Hi Andy! I love rummaging through things. I got the bug from my Grandmother. She used to take with her to rummage sales when I was 8 years old. I remember her digging through boxes of other people’s things and always finding something she wanted. She couldn’t afford to buy new nice things so she was happy to buy someone else’s nice used things. Glad you enjoyed the video. Cheers from New Mexico.
Good to see the store owner was open to your feedback. That was a great example you highlighted. Pretty cool 78 there. Hope you're relaxing and enjoying your time away! I always enjoy flip videos.
@@mad4vinyl802 Hi Mark! Completely enjoying my time away! It’s so beautiful up here and record hunting is so different from the Los Angeles scene. Thanks for visiting!
Hey! Glad you picked up those two New Grass Revival albums. I don't see many of those older recordings around these parts. Nice views behind you at the end. Majestic mountains. Very cool part of the world. Hedley
Hey, Hedley! I was so happy to find those 2 New Grass Revival albums in such beautiful condition! The vinyl is pristine on both records. I pick up a lot of great Folk, Country and Bluegrass in this neck of the woods. I also find some rare obscure artists and ambient music. It’s the best combination of classic old world, hippies and artsy modern folks I know of. Thanks for joining me, Hedley. 🙏🏽
Steve it was pretty surreal seeing you do the thing we are all stuck doing! Looking through thrift store bins that have been well picked through!! You have to be able to enjoy the smaller things it’s good to see you’re able to find excitement from normal record shopping being that you have these awesome storage situations
@@arzabael Thanks, Buddy! I always find something I enjoy or have never seen or nobody else has ever see, like a rare 78 drywall screwed to an acoustic ceiling) lol. That’s what keeps me doing this. Quoting one of my musical heroes, Bill Evans, I live for the joy of discovery. ✌🏽
Your advice to the lad on Ray Charles record was spot on. I was in an antique store and they had Two trashed Beatles records for $80 each. I wouldn’t have taken them for free.
Thanks, Greg! Most of the records I flipped through had been way over priced. Those same records were there in May. I picked a few good ones from my last trip. Guess they haven’t gotten anything new since I was there last. My last trip I told the owner what I was willing to pay and then showed her on her cellphone eBay why she was asking way too much for the records. She was actually grateful and gave me very prices. I tried to do the same thing at an antique store where I scored those killer $1.00 records last year up here in Taos. The owner got so offended and spoke to me so rudely that I gave him a piece of my mind. Then he kicked me out of his store 😆😂. Luckily the day before he sold me 25 records for a $1.00 each and they were all worth at least a minimum of $25.00 each and as high as $100! First place I’ve ever been kicked out of for not being a sucker. He wanted to charge me $125.00 (Mint OG) for a $20.00 reissue.
Rarely do I take anything home anymore. I picked up a copy of FREEDOM 2 LP comp for $1.50. Everything else is throw-aways at any price. One store is 3/1.00 and believe me when I say they've sat there for a few years including a Roxy Music LP I've donated which I should get back at that price.
Hi Henry. I agree it slim pickings at most thrift shops. Inventory is rarely refreshed and when it is it’s the same garbage they always get. Sometimes I get lucky in rural places like NM and shops like Jay’s Unique. I always find something decent here. Three years ago at this very thrift store I found a MINT Herbie Nichols Mosaic Box Set The Complete Blue Note Recordings for $20.00. It’s a $200.00 record in that condition. Good luck out there friend. ✌🏽
It was kind of interesting on what some of the collectible records were like Year of The cat, a record I love but not the most collectible. They really had a large selection of records and your were grabbing quite a few. I figured by now you owned every album Steve.
Do you know any pizza lovers who can restrain themselves to only one slice, Steve? 🤣 I buy records for three reasons, to keep, to sell and to give away. Remember I grab and build a stack and thoroughly check them for condition after I’m done digging. You’re right I pulled quite a few but in the end I only bought 6 records. I always put records back after asking myself, “Do I really need this record?” 😂 Thrift stores aren’t record collectors. Non record collectors think all the popular records are the most collectible. In some ways they are correct. Nostalgia impulsive vacationers are who most of them are targeting. It’s the rare and truly collectible records thrift stores and antique mall dealers often overlook as “Collectible”
Hi Gallo. You’re absolutely right. Those records have been expensive since 2012. Everyone want Los Tigres Del Norte, Los Angeles Negros, Los Bukis and don’t forget Chalino Sanchez. Thanks for looking out for me. Unfortunately the Tigres record vinyl was trashed. 😞. I always find amazing Norteño, Corridors and Ranchers records up here in Taos. I’m Latino and really enjoy those styles of music. Thank you for watching and commenting! Appreciate you! ✌🏽👍🏽👍🏽
I just love seeing these thrift flip videos although it pains me to see lots of records you'd never see here in the UK. The fact you can still grab many cheap under the radar things in the US compared to looking through the same old obvious records here in the UK, for example your Toquinho & Vinicius purchase. Was the Los Tigres Del Norte LP too rough to pick up? I see it has a Discogs price around $20+ and I'm guessing it was cheap? The other that got my spidey senses tingling was Genesis A New Beginning....I would have definitely took a punt on that. Someone has it listed on Discogs for $220 but it looks like they're very much trying their luck as it hasn't sold before and I can't see a listing on Popsike. Great stuff mate... cheers Nige
Hi Nige! I pass on so many good records in these flip videos. Reason being I either have them already of it’s just not to my taste. I about cried when I pulled the Tigres record out of the sleeve. The condition of the vinyl so far south it wasn’t worth a single Peso 😂 Being Latino I’ve been well raised on Norteño, Corridors, Rancheras, Banda, Rock en Español etc. You name it I’ve probably danced to it with my Tias (Aunts) before 😂 The Toquinho & Vinicius record is outstanding, so beautiful! I can’t seem to find the Genesis In The Beginning record in the video. Would you mind sending me the time marker please? Thank you, Nige! Always great to chat with you, buddy! ✌🏽
The Genesis is at the 18.33 mark, you took a good look at it. Like I say potentially not big money, certainly not $220 value but worth further investigation perhaps. Haha, nice one Steve...shame about the condition. I haven't got much knowledge in that South American area but some of those sleeves certainly look the biz. Cheers Nige
@TheVinylRecordMission That's it. I would imagine it's not got anything to offer musically (or it would have a rep online/sales history) but you just never know with these things.
Beautiful back drop.
Love New Mexico.
I love shops like that where you can have a real rummage. There were one or two I’d have taken home, if in good condition. Cheers Steve. 👍

Gotta love that early Rockabilly ! Lucky Joe Almond, a lot like early Hank Sr. 🎵
@@jtsrecordroom3963 Yep! I’ve always love that Trumpet label. Elmore James, Dust My Broom, on Trumpet 146 is one everyone wants in the 78 community.
Interesting ! I like streaming these 78s to find out about the music.. I just can't allow myself to start collecting them !
Great finds
I only brought home a few but I really dig them. 👍🏽👍🏽
Great finds! I’ll definitely hit up Jay’s on my way to Taos! Thanks Steve for the heads up.
@@poetsdreamsatc Happy to share the love. Enjoy!
hey steve fun looking at the records in there, a variety of music!!
@@WyomingDave I’ve found some amazing records there in the past. I guess I’ve picked it over.

Wow you found a PVC sleeve and sure enough you busted the LP out and holy MOLY
Right! The minute I picked up that record I knew! Ironic, after all the investigating I’ve done into off-gassing! Another fine example. ✌🏽
@@TheVinylRecordMission that’s called the law of attraction my friend
@@arzabael hahaha! You nailed it! 👍🏽👍🏽
I'll remember to keep looking up. More PVC sleeves 😔
Damn PVC is haunting me! 👻😂 Can’t even go on vacation without it ghosting me!

That mexican nortena band "Los Tigres del Norte", the older records are now very expensive.

@@nigelcampag1290 Now I remember! It was a gospel vocal record as in Book of Genesis.

I went through Questa once many years ago but all I bought was a green chile burger.
I wouldn’t be surprised if you ate at Wildcat’s Den.
@@TheVinylRecordMission Probably, a quick look at Google Maps shows very few restaurants in that small town.
Perfect example of horrible off gassing
Right, Dave! That was a killer example of off gassing! Maybe I save someone $10.00 😂 Great to hear from you brother!
I am always about $1 bids
Can you believe I forgot to go through the dollar bins! 😳😂 Darn I guess I have to go back lol.
