    When I moved to Toronto in 1982 the first record store I went to was Sam The Record Man. The store was enormous and Sam Sniderman greeted me by saying You look lost. He proceeded to show me around the store and introduce me to his sales team and stressed that they will find what you want. Before the internet this meant massive cross referencing books. I say this because back then the stores were staffed with customer service people who loved what they were doing.
    Today a visit to a store like Kops or Sonic Boom is devoid of customer service. Complete indifference is the order of the day. And calling used records from 40 years ago vintage as a way to jack up the price is quite a pisser.

    The First Pretenders is a must own ! Grace Jones does a good cover of Private Life but James Scott rips an incredible solo in original version 🎸

      LOVE Grace. Always wanted to see her live. Been trying to hunt down Hurricane for the longest time now. Almost 10 year hunt now. But epic album. Probably my fav of hers.

    R. Dean Taylor. I don't think I've ever seen an album of his. His hit was Indiana Wants Me complete with sirens as they go to arrest him!
    Nice store!

    Hi Christina, I really enjoy these store videos.... Always good to start with a bit of Undertones playing in the background... I haven't seen that Pickwick T.Rex Greatest Hits Vol. 1 in years, it was expanded into a double and came out as The Collection.... love the Bowie wall... nice to see Squeeze's Argy Bargy in the background.

    • @TheVinylGuru
      @TheVinylGuru  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Yes, that store appreciates the Brits and glam (like us) but because the owner is a cool Brit so it gets it. We have alot of Brits that live here too.
      Love your eye though. LOVE it.

    I love these digs. Saw a Phil Ochs record in the flips that’s pretty iconic. Pleasures of the harbor. Very good album. Though it’s folk. ABC was a fun band. Oh, I saw the Peppermint Rainbow. Need a Laugh? Flip it over and check out the polyester suits.
