A real great and fun video. I envy you, when you go to a flea market we're talking real big flea market! ;) As a Swede i thought it was pretty funny to see Europes "Out of this world" there in a flea market in USA! Take care!
Fun walking with you and hearing your comments, and the NY vendors .....it is so funny how we can remember a lot of what records we own, but can't remember to take out the garbage. Good pointing out, how some of the flea market folks just inflate those prices. Love those Monster mags, but I can not find them cheap. Steve
It is sorta comforting to know that the same albums, bu the same artists, in the same condition are in every flea market all around the world. I could have been going through a bin here in Sydney with the exact same LPs - fascinating! I have begun collecting more rare reel to reel tapes of albums not on CD/re-issued. If they are in good condition the quality is amazingly good. That Ella RtoR I would have died for BTW! Great Video Joe...
I don't know if I ever encountered an outside flea market when I lived there... I know Thom goes to the VFW show... You are right - that pile would have been considered great since we are nowhere near a proper store.
+Elvis Presley Collector -- It's better in the summer. Last year there was a vendor who was selling minty Elvis LPs, many in their original shrink wrap (I didn't record him, though). If you look back to my video #'s 260, 261 and 272, 273 you will see some other Elvis-related scores from the flea market (not many records, mainly books and memorabilia) by a guy who basically gave everything away for free.
The 1st interesting records I saw were Casper and Mighty Mouse at 18'24, unless they were more than a buck, of course. Then you said they were in trashy condition. So, found nothing. At least you picked one album!
That Beatles poster was sold by Sid Bernstein for $15.00 at J and R Music World where he was promoting the release of the Beatles at Shea on VHS which the Beatles blocked. This was back in 1995 if I remember correctly. I was there and Purchased one which was signed by him. There was one small stack of the posters behind the register wrapped in brown paper. No one knew if they're overruns that he kept from the 1966 concert or if thy were printed just for this occasion. They are on thin glossy paper stock like most posters of this type. Mine is framed with an unused ticket from that concert.
At 10:12 think I saw you past through The Amboy Dukes first album. That album is pretty hard to find(any of their 60s albums are hard to find anyway, they had 3 albums in that era). I only have their first album(out of the studio albums), I only seen it once and had to get it. Mine was about $7 and its in average shape. Underrated early Psych Hard Rock
on the Kiss album the blue label is original. nice Connie album! I see the same albums at my flea markets. You always have sellers wanting full book value on better albums. wonder how many they sell at higher prices
Some great records in some of the boxes, Grand Funk, Frank Zappa Elvis live double, I would have brought some of them. What were you looking for, apart from the Beatles?
+MrColjazz -- I'm looking for anything that strikes me, but generally speaking the records at flea markets and thrift stores are below my personal standards in terms of condition. I have found some good or unusual records for sure there at times, but it's rare. My usual record stores usually have better records in better quality. I also simply like making digging videos because viewers seem to have fun with them.
Thanks man just thought I ask . By the way love the elvis vids i am a big fan of the king don't think I've got as much as u thou lol just got my first boot leg elvis becouse of one of your vids and just got the who . Who's back as u said it was a great lp and I thought i give it a go as I am not a big who fan .
Love the vid and all your other ones . Do u have any etta James on vinly as I am from England and it so hard to find any over here keep up the great vids
Niles Harilie - But SHOUT! has been said to not be accurate in places. These days I would recommend Mark Lewisohn's essential TUNE IN as the best Beatles bio.
Didn't you touch the Everly Bros "Songs Our Daddy Taught Us" ? Thought that would be a find. Oops sorry I was being one of "those people". The music at 5:25 is pretty good. I bet you see tons of Streisand.
Loved the video Joe, but unfortunately the jerky hand held camera at times makes me dizzy, so I fast forwarded parts... Not an issue for the vast majority of people, I'm sure though... I'm just getting old..
In my rock snob opinion, flea market / used LPs are JUNK. Overpriced too. The Salvation Army & Goodwill are even worse--great if you like Montovani & Mitch Miller. Regarding Sid Bernstein, I actually saw him sitting at a table ASLEEP at a record show! Maybe that's when he died. He's lived off his Shea Stadium Beatles story for 50 years. YEESH!
Overall I would agree regarding Goodwill and The Salvation Army. But I have found many good records at decent flea markets since the 1970's. Sometimes there are actually regular dealers at my flea markets, and not just someone throwing out their grandfather's chewed-up Mitch Miller records. Your mileage at your flea markets may vary.
I'd agree for the most part unless the person is a record dealer or knows about taking care of them otherwise they will be left in the beating sun, stacked 50 high and dusty as hell.

+FlipSideCT - Hi Steve. It's not that I can't remember to take out the garbage... it's that I try to forget! I appreciate your comment -- thanks!
I saw lot of interessting stuff here!!!
i love flea markets
15:35
Guy: "I'm gonna go use the bathroom."
Other guy: "Ok have a good time!"
Who else heard that👍😂
Nowhere Man 211 did you hear the guy say, “have a good time!”?
Looks like the one bin of decent records had a couple Good Rats records in it. They were a local Long Island band, had a few good songs in the 70's.

+tubeie07 - Thanks ... and I think you're right about the same albums being everywhere!
i wish flea markets in england were that size
I don't know if I ever encountered an outside flea market when I lived there... I know Thom goes to the VFW show... You are right - that pile would have been considered great since we are nowhere near a proper store.
Eraserhead poster at 14:08. Love that film and anything David Lynch touches. (Except maybe Dune.)
I have 2 Beatles reel to reel factory tapes....fun stuff
Looked like one kick ass flea market!
i know that feeling joe, just looking at the box and you know its gonna be shit, lol im not even gonna bother looking through that

+Sgt Pepper - Thanks for the information.

+donaldrocks101103 - Thanks for your comment, Donald. Take Care.

+Brian Smith = Thanks for confirmation on that Kiss album.
When I go to the flea market here (Austria) and I see records in sleeves I can guarantee that they are overpriced.

+Pete Clemo - Thanks for commenting.
Love the vid and all your other ones . Do u have any etta James on vinly as I am from England and it so hard to find any over here keep up the great vids
+Pete Clemo - Thanks! No, I don't own any Etta James.. but I did hear one of her albums played at my record store, and she sounded great!
Nice video. where is this flea market?
If I was gonna read an official Beatles biography, the only one I would read would be Shout by Philip Norman.
Niles Harilie - But SHOUT! has been said to not be accurate in places. These days I would recommend Mark Lewisohn's essential TUNE IN as the best Beatles bio.
I was sad that you flipped past a copy of Holland by The Beach Boys. That's actually one I'm looking for. :)
6:46 🤪🤪😁
I was told Iron Butterfly In a gadda da vida was most common. I thought your vid said "fail"
Anyone knows what that wonderful organ and guitar tune is at 05.00?
I actually make me cringe the amount you pass
question Joe - do you buy Vinyl of only music you like and listen to, or do you collect just for the sake of collecting?
+Adam Lewis - Mostly for music I like, but it can sometimes also be for the sake of it with some records.
"Smoking fingers" Joe.
Didn't you touch the Everly Bros "Songs Our Daddy Taught Us" ? Thought that would be a find. Oops sorry I was being one of "those people". The music at 5:25 is pretty good. I bet you see tons of Streisand.
GL - I think I already have that Everly album. Yes, Streisand is one of the most overly-abundant artists in the vinyl piles!
At 2:28 there was a Cream vinyl, that could have been profitable
I notice it too. The vegetable. Love this record.
The same records world wide
I'd b interested if u want to swap UK beatles stuff for us beatles lps and 45s
Was the everly brothers in bad shape???
+TheSgtpeppers13 -- The record wasn't very good, and I've seen it better at the store. Do I even own it already?? I may!
+MeanMr Mayo bummer. Love me some everly brothers.
Make america great again!
Loved the video Joe, but unfortunately the jerky hand held camera at times makes me dizzy, so I fast forwarded parts... Not an issue for the vast majority of people, I'm sure though... I'm just getting old..
+Thomas Calden - I can see that happening. I got a little dizzy myself re-watching it. ;)
MAGA hats in 2015 huh? I thought they came out a little later.
