Appreciate the shoutout, and glad this topic resonated with you sir! I’ll label myself “record enthusiast” if only because I’m still enthusiastic about the hobby, the music behind it, and the people who play it. 🤘🏻
Interesting stuff. I was actually lucky enough to do a podcast with Chance & I made the same point. Ive just checked & its about 28 minutes into the video...our thought are very similiar
I wouldn't' bother trying to label myself as anything. I can't care less how other label me either. Life is way too short to worry about things like this. After all, we are here because in one way or another, we all enjoy (and some love) the experience of listening to vinyl. And that is what I watch when I come to your channel, the experience you share with each of the records you present to us. I can't care less if you are collecting, accumulating, amassing, gathering, stockpiling, garnering, acquiring or compiling them. If you can find the record out of your "pack" and you can present it to us, I am game !!! Don't derail from the great job you are doing because how others label you. Not that I think you would. Let's spin some records, lets have some fun. You don't have to be a collector for that to happen, nor do you have to avoid being one. Cheers Jazz
Interesting subject matter. I consider myself a record lover. Most of my friends think I'm nuts, so be it. I buy records I like to listen to. My collection comes out to around 12,000+ vinyl LP's and a few hundred CD's that were never released on vinyl. I will keep buying them while I find records I love. Take care. Enjoy the music.
I'm right there with you Kendall. I've only got one unopened, unplayed record in my entire collection. It's an original sealed copy of Talking Heads "Little Creatures" that was given to me, and obviously I didn't want to destroy the value of it when that's an album that's easily attainable. Everything else I own I bought so I could listen to it. I really dislike when people cast judgment on the way others enjoy a hobby. I mean, who cares if I buy records to play them, another guy buys them as an investment, and someone else just likes owning all 605 pressings of Dark Side of the Moon? If it makes you happy, it's a beautiful thing. The great thing about hobbies is there's no "right" way to enjoy them.
I’ve hard core collected everything Bee Gees for 47 years! Otherwise - I’m a record listener. I’ve never sold a record for money or profit. All for my own enjoyment. My Bee Gees Collection brings me joy! As do all my other records and CDs in what I call my music listening library! When you have been into music and physical media for 50+ years it naturally grows and turns into a personal music library not unlike books for book fans… or movies .. which I also have tons of. I live physical media… including the hunt and excitement of cleaning and sleeving and listening newly acquired records!
Very nice! I also have a ton of movies as well. I don’t buy as much as I used to though. Don’t have the space and everything is easily available now on so many streaming platforms but I still like owning the physical copy if I can!
I. Just going to call you Kendall, it’s less complicated for us older folks. I have no real care about pressing, I do like OGs. If someone comes over to look at my records I do tell them I’m a record collector, not a serious one but I have some very rare stuff that I do listen to but not that often. When you start getting over 1000 albums you can fall into that collector mode as most of these you may not listen to for years. My wife would say they now collect dust lol. Interesting topic, I am a big fan of Chance. Maybe it should be a record enthusiast
Yeah I really don’t know what to call it Steve! I just really wanted to make the point that there isn’t a right or wrong way to do it or label yourself and people shouldn’t really tell someone that the way they do it is right or wrong. Thanks for watching Steve!
i like music i like records i buy records to listen to if a record doesn't bring me joy i have no issue selling or trading it.just my opinion kind of silly to think much on what to label myself or others.i personally could careless what others want to label me or what other peoples intent on buying records are that's just me tho.
The point I was just trying to make is that there are people out there that try to say or tell you there is only one right way to do this and if you don’t do that way you are wrong! That isn’t how this community should work and for the most part it doesn’t but it ticks me off to see those that treat others that way.
To be honest i personally do not know anybody who buys vinyl records and puts them on display. A vinyl record is just a physical media which contains music and i would assume people with a vinyl record collection are music lovers who appreciate listening to music on physical media. I do see some extreme vinyl record hoarders in the VC though, which makes me question their intentions.
That’s honestly my point, there is no right or wrong way to really do it but yet there are some out there that say there is only one right way to do it. That’s why I said if that’s the case then none of us are doing it right if we go by definition. The hoarders well I have a whole other opinion on that matter.
I dont need to check a box or label myself. I have bought a record and not listened to it for a year...does that make me a collector? I have stuff that has 3 or 4 listens and then has been shelved for 2 or 3 years. What does that make me? I dont know...again i dont feel the need to put myself in a bucket of THIS or THAT. I agree with you about Chance and his take on his latest podcast/video. I also have a modest channel. I share my opinions. People like or they dont. I appreciate you asking for viewers feedback. I subbed your channel. Looking forward to seeing more.
I appreciate your feedback and the sub. Honestly my point with this video is that there are so many people out there that do judge or “Gatekeep” and it’s really sad so if we get down to their level then none of us are doing this right! So if that’s the case then what does it matter? It’s doesn’t matter how you do it or really label yourself.
Im kinda record collector but im like u i dont buy for display or value or pressings if i dont like dylan or floyd or Whoever 😊im not buying it just cause its loved by others i listeen to mine i have cds cassette becaUse if i go camping or sit outside i crank up my boombox lps arnt portable

@@ConcertBuddie I like that! Very good way to label yourself!
