Ah....another Montovani fan. I had listened to his Exodus record for years. I got back into vinyl (at least more actively) recently and expanded my Montovani collection by a couple albums via thrifting. He was a yuge figure for his time. I don't know that a lot of people know that. I say, if you haven't sampled Montovani, you can't call yourself retro. :D
Your Beatles 'Butcher Cover' is in GREAT Shape ! They were shipped with the plain cover 'glued' over the Orig. cover to save money from the factory. It was peeled off by the owner and has done minimal damage to the original artwork. This condition absolutely proves this to be a fist issue !!!
My understanding is the peeled without damage are the Sears returns that were fixed and reshipped. Also a cache of original butcher covers were discovered in a Capitol exec house after his death. True? Maybe but still a good story.@@kennysaudiophilerecordreviews
I was blown away when you pulled out the butcher cover! Also, great score with Jethro Tull’s BENEFIT album. Tull is my all-time favourite band, and that’s a heavy album!
What an amazing haul, for $1.99 each! A little history on the condition of the Beatles album: Yesterday...And Today was initially released with the infamous "Butcher Cover". The cover created some controversy, so Capitol Records had the initial pressings recalled, and the pasted the replacement cover photo over the "Butcher Cover", then issued subsequent pressings with the new cover. Many people who bought the album with the pasted on replacement cover peeled that cover off. The copy you have is one that had the replacement cover peeled off. And even those can go for a good bit of money. So, finding it for a $1.99 is great bit of luck!
Created "some" controversy? Dude, that's like saying Hitzer created "some" problems in 1930's and 1940's Europe. Record companies don't recall printed album covers and paste over the artwork willy nilly. Nice of you to point out why his album looks the way it does though... thanks
Great collection of records. Wow, what a find with that Beatles album. I found a strata east record, which is about the rarest thing I have ever found / seen in a thrift store. Cheers!
Hi, Norman from Scotland 🏴 I really love your happy upbeat channel, thankyou for taking the time to up,lad and show us your latest purchases, loved the watch excellent item, all the best to you from Norman
There's something nice sitting in the wet, cold Pacific Northwest and listening to Hawaiian music, of whatever type. My brother thrifted a quite exquisite album for me a couple weeks ago: Hawaii Calls: with Al Kealoha Perry: Presented by Webley Edwards. The vinyl cleaned up nice and it sounds very good. You've got to get this just to listen to Hawaiian War Chant. :)
Awesome!..........I'm lucky enough to have a second state stereo version..........yes it's quite a thrill when you pull something like this......Thank you for sharing your finds.
I watched the video and these LP records at $1.99 are a real bargain! I specially like those soundtrack albums, "Star Wars" is my favourite! I wish i am there to buy some of those records! Star Wars, The Empire Strikes Back, Hawaii-Five-O and some of the Jazz records which i like. Thank you for the video! 😊
I’m your age and love vinyl. When I was young there was a store in my town called RTC or Record Trading Center and they bought and sold records and it was a great store. So glad to see a resurgence in vinyl.
I played with the same toys - Maj. Matt Mason, Hot Wheels, etc. My favorite track on that Isley Brothers album is Climbin’ The Ladder. My rarest thrift purchase is Dorothy Ashby’s Afro Harping. It was going for roughly $200 when I found one for .99 cents. It was in VG+ condition. You found some nice things especially that Beatles album.
Many thanks Kenny, cant beat the price of those pick ups..🤘 and great selections. I had to see what you considered the rarest, so glad to see a deal can still be found for those willing to dig
Kenny, I had heard the Isley Brothers over the years but was mainly familiar with the earlier, "Twist era" stuff. Well I guess I was familiar with many of their later hooks via 90s rap sampling too, but WOW, that album you showed off there blew my socks off. I've since delved into more of their 70s catalog and I can't get enough. Thank you for introducing me to my "new" favorite band!
They were really great in the 70s. I'm glad that my video had a positive impact on listening to the Isely Brothers music. Thank you very much for watching my video 😊 ✌️
Wow. What a great Butcher cover. I would be inthe hospital after that encounter!!! That Louis "Hello Dolly " on Kapp is a great LP and very populat at the time. My parents owned it ,as did my aunts and uncles. Brings back great memories from being a kid with Hot Wheels. Great vid man.
Great video Kenny. Wow, you got some great records for $1,99 !! True story, I swear. 14 years ago I was at a 2nd hand store and picked up a 2nd state stereo butcher album for $1. I didn;t even realize it to the next day when i realized I could see Ringo's turtleneck underneath. Being a Beatle freak, believe me, this is not for sale. Also, i would never attempt to steam the 2nd cover off, or I would "Butcher" it. Keep up the interesting videos.j
Hello Kenny from France, where it is more difficult to make good business and find such opportinities. One of the rarest record i was searching for more than 20 years is the 1rst Good rats on Kapp records. I found it after having move from my birthtown Paris to a south and western town called Poitiers. A very nice record dealer sold off one copy of it, cover with ring, but a 1rst press US original in raher good condition, at a very low price. I could not believe my eyes and then my ears. Fun fact : about some ten years later, I found the same one, orginal french pressing, even rarest ! Thanx for sharing passion and experience. Have a nice week. Stéphane 🕶 🕶 🕶 🖐
My Mom worked for Fleetwood records in the 70's Revere, Ma. Packing up records for shipment and I sometimes helped. I became interested in collecting them around 1978. The rarest one I saw was at a flea market and it was Pink Floyd Ummagumma with the front cover having the band in the bottom and not the Gigi or a white cover. This had the band with the cover of Ummagumma LP on front! I did not have the $10 which was (a lot back then) the guy wanted for the record. At the time, I did not know it was a cover not known to even have been printed. At least one is real and I let it slide through my hands!
I have both of the Star Wars soundtracks and obviously they’re some of the best scores of all time !!! And I also have a Lionel Hampton album but it’s a different album to the one you got !!!! Some great finds at good prices there !! Keep up the good work !!!
Kenny, that was some haul! What a marvelous selection, topped off by a “Butcher” cover! It’s amazing to think back when these albums were new (all in my lifetime). There was a time when the world hadn’t yet known “You are the Sunshine of my life”…it was just a fresh track on that LP (and a single) that hadn’t been heard a million times. Wow!
you found some awesome stuff and it always makes me wonder about Who owned them before and why they ended up in the store. Another note congrats on the Butcher Cover. that probably was someone's pride and joy.. now its yours .. I am jealous.. great scores
I often think the same about the origin of the thrift store albums I find and the reason the last owners gave them up...especially something of high value.
Kenny do you watch Rachel's Ghost show every morning at 6 am? I think you found a gold mine of a thrift store, I sit in my buddies record store and only wish I'd find a copy of the Beatles albumin that.. insane my friend
Rarest record I have is a 45 from 1972 made at a $1.00 instant record booth that recorded John Lennon and Harry Nilsson. In the original paper jacket. Only one of its kind in the world. Bought it for $2 at a garage sale in Long Island.
My best thrift store find (UK) was the first two Jimmy Hendrix singles, which were 10p (15c) each, bought in the 1990's. You have some great records there, and very good taste in music. :) My rarest album - The best of Derrick Morgan (Ska) My rarest EP - Bob Dylan at the Newport Folk Festival (withdrawn) My rarest single - Bob Marley Waiting in Vain (radio promo, handwritten labels with 'Greetings' spoken intro, side A has 30 seconds of WiV, adn the B side has the whole song) My other rarest single - Rub and Squeeze by King Perry and the Soulettes on original press Jamaican Studio One (with ST1/ST 2 numbers), written on by Lee Perry himself.
Some of the covers were papered over and sold anyway. It looks like you may have gotten one of them that someone pulled the paper off to see the original cover.
@@kennysaudiophilerecordreviews My pleasure! Im only five years or so into my jazz appreciating, so any crucial albums / lesser known artists that you really rate would be much appreciated! Thank you once again!
@@kennysaudiophilerecordreviews Okay, you seem so familar, and I used to occasionally go to a record store on Hollywood Blvd near Vine years ago and you remind me of the owner. Anyway, nice to meet you, I enjoy your videos. Keep up the good work!
Definitely a Pulp Fiction gold gleam case opening moment - actually, all of them for me - esp' @ $2, the markets gone bananas esp here in NZ and AU for material of those titles - love the video, peace and blessings.
It is truly unbelievable to get the Beatles album. It is one of the most coveted albums from the Rock era. This one album is just impossible to find anywhere, anytime, ever. A true GEM!!!
@@kennysaudiophilerecordreviews I think God smiled on you. This just NEVER happens, ever. I’m 69 and have never known any to have even seen a copy, let alone find one in a bin at a second hand store… You’re livin’ right, man.
over 100000 printed many still out there - most pasted over - go to a record convention and see how many there are - found 2 thrift shop and garage sale ( both unpeeled ) - another so badly peeled i passed on it - they are becoming more rare unpeeled
Hello Kenny, that sure is a lucky find, one of the rarest Beatles albums. A print out of The Butcher cover is pasted on the wall of my music room, for the past 20 years and I still haven't seen the original yet. That's one of the grails on my list. That entire LP stash from the thrift store is fantastic. Wishing you more such gems. Cheers from India. I wish we had thrift stores with such stash and pricing back here. 😂
When I very first started collecting vinyl in 1989, I saw a VG- condition, 2nd state, peeled Beatles Butcher record in "the glass case" at my local used record store. I remember clearly thinking, "Wow, $80 for one record; that's like a week's worth of pizza and beer for THIS college student." In hindsight, I really wish I would have chosen to starve myself for a few days. That collectable is so sweet; nice find!!
That Louis Armstrong Town Hall Concert Plus album looks like an original US Mono edition from 1957, which is very nice to have. I first bought that album around 1970 in the UK version which had been pressed by Decca in England. It is a great selection of Louis's work from the late 1940s and includes several tunes with Duke Ellington and his men. The rarest record which I have ever seen is a Charley Patton Paramount 78 which was not in good condition, but a friend of mine had nailed it to his wall as an ornament. I've seen such Paramount 78s going for over $20,000.
Absolutely fantastic finds, Kenny! I thought I showed some good finds over the weekend, but these are amazing. Great Stones finds 👌Tamborine Man, those Stevie Wonder and that fabulous Joni Blue… amazing. And Butcher cover!!!! The vinyl gods were shining down on you. Liked and subbed. Cheers, Jack
Dude nooo way, I was not expecting that one man. Congrats on that find! The rares find is 4 copys of Orange Wedge Orange Wedge - People / Dream from Baltimore. I live in Baltimore County and my dad got them in a yard sale, thinking they may have known someone from the band to have 4 copys of it
My flea market find was S.F. Sorrow by The Pretty Things, which some people call The First Rock Opera. Also the first Cars album, and I’d never heard of them at the time.
Hello sir!..You are a man after my own heart. Just stumbled upon your channel and was tickled pink over the fact that somebody else collects real albums. I don't have nearly as many as you. I also have a few watches as well. I found that amusing too. Are you sure we're not related? Lol.
Hi kenny some great finds there, the rarest album I came across was by a folk rock psych duo called fresh maggots, it was among a pile of crappy records that I had looked through weeks before on a local flea market, and after reading the British record collector magazine and seeing it mentioned in there the memory came back about it so I was surprised to see it was still there, if cost me about £1.00, it's selling for over grand now, but it's not what it's worth it's what someone will pay for it.
Wow...nice haul. And loving the watch you're sporting and the one on your side! Vinyl and watches.....great combo, Kenny! What is that cool watch on your wrist? Looks nice. And for $1.99, its just treasure hunting fun!
I found a record at a rare goodwill in Anaheim Ca. Called "The Happy Sound" and it had a amazing oldie "Think twice" it's valued at 250 to 300 dollars its Layola records label ,I paid $4 😊
Rarest Records - Karen Dalton - "In My Own Time" (found in trash) Buckingham Nicks (found on side of road) Art Blakey/Jazz Messengers Blue Note (with crates of other rare/vintage jazz records abandoned on loading dock).
I found Rene John - Road To My Cathedral in a Goodwill in Flint, MI for $.50 Far rarer than a butcher cover, but less well known with fewer people seeking it, it still goes as high as $1000 when in top condition. My copy had a missing a label and stains on the cover but still sold for $365 back in 2013. It was a demo record. 100 copies were made. An Acid Archives review said five known copies existed. I apparently found number six!
The rarest album I ever bought was Santana's Lotus album 40+ years ago. Back then it was only available as a Japanese import. It didn't get released on an American label until later. I paid a premium price for it.
I have a Beatles “Yesterday and Today” that’s a Butcher Cover but I haven’t and won’t steam it off. I know what’s underneath. I bought it new in 1966 and it’s still is! 👍
The best, most valuable record I’ve found at the thrift shop…1963 The Supremes, meet The Supremes Last one I saw on Discogs, sold for $750 But I’ll never sell it !
Recently found Herbie Hancock's Thrust and Dusty In Memphis WLP in VG ++ at my local thrift for $1. I've had similar finds a few years ago but its getting harder and harder to dig these kind of finds since the vinyl renaissance.
I have a first edition Samual Clemmons, Adventures of Tom Sawyer that I payed $3.00 for at a Savers a while back. I used to SCORE with jewelry but they got some fancy equipment and they price gem stones way differently. I have a book and record collection that looks like I spent enough to buy a couple of houses for next to nothing.
Let me try making this message a second time 😞 . Those two Star Wars soundtracks you had are two records I've been looking for for many years. Actually the first SStar Wars is the main one I listened to growing up. Back at the end of June, I had to go down to Houston to sell the family house. I had about 400 albums I had left down there when I moved to where I live now in 1992. But somewhere around 1998, I started looking for my records down in Houston and could not find them. After a decade or so of looking when I would make it down there I finally concluded that my sister or my dad must have thrown them away when they lived in the house. But as me and my friend were loading up the truck and trying to move what I could get, I found about 50 of my records. Somebody had stored them away in the junk room and with my lack of much vision send some eye surgeries went wrong in 2001, I never could find them in there until moving stuff out of the house. And both of those Star Wars albums were in there. But unfortunately the Texas heat and the house being left for a decade with nobody living in it and the AC shut off didn't do those records any favors. Plus, me being 10 years old in 1977 when I got the Star Wars double album didn't help things either. They ween't really warped but they were scratched really bad. So long story shortened, I'm still looking for a good copy of at least the Star Wars 2 LP set and it's that exact same one you had found. There was a little bit of light at the end of the tunnel. Out of the 50 or so records that I found, a few of them were still in excellent shape and sounded great. I was really surprised and I was convinced that if I ever did find them in the house they would all be melted haha! Brian in fort Worth 🎶
Hey Brian...sorry about what happened to your Star Wars records. I hope that you are able to find the one's that you are looking for. Those Star Wars albums are great and it took me some time to find them. I believe that I may have them on CD but it's nice having the albums. I hope all is well with you and thank you for watching my video 😊 ✌️
@@kennysaudiophilerecordreviews it's kind of funny because a couple of weeks ago I saw another YT video where a guy was flipping through some records and that Star Wars original was in there. I'm sure I'll find a good copy one day and I'll keep looking. $2 was great and you got a deal 👍 I don't really listen to classical music but John Williams and the London Symphony Orchestra really did a great job on that movie's soundtrack. I literally played that record to death back when I was young. I'll find me one someday and thanks for the reply Kenny. And enjoy your copy too 👍
Nice haul dude. Lots of great albums and only 1.99 each? 🎉 I gave all my vinyl to my kids. I like the “quality” of the old records but I can’t tolerate the snap, crackle, and pop! of LPs. Enjoy your collection.
Hi Kenny I'm pretty new to the channel but I love it thank you so much for doing everything you do. Do you curate playlists anywhere like on Spotify or even RUclips of your favorite jazz or other music?
Thank you very much for watching my video 😊...I am very sorry but I do not curate playlist but the albums and music that I mention on my videos can be easily found on RUclips.
My dad managed to find the rarest record I’ve ever seen twice, eight years apart, for around a dollar. He sold them for $2000 each. It had been made on a private label by a local folk group. Only 50 copies were pressed and given out to friends and family back in 1971.
I go to the thrift stores and I get I see the usual Christmas albums and Montovani records. This guy’s scoring absolute gems.
And tons of Barbra Streisand and Johnny Mathis. 🙄
Ah....another Montovani fan. I had listened to his Exodus record for years. I got back into vinyl (at least more actively) recently and expanded my Montovani collection by a couple albums via thrifting. He was a yuge figure for his time.

@@kennysaudiophilerecordreviews Okay, you seem so familar, and I used to occasionally go to a record store on Hollywood Blvd near Vine years ago and you remind me of the owner. Anyway, nice to meet you, I enjoy your videos. Keep up the good work!
Thank you very much for watching my videos 😊
Definitely a Pulp Fiction gold gleam case opening moment - actually, all of them for me - esp' @ $2, the markets gone bananas esp here in NZ and AU for material of those titles - love the video, peace and blessings.
I appreciate you, and thank you very much for watching my video ✌️
I dig your taste, Kenny. Very WIDE. I've got a 2nd State Butcher cover in a frame on my wall.
Nice find on the butcher cover!❤
Thank you very much ✌️
It is truly unbelievable to get the Beatles album. It is one of the most coveted albums from the Rock era. This one album is just impossible to find anywhere, anytime, ever. A true GEM!!!
I was lucky to be at the right place at the right time 😊 ✌️
@@kennysaudiophilerecordreviews I think God smiled on you. This just NEVER happens, ever. I’m 69 and have never known any to have even seen a copy, let alone find one in a bin at a second hand store… You’re livin’ right, man.
over 100000 printed many still out there - most pasted over - go to a record convention and see how many there are - found 2 thrift shop and garage sale ( both unpeeled ) - another so badly peeled i passed on it - they are becoming more rare unpeeled
Hello Kenny, that sure is a lucky find, one of the rarest Beatles albums. A print out of The Butcher cover is pasted on the wall of my music room, for the past 20 years and I still haven't seen the original yet.
That's one of the grails on my list.
That entire LP stash from the thrift store is fantastic.
Wishing you more such gems.
Cheers from India.
I wish we had thrift stores with such stash and pricing back here. 😂
When I very first started collecting vinyl in 1989, I saw a VG- condition, 2nd state, peeled Beatles Butcher record in "the glass case" at my local used record store. I remember clearly thinking, "Wow, $80 for one record; that's like a week's worth of pizza and beer for THIS college student."
In hindsight, I really wish I would have chosen to starve myself for a few days. That collectable is so sweet; nice find!!
😊😁...thank you very much for sharing that cool story 😊...in retrospect, $80 would have been a bargain.
Hey! Wow some thrift shop!... If only here... ! Love from Ireland bud❤
Thank you very much for watching from Ireland 😊✌️
3rd State peeled Butcher.
I found an original First State Stereo Butcher at Goodwill about 25yrs ago for .99…….still have it framed.
That was a awsome find for you 👏 👍
That Louis Armstrong Town Hall Concert Plus album looks like an original US Mono edition from 1957, which is very nice to have. I first bought that album around 1970 in the UK version which had been pressed by Decca in England. It is a great selection of Louis's work from the late 1940s and includes several tunes with Duke Ellington and his men. The rarest record which I have ever seen is a Charley Patton Paramount 78 which was not in good condition, but a friend of mine had nailed it to his wall as an ornament. I've seen such Paramount 78s going for over $20,000.
Thank you very much for watching and the information about Paramount 78s as I definitely was not aware of that 👍
Absolutely fantastic finds, Kenny! I thought I showed some good finds over the weekend, but these are amazing. Great Stones finds 👌Tamborine Man, those Stevie Wonder and that fabulous Joni Blue… amazing. And Butcher cover!!!! The vinyl gods were shining down on you. Liked and subbed. Cheers, Jack
Thank you very much for viewing my video and subscribing, I appreciate your comments 😊 ✌️
OMG crazy finds, Happy Hunting.
Happy hunting to you too 😁
Great haul!
Peace on earth.
I appreciate that, thank you very much ✌️
Dude nooo way, I was not expecting that one man. Congrats on that find! The rares find is 4 copys of Orange Wedge Orange Wedge - People / Dream from Baltimore. I live in Baltimore County and my dad got them in a yard sale, thinking they may have known someone from the band to have 4 copys of it
Thank you, I appreciate that...thank you very much for sharing your four gems 😊 ✌️
Dude what a find! What luck!
So true 😊😁
Excellent presentation
Thank you 😊
My flea market find was S.F. Sorrow by The Pretty Things, which some people call The First Rock Opera. Also the first Cars album, and I’d never heard of them at the time.
The rarest record I ever saw was “Surfin” by The Beach Boys on Candix. It was on display at a used record store and not for sale at the time.
Awesome stuff. As a thrifter for the past 30 years: happy for you and jealous as heck! ;)
😁😁..I appreciate that 🙏 💯 ✌️
Nice turn man.
Great finds! Just found your RUclips, nice collection.
Thank you, much appreciated 🙏 ✌️
All I can say is WOW !
😊😁...thank you 😊 ✌️
Keep up the great work Kenny. All the best from friends in Australia.
Thank you and thanks for watching from Australia 😊
The cover of the Beatles record was changed and you have the rarer copy, a great find,
Thank you for the information 😊
Hello sir!..You are a man after my own heart. Just stumbled upon your channel and was tickled pink over the fact that somebody else collects real albums. I don't have nearly as many as you. I also have a few watches as well. I found that amusing too. Are you sure we're not related? Lol.
Nice haul man. Confrats!
Thank you 😊
Hi kenny some great finds there, the rarest album I came across was by a folk rock psych duo called fresh maggots, it was among a pile of crappy records that I had looked through weeks before on a local flea market, and after reading the British record collector magazine and seeing it mentioned in there the memory came back about it so I was surprised to see it was still there, if cost me about £1.00, it's selling for over grand now, but it's not what it's worth it's what someone will pay for it.
Thank you very much for sharing that. You are correct, it's what's someone is willing to pay.
Wow...nice haul. And loving the watch you're sporting and the one on your side! Vinyl and watches.....great combo, Kenny! What is that cool watch on your wrist? Looks nice. And for $1.99, its just treasure hunting fun!
Thank you very much 😊 😁 ✌️
Great stuff, love the albums,
Thank you 😊 ✌️
I found a record at a rare goodwill in Anaheim Ca. Called "The Happy Sound" and it had a amazing oldie "Think twice" it's valued at 250 to 300 dollars its Layola records label ,I paid $4 😊
GREAT find 👏 👍 👌 🎶
Wow! I have that Beatles album but paid a lot more than $1,99. Great find!
Thank you 😊
I used to live near amoeba records I would go record hunting every weekend love finding gems ,best song on the Tull album is teacher
Now I gotta start going to the thrift stories here in Birmingham. And we have a thump of them.
I hope the thrift store hunting goes well 😊
Rarest Records - Karen Dalton - "In My Own Time" (found in trash)
Buckingham Nicks (found on side of road)
Art Blakey/Jazz Messengers Blue Note (with crates of other rare/vintage jazz records abandoned on loading dock).
👏 👍 ...Awesome finds in unlikely and unusual locations 👏
Crazy good find for a Butcher.
😊😁🎶 ....I still don't believe it 😊
I found Rene John - Road To My Cathedral in a Goodwill in Flint, MI for $.50
Far rarer than a butcher cover, but less well known with fewer people seeking it, it still goes as high as $1000 when in top condition.
My copy had a missing a label and stains on the cover but still sold for $365 back in 2013.
It was a demo record. 100 copies were made. An Acid Archives review said five known copies existed. I apparently found number six!
I need to get that Harvest for the World for sure
Great album and song 🎵 👌 👏
The rarest album I ever bought was Santana's Lotus album 40+ years ago. Back then it was only available as a Japanese import. It didn't get released on an American label until later. I paid a premium price for it.
I have a Beatles “Yesterday and Today” that’s a Butcher Cover but I haven’t and won’t steam it off. I know what’s underneath. I bought it new in 1966 and it’s still is! 👍
Great video the butcher CVR at a yard sale takes the cake mate
Thank you 😊
What a find Kenny butcher cover at a thrift store you can't beat that at all
I have seen the one off copy in blue vinyl of the Beatles White Album. It is on display at the Beatles museum in Liverpool.
Great finds Kenny!
Thank you and thanks for watching ✌️
That Beatles Butcher cover looks like one where the original own peeled off the sticker covering the original cover.
The best, most valuable record I’ve found at the thrift shop…1963 The Supremes, meet The Supremes
Last one I saw on Discogs, sold for $750
But I’ll never sell it !
Awsome find 😊 👏
Great video my good man.
Not bad musical taste either :-)
Well done!
I appreciate your comments, thank you very much for watching my video 😊 ✌️
Recently found Herbie Hancock's Thrust and Dusty In Memphis WLP in VG ++ at my local thrift for $1. I've had similar finds a few years ago but its getting harder and harder to dig these kind of finds since the vinyl renaissance.
I have a first edition Samual Clemmons, Adventures of Tom Sawyer that I payed $3.00 for at a Savers a while back. I used to SCORE with jewelry but they got some fancy equipment and they price gem stones way differently. I have a book and record collection that looks like I spent enough to buy a couple of houses for next to nothing.
amazing finds
It was a great day for me 😊..thank you very much for watching my video ✌️
Let me try making this message a second time 😞
.
Those two Star Wars soundtracks you had are two records I've been looking for for many years. Actually the first SStar Wars is the main one I listened to growing up.
Back at the end of June, I had to go down to Houston to sell the family house. I had about 400 albums I had left down there when I moved to where I live now in 1992. But somewhere around 1998, I started looking for my records down in Houston and could not find them. After a decade or so of looking when I would make it down there I finally concluded that my sister or my dad must have thrown them away when they lived in the house. But as me and my friend were loading up the truck and trying to move what I could get, I found about 50 of my records. Somebody had stored them away in the junk room and with my lack of much vision send some eye surgeries went wrong in 2001, I never could find them in there until moving stuff out of the house. And both of those Star Wars albums were in there. But unfortunately the Texas heat and the house being left for a decade with nobody living in it and the AC shut off didn't do those records any favors. Plus, me being 10 years old in 1977 when I got the Star Wars double album didn't help things either. They ween't really warped but they were scratched really bad.
So long story shortened, I'm still looking for a good copy of at least the Star Wars 2 LP set and it's that exact same one you had found. There was a little bit of light at the end of the tunnel. Out of the 50 or so records that I found, a few of them were still in excellent shape and sounded great. I was really surprised and I was convinced that if I ever did find them in the house they would all be melted haha!
Brian in fort Worth 🎶
Hey Brian...sorry about what happened to your Star Wars records. I hope that you are able to find the one's that you are looking for. Those Star Wars albums are great and it took me some time to find them. I believe that I may have them on CD but it's nice having the albums.
I hope all is well with you and thank you for watching my video 😊 ✌️
@@kennysaudiophilerecordreviews it's kind of funny because a couple of weeks ago I saw another YT video where a guy was flipping through some records and that Star Wars original was in there. I'm sure I'll find a good copy one day and I'll keep looking. $2 was great and you got a deal 👍 I don't really listen to classical music but John Williams and the London Symphony Orchestra really did a great job on that movie's soundtrack. I literally played that record to death back when I was young. I'll find me one someday and thanks for the reply Kenny. And enjoy your copy too 👍
Nice haul dude. Lots of great albums and only 1.99 each? 🎉 I gave all my vinyl to my kids. I like the “quality” of the old records but I can’t tolerate the snap, crackle, and pop! of LPs. Enjoy your collection.
I hope that you kids enjoy your collection 😁
I knew from what you said that it would be the Beatles album. Extremely rare.
Beatles record looks like a release that had the cover overlay that they peeled of hence the condition
Agree
I also agree.
Hi Kenny I'm pretty new to the channel but I love it thank you so much for doing everything you do. Do you curate playlists anywhere like on Spotify or even RUclips of your favorite jazz or other music?
Thank you very much for watching my video 😊...I am very sorry but I do not curate playlist but the albums and music that I mention on my videos can be easily found on RUclips.
Great finds!!! Wait... Goodwill still has $1.99 records? Everytime I go there, They're always $3.99... at least here in Houston.
My dad managed to find the rarest record I’ve ever seen twice, eight years apart, for around a dollar. He sold them for $2000 each. It had been made on a private label by a local folk group. Only 50 copies were pressed and given out to friends and family back in 1971.
Third state Butcher for $1.99 !!! That is incredible,
Your, Deodato - Prelude records is easy to spot ;)
