As a Brit, I've gotten into one of the coolest American bands, Little Feat. They were the first band my dad ever saw live when they played in the UK. My dad had all their albums on vinyl other than Sailin shoes 1972. He did remember buying it but had to return it due to a fault. So I bought a brilliant pressing of the album for Xmas. All those Little Feat albums will forever be an important part in my collection.
@@robmimi6796 l think it was the first of their's l bought as well. It was bit of a grower, which the best albums sometimes are, Romance Dance, Someone's Leavin' Tonight and Mercenary Territory, superb!

“Buy the records you’re gonna listen too” could not agree with this more, as this is the advice I give all my friends when they acquire a record player...
In no particular order, more than 10 ofc: The Strokes - Is this it Radiohead - Kid A Radiohead - In Rainbows The Beatles - Revolver Pixies - Surfer Rosa Lauryn Hill - The Misseducation of Lauryn Hill Interpol - Turn on the Bright Lights Miles Davis - Kind of Blue The Smiths - The Queen is Dead Aphex Twin - Selected Ambient Works 85 - 92 Sonic Youth - Daydream Nation Pink Floyd - Dark Side of the Moon Erykah Badu - Baduizm Jamiroquai - Travelling Without Moving My Bloody Valentine - Loveless Kings of Convenience - Declaration of Dependence Fennesz & Sakamoto - Cendre The Clash - London Calling Sweet Trip - velocity : design : comfort Slowdive - Souvlaki Tame Impala - Lonerism Akira Kosemura - One day King Crimson - Discipline
I sold my whole album collection at one point in the 1970s to raise money. Years later I had to rebuy everything, plus more, as I had a better job. Worth it.
My top 10... U2’s Joshua Tree Fleetwood Mac’s Rumours The Band’s brown album Carole King’s Tapestry Joni Mitchell’s Blue Stevie Wonder’s Songs in the Key of Life Cat Stevens’ Teaser and the Firecat Marvin Gaye’s What’s Going On The Beatles Abbey Road The Beach Boys’ Pet Sounds
The doors debut Sticky fingers - rolling stones Hunky dory - David bowie Chicago transit authority Benefit - jethro tull Phsycal graffiti - led zeppelin Animals - pink Floyd Bridge of sighs - robin trower Crime of the century - supertramp 90125 - yes
I've just started collecting for myself (I got a bunch of old records from my parents) but the first one I bought for myself, that was absolutely necessary for me to own, was King Crimson, In The Court Of The Crimson King
@@starless1759 Red is absolutely fantastic, I must agree. But for me Epitaph and in the court of the crimson king were always my favourite songs by them, so I just had to own that album
My personal must haves: Nirvana: Nevermind Radiohead: Ok Computer Pink Floyd: Wish You Were Here Red Hot Chili Peppers: Californication Led Zeppelin: Led Zeppelin IV Paolo Nutini: Caustic Love Marillion: Misplaced Childhood Foo Fighters: Foo Fighters Arctic Monkeys: Whatever People... The Beatles: Abbey Road
I’m very very familiar with most of your list (and extensively those artists). what blew me away recently, and after about a month of solid listening made my top 10 was the album ‘hotel California’
So ok, I’m still very young. I have such a long road to discover music but I’ve been collecting and listening to new stuff for some years now so this is my list though it’s so difficult to decide and I’m sure that I’m gonna leave so many good albums out of it❤️ Top 15 you should own 1. A Night at the opera - Queen (I mean all of them but ok) 2.Led Zeppelin II - Led Zeppelin (Again all of them in my opinion) 3. Wish you were here - Pink Floyd (+DSOTM, Wall) 4. Abbey Road - The Beatles (For sure more) 5. Hunky dory - David Bowie 6. Paranoid - Black Sabbath 7. The chronicle - CCR 8. Are you experienced - Jimi Hendrix 9. Rumors - Fleetwood Mac 10. Greatest Hits - The Doors 11. Deep Purple in Rock - Deep Purple 12. Ritchie Blackmore’s Rainbow - Rainbow 13. Anthology - Janis Joplin 14. Nevermind - Nirvana (+MTV unplugged in New York one) 15. Slippery when wet - Bon Jovi Ik all of these are really basic but those are some of the best for me at least I only included rock stuff🤟 I have some other killer picks for different genres
Love the stories. For me that’s what collecting is about. I like that you are about having fun collecting and it’s not always about having an expensive record. I collect all genres. I love it when I show my collection to family and friends. I bet you don’t have... love it.
Top 10 Definitive LPS everyone should own 1. The Velvet Underground & Nico 2. The Kinks “Village Green Preservation Society “ 3. Miles Davis “Kind Of Blue” 4. The Beatles “Rubber Soul” 5. David Bowie “Ziggy Stardust” 6. The Stooges “Raw Power” 7. The Rolling Stones “Exile On Main Street. 8. Otis Redding “Otis Blue” 9. Sam Cooke “Night Beat” 10. Neil Young “Zuma” Those are mine off the top of my head and it’s more for a starter kit and more accessible obviously yet still what I think is pretty essential
Interesting list, for sure. I prefer "Revolver"...but "Rubber Soul" was first. "Exile" is on my list as well. By FAR their best. I understand VU/Nico. I have the album. I keep trying to enjoy it. I just think it's over-rated. I have "Otis Blue" there as well. "Kind of Blue" goes without saying. Classic Miles before he got into the crazy "acid blues" BS. Listen to "Live at the Plug Nickle" if you never want to hear him again. ANY Sam Cooke makes this list. Not a fan of Young but appreciate him with CS&N. Stooges? Meh. Bowie did better albums than "Ziggy", IMO. I prefer "Diamond Dogs" or even "Let's Dance" (I know...blasphemy). LOVE the Kinks but top 10 is a reach. Nice list. Appreciate your taste.
You've inspired me. I'll give mine but in no particular order. These are just my favorite 10 albums: -The Beatles "Revolver" - Otis Redding "Otis Blue" - Miles Davis "Kind of Blue" - Sam Cooke. Pick any one you want. "Night Beat" is his quintessential masterpiece. - The Rolling Stones "Exile on Main Street". - Jimi Hendrix "Electric Ladyland" - Dr. Dre "The Chronic" - Led Zepplin "Physical Graffiti". - Pear Jam "Ten". - Johnny Cash "Live at Folsom Prison"
Top notch! Elton John - Don't Shoot Me I'm Only The Piano Player, Bruce Springsteen - The River, Ramones - Rocket To Russia, Depeche Mode - Violator, New Order - Substance, The Clash - London Calling, Dwight Yoakam - Guitars, Cadillacs, Etc., Steve Earle - Guitar Town, Sex Pistols - Never Mind The Bollocks, The Cure - Kiss Me, Kiss Me, Kiss Me. This list changes, so hard to pick 10!
It's always interesting to compare your own favourite/important albums with somebody else and I think that you've made some great choices. The only one from your list that would make mine is: Pink Floyd - Wish You Were Here. My other 9 would be: UFO - Lights Out Blue Oyster Cult - Secret Treaties Electric Light Orchestra - A New World Record Alice In Chains - Dirt Horslips - Aliens Rory Gallagher - Calling Card Jethro Tull - Stand Up Television - Marquee Moon The Stranglers - Rattus Norvegicus
Ten that just speak to my soul. In no particular order. Gong :You. The Orb: The Peel Sessions. Horslips: The Tain. Underworld: Dubnobasswithmyheadman. Smashing Pumpkins: Siamese Dream. Led Zeppelin: Physical Graffiti. Hawkwind: In Search Of Space. John Martyn :Solid Air. Agitation Free :Second. King Buffalo :Longing To Be The Mountain.
My favorites are the ones that bring back great memories. I'm always open though to new releases (or ones that I missed earlier) to form new good memories. Muddy should be in everyone's favorite list.
The album that played the biggest impact on me as a child was Jeff Wayne's - War Of The Worlds. And more recently aprox. 92" I discovered an album in a second hand store called Olias of Sunhillow by Jon Anderson. I bought it because of the cover art and it's awesome.
In my expert opinion, here are 10 albums you should own: 1. Rumours by Fleetwood Mac 2. Who’s Next by The Who 3. Abbey Road by the Beatles 4. MCMXC by Enigma 5. Night Song by Michael Brook and Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan 6. Trinity Sessions by The Cowboy Junkies 7. Led Zepellin IV by Led Zeppelin 8. Some Girls by The Rolling Stones 9. Communique by Dire Straits 10. Honky Chateau by Elton John 11. Tea For The Tillerman by Cat Stevens 12. L.A. Woman by the Doors 13. The Wild, the Innocent and the E. Street Shuffle by Bruce Springsteen 14. Greetings from Asbury Park by Bruce Springsteen 15. Full House by the J. Geils Band 16. Legend by Bob Marley 17. Wake Up You: The Rise And Fall of Nigerian Rock by Assorted 18. Breakfast in America by Supertramp 19. The Yes Album by Yes 20. Venus on Earth by Dengue Fever
@@jbojoify You can call me a troll for my goofy “expert” comments but i you were alive in 1976, that album dominated the airwaves and everyone owned the album. It still sounds fresh today.
Hmm...a top twenty without Pink Floyd.... I suppose it’s subjective but I’m suspicious of people that don’t acknowledge their obvious greatness, suggests prejudice or impatience.
Interesting story, several years back I bought a used, trashy Mackie 2408 mixer from a guy in Groton, CT who said he was selling off his dad's band touring equipment because his dad was really sick - too sick to meet me - and that they needed the money. He said his dad used to play in a band that toured all over the world and opened for The Rolling Stones, among other luminous bands. But he would not tell me who his dad was or the name of his band. Then I read in J. Geils' obit that he lived in Groton, dying after a prolonged illness. I own the touring mixing board of The J. Geils Band.
My all time favorite albums: Peter Frampton - Frampton Comes Alive! (Holds a place in my teenage years) Led Zeppelin IV Pink Floyd - Dark Side of the Moon Moody Blues - Days of Future Past Jeff Buckley - Grace Opeth - Ghost Reveries Fleetwood Mac - Rumours AC/DC - Back in Black Patti Smith - Horses
I am born and live in New Zealand on the other Side of world in the South Pacific and I'm totally into the same vynil and bands as you bro. Fantastic taste and there are guys all over the world who love this, i mean love this beautiful music brother. I have three of the 10 of original vynil handed down from my older brothers.
Not an album I listen to these days, but you are absolutely right. War Pigs is the best anti-war rock song I can think of. (I had to qualify my statement under "rock" because Pete Seeger's folk song Where Have All The Flowers gone is maybe the best anti-war song ever, period.) Paranoid is a seminal record, no doubt.
Perfectly well said Dillon. I recall stories from big time collectors finding tons of albums that were thrown into the trash bins. This goes back from the 70's into the late 80's. I can never understand vendors who price Elvis , Stones, Beatles, into the hundreds of dollars for the common pressings? However that's a weird one. I 'll give it to you for 4 bucks, are my kind of vendors to deal with?
13th Floor Elevators are just about my favorite 1960's group. Psychedelic Sounds is great, but Easter Everywhere, along with Stranded, by the Saints, and Grotesque, by The Fall, is one of my three favorite albums of all time. Fans & critics rave about Sgt. Pepper or Pet Sounds, but Easter Everywhere was the best R&R album of the 1960's. I don't have it on vinyl , only on CD (the other two I do have on vinyl, bought them when they first came out, but the Elevators were slightly before my time). A big vinyl store here in NYC on Thompson Street used to have a beautiful, original Psychedelic Sounds of the 13th Floor Elevators album in a special spot of honor on the wall and I asked them what it went for. The guy said, "What are you willing to pay?" and I said, "Forget it. If you ask me that, it's more than I could afford", LOL. I'll have to stick with the CD.
Floyd - WYWH 801 - Live Cat Stevens - Tea for the Tillerman Sabbath - Vol.4 Jethro Tull - Thick as a Brick Stones - Black & Blue Miles - In a Silent Way Hendrix - Electric Ladyland Traffic - Shoot Out at the Fantasy Factory Supertramp - Crime of the Century
AIC - Dirt Tull - Thick As A Brick Yes - Close To The Edge (best LP EVER) ACDC - Highway to Hell The Cult - Sonic Temple AIC - Facelift YES - Tales From Topographic Oceans Bad Company - Run With The Pack Led Zeppelin - IV YES - Fragile
I have most of those, though not all the early presses, and was surprised to see Death Cab. I saw them a lot around 99-02 because they would come to San Francisco a lot before they exploded. Two records that will always be at the top of my list are The Catherine Wheel's 'Chrome' and Swervedriver's 'Mezcal Head'... amazing 90s British alternative that influenced a lot of later artists. I think Ben Gibbard from DCFC even said that his band probably wouldn't exist if it weren't for Chrome, although they sound different.
My top ten: What's Going on - Marvin Gaye. Electric Ladyland - Jimi Hendrix. The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill - Lauryn Hill. Silk Degrees - Boz Scaggs. Kind of Blue - Miles Davis. Grace - Jeff Buckley. Sign O' the Times - Prince. Check Your Head - Beastie Boys. Higher! - Sly and the Family Stone. Tapestry - Carole King.
Great advice...its such an expensive obsession (hobby) you have to love what you buy. Streaming has helped tremendously to test out music before pulling the trigger.
I really like how personal all these records are for you. Your stories are fantastic and make this Top 10 list come to life. I especially enjoyed the dumpster-diving story! I remember coming across some GREAT records (and CDs) that were in the dollar bin and I’d buy them unheard, just figuring “what the heck”. Amazingly, these are some of my favorite discoveries! Here are two: BLOC - In the Free Zone, and Rebel Train - Seeking Shelter.
i love how down to earth you are. It's the personal stories about our attachment to music that mean the most and I don/t think we talk about them enough. Really appreciated this
For Me: Yes - Close To The Edge. Genesis- Foxtrot. Beach Boys - Pet Sounds. Beatles- St Peppers. Led Zeppelin - Led Zeppelin IV. King Crimson - In The Court Of The Crimson King. Fleetwood Mac - Rumours. Pink Floyd - Wish You Were Here. America - America. Within Temptation- The Unforgiving. Many others sadly, but these albums have been part of my life for decades and still do their magic.
I completely agree but what you love not what you think you should love. I recently decided to really get in to collecting after starting to collect years ago. The one I really wanted to find was Billy Joel “An Innocent Man” because of memories of my childhood, my parents had that record and they recorded it on to a cassette tape and we would listen to it on long car rides and I just always remember the cover so vividly. Plus it has amazing songs on it. Anyway I couldn’t find it unless I wanted to pay a stupid price online until I walked into your shop one day after Christmas and you had it so thanks for that. Collecting vinyl has been so great because it has brought be closer to my step daughters and it’s something my little girl loves doing know is listening to records with mommy and daddy and her sisters. Plus my wife has really gotten into and it’s something she lets me spend money on too! Great video and of course love the store!
Very wise and good video. For a long time I was against getting any represses because I thought good collectors only had originals. Eventually I had a similar revelation as you, I just wanted to buy records that I actually want to listen to! Some originals I'll never find so a listenable repress will do:)
Hey Dillon, I enjoy your channel, your top ten albums are some solid choices! It is wonderful to see the resurgence of vinyl and you being a great advocate. I am a 60 year old guy and enjoyed a lot of the heavy / prog rock classics back in the day, still do, and awesome to see your love for some of these. Here would be my top 10 list of record albums... Kate Bush - Hounds of Love Mazzy Star - So Tonight I Might See The Beatles - Abby Road Concrete Blonde - Bloodletting Beck - Morning Phase Pink Floyd - Wish you Were Here Portishead - Dummy Nirvana - MTV Unplugged in New York Collective Soul - Collective Soul Heart - Dreamboat Annie
I bought the single of Otis' Dock of the Bay right after I heard it on the radio. Electric Ladyland is an album I have enjoyed since it first came out, but I had never listened to it through headphones until a couple months ago - I was blown away. It is always wonderful to hear the enthusiasm people have for the music they love. I'm 71 now, but I have a lot of friends in their twenties and thirties. It is always special when they discover the music that I grew up with. I often wonder how different is is for them discovering that music long after it came out than it is for me hearing it fresh on the radio.
I'm 74 and saw band's like the WHO, Pretty Thing's, Small Face's, Pink Floyd, Ike & Tina Turner, Sonny Boy Williamson, at Dance's with around 200 other's. Normally around the time their FIRST single was a hit. LOL {Oh, I'm English}
i'm a teenager and i just recently started collecting records. i've always loved music... as long as i can remember. my favorite album of all time - whole lotta red was available at my local walmart and i just had to get it. that's what really got me into record collecting as a whole. another album that i would really love to have on vinyl is six pack by black flag. i really enjoy that album and it would stand out in my collection. once i rlly got into collecting i sought after abbey road by the beatles. i recently found it and got an amazing deal on it. if you're apart of the record collecting community i want to say thank you. as a younger teen who is niave and doesn't much about record collecting i've felt very welcomed by everyone i've spoken to online or in record shops. so thank you again. also thank you dillon for giving me awesome tips as well as helping me learn more about records.
Nice video. Our tastes are so similar. LZ 3 is my fave they did, Wish You Were Here is my fave PF and LA Woman is the first Doors album hunted down. You the man.
I,'ve always believed that music was photos from our past. My favorite songs/albums bring back memories of good times. As I listen to you your music I am connected to a time or memory from your earlier years. I am 67 now and when I listen to music with my sister we just start with "do you remember"... Music is a gateway to one's emotions and memories. There are songs that bring back memories of my past girl friends. I might have forgotten a few things due to age but music never lets me forget my good times as a teenager, continue listening you have many memories to grab onto. 40 years ago I traded Black Oak Arkansas for Cactus and my friend always brings it up. We both remember an obscure transaction through music. Hold onto your memories, you got the better of trading your green pants for Zeppelin III. Thanks for adding to my memories, I was playing music hangman and was stumped by 13 Floor Elevator, thanks for the memory and another awesome post. Bless you and those you love.
this is a clip that anyone with a home stereo and a chair and physical media should watch. Assemble the best sounding stereo you can easily afford and listen to what makes you happy. Sure, I have a listening room, but I still like to listen to Run DMC - Raising Hell on cassette with my orange Cody headphones. great vid. thanks for sharing.
Just getting into collecting Vinyl after 20+ years of wanting to and enjoying listening to it with my uncle for years. My first record was what I feel is the most important for me to own. Black Sabbath Master of Reality! Nothing special to most I'm sure.... When I first heard it when I was a youngster it changed everything for me... Massive Metalhead for so so long now and I always go back to the original Doom/Stoner Metal record. Bout half way through thier discography now. Working on Opeth, Tool and Deftones as well. Cheers man absolutely love your channel!!
This is such a thought provoking idea! Brilliant suggestion! 10 albums that shaped me . Deep Purple - Machine Head Mike Oldfield - Tubular Bells Pink Floyd - Dark Side of the Moon Wings - Band on the Run Billy Cobham - Spectrum Camel - The Snowgoose Steve Hackett - Voyage of the Acolyte Electric Light Orchestra - Time Jean Michel Jarre - Oxygene Jeff Wayne - War of the Worlds These are off the top of head, but an interesting journey. I agree with you, with reference to 'Wish You Were Here' it has a more majestic feel & is possibly better than'Dark Side of the Moon' but Dark is the ground breaking composition that really opened more eyes to PF's amazing talent. Great post 👍
Thanks for recommending that Death Cab For Cutie album, they're a band that have always passed me but i listened to that album today and its amazing! Cheers
Zeppelin 3 doesnt get enough love. zeppelin 1 gets love cause its the amazing breakout album, zeppelin 2 gets love because the guitar tones are legendary, zeppelin 4 gets love because stairway.... but god damnit, zeppelin 3 has since ive been loving you.
I don't have a huge vinyl collection, as I'm not a collector, I only have about 100. However most were bought on release and as I'm old so are they :) Electric Warrior - T Rex Ziggy Stardust - David Bowie Sheer Heart Attack - Queen Led Zeppelin IV - Led Zeppelin Give 'Em Enough Rope - The Clash This Is The Modern World - The Jam Outlandos d'Amour - The Police Bat Out Of Hell - Meat Loaf Back To The Bars - Todd Rundgren The Dreaming - Kate Bush And one I was given by an old hippy - the original three disc Woodstock album. Not claiming they are important - they are only important to me.
You really hit the nail on the head right away by sharing your ASSOCIATIONS with certain records. It's the same for me and I suppose any/every listener. And since everyone is doing it: New Order: Movement Dead Kennedys: Plastic Surgery Disasters Unwound: Fake Train The Cure: Seventeen Seconds Drive Like Jehu: Drive Like Jehu R.E.M: Green Sleep: Holy Mountain Shellac: At Action Park Pink Floyd: More Poster Children: Daisy Chain Reaction Honorable Mention: any Sonic Youth vinyl
I really appreciate your sharing your taste. Up til I started buying vinyl (a month ago) my music taste was limited and tightly focused. Now I'm branching out to a lot of things I would never have listened to and a great deal of those suggestions have come from you. Thank you so much.
When I saw this, my first thought went to “iconic” albums, those that would directly or indirectly change everything that followed. Frank Sinatra’s “In The Wee Small Hours” is the first album to have a narrative “theme” instead of being just a collection of random songs. Meet The Beatles - nowhere near their best album or even a great collection of songs The Beatles had already released in the UK, but it opened the floodgates of the British Invasion and music changed because of it. The Beach Boys’ “Pet Sounds” introduced the endless possibilities of the recording studio, almost inventing sounds previously unimaginable
That's what I'm doing, trying to get albums that have had an impact in my life. In January I bought Attaque 77's "El Cielo Puede esperar", My favorite album since middle school. I had a bootleg copy of that album, never owned an original copy until now and it's amazing.
Around 1979, I was browsing in a shopping mall record store. On the floor, next to the cash register counter were about eight open and sealed boxes. I asked the sales clerk about the boxes. He said they were boxes of the first four albums by The 13th Floor Elevators for sale. He said they were probably first print albums that they found in the back storage room or in the record storage warehouse. The sales clerk was not clear about where they were found. The albums were for sale for $20 each. The regular price of records then was $8.00. I bought the four albums. They were made of heavy, thick vinyl. This had to be my best purchase of music ever.
It's kind of funny hearing you start out with Led Zeppelin III. That one is one of my top tier, had to get first LP's as I started back into collecting again, vinyl anyhow, about a year and a half ago. I actually have almost all of my original Led Zeppelin LPs up through Physical Graffiti anyway, But my Zep 3 needed replacing in Is I started back and the remasters were of course out. That one takes me back to when I was about 16 somewhere around 1983 or 1984 when I had my dad's Roberts RX7 reel to reel 8-track recorded copy he made off of his Led Zeppelin III in the early '70s. I drove around in my mom's Grand Marquis sneaking out at night and it only had an 8 player in it. And the only 8 track I could find around the house at the time was Zeppelin 3. And I fell in love with that tape. It brings back some great memories every time I listen to it. It reminds me of all the fun, and trouble I wound up getting in After me and the car were discovered gone one night, from back in those years. A definite classic masterpiece!
Dude !!! Behind you , UFO Flying ! Fantastic album. Cool to see it on your shelf. Personally I think my finds are more serendipitous. Without anything in mind, looking and taking a chance on something that looks cool. One of the most stand out finds was Bongwater, Double Bummer.
i always appreciate the personal touch u give to yr videos man, love the stories. a lot of my all time favorites i don’t have on vinyl yet lol, but here are the 10 records i own that matter the most to me 10) pink floyd - the wall [vtg issue] 9) porter robinson - nurture [white vinyl] 8) jack white - fear of the dawn [moon glow vinyl] 7) pink floyd - wish you were here [vtg reissue] 6) temples - volcano [uk yellow vinyl] 5) mcr - the black parade [smoky clear vinyl] 4) white stripes greatest hits [standard] 3) neutral milk hotel - in the aeroplane over the sea [gatefold reissue] 2) beatles - sgt pepper [giles rmx] 1) radiohead - in rainbows [standard reissue]
You've got yourself another subscriber! Just hearing your passion for the music you love is very infectious, I'm rebuilding my home cinema and the turntable is going next to my couch so I can access it more easily, I'm also creating more space for vinyl. Your recommendations remind me that there's so much incredible music out there I've never heard. I hope you do more of these videos where you tell us about your great finds. Thanks!
Everything you talked about except the 13th floor & The Zombies I love. Now I’m on a mission to dig into those two bands..! Thanks bro keep 🤘🏾 Glad I found your channel I’ve subscribed !! 🙏🏽🌎✌🏽

Great video. To me the best albums are always the ones that you have strong memories with. The 10 albums most important for me were 1. Because the Internet - Childish Gambino 2. My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy - Kanye West 3. Led Zeppelin 3 - Led Zeppelin 4. Sgt Peppers - The Beatles 5. What’s Going On - Marvin Gaye 6. Dark Side of the Moon - Pink Floyd 7. The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill - Lauryn Hill 8. Man on the Moon - Kid Cudi 9. Aquemini - OutKast 10. Melodrama - Lorde
For Rockfans out there: Led zepellin: LZ 2-4, physical Grafitti, houses of the holy, presence (for people listening for the guitar), in through the out door (for people who prefer softer stuff) The Rolling Stones: every album between 68 and 78 (minus black and blue perhaps) also maybe December’s children (and everybody’s) and for people who prefer the old stuff, both selftitled albums too Hendrix: all of the experience albums, also band of gypsies and Blues. Clapton: Layla and other assorted love songs, slowhand, unplugged, also maybe the cream stuff. Aerosmith: selftitled and get a grip The Beatles: white album, abbey road, let it be, seargent peppers lonely hearts club band, revolver, rubber soul Lynyrd skynyrd: Pronounced, second helping, gimme back my bullets, nuthin fancy, street survivors Santana: abraxas, selftitled Grateful Dead (where I’m from hard to find, but love em): American beauty, workingmans dead, Grateful Dead, love dead, Europe 72 (interestingly enough a triple lp) aoxomoxoa Dire straits: selftitled, brothers in arms, making movies Stevie ray Vaughan: couldn’t stand the weather, Texas flood, also his live albums I heard were great Gary Moore: after the war, still got the Blues, back on the streets Also: genesis: selling England by the pound, Van Halen: 1984 can’t find the motivation, to add more, but if someone even sees this comment just ask and I’ll expand the list or add songs yourself
Totally agree on your advices.My first record was crime of the century ( lost unfortunately), then the 2nd wish you were here which i bought more than 40 years ago and still conserve. Congratulations for your excellent recommendations. Regards from Malaga. Spain.
Thank you, I am just into great music and what hits me. I'm impacted by anything and everything that show the lengths and power of what a great song or structural arrangement can do. I'm so in awe of the 60's and 70's renaissance that took place; Joni Mitchell, Paul Simon, Dylan, Beach Boys, The Velvet Underground....on and on and on. It's a rabbit hole that I am more than happy to fall into, and so whatever music that stops me and makes me go...Woah that's all I need to make me dive deeper! Thanks for these vids, they really do continue to expand my knowledge of how much is really out there!
First 3 vinyl I purchased that started my collection; Jimi Hendrix - Are You Experienced, Led Zeppelin IV and Iron Butterfly - In A Gadda Da Vida. All still in high rotation many years later.
I’m a year away from being 70 years old, and I started buying records in the early 60s, so zeroing in on my favorite vinyl albums is a bit of a challenge! I thought that I’d put together a mental accounting while listening, starting from the end of the alphabet, and hit on “Odyssey and Oracle” at exactly the same moment that you mentioned it! You didn’t hit my next one down the list - “Five Live Yardbirds” - but we agreed on a few others. Great list! 😁
Ten albums: The Cramps - Bad Music For Bad People Jon Spencer Blues Explosion - Plastic Fang R.E.M. - Monster Social Distortion - Live at the Roxy Tom Waits - Mule Variations Ween - Chocolate and Cheese Pixies - Doolittle Travelling Wilburys - Volume 1 Tragically Hip - Live at the Roxy Descendents - Everything Sucks
Even though I’m still new to the vinyl collecting world, I’ll give it a try. My dad has a pretty big vinyl collection from since he was young in the 70s. I’ll stick to one album per artist. -In the Court of the Crimson King (King Crimson) -The Song Remains the Same (Led Zeppelin) -Meddle (Pink Floyd) -The Phantom of the Paradise Soundtrack (Paul Williams and others) -After Hours (The Weeknd) -Nevermind (Nirvana) -Thick as a Brick (Jethro Tull) -A Trick of the Tail (Genesis) -The Doors (The Doors) -Goodbye Yellow Brick Road (Elton John) This is list is obviously subjective and it isn’t even my top 10 favorite albums (it would look extremely different). It’s just the albums that I find the most interesting owning on vinyl each one for different reasons. I’ll also add as an honorable mention Alfred Hitchcock Presents Music to be Murdered by (Jeff Alexander) that can set a great mood.
Hi Dillon from the UK!! Great Video as usual. My essentials would be as follows: The Jam (The best post punk/new wave/Mod band ever!!) - All Mod Cons, Setting Sons, Sound Affects John Mayall's Bluesbreakers feat. Eric Clapton - The Beano Album Paul Weller - Paul Weller (1st Solo) & Stanley Road The Housemartins - Hull 0 London 4 Billy Bragg - Talking With The Taxman About Poetry AC/DC - Back In Black Hue & Cry - Remote These are the records i grew up listening to well into my 20's and beyond....still sound great 30 - 40 years later
Totally amazing. Completely aligned with your recommendations. From Led Zeppelin III, The Doors LA Women, Pink Floyd Wish you were here, The Zombies and then Otis! Another that I'm torn between for myself is either Revolver or Abbey Road.
I like your approach and so the 10 I would recommend it to find out what you really like. Maybe even to mine some styles you weren't award of. Here is my list in no particular order: Beach Boys - Pet Sounds Rolling Stones - Exile on Main Street Joy Division - Unknown Pleasures or Closer (either one, if it speaks to you you will buy the other one anyway) Steve Reich - Music for 18 Musicians Ramones - Self titled from '76 My Bloody Valentine - Loveless The Clash - London Calling Fleetwood Mac - Rumours Public Enemy - It Takes A Nation... OK Computer - Radiohead This list assumes the person has heard the Beatles. If not, the Red & Blue sets are a good primer. Great video, sir.
Love Your Channel...Only have a small collection of some 5.000 Albums, However i have always gone across genres to experience different things.. Prog Rock and Psych music are my main vibe...But my last purchase was London Grammars Truth is a Beautiful Thing Album.. man, her voice is Something Else and will really push any system...Give it a Listen.....You and Your Kin Stay Safe...Long May You Run.
Good list! If you want some jazz that is easy to listen to I suggest just about any Dave Brubeck Quartet. This music changed my life. Recommended albums are Time Out, Time Further Out, Countdown - Time in Outer Space. For some earlier more traditional stuff there is Live at Carnegie Hall.
The 1st record that changed my life was 2112 by Rush. I was 12. I am a lifelong drummer but I am not necessarily a huge Neil Peart fan. I was into this album for the music only. That was the beginning for me. The second album was Tony Williams Lifetime “the Collection”. This was the first album that I ever heard musicians just go for it. I had never heard better musicians playing more freely on a studio recorded album.
Great vid AGAIN. I share your passion and have a similar story of bands discovery, so to speak. I kinda started to get bored w radio too. All it took was to hear one song from a band like The Replacements or The Clash or Patti Smith or The Ramones. I'd ask myself why they weren't getting proper airplay. I'm not gonna hate on some bands here. I'm just saying there was so much middle of the road stuff that got attention that didn't deserve it. And the music that deserved more attention? I found it. Iggy, early Soul Asylum, Hüsker Dü, and then the deep dive continued....These artists were starting points. When I found out who Skip Spence was! Sonic Youth, Lee Perry, Booker T & the MGs...reading liner notes & that discovery.... it's endless. Thanks again
1. Jimi Hendrix Experience 2. Pink Floyd DSOTM 3. Ten Years After Rock & Roll to the World 4. Carlos Santana - 1st LP 5. Miles Davis - Kinda Blue (no brainer) 6. Dave Brubeck- Take Five 7. 13th Floor Elevators self titled 8. Temptations- 1st album 9. Black Sabbath - Paranoid 10. Led Zepplin 3 11. Funkadelic 1st LP 12. James Taylor - Sweet Baby James
The box set music of the spheres/The 13th Floor Elevators, are what got me back into vinyl collecting. Doing it right this time!! I love the box set, but would like a 1st press of Easter Everywhere!
Love watching your videos & really appreciate how you share your extensive knowledge. I can just tell you are a good person & would love to see your record store.
Isn't it great to listen to someone who is so passionate about their hobby. Your enthusiasm Sir is infectious
When I was in college in 1968, Electric Lady Land came out. I listened to it every day. I got to see him in concert later that year.
As a Brit, I've gotten into one of the coolest American bands, Little Feat. They were the first band my dad ever saw live when they played in the UK. My dad had all their albums on vinyl other than Sailin shoes 1972. He did remember buying it but had to return it due to a fault. So I bought a brilliant pressing of the album for Xmas. All those Little Feat albums will forever be an important part in my collection.
They are amazing!
The Last Record Album has been one of my favourite albums since l bought it 1975.
Yes Richie and Keith , Last Record Album one of the best albums ever . I bought it when first released and still plays perfectly
Funnily enough, Last recorded album was the very first Little Feat album I listened too. That got me going alright
@@robmimi6796 l think it was the first of their's l bought as well. It was bit of a grower, which the best albums sometimes are, Romance Dance, Someone's Leavin' Tonight and Mercenary Territory, superb!
King Crimson---In The Court of the Crimson King
The Stooges-Funhouse
Alice Cooper-Killer
Ultimate Spinach-S/T
Led Zeppelin-Led Zeppelin
Pink Floyd-Meddle

“The most important thing is that you like what you own!”
Words of Wisdom, Dillon. ✌️😎💕
Thanks so much
I sold my whole album collection at one point in the 1970s to raise money. Years later I had to rebuy everything, plus more, as I had a better job. Worth it.
I know the feeling.

Carole King’s Tapestry

I've just started collecting for myself (I got a bunch of old records from my parents) but the first one I bought for myself, that was absolutely necessary for me to own, was King Crimson, In The Court Of The Crimson King
Great album, I'm thinking of starting off with LTIA which is my fave by them along with Red and Thrak, those three share the #1 spot.
@@starless1759 Red is absolutely fantastic, I must agree. But for me Epitaph and in the court of the crimson king were always my favourite songs by them, so I just had to own that album
My personal must haves:
Nirvana: Nevermind
Radiohead: Ok Computer
Pink Floyd: Wish You Were Here
Red Hot Chili Peppers: Californication
Led Zeppelin: Led Zeppelin IV
Paolo Nutini: Caustic Love
Marillion: Misplaced Childhood
Foo Fighters: Foo Fighters
Arctic Monkeys: Whatever People...
The Beatles: Abbey Road
yes!!!!
I’m very very familiar with most of your list (and extensively those artists). what blew me away recently, and after about a month of solid listening made my top 10 was the album ‘hotel California’
If you like the album, the Analogue Productions LA Woman absolutely blows any other version out of the water
Oh I bet. I’ll check it out
Just got mine yesterday.
Pretty happy with my original white label Elektra
Analogue Productions have blown me away..insanely good quality records (hence the price!)
So ok, I’m still very young. I have such a long road to discover music but I’ve been collecting and listening to new stuff for some years now so this is my list though it’s so difficult to decide and I’m sure that I’m gonna leave so many good albums out of it❤️
Top 15 you should own
1. A Night at the opera - Queen (I mean all of them but ok)
2.Led Zeppelin II - Led Zeppelin (Again all of them in my opinion)
3. Wish you were here - Pink Floyd (+DSOTM, Wall)
4. Abbey Road - The Beatles (For sure more)
5. Hunky dory - David Bowie
6. Paranoid - Black Sabbath
7. The chronicle - CCR
8. Are you experienced - Jimi Hendrix
9. Rumors - Fleetwood Mac
10. Greatest Hits - The Doors
11. Deep Purple in Rock - Deep Purple
12. Ritchie Blackmore’s Rainbow - Rainbow
13. Anthology - Janis Joplin
14. Nevermind - Nirvana (+MTV unplugged in New York one)
15. Slippery when wet - Bon Jovi
Ik all of these are really basic but those are some of the best for me at least
I only included rock stuff🤟
I have some other killer picks for different genres
Could've left out Bon Jovi 😊
Love the stories. For me that’s what collecting is about. I like that you are about having fun collecting and it’s not always about having an expensive record. I collect all genres. I love it when I show my collection to family and friends. I bet you don’t have... love it.
Haha well... I have been known to love an expensive record or two 🤣🤘
That Led Zeppelin record has such cool artwork, makes me like the album and invest myself in the album more
Top 10 Definitive LPS everyone should own
1. The Velvet Underground & Nico
2. The Kinks “Village Green Preservation Society “
3. Miles Davis “Kind Of Blue”
4. The Beatles “Rubber Soul”
5. David Bowie “Ziggy Stardust”
6. The Stooges “Raw Power”
7. The Rolling Stones “Exile On Main Street.
8. Otis Redding “Otis Blue”
9. Sam Cooke “Night Beat”
10. Neil Young “Zuma” Those are mine off the top of my head and it’s more for a starter kit and more accessible obviously yet still what I think is pretty essential
Almost perfect except After the Gold Rush is the correct Young album
Sometimes you inherit your parents record collection, which can influence your collection.
Interesting list, for sure. I prefer "Revolver"...but "Rubber Soul" was first. "Exile" is on my list as well. By FAR their best. I understand VU/Nico. I have the album. I keep trying to enjoy it. I just think it's over-rated. I have "Otis Blue" there as well. "Kind of Blue" goes without saying. Classic Miles before he got into the crazy "acid blues" BS. Listen to "Live at the Plug Nickle" if you never want to hear him again. ANY Sam Cooke makes this list. Not a fan of Young but appreciate him with CS&N. Stooges? Meh. Bowie did better albums than "Ziggy", IMO. I prefer "Diamond Dogs" or even "Let's Dance" (I know...blasphemy). LOVE the Kinks but top 10 is a reach. Nice list. Appreciate your taste.
You've inspired me. I'll give mine but in no particular order. These are just my favorite 10 albums:
-The Beatles "Revolver"
- Otis Redding "Otis Blue"
- Miles Davis "Kind of Blue"
- Sam Cooke. Pick any one you want. "Night Beat" is his quintessential masterpiece.
- The Rolling Stones "Exile on Main Street".
- Jimi Hendrix "Electric Ladyland"
- Dr. Dre "The Chronic"
- Led Zepplin "Physical Graffiti".
- Pear Jam "Ten".
- Johnny Cash "Live at Folsom Prison"
@@scottbaron121 if I’m choosing by favorites I’d actually go with “Low” for David Bowie but Ziggy is by far the best entry level album…
Top notch! Elton John - Don't Shoot Me I'm Only The Piano Player, Bruce Springsteen - The River, Ramones - Rocket To Russia, Depeche Mode - Violator, New Order - Substance, The Clash - London Calling, Dwight Yoakam - Guitars, Cadillacs, Etc., Steve Earle - Guitar Town, Sex Pistols - Never Mind The Bollocks, The Cure - Kiss Me, Kiss Me, Kiss Me. This list changes, so hard to pick 10!
🤘
I agree ,very hard list to make
It's always interesting to compare your own favourite/important albums with somebody else and I think that you've made some great choices. The only one from your list that would make mine is: Pink Floyd - Wish You Were Here.
My other 9 would be:
UFO - Lights Out
Blue Oyster Cult - Secret Treaties
Electric Light Orchestra - A New World Record
Alice In Chains - Dirt
Horslips - Aliens
Rory Gallagher - Calling Card
Jethro Tull - Stand Up
Television - Marquee Moon
The Stranglers - Rattus Norvegicus
Horslips. Interesting and good....i think Horslips the Tain is really a treat...they had some great albums. Aliens is one of those great albums
Tull....got to be Thick As A Brick .:pure genius
Rory Gallagher...great choice....Live in Europe.album..hard to believe the talent ....pure magic
I'd pick both the Pink Floyd and the Tull!
@@jameshoey303 The Book Of Invasions is another masterpiece that always gets overlooked.
I’m a metal head from liverpool, grew up listening to my dads records. Led zep are still my fave band because of my childhood, love your passion.
Ten that just speak to my soul. In no particular order. Gong :You. The Orb: The Peel Sessions. Horslips: The Tain. Underworld: Dubnobasswithmyheadman. Smashing Pumpkins: Siamese Dream. Led Zeppelin: Physical Graffiti. Hawkwind: In Search Of Space. John Martyn :Solid Air. Agitation Free :Second. King Buffalo :Longing To Be The Mountain.
Great stuff! Thanks for watching!
Wish you were here: Totally agree with you. Their masterpiece. Great, great choices.
Wish you were here is also my favorite Pink Floyd album
I'd go with Meddle tbh.
@@Hoopla10 That's a great one, too. So is Dark Side, The Wall and parts of Animals ... and ... ;-)
My dad bought it when it a came out and I still have the copy
@@frankschneller2627 only parts?
Was not expecting that Death Cab pick haha. Glad you added it! I know a lot of people who would be “too cool” to include that
Led Zeppelin 3 is AWESOME...Bron-Y-Aur Stomp is one of my favorite Zeppelin Deep cuts!
My favorites are the ones that bring back great memories. I'm always open though to new releases (or ones that I missed earlier) to form new good memories. Muddy should be in everyone's favorite list.
Agreed
The album that played the biggest impact on me as a child was Jeff Wayne's - War Of The Worlds. And more recently aprox. 92" I discovered an album in a second hand store called Olias of Sunhillow by Jon Anderson. I bought it because of the cover art and it's awesome.
In my expert opinion, here are 10 albums you should own:
1. Rumours by Fleetwood Mac
2. Who’s Next by The Who
3. Abbey Road by the Beatles
4. MCMXC by Enigma
5. Night Song by Michael
Brook and Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan
6. Trinity Sessions by The Cowboy Junkies

18. Breakfast in America by Supertramp
19. The Yes Album by Yes
20. Venus on Earth by Dengue Fever
🤣🤘
HA RUMOURS that’s a troll pick
@@jbojoify You can call me a troll for my goofy “expert” comments but i you were alive in 1976, that album dominated the airwaves and everyone owned the album. It still sounds fresh today.
Hmm...a top twenty without Pink Floyd.... I suppose it’s subjective but I’m suspicious of people that don’t acknowledge their obvious greatness, suggests prejudice or impatience.
Interesting story, several years back I bought a used, trashy Mackie 2408 mixer from a guy in Groton, CT who said he was selling off his dad's band touring equipment because his dad was really sick - too sick to meet me - and that they needed the money. He said his dad used to play in a band that toured all over the world and opened for The Rolling Stones, among other luminous bands. But he would not tell me who his dad was or the name of his band.
Then I read in J. Geils' obit that he lived in Groton, dying after a prolonged illness.
I own the touring mixing board of The J. Geils Band.
My all time favorite albums:
Peter Frampton - Frampton Comes Alive! (Holds a place in my teenage years)
Led Zeppelin IV
Pink Floyd - Dark Side of the Moon
Moody Blues - Days of Future Past
Jeff Buckley - Grace
Opeth - Ghost Reveries
Fleetwood Mac - Rumours
AC/DC - Back in Black
Patti Smith - Horses
I am born and live in New Zealand on the other Side of world in the South Pacific and I'm totally into the same vynil and bands as you bro. Fantastic taste and there are guys all over the world who love this, i mean love this beautiful music brother.
I have three of the 10 of original vynil handed down from my older brothers.
Cant be any list of most important rock LPs without Paranoid.This LP changed everything in rock
Not an album I listen to these days, but you are absolutely right. War Pigs is the best anti-war rock song I can think of. (I had to qualify my statement under "rock" because Pete Seeger's folk song Where Have All The Flowers gone is maybe the best anti-war song ever, period.)
Paranoid is a seminal record, no doubt.
@@chriseidam7319 thanks that you pointed out a song i dont know
I like folk music so i will listen to it🙂
Perfectly well said Dillon. I recall stories from big time collectors finding tons of albums that were thrown into the trash bins. This goes back from the 70's into the late 80's. I can never understand vendors who price Elvis , Stones, Beatles, into the hundreds of dollars for the common pressings? However that's a weird one. I 'll give it to you for 4 bucks, are my kind of vendors to deal with?
Hahah yep
13th Floor Elevators are just about my favorite 1960's group. Psychedelic Sounds is great, but Easter Everywhere, along with Stranded, by the Saints, and Grotesque, by The Fall, is one of my three favorite albums of all time. Fans & critics rave about Sgt. Pepper or Pet Sounds, but Easter Everywhere was the best R&R album of the 1960's. I don't have it on vinyl , only on CD (the other two I do have on vinyl, bought them when they first came out, but the Elevators were slightly before my time). A big vinyl store here in NYC on Thompson Street used to have a beautiful, original Psychedelic Sounds of the 13th Floor Elevators album in a special spot of honor on the wall and I asked them what it went for. The guy said, "What are you willing to pay?" and I said, "Forget it. If you ask me that, it's more than I could afford", LOL. I'll have to stick with the CD.
Floyd - WYWH
801 - Live
Cat Stevens - Tea for the Tillerman
Sabbath - Vol.4
Jethro Tull - Thick as a Brick
Stones - Black & Blue
Miles - In a Silent Way
Hendrix - Electric Ladyland

Yes - Close To The Edge (best LP EVER)
ACDC - Highway to Hell
The Cult - Sonic Temple
AIC - Facelift
YES - Tales From Topographic Oceans
Bad Company - Run With The Pack
Led Zeppelin - IV
YES - Fragile
I have most of those, though not all the early presses, and was surprised to see Death Cab. I saw them a lot around 99-02 because they would come to San Francisco a lot before they exploded. Two records that will always be at the top of my list are The Catherine Wheel's 'Chrome' and Swervedriver's 'Mezcal Head'... amazing 90s British alternative that influenced a lot of later artists. I think Ben Gibbard from DCFC even said that his band probably wouldn't exist if it weren't for Chrome, although they sound different.
My top ten:
What's Going on - Marvin Gaye.
Electric Ladyland - Jimi Hendrix.
The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill - Lauryn Hill.
Silk Degrees - Boz Scaggs.
Kind of Blue - Miles Davis.
Grace - Jeff Buckley.
Sign O' the Times - Prince.
Check Your Head - Beastie Boys.
Higher! - Sly and the Family Stone.
Tapestry - Carole King.
Great advice...its such an expensive obsession (hobby) you have to love what you buy. Streaming has helped tremendously to test out music before pulling the trigger.
I really like how personal all these records are for you. Your stories are fantastic and make this Top 10 list come to life. I especially enjoyed the dumpster-diving story! I remember coming across some GREAT records (and CDs) that were in the dollar bin and I’d buy them unheard, just figuring “what the heck”. Amazingly, these are some of my favorite discoveries! Here are two: BLOC - In the Free Zone, and Rebel Train - Seeking Shelter.
Great video. There’s nothing more beautiful than people describing stories of listening to albums for a first time. Thank you for making
Love the advice: buy what you love. Too many get caught up in what they think they are "supposed" to have.
Great stories and killer albums!
i love how down to earth you are. It's the personal stories about our attachment to music that mean the most and I don/t think we talk about them enough. Really appreciated this
Thanks so much!
WOW! I didn't expect you to be a Death Cab for Cutie fan. That record and "Plans" are amazing! Love your personal stories that you share, Dillon!!!
Thanks man!
Hi Terri!
For Me:
Yes - Close To The Edge.
Genesis- Foxtrot.
Beach Boys - Pet Sounds.
Beatles- St Peppers.
Led Zeppelin - Led Zeppelin IV.
King Crimson - In The Court Of The Crimson King.
Fleetwood Mac - Rumours.
Pink Floyd - Wish You Were Here.
America - America.
Within Temptation- The Unforgiving.
Many others sadly, but these albums have been part of my life for decades and still do their magic.
excellent list!
Zep III is my fav Zeppelin album too!
Cheers from Argentina, pal
My record collection transitioned into the awesome No-filler collection that it has become after taking your advice to heart.
Thanks Dillon !
I completely agree but what you love not what you think you should love. I recently decided to really get in to collecting after starting to collect years ago. The one I really wanted to find was Billy Joel “An Innocent Man” because of memories of my childhood, my parents had that record and they recorded it on to a cassette tape and we would listen to it on long car rides and I just always remember the cover so vividly. Plus it has amazing songs on it. Anyway I couldn’t find it unless I wanted to pay a stupid price online until I walked into your shop one day after Christmas and you had it so thanks for that. Collecting vinyl has been so great because it has brought be closer to my step daughters and it’s something my little girl loves doing know is listening to records with mommy and daddy and her sisters. Plus my wife has really gotten into and it’s something she lets me spend money on too! Great video and of course love the store!
Thanks for watching!
Very wise and good video. For a long time I was against getting any represses because I thought good collectors only had originals. Eventually I had a similar revelation as you, I just wanted to buy records that I actually want to listen to! Some originals I'll never find so a listenable repress will do:)
Hey Dillon, I enjoy your channel, your top ten albums are some solid choices! It is wonderful to see the resurgence of vinyl and you being a great advocate. I am a 60 year old guy and enjoyed a lot of the heavy / prog rock classics back in the day, still do, and awesome to see your love for some of these. Here would be my top 10 list of record albums...
Kate Bush - Hounds of Love
Mazzy Star - So Tonight I Might See
The Beatles - Abby Road
Concrete Blonde - Bloodletting
Beck - Morning Phase
Pink Floyd - Wish you Were Here
Portishead - Dummy
Nirvana - MTV Unplugged in New York
Collective Soul - Collective Soul
Heart - Dreamboat Annie
I bought the single of Otis' Dock of the Bay right after I heard it on the radio. Electric Ladyland is an album I have enjoyed since it first came out, but I had never listened to it through headphones until a couple months ago - I was blown away. It is always wonderful to hear the enthusiasm people have for the music they love. I'm 71 now, but I have a lot of friends in their twenties and thirties. It is always special when they discover the music that I grew up with. I often wonder how different is is for them discovering that music long after it came out than it is for me hearing it fresh on the radio.
I'm 74 and saw band's like the WHO, Pretty Thing's, Small Face's, Pink Floyd, Ike & Tina Turner, Sonny Boy Williamson, at Dance's with around 200 other's. Normally around the time their FIRST single was a hit. LOL {Oh, I'm English}
i'm a teenager and i just recently started collecting records. i've always loved music... as long as i can remember. my favorite album of all time - whole lotta red was available at my local walmart and i just had to get it. that's what really got me into record collecting as a whole. another album that i would really love to have on vinyl is six pack by black flag. i really enjoy that album and it would stand out in my collection. once i rlly got into collecting i sought after abbey road by the beatles. i recently found it and got an amazing deal on it. if you're apart of the record collecting community i want to say thank you. as a younger teen who is niave and doesn't much about record collecting i've felt very welcomed by everyone i've spoken to online or in record shops. so thank you again. also thank you dillon for giving me awesome tips as well as helping me learn more about records.
Nice video. Our tastes are so similar. LZ 3 is my fave they did, Wish You Were Here is my fave PF and LA Woman is the first Doors album hunted down. You the man.
Thanks man! Come visit again soon!
I,'ve always believed that music was photos from our past. My favorite songs/albums bring back memories of good times. As I listen to you your music I am connected to a time or memory from your earlier years. I am 67 now and when I listen to music with my sister we just start with "do you remember"... Music is a gateway to one's emotions and memories. There are songs that bring back memories of my past girl friends. I might have forgotten a few things due to age but music never lets me forget my good times as a teenager, continue listening you have many memories to grab onto. 40 years ago I traded Black Oak Arkansas for Cactus and my friend always brings it up. We both remember an obscure transaction through music. Hold onto your memories, you got the better of trading your green pants for Zeppelin III. Thanks for adding to my memories, I was playing music hangman and was stumped by 13 Floor Elevator, thanks for the memory and another awesome post. Bless you and those you love.
All of his stories for nostalgic albums begin with “ one year we were at the the beach”
🤣 truth
Better then "One day at band camp..."
In North Carolina, the beach is where miracles happen. And there's a lot of beaches in NC.
this is a clip that anyone with a home stereo and a chair and physical media should watch. Assemble the best sounding stereo you can easily afford and listen to what makes you happy. Sure, I have a listening room, but I still like to listen to Run DMC - Raising Hell on cassette with my orange Cody headphones.
great vid. thanks for sharing.
Just getting into collecting Vinyl after 20+ years of wanting to and enjoying listening to it with my uncle for years. My first record was what I feel is the most important for me to own. Black Sabbath Master of Reality! Nothing special to most I'm sure.... When I first heard it when I was a youngster it changed everything for me... Massive Metalhead for so so long now and I always go back to the original Doom/Stoner Metal record. Bout half way through thier discography now. Working on Opeth, Tool and Deftones as well. Cheers man absolutely love your channel!!
My top 10 albums would be totally different than yours, but I thoroughly enjoy the stories concerning yours. Made me smile. Keep up the great work!
This is such a thought provoking idea! Brilliant suggestion!
10 albums that shaped me .

These are off the top of head, but an interesting journey. I agree with you, with reference to 'Wish You Were Here' it has a more majestic feel & is possibly better than'Dark Side of the Moon' but Dark is the ground breaking composition that really opened more eyes to PF's amazing talent. Great post 👍
great call on Jean Michel Jarre!! love oxygene! (DP, ELO and obviously DSOTM great picks too!
Wish You Were Here is a better record. Both amazing, but WYWH is a tad better
Thanks for recommending that Death Cab For Cutie album, they're a band that have always passed me but i listened to that album today and its amazing! Cheers
Zeppelin 3 doesnt get enough love. zeppelin 1 gets love cause its the amazing breakout album, zeppelin 2 gets love because the guitar tones are legendary, zeppelin 4 gets love because stairway.... but god damnit, zeppelin 3 has since ive been loving you.
Ya man Zeppelin 1 has to be my favorite, then TSRTS, then Houses of the Holy.
Houses of the Holy is there best album. Who knew?
Physical Graffiti is my favorite, if I absolutely had to pick one Zeppelin album.
I don't have a huge vinyl collection, as I'm not a collector, I only have about 100. However most were bought on release and as I'm old so are they :)
Electric Warrior - T Rex
Ziggy Stardust - David Bowie
Sheer Heart Attack - Queen
Led Zeppelin IV - Led Zeppelin
Give 'Em Enough Rope - The Clash
This Is The Modern World - The Jam
Outlandos d'Amour - The Police
Bat Out Of Hell - Meat Loaf
Back To The Bars - Todd Rundgren
The Dreaming - Kate Bush
And one I was given by an old hippy - the original three disc Woodstock album.
Not claiming they are important - they are only important to me.
You really hit the nail on the head right away by sharing your ASSOCIATIONS with certain records. It's the same for me and I suppose any/every listener.
And since everyone is doing it:
New Order: Movement
Dead Kennedys: Plastic Surgery Disasters
Unwound: Fake Train
The Cure: Seventeen Seconds
Drive Like Jehu: Drive Like Jehu
R.E.M: Green
Sleep: Holy Mountain
Shellac: At Action Park
Pink Floyd: More
Poster Children: Daisy Chain Reaction
Honorable Mention: any Sonic Youth vinyl
I really appreciate your sharing your taste. Up til I started buying vinyl (a month ago) my music taste was limited and tightly focused. Now I'm branching out to a lot of things I would never have listened to and a great deal of those suggestions have come from you. Thank you so much.
Awesome! Thanks for watching!
When I saw this, my first thought went to “iconic” albums, those that would directly or indirectly change everything that followed.
Frank Sinatra’s “In The Wee Small Hours” is the first album to have a narrative “theme” instead of being just a collection of random songs.
Meet The Beatles - nowhere near their best album or even a great collection of songs The Beatles had already released in the UK, but it opened the floodgates of the British Invasion and music changed because of it.
The Beach Boys’ “Pet Sounds” introduced the endless possibilities of the recording studio, almost inventing sounds previously unimaginable
That's what I'm doing, trying to get albums that have had an impact in my life. In January I bought Attaque 77's "El Cielo Puede esperar", My favorite album since middle school. I had a bootleg copy of that album, never owned an original copy until now and it's amazing.
Around 1979, I was browsing in a shopping mall record store. On the floor, next to the cash register counter were about eight open and sealed boxes. I asked the sales clerk about the boxes.
He said they were boxes of the first four albums by The 13th Floor Elevators for sale. He said they were probably first print albums that they found in the back storage room or in the record storage warehouse. The sales clerk was not clear about where they were found.
The albums were for sale for $20 each. The regular price of records then was $8.00. I bought the four albums. They were made of heavy, thick vinyl. This had to be my best purchase of music ever.
I really love the way you tell your stories and your enthusiasm is just pure and honest. keep up the great work!
Thanks so much 🙏
It's kind of funny hearing you start out with Led Zeppelin III. That one is one of my top tier, had to get first LP's as I started back into collecting again, vinyl anyhow, about a year and a half ago. I actually have almost all of my original Led Zeppelin LPs up through Physical Graffiti anyway, But my Zep 3 needed replacing in Is I started back and the remasters were of course out. That one takes me back to when I was about 16 somewhere around 1983 or 1984 when I had my dad's Roberts RX7 reel to reel 8-track recorded copy he made off of his Led Zeppelin III in the early '70s. I drove around in my mom's Grand Marquis sneaking out at night and it only had an 8 player in it. And the only 8 track I could find around the house at the time was Zeppelin 3. And I fell in love with that tape. It brings back some great memories every time I listen to it. It reminds me of all the fun, and trouble I wound up getting in After me and the car were discovered gone one night, from back in those years. A definite classic masterpiece!
Dude !!!
Behind you , UFO Flying ! Fantastic album. Cool to see it on your shelf.
Personally I think my finds are more serendipitous. Without anything in mind, looking and taking a chance on something that looks cool. One of the most stand out finds was Bongwater, Double Bummer.
27 dislikes? Dislikes for a man for saying make up your own mind about what you like? Really?
Hahahah
Trolls
Thinking's hard

You've got yourself another subscriber! Just hearing your passion for the music you love is very infectious, I'm rebuilding my home cinema and the turntable is going next to my couch so I can access it more easily, I'm also creating more space for vinyl. Your recommendations remind me that there's so much incredible music out there I've never heard. I hope you do more of these videos where you tell us about your great finds. Thanks!

I always looked at it this way buying records is for the love of music, and the music you love is the music you buy
Agreed!

For Rockfans out there:

The Rolling Stones:
every album between 68 and 78 (minus black and blue perhaps) also maybe December’s children (and everybody’s) and for people who prefer the old stuff, both selftitled albums too
Hendrix: all of the experience albums, also band of gypsies and Blues.
Clapton: Layla and other assorted love songs, slowhand, unplugged, also maybe the cream stuff.
Aerosmith: selftitled and get a grip
The Beatles: white album, abbey road, let it be, seargent peppers lonely hearts club band, revolver, rubber soul
Lynyrd skynyrd:

Stevie ray Vaughan: couldn’t stand the weather, Texas flood, also his live albums I heard were great
Gary Moore: after the war, still got the Blues, back on the streets
Also: genesis: selling England by the pound, Van Halen: 1984
can’t find the motivation, to add more, but if someone even sees this comment just ask and I’ll expand the list or add songs yourself
Totally agree on your advices.My first record was crime of the century ( lost unfortunately), then the 2nd wish you were here which i bought more than 40 years ago and still conserve. Congratulations for your excellent recommendations. Regards from Malaga. Spain.
Thanks for watching!
Thank you, I am just into great music and what hits me. I'm impacted by anything and everything that show the lengths and power of what a great song or structural arrangement can do. I'm so in awe of the 60's and 70's renaissance that took place; Joni Mitchell, Paul Simon, Dylan, Beach Boys, The Velvet Underground....on and on and on. It's a rabbit hole that I am more than happy to fall into, and so whatever music that stops me and makes me go...Woah that's all I need to make me dive deeper! Thanks for these vids, they really do continue to expand my knowledge of how much is really out there!
First 3 vinyl I purchased that started my collection; Jimi Hendrix - Are You Experienced, Led Zeppelin IV and Iron Butterfly - In A Gadda Da Vida. All still in high rotation many years later.
I’m a year away from being 70 years old, and I started buying records in the early 60s, so zeroing in on my favorite vinyl albums is a bit of a challenge! I thought that I’d put together a mental accounting while listening, starting from the end of the alphabet, and hit on “Odyssey and Oracle” at exactly the same moment that you mentioned it! You didn’t hit my next one down the list - “Five Live Yardbirds” - but we agreed on a few others. Great list! 😁
Gentle Giant "In a Glass House" was the holy grail import album to find in the 70's & 80's, with me and my friends.
Ten albums:
The Cramps - Bad Music For Bad People
Jon Spencer Blues Explosion - Plastic Fang
R.E.M. - Monster
Social Distortion - Live at the Roxy
Tom Waits - Mule Variations
Ween - Chocolate and Cheese
Pixies - Doolittle
Travelling Wilburys - Volume 1
Tragically Hip - Live at the Roxy
Descendents - Everything Sucks
I wholeheartedly agree that it is better to own what you really love. Not just own prestige stuff to be cool. Great video, thanks.
Even though I’m still new to the vinyl collecting world, I’ll give it a try. My dad has a pretty big vinyl collection from since he was young in the 70s. I’ll stick to one album per artist.
-In the Court of the Crimson King (King Crimson)
-The Song Remains the Same (Led Zeppelin)
-Meddle (Pink Floyd)
-The Phantom of the Paradise Soundtrack (Paul Williams and others)
-After Hours (The Weeknd)
-Nevermind (Nirvana)
-Thick as a Brick (Jethro Tull)
-A Trick of the Tail (Genesis)
-The Doors (The Doors)
-Goodbye Yellow Brick Road (Elton John)
This is list is obviously subjective and it isn’t even my top 10 favorite albums (it would look extremely different). It’s just the albums that I find the most interesting owning on vinyl each one for different reasons.
I’ll also add as an honorable mention Alfred Hitchcock Presents Music to be Murdered by (Jeff Alexander) that can set a great mood.
Hi Dillon from the UK!! Great Video as usual. My essentials would be as follows:
The Jam (The best post punk/new wave/Mod band ever!!) - All Mod Cons, Setting Sons, Sound Affects
John Mayall's Bluesbreakers feat. Eric Clapton - The Beano Album
Paul Weller - Paul Weller (1st Solo) & Stanley Road
The Housemartins - Hull 0 London 4
Billy Bragg - Talking With The Taxman About Poetry
AC/DC - Back In Black
Hue & Cry - Remote
These are the records i grew up listening to well into my 20's and beyond....still sound great 30 - 40 years later
Totally amazing. Completely aligned with your recommendations. From Led Zeppelin III, The Doors LA Women, Pink Floyd Wish you were here, The Zombies and then Otis! Another that I'm torn between for myself is either Revolver or Abbey Road.
I like your approach and so the 10 I would recommend it to find out what you really like. Maybe even to mine some styles you weren't award of. Here is my list in no particular order:
Beach Boys - Pet Sounds
Rolling Stones - Exile on Main Street
Joy Division - Unknown Pleasures or Closer (either one, if it speaks to you you will buy the other one anyway)
Steve Reich - Music for 18 Musicians
Ramones - Self titled from '76
My Bloody Valentine - Loveless
The Clash - London Calling
Fleetwood Mac - Rumours
Public Enemy - It Takes A Nation...
OK Computer - Radiohead
This list assumes the person has heard the Beatles. If not, the Red & Blue sets are a good primer. Great video, sir.
Love Your Channel...Only have a small collection of some 5.000 Albums, However i have always gone across genres to experience different things.. Prog Rock and Psych music are my main vibe...But my last purchase was London Grammars Truth is a Beautiful Thing Album.. man, her voice is Something Else and will really push any system...Give it a Listen.....You and Your Kin Stay Safe...Long May You Run.
Good list! If you want some jazz that is easy to listen to I suggest just about any Dave Brubeck Quartet. This music changed my life. Recommended albums are Time Out, Time Further Out, Countdown - Time in Outer Space. For some earlier more traditional stuff there is Live at Carnegie Hall.
The 1st record that changed my life was 2112 by Rush. I was 12. I am a lifelong drummer but I am not necessarily a huge Neil Peart fan. I was into this album for the music only. That was the beginning for me. The second album was Tony Williams Lifetime “the Collection”. This was the first album that I ever heard musicians just go for it. I had never heard better musicians playing more freely on a studio recorded album.
Great vid AGAIN. I share your passion and have a similar story of bands discovery, so to speak. I kinda started to get bored w radio too. All it took was to hear one song from a band like The Replacements or The Clash or Patti Smith or The Ramones. I'd ask myself why they weren't getting proper airplay. I'm not gonna hate on some bands here. I'm just saying there was so much middle of the road stuff that got attention that didn't deserve it. And the music that deserved more attention? I found it. Iggy, early Soul Asylum, Hüsker Dü, and then the deep dive continued....These artists were starting points. When I found out who Skip Spence was! Sonic Youth, Lee Perry, Booker T & the MGs...reading liner notes & that discovery.... it's endless. Thanks again
1. Jimi Hendrix Experience
2. Pink Floyd DSOTM
3. Ten Years After Rock & Roll to the World
4. Carlos Santana - 1st LP
5. Miles Davis - Kinda Blue (no brainer)
6. Dave Brubeck- Take Five
7. 13th Floor Elevators self titled
8. Temptations- 1st album
9. Black Sabbath - Paranoid
10. Led Zepplin 3
11. Funkadelic 1st LP
12. James Taylor - Sweet Baby James
Excellent picks
The box set music of the spheres/The 13th Floor Elevators, are what got me back into vinyl collecting. Doing it right this time!! I love the box set, but would like a 1st press of Easter Everywhere!
Love watching your videos & really appreciate how you share your extensive knowledge.
I can just tell you are a good person & would love to see your record store.
