They got to put those satanic Illuminati symbols somewhere! 😂😂😂😂 Freemasons are so funny!
I’ve never heard the words eight tracks sent so many times until the last two minutes of this video
At 5:07…that is a cd-r, not a cd! LOL!
I still have my older brothers 8 track tapes no way of playing them but the memories of just looking at them are priceless.
Great first record! The first I got was the 78 Frehley album, and the day I got my first cd player, I got kiss – alive, cinderella – heartbreak station and Lynch mob – wicked sensation
Cash grabs are just that overpriced BS. Used records are risky and the market is shrinking. In the 70s records were over pressed and the quantity of vinyl suffered. Japanese and European vinyl was superior. Buying a record because of the color of vinyl is more likely a cash grab. If you take care of your vinyl it will stand the test of time. I have 50 year old vinyl that sounds great.
This is the new golden age for collectors .The reissues in Jazz , Blues and Rock has never been better. Audiophile pressing such as Analog Production are outstanding. It's all about the music
I'm unable to read that final post with the dang thumbnail covering it up. SMH!
I agree. The lacquer and vinyl are wasted if there is no music on Side 4. Fill up the side with unreleased tracks so buyers get their value for money. I don't buy LPs if I see side 4 has an etching.
The etching/hologram thing blows when it happens to a reissue that should be four sides. Soundgarden’s Badmotorfinger and GNR’s Appetite are the worst offenders. So instead of Paradise City ending a side as it should, it’s in the middle of side two. Messes up the flow and is just plain weird. All so I can look at a funny hologram once.
I’m a cheapskate and have a $1 limit for lps, and a .10 cent limit for 45s. I’ve amassed a TON of wonderful records and spent hardly anything doing so. It’s also called Patience. I spend a lot of time sitting on the floors of record stores diggin’ through thei “dollar boxes.” It’s how I enjoy the hobby and never worry about cost. Happy hunting!
Side D etching, thankfully haven't come across many but I'm not a fan! Had blink 182's self titled album and they just etched the logo on side D. Replaced it with another pressing that had an extra track and stretched the album out over all 4 sides.
Fortunately, you can still find a lot of good old used records on the market, which in most cases sounds better than new remastered records. In the last two years, I mostly bought old and analog mastered records.👍
Scott is the person who moans about the price of records yet every RSD buys overpriced reissues. Yes it's expensive but it's worth it. If you can't afford it, don't buy it.
Used to be records were around eight bucks, and they were better.They hardly needed cleaning. These 180 gram jobs attract dirt like crazy. Years ago exiles on main Street was 50 bucks. Meanwhile my early 80s copy of China Girl still sounds great. I did recently get a double album of Queens greatest for 25 bucks
there are many cheap $10..$15 new records, along with the promo ones, and the old ones for as low as $5… it’s called EP and “house music”
it’s those who buy popular stuff who pump the demand and thus the price, leaving many other things unheard and unwanted
I don't like the etchings it should be music if not lower the prices it pisses me off
RE : Side D etchings… ! yeah first time I saw this was the Thurston Moore album on Geffen Psychic Hearts – not a bad album kinda memorable – the art was sad , actually maybe did reflect the music wasn't just a symbol so fit in that package IMO – the first LP was green transluscent vinyl the 2nd album was the etching with Black vinyl – side C was a full side noise jam – . I would never buy an album for a chachkie though – prefer black vinyl as well or quietex.
nice to see the capitol canada beatles LP
People don't like etchings on a fourth side that has no recording,
and they're complaining about high prices. Hmmm.
What would they think of a solitary three or four minute aria on one side
and the other side a plain, smooth blank with no art or anything else, for $40.50?
That is what a $1.25 Victor record from 1910 would have cost in today's money.
Yeah. Look it up, do the inflation thing, and think about it for a few months before you rant on the subject again.
Oh yeah David Bowie let's dance correct 100% that's how you test your system keep on spinning 😛🤘
I've had Virginia mountain moonshine a shot or two and it put me out like a light oh yeah I didn't even remember that day before keep on spinning and I kept on spinning and spinning after that 😛🤘
About 40 minutes is still the optimum album length.
I buy one or two new ones per month on ‘zon or acoustic sounds and scope out classics used that I really want.
Man I hate the side 4 etching. Like the first time I saw it (The Aquabats "The Fury of the Aquabats") I thought it was clever, but then when The Pretty Reckless "Death By Rock and Roll" had one, it really started to bug me. Like, I feel like that record could've been on one disk. What am I supposed to do with that etching? Frame it and put it on the wall, then never listen to the last few tracks on the album again? Or Green Day's "Insomniac" 25th anniversary edition. Like, you put live versions of 8 of the 14 songs on side 3, why not just find versions of the other 6, or demos or something. The etching looks cool, but like, how often am I going to be looking at that? If that record is out of it's sleeve, it's probably on the turntable.
It’s the record labels (Sony Music, UMG and Warner Music Group) are the ones setting the prices for new product.
Love those old days where you would take your records to parties and put your initials on them, it was an item to be used rather than a collector's object you have to keep in pristine condition. Can't imagine there are many collectors today writing on the front cover with a black marker! About those etchings, they are annoying but I have an album where the band put a remix of one of the tracks as a bonus on side 4 and guess what, I never play it. So it doesn't really matter in the end. Live tracks would be cool though. And unlike CDs, where the bonus tracks ruin the flow of an album sometimes, on a separate side of vinyl I don't have to listen to them if I don't want to.
as someone who knows the current state of sales at record fair. the sale of dearer records is going down though cheap records stioill sell ok and cd sales are going up
You would think these Record companies would be rushing to build more record making places so they can rip us off even more??? THAT IS WHAT REALLY SHOCKS ME!!! 😀 + There is a Record coming out this week that is £54.99(Double clear LP) & I want it but do I do what they want & let them rip me off???(Yeah I know they are not forcing me to buy it) I don't know anymore(maybe I'll just buy 1 or 2 Records a year then) 🙁
I’m quitting the hobby, no sense in wasting my money on it anymore. Moving on to high end streaming, something I thought I would never do.
I preffer an etching on side 4 instead of spreading the album out over too much vinyl. – Bonus track are better though.
Hi Frank Vinyl prices in Australia are double the U.S prices sometimes more, unsustainable
Kpop has started to come out on vinyl so I don't think vinyls are going to drop in popularity in the near future. Kpop fans like to collect anything and everything so…yeah.
Quiet Riot was the first band I saw live (opening for Black Sabbath 1983) 😂
The only good thing about the etched side is if you're gonna get it autographed, that would be the side, do it…
I recently picked up a 1923 78 rpm shellac from 1923 with side 2 etched with zig zags and the word "Victor". It looks cool because the etch is much deeper than what we get on the relatively thin 33 rpm discs and I'm not playing it anyway.
I don’t have a problem with etchings on the 4th side. I Hate when a double album has three songs per side. If they can put all the songs on 3 sides they should do it. Having to flip an album after only 2 or 3 songs is ridiculous!
SRV's guitar playing on "Lets Dance" is awesome
I love side 4 etchings—one less flip and one less side to clean!!
My only pet peeve is that there is not enough Julie London on the channel! I understand she is not Hair Metal, but she's still Hair!
I would rather buy older used vinyl records, most are cheaper
