What's YOUR big vinyl find?
Really nice video thanks. I’ve got the Who Live at Leeds with all the inserts and Sticky Fingers, both UK first pressings. I’ve got 3 versions of Some Girls - the one you showed, + another die cut with the faces blanked out, and a flat cover later press. Agree with you Live at Leeds is the best ever live album.
Oddly, my biggest vinyl finds have been completely by accident. For my wife's 43rd birthday I ordered her the Only Lovers Left Alive soundtrack, which is now selling on DisCogs for $300+ / and then in New York during the great vinyl purge of early 2000's, it was common to walk around the East Village and see whole record collections in the trash or curb; I found a first pressing of NAS Illmatic, worth about $400+. Now out in Brooklyn, a few years back I found Coltrane My Favorite Things just sitting at the edge of somebody's stoop, worth about $200. So, some of my most valuable LPs were very close to becoming trash.
I have those rolling stones you have plus more also lots of beatles too I'm looking to sell them too plus I have a lot of the inserts books posters with the LPS too
Primevil Smokin' Bats at Campton's $0.60
I have an original unopened john lennon and yoko ono double fantasy...anyone interested
my most valuable records are the ones I like and listen to the most.
YES!
Super like
And the winner is…. You Markus! I think some collectors forget that they will be dead soon, and your family members probably don’t give a shit about your records.
@@jasontheflyingfarrierhays well, I've been living a long time before the discogs craze kicked in. For me it is the music, for others a fetish, ..., which will be over one day soon. And the then yellow-space-macic first vinyl pressing, limited to 500 copies world-wide, will be a crappy piece of plastic, which would have once cost 150 EUR after the first week of release ;-) Stupid world.
You’re an honorable man, lord commander
Love this! Yet another great video, with information I was unable to find elsewhere. Btw, CCR RULES!!!! I even purchased a large book with all their sheet music so I could get all the lyrics right. (Way back in the days before Google of course!). Thanks again.
THIS WAS GREAT, downsizing and parting with those of my orginal purchase from 1960++
Received my street survivors few days ago and I’m going to put it on the wall! Also have a few CCR albums on the way also a favorite of mine!
I scooped an Original Canadian press BeatleMania (With The Beatles) for $3 dollars at a garage sale last year. It plays and sounds great after a thorough cleaning and added my own matching vintage red and white Pathe rooster Capital inner sleeve I had since my childhood used randomly on anther record. Im sure it’s far more valuable.
I have an unplayed, still in the skin sleeve 10" radio station promo of Bobby Troupe, some 10" Sinatras including Swing Time, and about 1,000 pounds more of all manner of 12" in storage from my father's collection dating back to 1940. I gave away his bound collection of Glenn Miller Army Air Force Band albums to a friend's mother who loved his music. Dad was in television and radio, and was one of those audiophiles with the Macintosh 1900 amp and all the goodies in 1972, right before he got cancer. I really ought to have someone go through all these.
My copy of Live at Leeds looks just like yours, and the ringware came off really easy with an eraser!
They’re worth what you paid for them..super glad I didn’t get rid of mine when I moved, they almost went to Half Priced books and Records..
Brilliant collection.
Cool vid, just subscribed. I found a copy of Chelsea, Peter Criss' pre- Kiss band on Decca. It's not a promo which is actually the more common one
This was from two years ago it’s coming up as a video for today that I should watch probably because I watch someone else’s video the other day I’m trying to learn more about my final collection.
The additional items in the first or early pressings is not necessarily an indicator because these are frequently replicated in later issues. The Beatles / White Album photographs and poster appeared in all the later issues as did the Sgt. Pepper insert, although the early ones were a darker shade of green. Even The Who Live At Leeds album has had it's extras reproduced in later issues. I have the Who box set, Phases that came out in 1981. It includes the first 9 Who albums including Live At Leeds complete with all the extras. This set is particularly good because it was made in Germany, where they famously make great sounding records, and it was given to me by a friend who worked for Phonogram and didn't want it.
I have the same Rolling Stones 1981 US Tour poster that is displayed on the wall. I had to buy a Jovan frangrence and send in proof of purchase to get that poster. I had it framed and gave it to my youngest son. I also framed the "Who Live at the Marquee" poster from the Live at Leeds album and gave it to my oldest son. For my daughter I framed a Beatles poster from one of their compilation LPs. A great way to pass on some music memrobelia to your kids.
Nice! My big vinyl finds' Rolling Stones "Hot Rocks" with the alternate Wild Horses and Brown Sugar and scored a Led Zeppelin 45 "Hey, Hey, What can I Do? with the Crowley etch.
SHINEDOWN tee made me subscribe! You're knowledge sharing too😆
5:30 free bird!!! Necklace and T-shirt!! That mail in form was very cool and smart marketing back then!! Still today.
David Bowie Diamond Dogs (1990 reissue) with origional art pre air brush. Recently read an article saying this art work sold for almost $9000.00 w/o the album.
Great information and well done video. I was wondering if there was a difference in value between the two Blind Faith covers. I own both but the condition of the vinyl between the two is extreme. I guess what I'm asking is if one cover is more valuable, could the condition of the vinyl cancel out that advantage?
I remember back in the summer of 1991 my friend who was a big music guy took thousands of his vinyl records of Led Zeppelin, PInk Floyd, Ozzy, Ac Dc ect and threw them in the dumpster. And he wasn't the only one I know other people that did the same thing. I supposed some thought records were silly since everybody was buying cassettes, CD's ect and saw no use for them anymore. I think things like that is why vinyl rock records are valuable now.
I hear soooo many stories like that. Crazy ex-wives, dirt bag roomates, pissed-off boyfriend/girlfriends tossing them. Kills me to hear that.
someone on ebay sold me 2 rolling stones albums and a rare costers album still in wrap from 79 for 25.00 found out its worth 40 alone and someone on ebay also sold 4 mccartny albums was hosest sais 2 were soo the the value of vg+ red rose highway and band on the run origonals for 25 made it worth it gotten great deals on discogs too
Nice vid! Classic vinyls indeed!
*vinyl
The cover of some girls didn't change because the record company was cheapskates, it changed because the Stones were threatened with lawsuits. The pictures they used on the original insert were pictures of celebrities, living ones like Farrah Fawcett Raquel Welch and Lucille Ball, and dead ones like Marilyn Monroe and Jayne Mansfield. The band was sued by the living celebrities and the estates of the dead ones, use of image without permission, invasion of privacy, copyrighted image, etc...faced with so many lawsuits, not just by the celebrities, but by their production companies, the Stones had no choice but to change the insert for future pressings, removing the actresses and keeping the band faces. Lawsuit, not cutting costs, that was the primary reason some girls cover was changed.
Informative and entertaining! Thanks
Glad you enjoyed it!
Damn we have the same records !! I am restoring my turntable a Yamaha Pf800 and replaced cartridge and belt ,very excited 😁
Dude. That's a lust-worthy turntable! Have fun with it.
My most valuable records in my collection are the round ones with the holes in the middle! :)
Mine too!
The problem with most first pressings, from any band we admire, years ago, unless the original owners were audiophiles and fanatical collectors, lots of people didn't taken great care of the actual record. In many instances, the actual covers and inserts might be in better shape than the records. A few year ago, I found a stack of records left on the street, there must have been over 100 LPs in boxes. I ran home to get my shopping cart, I managed to find about 50 LPs I was interested in, there were different genres: rock, jazz and R'n'B. With these LPs, there was the problem I described, most of the records were in fair condition, but the outer covers and inserts seemed to be in pretty good shape.
😊 thank for sharing your knowledge with us. I don't now how to ask u if or even how worth mentioning my question about leftovers I came across. Abandoned LPS. From the dates u spoke about in part 1 and 2. But learned a lot from you. Thank u very much.
My pleasure 😊
Thanks so much for the info.I would love to learn more
Any time!
I have the moody blues #1 master in the round out it has "bell sound" stamped, it also has the miss print
Nice. An under-appreciated band these days.
Have over five hundred albums. Loved music in the 70s
I was looking through some record that I inherited. I found a thirteen record album. From the United States Air Force. Called air force system command 1965
Man.... I'm getting serious OCD when I look at how you handle your albums, the old original ones as well 😨🤯 .. No innersleeve, grabbing the album with your fingers on the grooves.... yaiks!
Well, there's meds for the OCD. But yes, I get caught up in the moment (remembering to smile, remembering what I want to say, etc.) when shooting a vid and tend to manhandle the vinyl. Trust that you know better!
I just got around 100 or so records from my boss....he bought a house and the owners left lots of stuff....4 of the records are still sealed...they are mostly from the 50's-70's
Every last copy of "Sticky Fingers" that I ever saw that had the zipper, had damage to the track "Brown Sugar" from the tab of the zipper rubbing in the stack during shipment. A pity as it was my fave track. How's yours?
Well crud, now I need to go look! One of my favs from the Stones, right after Let It Bleed and Beggar's Banquet.
Thanks for the video and information. I totally agree with you about Live At Leeds. I’d even go as far as to say this album helped introduce the world to heavy metal. And I don’t think there is a better ending to a live song than in the My Generation medley when Pete Townsend takes the microphone stand and rubs it up and down his guitar neck. Every time I hear it I say to myself, “Damn! What an ending!!!”
DUUUUDE. What an album. They were at the height of their performance powers with that set.
@@DeafManVinyl I totally agree. That album totally rocked my world!!
"Allman Brothers at the Fillmore East" is a better live album than 'Live at Leeds."
on one of my J.Geils albums, in the dead wax, it says "when are we going to Miami"
I have a vinyl record of Pink Floyd's Dark Side of the Moon in quadraphonic sound which means that you can listen to it through four speakers at the same time so it's like surround sound but they don't make the amplifiers any more
Yeah, Quadraphonic was the original Surround Sound. 12-year-old me got a set-up for my birthday back in the early '70s. Bet you can still find some out there. Keep 'em spinning!
Most collectors I know are budget shoppers but are super picky. I found a sealed Tears For Fears album that might be an $80 record, but everyone passed because "it's 80's". Picked up a couple of 70's drug PSA records w/out covers. There are zero online total or info. Again people were like "why'd you grab those? Are you sure you know what your doing?"
OMFG...that cat almost made me spit out my drink!!!
I own a copy of a very rare jazz LP from 1973 called Comapass Rising. They only made 500 copies and now it will go for $500-$700. Paid $8 for it. :)
Very informative
IHi,just subscribed, I"m 70 yrs young and have about 800 albums mostls 70s rock, i've had a rough time the last years Inever thought i'd ever get rid of them ,but that time has come. Most about 80% of them are in pristine condition,my equipment was always top of the line,I don't want to gouge anybody but then i don"t want to give them away ! If you have any hook ups on any interest,that would really help.
Hey Luis. Sorry to be so late getting back to you. I was out of the country for a while and still catching up. I'd be interested in seeing what you've got, if you're ready to sell (I know it's a tough decision). A few pics or a short video of you flipping through a stack would help me get my head around what you've got. If we can work out a price, I'll send you some pre-paid labels for shipping. Just let me know!
I'm surprised when you talked about "swag" (promos) you didn't mention Dark Side of the Moon with the posters & the stickers, the U.K version had different posters as well (The pyramids are in blue & close up, the band poster is horizontal & pink as opposed to the North America version which is red & different photos of the band!
Yeah, Floyd was really ambitious with the inserts. Wish You Were Here had a crazy outer cover and also some postcards inside. Love that swag!
I'm super jealous of your vinyl collection man, hell im 18 so I'm jealous of you being around as these albums came out lol
Hey! Yeah, I was around for the Classic Rock days, but you've got plenty of good stuff coming out on vinyl these days. Most bands are releasing at least a small qty on vinyl. I'm even seeing some artists release on cassette tape (which is a format I personally never want to ever see again). Get busy buildings that collection!
A pulled cover from Lynyrd skynyrd "street survivors" album showing the group on fire, prior to released cover change after the fire.
I've got 5 pink Floyd albums still in original wrap on. Never been opened.

And animals...
Awesome.
Have an old Beatles white album wanting to know if its one of the first presses
Okay I’ve got that record code in the middle at the blank spot what now how do I find the rest
I have some of those old thick ones lol The charioteers, ink spots and elle Fitzgerald, more of them I will have to look at the pressing but pretty sure orgianl lol
Those Ella's might have some value. Are you able to play them?
I'm based in the UK and have a UK press of Cant buy a thrill and it doesnt have the catalogue
no.on the front cover
It should be on the spine, no? Sometimes they hide it on the back. Should also be on the label. An amazing album! My fav, along with Countdown to Ecstasy.
I have this Wallachs Music City 45rpm single of 3 of the Beatles talking with Wink Martindale of KFWB in Los Angeles from the 60's. I have always wondered what is its worth.
@@alexvalenzuela508 ???
I find value in the sound quality.
Most pressings have sub-par sound quality.
A small percentage have amazing sound quality, and I value those a great deal. All others, I toss. Why?
I listen to music not only for the melodies, but also for the sound quality.
If I only want to hear the melody, then I can play a digital version from a .flac file or from youtube, etc.
But for me to do the extra labor of playing a record, then I must be rewarded with sonic bliss. That only happens with the right pressings.
Stamper codes go a long way to know which pressings to avoid (because none of those stampers have great sound quality) and which pressings to seek. But having the right stamper codes only gives you a shot at great sound quality. The right stamper code can still have nothing special sound quality for your specific purchase. But at least you will have a shot at great sound quality when you identify which stamper codes are best for an album.
And the stamper codes vary for every single album, and for each side of each album. So this is no easy task.
And the sound quality can be fantastic on side 1, and suck on side 2 (or vice-versa). So if you want great sound quality for both sides, then you often have to make multiple purchases until you find one that has great sound quality on side 1, and a different pressing for great sound quality on side 2. I have done this for many albums. Abbey Road is an example of a must have for both sides. I never found one that sounds great on both sides. So I wound up with two pressings: one for side 1, and one for side 2.
I am all for the people that value rare album jackets. But this hobby gets expensive, quickly. So I stick to finding the sonic gems.
There is joy in having special jackets. For me, however, there is more joy in hearing the magic in the groove of the best sounding pressings.
When you land an amazing sounding pressing, it makes your stereo sound like it just tripled in price.
Great video
Thanks!
Great info. What catalog are you holding at the end of your video? Something I should have? I'm just starting my collection
It's the Goldmine Record Album Price Guide. A very nice thing to have. You can certainly use Discogs for real-time pricing info, but I find this an excellent resource. You can get them for around $24.95. Use mine all the time!
I've been writing down the matrix numbers for my 1970's rock LPs and there are a lot of errors in them, like a missing dash on one side or weird marks that maybe were supposed to be a "@" symbol... I guess the engineers back then were more concerned about a different type of "number".
Yeah, a lot of time the engineers added their own weird symbols, even their initials and signature sometimes. Discogs typically includes notes about even those weird things. I've had fits trying to nail down some releases. Good luck!
I have the Pretty Woman album with Julia Roberts and Richard Guere on it. I think it was pressed in 1989
I have The Beatles 1995 u.k press Trifold 3LP - The Beatles Anthology , how much it value ?
Like everybody else, you make it about the money. It's about the music. It's all about the music...
Not EVERYONE ELSE makes it about the money, AND, THIS GUY does PLENTY on his channel to show it is NOT about the money. So, you are wrong twice in about a mere 15 words. Tough ratio. You're best to just keep quiet. You'll make fewer errors.....
So I Have 2 LPs. One titled "EXPERIENCE" JIMI HENDRIX. The other volume 2 "MORE EXPERIENCE". Both purchased at a used record store in 1976. Pristine condition like the original owners played it once. It's the soundtrack from a film of an Albert Hall live concert which the Hendrix estate has never released despite promises. Any thought on a value of these LPs?
Hey Rob/Jeannie - I'm seeing this in the $9.95-$14.95 range on Discogs. From what I've seen at our online and bricks-and-mortar stores, there is def interest in Jimi, but not enough demand to command super-high prices. Always exceptions, but that's been my experience.
I have a Rolling Stones bootleg album recorded sometime in the early 60’s, it has a pressing # on vinyl RS-127-A-7, the centre of the album is plain rite with “stones again” the Rockers hand written in pen any comments?
I don't know anything about that one. Check out this site, which lists Stones bootlegs: www.dbboots.com
I have a bunch of sealed original albums. Black Sabbath Black, Kiss Destroyer, old Ted Nugent, Fraley's Comets. Would love to know how much they're worth.
Depends on if they’re original or not. Black Sabbath on the Vertigo label are going to be worth a lot more
I physically removed the Zipper out of "Sticky Fingers" because it left off-centre indentation to the album that sat against it in the middle of a floor-wall lean-up pile of 60 or so. Still have it from when i bought it, approx late 70's Did anyone notice how Decca Stones albums sounded far better than their own R.Stones Mobile Recording Studio records from Exile on Main Street & onwards? Tho things improved in that area by the time of "Black & Blue" & "Some Girls" No Srones recording quality hit the lofty capable hights of recording technicians who mastered Decca's "Let it Bleed" & "Beggars Banquet" to my ears when compared on any given system. Small detail because it's the music that makes an album gr8 ...or not
Stones UK pressings are superior to the US Londons!
Some US Londons sound good, Mono Between the Buttons in particular
I have several Promo albums, signed albums, song books, one is The Beatles songbook, signed by John Lennon and Paul McCartney. I can't prove any of them are authentic, just that 2 of my and my husbands friends gave me when they learned they were dying. We took care of them until death and a couple of weeks before they died, they told me that since I love music, I could have the records! Both were DJ's way back! How do I get them authenticated to sell?
So, this is a dicey area. I've heard from many reputable folks in the memorabilia biz that there are more fakes floating around than legit ones. What you want to get is a COA (Certificate of Authenticity). My trustworthy buddy who has been in the biz for many years recommends JSA www.spenceloa.com/verify-authenticity/results and PSA www.psacard.com/cert/. There are also folks who specialize in Beatles memorabilia. But the bottom, bottom line is that if you did not physically see someone sign it, or have a vid/pic of it happening, it should be at least slightly suspect in your mind. I buy some signed albums from time to time, and I always try to think through, "Does this make sense?" So, certainly, DJs who were in a position to get stuff singed by ex-Beatles makes sense. Good luck!
I mostly enjoy Limited pressings then I go to Colored. I do enjoy 45s but not nearly as much as LPs
There are a whole lot more options than there were back in the day, that's for sure. My son has probably one regular black record out of a hundred!
They have numbers on the back sleeve and also it's also all over record
The sky is blue
I'm cringing every time you put your fingers on the grooves, lol. Maybe it's just me. I'm only up to the Sticky Fingers original zipper copy, I've got that and every other you've showed so far. My favorite in my large collection is The Original copy of The Beatles White Album with all the original head shot photos included. I love this series. Keep them coming. Btw, I'm pushing 70yrs old and purchased my first vinyl album the day after The Beatles Ed Sullivan appearance... still have it.
Yeah, in my haste to juggle all the parts of shooting a video, I definitely manhandle those records! In real life, I'm certainly more careful. Keep rocking!
All my records were bought the time they were reilised I have records from 1969 to 1990 all when first out but most played regular on my phono system
You need some inner sleeves my man 🤙 Great video though! Love your collection.
Yea. He treats his records like a 16 year old just getting into records
What is the intro track?
thanks for all your information about records I really appreciate that.go to the thrift store I go and see the records they have and even though they are open most of them I will see and they have any scratches on the vinyl if no scratches I want my a lot of the pop music ones I have an record album K-Tel original hits from 1972 can you tell me what it might be worth I'm not for sure.I also have Amy Grant album from early 1980s no scratches I really hope sometime I can pick up some great rare ones.even in yard sales I will be looking for records also 45s also.
Hey John - always fun to go digging through the piles! Problem is, a lot of these thrift shops now realize how desirable good records are. A lot of them have someone on staff who knows a bit about vinyl and will list them on eBay/Discogs. K-tel records are fun, but not particularly valuable in my experience. We put them in a $3 bin at the store, and they sell pretty steady. Keep 'em spinning!
@@DeafManVinyl Thank you for great help response @Deaf Man Vinyl
I was going through my records and I just inherited some old stuff. Like a six record album from the air force from 1965. What is it worth?
I'm saying $$0.0. That said, I've learned never to say never. I'd check it out on eBay or Discogs. But for the most part, nobody young is going to want to listen to that, and somebody old enough to want to listen to that for nostalgia isn't going to have a working turntable!
I have a 1967 Are You Experienced Album by The Jimi Hendrix Experience in mono, which was a present from my then girlfriend when I was 19 years old. I would never part with it for sentimental reasons, but I'm wondering how rare it is now?
Nice! Give it a look on Discogs and eBay (what it has SOLD for, not what it is selling for).
I have it , what a sound! It s more dynamic than the stereo !
My mom has a signed first pressing of “too fast for love” by Motley Crue under their leatür records label. Only 900 copies of that pressing were made. How much is it worth?
In good condition....a pretty little penny!!!!!
A couple thousand
I have a lot if laser disk movies some never opened. Is there any value in laser disks. Thanks tom
Yeah, I got strong-armed into buying a bunch from a guy I was buying records from. I think some of the classics (The Godfather, etc.) will sell for $7-$10. But they weigh a ton, so shipping will be interesting (although they are eligible for USPA Media Mail, which is about as cheap it gets).
I just started watching your show and you are giving out great info
Hello. I am a beginner vinyl seller. I don't have a huge collection and I have used Discogs but I don't understand how to use it. As an example, I searched this catalogue number for the Rolling Stones Hot Rocks 1964-1971 2xLP: XZAL 11018GL AL and a long list appeared. On the right, I found low, medium and highest prices paid ranging from A$1.31 to A$59.81. How can I see what drove the highest priced one? Can you help me? If I can provide more information, please let me know. TIA.
The trick is to actually start like you're going to list the album. So, click "sell vinyl" for the release that you have (catalog number and runout code if there are a ton of versions, as with Hot Rocks). Enter the condition of the record and jacket, and typically a suggested sell price will pop up. You can then click "see details," and go through the reCAPTCHA to see a trend line for recent sales. Find a few listings in similar condition, and you can get a feel for the going price. I'm typically looking for a sure sale and not holding out for the last dime, so tend to go on the lower end of things. There might be an easier way to get to Discogs pricing info, which someone can comment on. But this is the way I typically do it.
Hello boss... Is it safe to clean a vinyl record thats vintage and i dont know if its valuable but i find a handwritten code on the "deadend".. Anyways my vinyl records dusty and i want it to be clean if it will not affect its value.
A clean record is always a good thing! Can't think why cleaning it would affect value. Just clean it right/carefully.
Seems like about half of the albums I look up the dead wax info on do not appear on discogs. It is not complete at all. Just so you know.
Yeah, I'll occasionally come across albums not listed on DisCogs, but it's fairly rare. Two things (if you're unaware): search the band and album name first, then find the catalog number in Versions (often multiple catalog numbers are the same, which is why you then need to search the matrix/runoff numbers within those catalogs numbers. It's complicated at first. However, if you find a band or album that's not listed on DisCogs at all, YOU can create that listing and ADD it to DisCogs. And presumably, since that record or version has never been cataloged before, you've got on your hands (potentially) a valuable record. Which you could then set a price for on DisCogs, even something outlandish like $200. Then, wait for more people to add or try to sell that record you've just listed, and because they see you're trying to sell it for quite a bit, they'll also try to sell theirs for quite a bit but just a little less, and maybe someone will be enticed enough to buy, and boom, you've got a valuable record. I've done this a few times with rare records, and it occasionally works.
I've found about 50 33 records in my crawlspace. No covers but they were in like a binder. How can I find out there worth? I have one by Al Jolson
So, that's actually where the term "albums" came from as it relates to records. Early 78s and then 33s were packaged in these binders, or albums. And the name stuck. Typically, this type of bundled record isn't worth much. They were popular tunes packaged and sold, often as part of a subscription service. Readers Digest even got in on the act. That said, I never say never. So might want to check a few of them on eBay or Discogs. But not thinking there's going to be much value. Good luck!
When it comes to The Beatles you better have a Beatles price guide. So many variations on not just the LP's but singles also. The Beatles catalogue of records is by far the most valuable of all records.
Peace ❤
Amen to that! The Beatles (and Elvis) have a dizzying array of pressings.
Oh Lordy, I inherited about 200 classic rock vinyls from my step father who was the director of the Navy band for over 20 yrs....don't know where to start,???
Help
I have the Pretty Woman Album ; original movie soundtrack. Julia Roberts and Richard Gere on the Cover. 1989.
Cool vlog
Thanks 😁
I had and might still that Rolling Stones record.
The Kinks - One for the road is the best live album.
Everything worths as your appreciation.
Try again, in English please....................

I have that same Molly Hatchet Record, well I have all the Molly Hatchet records lol
No no no no I don't believe I saw you do that . Folks never get into the habit of dropping your vinyl into the sleeve,
Thumb on edge , fingers (clean) on label and feed it into cover horizontally .
or your gonna mistakenly do it to a valuable record one day and a nice split is gonna appear on the spine of the cover
Yeah man, you busted me on that one. I know it's no excuse, but there is so much going on when I'm making one of those vids that I invariably do something stupid that I go back and cringe when I watch. So yes, people, Robert speaks words of wisdom!
Keep going...slide into inner sleeve first with lower cut out of sleeve facing you if it has one. Then slide whole thing into card sleve with opening of inner sleeve at TOP. This locks out any dust getting in and stops album from sliding out by accident. Finall, buy a load of acid free clear sleeves and store vertically in dry warmish room ie NOT a cellar or loft subject to temp variations. Been doing this since 1974 and would be interested to know if there is a database website that shows album values as I have several gatefold albums with original artwork on inner sleeves and album covers.
@@paulredding5864 the place your after is called discogs , hope your not married as it sounds your gonna be spending a lot of time on there
Yes I have some albums I need to show
In the late sixties/early seventies my father worked at a radio station in southern FL, and when I turned 13 gave me his entire collection.
Within that collection are many white label promos, and a few test pressings. Might be worth a video on some of those...
Yep, white labels are cream of the crop for collectibles. Where did your dad work? I grew up in Ft. Lauderdale rocking to WSHE, Zeta 4 and K102. Miss the days of the home-town rock station!
@@DeafManVinyl This would have been WUSF (University of Southern Florida) circa 69-73. He had a show called The Underground Railroad dedicated to blues and country rock, but they played all the great stuff. I think (as the story goes) he built of the station's library for years, then the University was pressured to shut the show down (for some reason), so he took all the records with him (around a thousand). They sat for over two decades in cabinets in our living room until he gave them to me. I bought poly bags for them off the internet in like... 1994? Some came with me to college and such, and finally in 2016 we shipped them from Indiana up to New York here. Except for the ones I've contributed over the years, nearly every record is from those golden rock years of 68-75, average rating of VG+ for the vinyl, VG for the sleeves. (But there's a few that are somehow through all that NM, which boggles my mind...how?!) Anyway, it's been a long time dream of mine to open a record store, and do basically, exactly what you're doing--so keep it spinning!
@@tkahres Great story! I'm a proud USF grad (a bit later than your dad). WUSF was pretty much a news/NPR station when I was a Bull, so not much in the way of music. If I remember right, the hot station was 88.5, which was the community access station. I got turned on to tons of great artists listening to that station. Keep dreaming and scheming on that record store! There's never been a better time.
Can you advise on how to put a price to it to sell on internet?
I personally don't have the guts to start them out at $1 like some folks do. So, I put a reasonable starting price on them. I always take a look at Discogs and the sold/completed items on eBay relative to what I'm selling and start at about half of that. Discogs is a marketplace for pretty serious buyers/sellers, so you def have to determine which pressing you have and be very truthful in your grading. Ebay is a little more forgiving. Good luck!
Dont touch the grooves! I also have those not so thick vinyls but they sound still great.
I have a 1969 coke promotional album, title Groovy, nobody can find any history on it, mint condition, not sure where to turn
Good ol "Roy" Parker Jr.
The label,date and lp number and compare it to record catalog of rare records
Oh, man. I hate to nitpick, but don't leave your records on top of your hot Pioneer receiver for an extended period of time if you don't want to risk warping them, or overheating your receiver! Also, you didn't mention how the original Some Girls records are worth a lot more because they had to change it after a lawsuit. Despite that, I really did enjoy this video.
Right on about the hot Pioneer. Not a good record storage device, for sure.
I'll never understand a 'record person' who puts his fingers all over the vinyl, and even the covers, which also can be damaged by bodily oils. When you put the CCR record ALMOST all the way in the sleeve, is when I had to be on my way.
That CCR album is a reissue .
CCR is a late 70’s pressing.
