Woa! How did I miss this place when I visit San Francisco in '97?!!! Cool place - and I love that Darando track! Fascinating vignette. Peace.
Been buying and selling good stuff here since the McFadden days. Cool Chris knows what's up. Others have come , some have gone. Groove Merchants still here.
Yes. Even when I visit home I go by..
Damn look at that Otis T Johnson record in the background. Now that's a rare (and insane/amazing) album.
constantly solid vibes, "Cool Chris" rules, as do Josh, Jon, Benji, Jerome, & Vinny so many quality jams purchased over the years.
remember visiting Groove's Around my brithday at San Francisco along with Visiting Recycled Records, Aomba s.f., & Original Vinyl
Visited a few times. Always worth the trip.
Cool vid. Love this store. Nice people. Reasonable. Great feel. Lots of 45s too.
Soul & Funk addicted it's a pity that I missed this store....I was there in early July but I came just too late before the store closed at about 06.00 or 07.00 PM....Unfortunately I could not come back the day after as I had to go a bit further in my US Trip....I'll be back!!!!
See you from Belgium!
Great video! I needed to see this before work. I got that Sam Dees lp also.
that Darondo track is sick
Duh
check out the remake of it by Los Stellarians. .So good
I am from Copenhagen, Denmark and know Darondo.
I’m from darondo and I know Copenhagen,Denmark.
That Darondo track is beautiful, though it sounds suspiciously like the Delfonics classic which came two years earlier.
I was thinking the same thing. It sounds like a riff on "Didn't I Blow Your Mind This Time?"
It may be rare to his eyes and ears, plus he most likely knows his customers tastes. good video!! The sounds were good too.
one of the best!
Twilight's "Scorpitarius" from the prior album was a killer Latin Groove in the mold of Malo. Killer cut!
Beautiful post vfeditions...
Peace N Respect!
This one goes out to my man the Groove Merchant, coming thru with beats for which I've been searching.
you probably dont give a shit but does someone know of a way to log back into an instagram account..?
I was dumb forgot the account password. I appreciate any help you can give me
@Jeffrey Zakai instablaster :)
that line is what made me search this....Proffesor Booty...which is a VERY underated amazing beat
Damn bro, I'm going to have to go to your shop!
Cool keepin's it...cool. bet alotta sample based producers go here most definitely!!! Domino producer for Hiero use to live and work here.
sweeeeet!!!!!!! great music :)
cool video dude. peace to music lovers all around the world
been in there. hard to compete with rooky's just up the street, but a cool little shop indeed.
Sam dees man. What voice, what a writer, what an album!. Might dig it out 2mo
Really hoping that Durando is on the official soundtrack coming out on RSD
Always call in when I am in town.
What's the track at the beginning og the video?
Would love to know the track that starts at 0:16.
Do all your videos have sound post-production? It seems as if the song clips you put in every one of them sounded better than the actual tracks?
That's My Homeboy Rite'Dere !! Alllwayz Hookin Me Up !!!! #2 Thumbs Up !
Breaking Bad introduced me to Darondo. Cheers!
Same. Cheers!
Same. They just reissued his album last year
I am also a Soul, RnB, Doo Wop record collector. No decent record shops in my area of Delaware. Nothing in Southern Delaware. A real bummer !! I do my picking on ebay. The trouble is most ebay sellers have no clue, as to grading guidelines. I now purchase only from reputable record sellers on Ebay that know how to grade records and company record sleeves.
Discogs is where it's at my brother
that civil attack record is rare
Sam dees released a lot of stuff.
What's the name of the intro track?
th-cam.com/video/iYgTHXeiOqM/w-d-xo.html
the name of first song pls ?
September - Stump
this is dope
The guy needs a trip to Tokio and see what a Proper rare records store is .
+Davide Amato Or even London...
Spent 4 years of my life in LDN ,you're damn right Sir !
Yeah, you guys are right, because this guy sucks! He spends all of his time finding records his customers love, like a fucking chump! And then he tracks down obscure artists and fucking helps them get their music reissued so they can be appreciated all over again! What a loser. SO NOT A PROPER STORE.
Fucking internet, man. it's just the worst.
cootaloot
you don't get it at all...for me, the whole point of "diggin" or whatever people call it nowadays, was the buzz of finding that special record you had been after for years YOURSELF!! and paying hardly anything for it, instead of being scalped by some "loser" . Yup! s'right..
Davide Amato motortrend
😎😎😎cool dude😎😎😎
sniff sniff
No way. I think he’s trying to come off as, “yeah... we got rare funk...NBD... you got any xanny?”
😍😘🤗
Shout out to the original KBLX 102.9. I wish I would have been at that sale. The "new" KBLX sucks btw...
That Round Robin record was so bad I don't know what to think about Groove Merchants or Luv n Haight anymore...
I avoid these shops like the plague!
Nothing beats going to place with 1000s of cheap vinyls.
And spending hours digging for rare classics, that are dirt cheap!
Errr....Sam Dees....a guy that didn't do too much? Who is this clown
The guy who runs the record store needs to get a good nights sleep
nah, hes just on some heroin probably..
Not very rare for a record shop owner
that attitud maaaannnnn, he believes he has the best record store in the world......... pf chill out bra
don't like shops like THI$$$$
+Rene Perez Your typical over-rated and over-priced record shop! Those LPs are unknown for a reason...
there's a place for shops like this. some people don't like digging and hell, if they can afford go ahead and spend over retail price for that rare soul 45 you need to complete your Kent Records Collection. these shops just aren't for me because I can't spend 100, 50 or even 30 bucks on one vinyl record. not very often anyway...
I mean people like getting the original thing as a trophy which can be seen as a bit silly, but if they want to that's cool. As long as represses are coming out, and they are, people who can't afford can actually listen to and love the tunes for they were meant to be in the first place.
They are really nice. The vinyl is reasonable. No attitude. No LA stuff
Been a funk dj for a couple of years... These are not rarities to me
what does this statement mean ?
Have you ever heard Charlie Cuva soundtrack to the Robert Downey film The Pound? I know you have. Rare.
that guy attitude is irritating.
