This was a great round table, you guys are the Last Jedi’s of the record Stores! I started going to record stores in 1974, when I was 10, National Record Mall was my local store in the mall, I loved being there it was the heart of the mall. So time has marched on the closest Record Store is 40 minutes away. My son doesn’t understand the experience of shopping over n over looking for that 1 album you’ve wanted or being there the day of new releases.
Yeah it’s a lost art form hunting for music in person at your favorite store digging until you find that hidden gem. I wouldn’t trade anything in the world for it.
Great chat. To be fair XYZ is probably a slightly tricky one to find. I mean you could find the label XYZ but the label isn't for the band but for all bands that start with X, Y or Z.
It's great to hear the perspective from a record store, and they do it for the love of music, not to just make money, that is what it's all about, fans first.
This was great, hope to see more of these. You spoke about younger people coming into the store, including some in future videos would be a cool way to get their perspective.
Brendon, I love all your videos. I don't normally make comments but just wanted to say I love hearing about your passion for music. I found the Record Store Roundtable especially interesting. Your guests shared the same passion that you and I have for physical media. \m/
This was an awesome video. I have spent my fair share of time in the industry from record shops to various label positions. I miss it, but unfortunately life has me in a spot where all I can do is promote and push it from the outside. There is nothing like a record store, and the fellas are right… you don’t own a record shop “to make money” you do it for the love of music. The discount thing always rattled my nerves. But I understood most people didn’t understand the pricing and how it worked. It is absolutely awesome the story the dude told about giving away record players because he’d rather see the elation in the kids face and have him come back month after month then sitting on a player that takes up space to maybe make $10 off of it. I loved NJ for its record shops moving down here to Jacksonville has been hard finding shops. Found three, been two… I am aware of two more in St Augustine. When you were in FLA any shops? I know you have been up north for awhile so the ones down here may not be here still, but I’ll take a road trip for a record shop. My buddy and I used to leave the house at 9am and take a day and hit 5, 6, 7 shops…. I love it. I wanna get back into it again one day soon. Great video!
Man i absolutely love shops like this spend at least an hour sorting threw cds shops like this i always leave with something and always come back to support them.
Killer episode, so informative and fun. We had an awesome store named Eides here In Pittsburgh. They had everything and knew everything. I'd grab 10 albums a week, then they just started seeing me come in and started giving me free promos and stuff, and I was just a teen but they took extra care of me. Love the record store that appreciates you
It’s always cool to be able to pass music along and turn people onto great music. I’m glad you had such a cool experience growing up. Those memories will last a lifetime. 👍
What a great video and interview it just made me feel like a kid again when going to a record store, i feel like i want someone to hire me so i work at one.. Very nice and down to earth people sounds like i know you all for a long time and we shall hang out and talk music and shit... Thank you again for this great vid. cheers
Lynyrd Skynyrd wasn't a person but Leonard Skinner was.... 😂. Great video and points made about joys and struggles of running a shop and customers! Especially about joy of customers being so happy getting a new album they have been waiting forever to come out. Plus the Record Store people who know every aspect of music and are guides to new music. My favorite memory, I know weird, but the smell of a newly opened CD and case is so unique and etched in my memory forever. Keep up the great dialog and information.
To this more often. Lot's of fun listening to their pet peeves. I didn't know that Brandon worked at a record store. Love the content in this video. I salute you guys with a tip of my hat.
Really enjoyed the video Brendon. Just the kind of conversation and banter I hope for when I go to the record shop. The part you talked about, finding new artists, either old or new, even though we’re grown ups now, so glad to hear other people talk about that, cause I’ve never bought into that thing where you’re stuck listening to what you dug when you were like, 22. Matt on Too Many Records turned me on to Phoebe Bridgers (new), guy at my record store got me hooked on Big Thief (newish) and just the other day Norman Maslov was playing Quicksilver Messenger Service (old) and now I HAVE to have that! Keep it up, I’m enjoying your videos over here in Norway and it’s been inspiring me to make my own as well.
I bought Cinderella-Live at the Keyclub cd,from US to Finland.. and that work fine..but nowadays they are stucking on customs..if you’re already paid customs duty, you cds are still stuck in.. when you’re ordered outside EU. Earlier i have ordered UK and Japan, but nowadays it doesn’t work so good. 🤔🌞✌️
Great video and the guys from vinyl addiction seemed very relaxed and knowledgeable. Was amusing that all your gripes in dealing with the public were things that did not faze vinyl addiction staff in the slightest.
Anthony comes off like the Comic Book Guy from the Simpsons. Don’t be the reason why people don’t go to record shops. But I like the content. The other guys are cool here.
Love the roundtable hope we can get more in the future
Ref : 17:44 As a metalhead I couldn’t stand bands like Steely Dan…but as an adult I “get it” now and think they are brilliant.

I looked at the thumbnail and said to myself, "These young punks have never owned a shellac in their lives"
I read this comment and said to myself “this guy is a dick”🤣
This was great, hope to see more of these. You spoke about younger people coming into the store, including some in future videos would be a cool way to get their perspective.
0:39 I like these guys already. Stick to your guns. Also, great format. Fun all the way.
Cool! We certainly all had fun ourselves filming this episode. Hopefully more to come.
I’m a year late but this was awesome!
Glad you enjoyed it!

Cool! Thanks for commenting and letting me know you especially enjoyed this video. Always great when we can connect like that.

Hey Brendon. Such a cool video. Great talk, topic to topic, free flow and easy. Great great session. Need to continue it bud. Thanks
Man i absolutely love shops like this spend at least an hour sorting threw cds shops like this i always leave with something and always come back to support them.
You can’t beat a good record store. Especially one with cool people having great conversations about music.

Really interesting watch. Loved it ❤
Glad to hear it! 👍
Cool video. Interesting to hear your discussion on a wide array of topics. “Do It Again “to quote Steely Dan.
Thanks! I certainly hope so! It was a lot of fun for us.
Great Video Brendon
Really Enjoyed it

Only thing missing from this discussion is a big, fat spliff.
Thanks to all, y'all.
Not for me but if that makes you happy, enjoy!
hey Anthony🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘!
Happy Memorial Day.
Happy Memorial Day!
Cool banter
👍
The Sleeping are an awesome band!
Great video and the guys from vinyl addiction seemed very relaxed and knowledgeable.

Now I need to know where they are putting Molly Hatchet.
Haha…yeah that’s another one! 😂
👍👍👍👍👍👍

We had a fun time doing it with no idea where we’d end up but it was cool to watch it unfold.
