.50 or $2... ugh. But it's really rare around here to find good titles like that, especially that many. I need to move to the UK

    Hi Rob that is a great selection of CDs you picked up. You are lucky with that charity shop. A few around me are pricing theirs to what they see on eBay and also discogs. Looking for storage is on my list of things this year as well but that's not cheap.

      @@britpopbuzz8564 hi David, I think oxfam uses Discogs.. in the charity shop I go to they have so many they just want to get rid of them .. they have a media area where CDs are £1 .. but another area where it’s not as organised and it’s in another building so I head there first … thanks for watching 👍

    Hi Rob, I've never stopped buying CDs, not least because they've become incredible value over recent years. Some superb examples in your haul. Bluejeans and Moonbeams is a winner. I really like his Virgin Records period. Much more accessible. Pet Sounds, Teenage Fanclub, Searching for Sugarman, Eels, Gang of Four, Big Star, Tattoo You, Lana Del Rey, Solid Air, Vangelis; crikey, what a brilliant pile of bargains.

    Sweetheart Of The Rodeo opened up a whole new world to me. I knew The Christian Life from the Move's BBC Sessions. It is also bookended by two Bob Dylan covers. Gram Parsons became famous through this album. He went on to form The Flying Burrito Brothers with Byrds bass player Chris Hillman. Amongst their number was Bernie Leadon who went on to form Eagles. Another album I would recommend is the latter's Desperado.

    There's no denying you picked up some right old bargains there Rob.
    I got another copy of Quadrophenia on CD just before Christmas,to keep in the car and it's been on constant play ever since !!!
    I also picked up a couple of ska albums that were being promoted by bands on Facebook.
    It has to be something that really catches my eye/grabs my attention on CD for me to buy it nowadays.
    Having said that,I'm finding that some bands I really enjoy,made the jump from vinyl to CD and if you want a complete album discography by them,you've gotta buy the CD's.

    Hi Rob. Good to see your first CD-only video. I picked up 16 CDs for £8 today in one charity shop. Best of your finds for me are John Martyn, Captain Beefheart, Rolling Stones (great album! I paid good money for this 2-CD version), Beach Boys, Rodriguez (not too keen on the documentary), Buzzcocks (faultless comp!), Gorillaz (cool booklet), Vangelis, Big Star (one of my absolute favourite bands; I remember you showing an Alex Chilton record before), Doves, Gang Of Four (yes, formed at Leeds Uni), Chemical Brothers (£14! When £14 was a lot of money), Bob Dylan, Lana Del Rey, Teenage Fanclub (a 90s classic!), Byrds (another stone-cold classic; Gram Parsons can do no wrong for me), Eels, Style Council, Suzanne Vega, Ian Brown, Verve, Jesus And Mary Chain, Jean Michel Jarre, and Chicago Transit Authority. Not bad for a fiver.

    Hi Rob, looks like christmas came a couple of weeks late mate. incredible pick ups there mate.
    "tattoo you" is my favorite Stones album,
    "sweetheart of the rodeo" is my favorite Byrds album
    Lana Del Rey, i own all of her albums (some on cd and some on vinyl) shes a great artist but i have never even considered what my fav of hers is, maybe i should.
    Gorillaz, i love them.
    "shot of love", not Dylan's best but still pretty decent IMO
    "Sixto Rodriguez, made two studio albums: "cold fact" and "coming from reality", both are very good. he was only ever popular in south Africa and Australia back in the day. i was glad that "searching for sugarman" gave him some traction worldwide. it is an interesting documentary, worth watching if you get the chance (i believe it may still be on Netflix)
    so many other great albums and artists shown also, great stuff mate, Lynne and I will be going to a flea market Sunday, hoping to find some interesting cds and vinyl - Lloyd

    Hi Rob, what a haul! I know CDs are cheap but that is ridiculous! Once you get new storage tou'll be buying even more, trust me, I've been filling a lot of holes lately. The Haim album Gays are Gone is probably their best althought Women in Music Pt. III runs it close. Their second album. Something to Tell You would probably be their weakest although it has the best cover.
