Welcome back, great response to the tag, so right about the live album with Thin Lizzy, it's so freaking good. Have a great one and cheers!

I'm bursting with envy for Garden Shed for £40, one of my favourite albums, I have a reissue but would love a 'proper' copy. And £6 for Badger that's amazing.

Great pick ups ,I've been looking for garden sheds for years never see it in the wild maybe I'll have to look online ..

Mortimer is an album I want to pick up. The rest are a good bunch of records.

It's odd how different places have easy and hard to find albums. When I lived in L.A. I used to see Hudson Brothers records all the time. Often in dollar bins. I think I have all of them. Possibly doubles of most. Now I live in Toronto, I don't think I've seen one in five years.

Wonderful variety on the list so far, which is how I tend to collect as well. And it’s a good reminder to me to check out a few of the ones you’ve talked about before. Do you know much about that unreleased second Mortimer record that was finally put out in recent years? I’m curious about both of them. Thanks for sharing.

I love seeing other people's list, as I almost always learn something. Yours had six bands that I was completely unfamiliar with and I've been collecting what's broadly called power pop since the seventies. My own tastes in the genre lean more towards the Power end of the spectrum and my own list would have The Beat (Paul Collin's 1979 debut lp), The Flamin' Groovies, Dwight Twilley Band and Badfinger in my Top Ten. Nice to see that fellow travelers Cheap Trick, Big Star and The Records made your list. Thanks for doing this, it was fun to discover new music.

Always great presentations. Roger Waters : Wanker!

One of the better vinyl tags, a bit more interesting.

Cool tag! I also struggled with some of the questions myself, I had to change and alter some of them so I wouldn’t be showing so many very recognisable albums😅 But I did pick AC/DC for the lyric questions. Not seen your channel before, Iv liked and subbed 👍

I think record label art and presentation is quite underrated. I’ve often thought of doing a collage using some of them. I don’t know if I’d want to be anyone else. The better question is whether there is someone you wish you could sing or play like? So many possibilities there. Of the countless acts I never saw live but could have or was considering, I regret The Who and Little Richard.

Glad you're back. Sweet was on great band. Never get tired of thier great songs.

Great video! I love that Priest album as well and used it in a thread response I did where I only used Metal albums, and that was my choice for Metal album I played the most. Sabbath! Thin Lizzy is a great choice. R. Waters, yep. We picked different people to be reincarnated as, but picked them for the same reason, the way they lived with reckless abandon! Great choice with Sweet. Kudos to having the strength to wait until 2025 to do this tag. I had no will power 😹 and did it fairly early on in December. Well done! Cheers

Aw, "Welcome Interstate Managers" -- the greatest pop album of the 21st Century so far. And one of the saddest. The melancholy tone of "Hackensack" (and "All Kinds of Time" and "Valley Winter Song" and "Fire Island" and...) breaks my heart. I fell in love with it on a plane from Los Angeles to Kauai (Hawaii) the day after Christmas, 2003, when I listened to it repeatedly on my iPod all the way across the Pacific Ocean. Sunny (in a hazy way) and wintry at the same time, it's one of my most treasured albums (and the only Fountains of Wayne issued on LP, I think).

Thanks for the juicy selections -- quite a few totally new to me, so I appreciate the tips! The first sounds that come to mind when I think of "Power Pop" are from a few key tracks: Phil Spector's Wall of Sound productions, particularly The Ronettes' "Be My Baby" (1963); Runt's "We Gotta Get You a Woman" (1970); Todd Rundgren's "I Saw the Light" (1972 -- yes, I know he's Runt, too); Badfinger's "Baby Blue" (1972); Big Star's "September Gurls" (1974); the Plimsouls' "A Million Miles Away" (1981); Prince's "I Could Never Take the Place of Your Man" (1987); and the Pixies' "Here Comes Your Man" (1989). Everything else falls within the parameters established by those big, thundering, melodic, propulsive landmarks. Popularity, one way or another, has nothing to do with it.

I just stumbled across this video today, and I can see that you're going to keep me busy for a while, love it. I've recently gone back and listened to Game Theory's first album as they have been remastering their catalogue. Same goes for the dbs album Repercussion which I personally like more than their first Stands for Decibels. Great upload.

Another cool video, even though I'm a CD collector, I like to see what titles / bands you are into and have discovered. I remember the Salty Dog from the 90's, same time as two other great bands from that era, namely Tora Tora and XYZ ! On a 70's rock vein, have you heard / own any Esperanto Rock Orchestra ? their debut is one of my top albums and on the southern rock front, check out a band called Thunderhead (not the German metal band), these guys are from Oklahoma and are one of the few bands I've heard that have great drumming / guitars / melodies and Flute !! (not country rock style like Marshall Tucker). Keep up the good work 😊

Yeah, nice series, enjoy your presentation style and music your selection is different from the norm and I also like the idea that you READ ! as do I !!

I saw Atlantis Philharmonic a half a dozen times back in 73-74. They were a fantastic live band! Joe used to play organ (right hand), guitar (left hand), bass pedals and sing all at the same time. Truly astounding. Thanks for the positive review of the album

Some great finds I have to look into.

Hi and thanks Can you Please add the list? Make Yourself a great favor : teen machine "after School special" Best

The Dave Mathew’s Band is boring shite. But that album peaks my interest. Happy Xmas 🕊️🎶🎸❤️‍🔥

I got into Rosalie Cunningham when you showed her first album back in the day and had a lot of trouble getting hold of a copy but finally managed to. When the second one came out I couldn't get it at all and now the 3rd one came and I finally ordered 2 and 3 from her website (I didn't before because I no longer live in England and didn't want to pay the sometimes big import fees). The website said they wouldn't be sent until the new year because she's on tour but they came last week, so that was a nice early Christmas present! (and there were no fees this time).

Great video as ever..blah..blah..blah...I always keep a tally on albums I own that you discuss..four on this particular video (Squeeze, Rosalie Cunningham, New York Dolls, U2). I'm sure you get plenty of recommendations with each post..so here's mine for this one - Bobbie Dazzle "Fandabidozi" on Rise Above records...it's a heavier, glam rock Rosalie Cunningham and my album of the year for 2024..Merry Crimbo, all the best for 2025

Hey man! Sorry to hear about the slipped discs . Good to see another video though. Pain Killer is a great album. I’ll have to check out that Squeeze album. I love that Sabbath album! I just picked up that Stone Fury album a few months ago. Agree with you on Kingdom Come. NY Dolls, great 2nd album. Happy Holidays & Cheers 🎄

Deep Feeling = Jim Capaldi = Traffic

I’m a fan of Squeeze, but haven’t heard any of their modern music or seen them live. The other recent albums and acts sound like they’re worth investigating as well. Thanks for sharing. Happy holidays!

Interesting! Most of these lps I am not aware of. I wiil check them out on the internet and give them a listen. Thanks for the reviews.

GREAT updates!!! Gives me ideas on what to look out for. Thanks for the info on these releases

Wow, Eyes of Blue, (Big Sleep Bluebell wood) only ever seen my copy!

Nice pickups, cool that you picked up a Janne Schaffer album. What a bugger with the Porcupine Three. But still a huge pile to spin, enjoy it. Cheers

Similar to Hedley up north going to York racecourse looks a decent different from the norm fair. There was a lifeblud album in my local shop and I took a chance on it and yes it's got a real nice sound and good songwriting to it. From Hertfordshire area apparently.

I saw Stray live in S Albans in 1973 or 4 i was 14 0r 15 .Aboslutely brilliant. Very loud my ears were ringinging for a few days. Loved Suicde

That Cher album is excellent.

Some crazy bargains there mate. The 31st of February for £2.50 is ridiculous, think I paid £40 or £50 and my sleeve is vg. Can't believe a dealer would price it so low, even with the mark. Same with the Big Sleep...I paid 3 figures for mine. Point me in the direction of dealers selling records like that so cheap 😄 Cheers Nige

Congrats on the massive record fair haul! Sounds like there were deals to be had. I hope you're able to track down the book ends to the Porcupine Tree triple album. Great deal nonetheless. Thanks for sharing your fair finds!

Hi , great prices at kempton hopefully I’ll get down next year, my sons in London so it would make sense to use that , I’m heading over to den Bosch in April hopefully I’ll find good value like you did. Cheers 👍

A lot of goof stuff there, I've been looking for Terry Reid that's a great find. I'm particularly drawn to the cheap unknowns with psychedelic sleeves!

Some of those tables had the right price point to indulge. Thanks for referencing Terry Brooks in regard to Vic Trigger. I am streaming the Vic Trigger now. - Chris

Hi, I showed Splash of Colour in one of my psych compilation videos. It came out in 82 I think and documents the new psychedelic scene that was happening in London at the time. I was involved in that to an extent. The Do tor who narrates part of it was the dj in the psych clubs and later had a few hits with the medics.Take 444

What a day you had Mr. Shelf. That half price table was worth the admission alone. I’ve been looking for that Cher record. Been getting her early period kitsch records. Groundhogs for first quid? Outstanding. Great haul. Cheers.

Great stuff, sadly no record fairs here, best regards from in Isaan n.e. thailand, the main rice growing region.

Firesign theater were pretty interesting radio theater albums. Sort of counter culture updates of 40s dramatic radio shows. Big for stoners. Love that Terry Reid and the Cher is great. ❤️‍🔥

Great bag for such an expedition. I might try to find one like that for myself though I’ve still never been to a record fair before! I think it’s high time I try and visit one finally, perhaps in the coming year. Thanks again for sharing. You always put me onto new artists and records to check out. Your channel is fantastic.

Wow! What a haul! I have all the Aynsley Dunbar Retaliation albums - that one is killer. Stray is great. Have their first 5 albums on CD. Cheers

Killer finds !

I like your shows. Good variety and always things I don't know about and to discover. I only watch 5 vinyl community shows regularly. Yours being one.

Another great video and some amazing content! I’d really like to check out that first album you showed Harmony Grass I love some good 60’s pop stuff! Jane’s addiction were such a dynamic band! That album is among my fave Alt Rock bands from the early 90’s All it took was for me was to hear Mountain Song and I was hooked! Hey there’s a great documentary on Amazon Prime about the Lollapalooza Festival and Perry Farrell is a big part of it Def worth checking out if you haven’t already! Man I miss Tom Petty band. I actually spun Damn the Torpedos a week or so ago and all my junior high school memories came flooding back! I’ll def check out that TP record! QOTSA are absolutely slamming! Such a unique vibe in their music! I have the Rated R LP and still sounds killer! The last thing I’d want at a QOTSA show would be Oliveri’s steaming pile of cawk swinging anywhere near me! LoL! Great video! Peace ✌️👽

Hey Mr SS! Yeah we over here across the pond are in for 4 years of chaos and possibly even more dangerous repercussions I’m going to go out on a limb that these next 4 years will also be world changing so buckle up my friend! WOW some killer records here and some I’ve not heard of but am def interested in checking out! That Bull Angus is one that I have near top of my want list I passed on it once and missed the boat then I just seen it recently and the RS owner says he still has it so I may go pick it up He’s asking $45 tho and that’s a bit more than I really want to pay. That Strange Sounds book looks cool I love stuff like that! I have that Silver Apples LP and when the mood strikes I bust it out! If you like them check out Tonto’s Expanding Headband They’re similar and quite good! Man I’d love to find a half decent priced Soundgarden album! In the local RS they’re pushing $50! Great find! Another killer vid Sorry Ive been such a stranger just going thru some personal challenges but I’m back in the fold! Peace ✌️👽

Had 161 tables, Dont miss the next one next Sunday. Nov 24th 2024. See you at Twickers.
