Nice little list, I can’t wait to see what all you actually do bring home! I like you have a list but it’s usually changing up until the store opens and I come home with things I didn’t expect to lol
I'm gonna try to pick up both the Stones albums and the two Dirty Heads records. Like you Chase, I'll probably end up with more. I will try to get in line early this year. Take care.
I am grabbing that Paramore remix album. Really love the reworking on it. Also trying to grab the live Death Cab and a he 2nd volume of Willie’s birthday celebration.
Sweet! Any interest in that David Byrne/Paramore 12”? It’s unique enough that’s it on my “B” list (ie could easily “jump” in my stack before I check out 😂)
I enjoyed seeing what you have your eye on for RSD. I have a huge blind spot with 90s to early 2000s music so I learned a little here. Take care my friend.
Killer video Chance! Wow I’m shocked that no one seems to be after the Malfunkshun release, especially grunge and Pearl Jam fans! It’s easily the album I’m the most excited about, the introduction of Landrew and his Love Rock which continued with Mother Love Bone!! I can’t wait to get it on vinyl!! 👍🤘🤘
Well, where I am in Canada…I wasn’t expecting to see a copy of Gandalf and no surprise, I didn’t. Did score SRC, which was really the only other one I wanted.
Great video, I am super excited for RSD, it's one of my favorite holiday's, thanks for showing me some options, right now the only thing I am for certain picking up is the Gorillaz "Cracker Island" exclusive, I dig that record, thanks again for sharing, have a great RSD I hope you get everything you are after!
I haven't decided if I will even go out this year. I saw the Parliament and Gandalf titles, which made me think twice. The Gandalf is an RSD first so there are plans of more reissues down the line. Parliament is an exclusive. So I might need to get out there?
I'm north of Atlanta. I typically go to Sweet Melissa's in Marietta or Comeback Vinyl in Alpharetta. Mojo Records is in Roswell. Those are probably the 3, I visit most. I rarely make it out to Criminal or Fantasyland in Atlanta.
The Gandalf is the reason I’m getting in line this year, I also want the Willie Nelson Phases and Stages deluxe reissue not that I need it lol since I have an OG and the VMP reissue from last month. Happy RSD hunting to you sir.
Well done, enjoyed your take on RSD '24 picks. The Joe Strummer and The Mescaleros debut and one of the other Jackpot release, Wall of Voodoo, might be nice additions.
The Buckley is a maybe for me. Another I could see easily being added to my stack at the last minute. Side note, I still have that Wonka record for you if you want it. Just shoot me a DM with your info and I’ll send it that way!
The numbers are starting to worry me on the Gandalf. Maybe I shouldn't have featured it here? I can tell you there will not be another 11hr+ wait in line this go round. You headed to Long Island again for RSD?
For Record Store Day, check out “The Bodysnatchers” EP on RidingEasy Records. Remastered from the band’s 1978 release. Austin’s first recorded punk band. Great songs, powerful sound. Recorded and mixed live to 2tk analog tape at Pecan St. Studios.
My top 8 for RSD. I think it's going to be an early morning: 1. Gandalf Gandalf 2. Amboy Dukes Journey to the Center of the Mind 3. Elton John Caribou: 50th Anniversary 4. Jazz Dispensary The Freedom Sound! 5. The Cranberries Bury the Hatchet 6. Bill Evans Everybody Digs Bill Evans 7. The Doors Live at Konserthuset 8. David Bowie Waiting in the Sky Peace.
Niiiiiice! Healthy list you got going there. The Gandalf is gonna be a tough one, but good vinyl luck in obtaining it! Thanks for watching this video 🙏
@000s. Would like to think so, but there have been other “first releases” that either didn’t come out again or took a long time for the next wave to hit stores. That’s always in the back of my mind
I'm looking forward to Collective Soul, Tesla's Real to Reel, GBI (Grohl, Benante, Ian) 7", Thin Lizzy Live at Hammersmith, and of course the Beatles! :) Good luck finding the titles you want!
@@ConcertBuddie my main go-to store is Mile Long Records, in Wheaton, IL. I'm friends with the owner, and I'm usually there every Saturday afternoon with a group of friends that I met there many years ago. Are you going to Axpona this weekend? I might go for the first time just to check it out.
Good luck with the Gandalf mate... hope you secure a copy. It's a unique lp I think. Dreamy ethereal psychedelia without in the main having the usual psychedelic traits, if that makes sense. Good luck with the Parliament lp as well... classic record. One of my first, if not first funk purchases back in 90/91. Cheers...Nige
@@ConcertBuddie It's not something I do to be honest Chance although I have several local shops that partake. I think I've got a total of 2 RSD records which I bought after the event. I do very much concentrate on 2nd hand records but it's good people can get access to brand new pressings of rare records. I was by accident in my local shop when the very first RSD happened and I bought a rare hip hop 12" for way under market value...so I have find memories of RSD 😁. Cheers Nige
Guilty as charged. A thrift find in Austin I meant to give to a friend as a gift…the forgot I still had it. I like the Corey Feldman idea better, haha. I’m a Bobblehead > Funko kind of guy anyhow. Have a great RSD Buddie!
My picks are Joe Pesci Penrose showcase vol. 2 Parliament Buena Vista Social Club I'm gonna be on these titles like like a Mexican on beans lol ( I'm Mexican so don't nobody kill me okay!!!) 🤣🤣🤣
this is first time I'll be going to Record Store Day since 2017. I'm looking forward to it. Have no plans to buy any vinyl. No interest in anything being released that day. What I'm exicted about is all the other sales at Monster Music that day which I'll finally be able to partake in....
I’ve done RSD at Monster before. Tons of humans. Organized (somewhat). The in-store discount (20%? Might have been 25%) on used is sneaky good. Bring the big bag! 😁
My REVISED top 8 for RSD: 1. Gandalf Gandalf 2. Amboy Dukes Journey to the Center of the Mind 3. Collective Soul Dosage 4. Elton John Caribou: 50th Anniversary 5. Parliament Osmium 6. Jazz Dispensary The Freedom Sound! - The People Arise 7. The Cranberries Bury the Hatchet 8. David Bowie Waiting in the Sky ...and my revised 9-16: 9. Bill Evans Everybody Digs Bill Evans 10. The Doors Live at Konserthuset 11. Shelly Manne Jazz From the Northwest 12. Mal Waldron / Steve Lacy The Mighty Warriors 13. SRC SRC 14. Gene Clark Lost Studio Sessions 1964 - 1982 15. Charles Mingus Reincarnations 16. Chris Isaak Beyond the Sun Using Gandalf as a perfect example, it's hard to understand why they choose to produce so few copies of a repress they know is going to be in high demand. Certainly every participating store is going to order at least one copy of Gandalf and then get allocated down to one copy (or less!). If there are over 1500 participating stores (I hear the number is closer to 1800) and they only press 1500, well you do the math. Essentially if you want a copy then you basically must be first in line for RSD. This is what is known as B.S. That's B as in B, and S as in S. They could press 3000 copies and it still wouldn't be enough to satisfy demand. So why play games? If they're going to label a release an RSD offering as a "First" at least inform the consumer as to when a standard black vinyl version will be made available; the limited colored variants will still sell out.
That’s a really great question on who/how the quantities get set by the RSD team. It’s definitely a numbers game, especially to have a title (essentially) allocated to less than 1 per store (and you know the big shops - Amoeba, Rough Trade, In Groove, etc) would probably get more than one copy. The Chris Isaak is also on my list (outside these five), I got the earlier/smaller “Sun Sessions” and look forward to hearing the other songs via this expanse release. 🤘🏻
@@ConcertBuddie I my case I have to make a choice of what "method" of buying these RSD releases I want to participate in. 1.) Do I go to my preferred Brick and Mortar store (where they know me) but they limit the amount of records you can buy each trip through the line to 8 and then if you want more you must go to the back of the very, VERY long line or come back later in the day for sloppy-seconds (at this store I have a membership where I get $1 off each record purchased). Here, I thought about enlisting the services of a friend to go this and get in line early with me to grab selections 9 -16 on my wish list for me. That's quite an ask of any friend, and you'd probably end up "owing" them favors for the rest of your life! At this store the record buyer who also manages the RSD events is so aware of his customer base along with being super-sensitive about flippers that he's liable to turn an unfamiliar face away. or 2.) Do I go to the cross-town rival where they let everyone in the store all at once (200, 300, more?) and it's an effing free-for-all but you can buy as many as you want (limited to one copy of each title) as long as you can get to them before the next guy does and who's probably compiled the same want list as you! The big downside here is that the RSD titles are not all in one spot, neatly lined up and displayed. Instead are placed throughout the store willy-nilly wherever they can find the space....and the configuration of the store is really tight even when it's not crowded which makes RSD a bit of a nightmare scenario at this place. There's another store popular in town where they limit the amount of titles you can buy to 5 per day! WTF!! Shouldn't RSD be fun vs. stress inducing?
@@michaellord9745 yeah, the “fun” part only comes AFTER we track down the records we are hunting that day 😁. My vote to your plight: go to #1. What you don’t get there you’ll likely find (most) online after. I’m happy to help you look virtually if you’d like. A “free for all” is a recipe for frustration, in my experience. Too “Walmart Black Friday” vibe for this review collector 😂
@@ConcertBuddie You said: "I’m happy to help you look virtually if you’d like." I appreciate your offer to help and may take you up on that depending on how I fare on filling out my wish list. Option #2 reeks of utter chaos. I've already decided on option #1 at the store where I'm a VIP. I plan on stopping in there the day before to ask the buyer as to how many copies they rec'd of some of my top wishes - Gandalf and Amboy Dukes especially. That store is highly regarded with the RSD higher-ups as is usually well taken care of, but 1500 is still 1500 and he's not likely to get any more than 1-2 of Gandalf. If he gets 2 copies that would still mean a 1:00 a.m. or so arrival time to be the first or second in line. In mid-April it gets pretty chilly here in the Twin Towns overnight, and that's when the weather is good. Last year I showed up at 4:00 a.m. and it was below freezing, windy and snowing sideways off and on. SWEET!! 4:00 a.m. got me 10th in line and surrounded by Swifties! What fun! Eight hours of sitting around in line during the chilly overnight waiting for RSD to begin is a tall order in my book. Last year for RSD some dude wanted the 1975 release so badly he showed up at 5:00 p.m. on Friday afternoon to be the first in line for the 9:00 Sat. a.m. opening. 🤣 Turned out the store was allocated one copy so it paid off for him but at an excruciating cost, in my opinion. So, I'm fairly resigned that I won't be getting Gandalf on Saturday - you just never can predict some unknown individual's determination. So, it's option #1 for me where typically I'll hang around for a second slog through the line and then head off to the other half dozen or so participating stores to try to fill in the gaps. It really is an all day event. When I finally get home it's time for a long nap. BTW - Thanks to a second watch of your video I was reminded of the Parliament and Collective Soul releases. Missing out on those would have been quite regrettable!
@michaellord9745 a nap is a must, for sure! Yeah, if you miss out on something shoot me a DM on IG or email and I’ll check my online network for it. Good vinyl luck on RSD sir!
What, you don’t like Greatest Hits, what is wrong with you, I might have to unsub you now! I’m part of the group , Greatest Hits Forever! lol Chance. Nice list. I use to have an OG of that Parliament album, I can point you to the landfill where it now resides. I actually did t like it that much, never played it but I am more mature now so maybe it would click
Nice little list, I can’t wait to see what all you actually do bring home! I like you have a list but it’s usually changing up until the store opens and I come home with things I didn’t expect to lol
Haha, I rarely stick to just the list. Usually, once in line, I start stacking. 😬
Sweet video!!!! I’m looking to possibly pick up the Monkees reissue.
Nice! Figured that one might be up toy alley. Would you consider yourself a Michael Nesmith completist?
@@ConcertBuddie Definitely!!!!!!
Good luck, man! I wouldn't mind getting the Filter record myself.
Great taste! Good luck!
Awesome video bro
Thanks homie! 🤘🏻
I'm gonna try to pick up both the Stones albums and the two Dirty Heads records. Like you Chase, I'll probably end up with more. I will try to get in line early this year. Take care.
Always works out that way, doesn’t it? Hope it’s a good day for you!
Great list Chance! I hope you get all of those records. I need to give Gandalf a listen. I love psychedelic music. Best wishes to you.
Thanks Melinda! Should make for another fun RSD 🙂

Crazy lines out today! I’m in line/store#2 as I type this. Thankfully I do have a lead on Gandalf; super happy you got your other top choice!
@@ConcertBuddie awesome, well enjoy! Hopefully we get a full reissue of Gandalf eventually that isn’t extremely limited.
@@LeeSaintLewHiss I totally think they will. If there’s money on the table, the labels will mine it until there’s none left! 🤣
@@ConcertBuddie lol very true.

For me it's Parliament, Gandalf, Malfunkshin, Pearl Jam And Bucky Fellini by The Dead Milkmen.
But I could easily grab Filter and Dosage too.
