It's great seeing all the singles. For some reason I've never collected 12" singles, other than a couple strays here and there. Looks like you have a fantastic collection. Thanks for showing part of it!
Wow, I never see anyone show The Trash Can Sinatras. I love the track you sampled. Joy and Pain! I have that and 911 is a Joke. The Cure too! Excellent.
Luther=Respect! A stellar showing of 12"s, Mark. It's fun going back and playing this stuff. I haven't thought of the Trash Can Sinatras in forever. Thanks for the mention too! 😎🎶
White Lines is one of our favorite road trip tunes to blast in the car once we hit the highway! Not because we’re doing lines in the car, it’s simply because we’re watching those white lines on the asphalt fly by on our way to vacay Paradise. The first song we played when we get into the truck and pull away from the house is Willie Nelson‘s “on the road again” The trashcan Sinatra’s is an amazing record! Rob Base and the music from that time period are ingrained in my soul. I spent so much time out on the Dancefloor to those tunes! Great stuff Mark!
That's great, Steve. A while back, I had a job that I really disliked. I would play "Highway to Hell" on my way to work. It really helped! Those dance singles bring back so many great memories.
I'm all about the twelve! They were the best kept secret in the VC, but now the prices are starting to creep up! Basically they are all I buy now, the UK is flooded in them, I buy about 3 a week & the cost is less than a tenner for the lot. Awesome sound quality, unigue sleeve, nine minute versions. Whats not to love?? The two Trashcan Sinatra albums are underrated, very similiar to the First Aztec Camera album 'High land, hard rain' which you can still pick up cheap over here.
12" singles are pretty affordable in the US, but like everything else, their value will go up as more people show interest in them. I've been on the lookout for Smith's singles for a while now. Those are pretty pricey, though. I’ve been listening to a lot of my singles. Having a great time doing so! You're right-one song on a side equals a great-sounding recording. Hope all is well!👍

Thanks, Randy. I don’t add much to the collection. There are a few artists on my wish list.

The Sinatras are a great band. It's interesting how some bands don't get the recognition they deserve. Thanks, Brian.
I like 45's, but I do prefer 12" w' 1 or 2 or 3 extra tracks ! Trashcan Sinatras are excellent 😊 I might order Actually Pet Shop Boys soon..
Those are fighting words, Jt!🙂Actually might be my favorite Pet Shop Boys album.
It's so good, I've always owned it only on Cd and cassette. I hear the inexpensive re issue sounds good !
Hey Mark! Agreed - the Trash Can Sinatras have a great, warm sound. Awesome singles!
Thanks, Dave. The Trash Can Sinatras seems to be the fan favorite.

It was great to see your video. The 12-inch single was really popular in the '80s.
Video made me think of three records from 1990 that were big in my world, Bell Biv DeVoe, public enemy and Tony! Toni! Toné!.
Can’t go wrong with any of one of those artists!

The music of our youth and those were some great 12 inches. Growing up only discovered really had a 12 inch otherwise you had to go with 45 inch
Thanks Steve. Good memories🙂

Im the same way with record shopping prefer 12in singles and b sides, great for price, sound and art.
