Michael, the joy and satisfaction you share about music is so refreshing. Some audiophiles go down the gear rabbit hole.
I also want to thank you for suggesting the first German pressing of Dark Side Of The Moon. I was able to find a VG+ copy and am shocked how much better it sounds.
Your enthusiasm is a joy to watch. Hope you find another amazing top 10 in 2024.
Your enthusiasm about our hobby is amazing! It seems to jump out of my computer screen right into me! You, and people like you keep my passion at a very high level! I just wish I could afford to support this channel monitaraly, but until then you have it in views and likes! Be around as long as your channel is, hopefully that's a long time!😊
Saying "I had a lot of trouble finding my balls," without even a snicker, is just a testament to your fandom.
Hi Michael
I've been watching your videos for a long time. I started a vinyl collection last year thanks to your enthusiasm. It has been a fantastic and expensive experience .😁
Have a great Christmas and see you in 2024.
thank you so much Ray!
Always enjoy the Year End - Top Ten and this one did not disappoint. Yes, this is a wonderful journey and look forward to 2024 ! Thank you, Michael !
Thank you for your never ending support Daniel!!!!
Life is designed to be enjoyed, and to find a community of Like Minded - Lovers of Music to discuss our hobby is easy to support. Building memories through Music ! Thank you, Michael !
Thank you Michael 45. Love your content. Season’s Greetings. Let’s hope 2024 is a healthy peaceful year.
Beautiful, stunning, so happy for you Micheal.🤩
Kluster unbelievable finds two beauties 👍
You inspired me, Michael. Perhaps it's time for a top ten worst vinyl purchases of 2023?! 🤣
I can't imagine how you can top those Klusters but we'll see what the new year brings. All are impressive to see, that Two-gether is such a cool record.
Condition is really important. I'm getting rid of lps in my collection that don't play cleanly throughout. Thanks for your excellent videos.
I came across the Riechmann Wunderbar through your video. Thank you for that, a fantastic record..👍🏻
Just amazing! Thanks for a wonderful year in vinyl, Michael.
This has to be one of the best year end lists for 2023, key words: “possible because of connections “ so true , looking forward to 2024 when I can broaden my collection with gateways you have created to Europe etc …Saludos !
My best to you and yours during this holiday season and throughout the coming new year.
I was going to spend £200 on the durutti column sand-paper album a couple of months ago. I was very tempted but I pointed out to the record shop owner that the sandpaper would be very painful when my wife beat me with it for spending £200 on one record lol. I always love your videos Michael you have great taste
Amazing finds this year Michael.
Congratulations the condition is key for these originals .
It takes a collection to another level.
The Jade Warrior,Syd The Barrett &
Twenty sixty six my standouts from the your top ten.
Thx Michael great video .I love a top ten ✊
I think Ian glued all of those together or at least that's what the story says, apparently meanwhile the Column amused themselves watching adult movies on a newly installed giant flat-screen. It was said that he stopped spraying the covers after the first few because the smell of the spray-paint mixed with the glue he was using was making him high. Who knows with Factory records stories and legends but I think members of the Column did seem to concur with the story. I considered myself very lucky to even hold one in my local record shop. It's a great album too. Thanks again Michael.
Great records, really enjoyed the countdown - many thanks for sharing Michael.
great year for finding vinyl Michael 🙂
wishing you a happy and peaceful Christmas, from Nick
Michael found his balls in Den Bosch. First pressing! 😂
finally i have my balls...
Great video!!
Happy holiday Michael! Cheers,Chet Pielock
Ich schreibe Dir mal auf deutsch. Das sind wunderbare Platten ,einfach phänomenal diese sein Eigen nennen zu dürfen. Nun war ich Jahre aus dem Thema Platten raus ,Dein durch Zufall entdeckter Kanal hat mich wieder auf den Geschmack gebracht, dafür erstmal vielen Dank. Durch Dich Riechmann Wunderbar entdeckt und auch gekauft,das gleiche gilt für Twenty Sixty Six .
Und meine erste Plattenbörse habe ich besucht, aufgrund Deiner Videos zu Den Bosch,natürlich war es Den Bosch . Mach weiter so,und nochmal Danke für soviel Inspiration.
Hi Michael, ten is difficult with so much great new music. Yes still hear lol. I can see there is some great music I need to check out. Enjoyed watching brother, the sky is the limit, thank you.
thx for watching till the end Royce :-)
@Michael45RPM You're welcome!
Happy Holidays!
Of all the vinyl record RUclips video year-end lists I have watched, this is the most amazing. Wow! Thank you! Mic drop… 🎤
Happy New Year! 🎉
Nice video and nice records! Thanks for the introduction.
I hope we will get a top 10 new releases this year from you please, that would be very interesting. Thank you as always for taking the time to make this video.
Fantastic as always! I’m most envious of Machine Gun. Iconic record to say the least. Been looking for a copy for 12+ years now. One day…
Have a great day Michel. //Jonas
i agree... one day :-)
The bottom is falling out of the market. Finding some great vinyl now, much less expensive. The pristine stuff is still way over priced.
Finally prices insane imo
Just a comment out of left field for you. You have a great voice and your light German accent makes it even better. You give me vibes of a 1950s beatnik. I guess you have to be above a certain age to even know what that means. I enjoy your passion for music and records, your clips are very interesting and entertaining.
Damn!!! That is some serious heat. Congrats! My gut is telling me 2024 is going to be even better.
i agree.. it will be amazing Joe!
Hi Michael, the best 2023 buy was a first pressing 1998 Boards of Canada - Music has the right to the Children (NM with braille sticker) These records are hard to find in a perfect shape, get it here in Austria.. - thanks for your videos and Knowledge
Just discovered your channel because I was looking for Kaya Abbey Road half speed reviews. Keep the awesome content. Greetings from sunny Costa Rica.
So nice to see these. I only bought a few new releases because my racks are full😶
Hello Michael! First time for me that I see you on the Record Far in Oberhausen. No chance to say "Hello.' Faster than Sppedy Gonzales.😂😂i wish you a nice third Advent evening!

Did “The Return of the Durutti Column” come in a sandpaper inner sleeve as well? (I’m kidding 😂)
Hi Michael, I saw your dual pocket outersleeves and I bought them. But what do you do with the LP's at a gatefold album - do you put the 2 LP's together in the pocket at the back side or do you split them (one in the pocket at the back side and on in the pocket at the front side)? And how do you handle trifold albums? Thank you very much for your answer and kind regards, Stefan
you need to zse 2 sleeves and create a gatefold.. look in my videos i explain it in the Video about the sleeves
@@Michael45RPM: Thank you very much for your comment. That's clear. But what do you do with 2 Vinyl LP's when you have a double LP-Gatefold. Both LP's in one pocket or one LP in one pocket?
It would help to include the names of the artists and the names of the albums in the description. Sometimes it's hard to understand from the video alone.
Great finds, Michael. It’d be difficult to put together the top 5 records I found this year. Great seeing those fantastic albums, especially the Kluster records. The condition of those is almost unbelievable. Thanks, Michael.
Edit: The changes you’ve made in collecting habits has been great to watch, and I’m glad you’re now seeking out originals, as it takes time and effort to track a lot of em down, and they oftentimes are the definitive pressings.
What...what did he say ? 10:56
How many records were added this year compared to the last Michael?
way less as OG are way way more expensive
Rumor has it he’s still on the hunt for his “balls”…
Could you oblige me by tagging the video you did for triple albums using VSS/Mint products, I’ve acquired 4/5 recently had an unsuccessful quick hunt . Thank you, great VR
Do any of your records ever skip?
sadly yes.... then i return...
What's the story with the sun ra (zunn rha)? Can't seem to find any info on it.
I’m also not familiar with this release. Let me know if you find anything. Very curious.
it is a vacation for title OMNIVERSE in a handmade unique sleeve @@chriswood2310
All year I hear about Ice Castles, and... nothing. Disappointing
Es ist das schiere Vergnügen Ihnen bei Ihren Videos zuzusehen, wie Sie Ihr Thema ernst nehmen und es mit einer der angenehmsten Sprechstimmen, die ich kenne und einer überwältigenden Kultiviertheit präsentieren.
Millennials and Gen Z always looking for new collections from baby boomers who have died off
Peter Brötzmann Balls, bekomme ich nur hin mit einer Flasche Rotwein + Paracetamol im Anschluss... Echt trocken die Platte
Thanks for sharing your best of 2023 with us! the sun ra "zombi" is actually called "omniverse", that might make it easier to find for all of you in the www or a record bin
