Love that Tracy Chapman album! I have that on vinyl but the cover is beat up. I have the debut album by Tanita Tikaram as well! Great album!!! Great video my friend! Always good to watch your music findings!
Nothing like a crate dig to dispel the winter blues. I got that Tracy Chapman as part of a collection. Mint copy for $2, couldn’t believe it. Just starting to bring the early Waterboys into the collection. Really enjoying them. Cheers.
Hi Morten. There's nothing like a bit of therapeutic crate digging when you're not feeling at your best. I hope you're in a much better place now than you were in early November. I think everyone needs Tracey Chapman's debut in their collection. While I'm typing this Amazon have just delivered a Norwegian album recommended by a good VC friend of mine in Oslo. What could it be? 🤔 You'll have to wait a few days to find out. All the very best mate for the festive season and beyond. 🌲🌲🌲
@@mikevinylspiral Thank you Mike. Unfortunately my arrival here in Denmark came with some very expensive discoveries so I'm not doing so well. Still, watching the Disney Julespecial as is tradition, on both Danish, Norwegian and Swedish tv thinking I'll get on my bike and go look at the deep dark sea... As much as you CAN see when the Sun sets behind the grey skies in... one hour. Hope Leeds feels a bit festive. Looking forward to seeing your Norwegian album reveal! 😄 God og glædelig Jul min ven.
Hey Morten! Hope you're feeling better. Love the first 4 Waterboys, after that it is very up and down for me. I think 'Modern Blues' is the best since. Cheers!
Hi Morten!!! Nothing to chear up the spirit like going to a record shop and do some crate diggin'.... Yeah, nice to you added some cool records, like Tracy Chapman's biggest record and cool to see it came with extra lyrics!!! you don't see that very often..... I also remember listening to Tanita Tikaram, she had a really nice and smooth voice..... Front 242?? not bad at all. cheers and be well
I have the same kind of lyric insert on a Suzanne Vega album. I can say for certain that the only live concert i have ever seen recorded in Norway was by Tanita Tikaram. It was from her tour for The Sweet Keeper. It was recorded at some kind of outdoor venue which reminded me of rock quarry. Very interesting looking place to have a concert. There is actually a similar kind of place near where my relatives live and there's been some theatre productions shown which i've never been to. Pasi
@@6758pasi Tanita was briefly a giant in Norway. Her first was at number 1 for weeks if I remember correct. Her 2nd and 3rd albums made it to 2nd and 12th place which was much higher than most other countries. Ah, I think that must have been Kalvøyafestivalen in 1989 where she played at the same days as Tracey Chapman and Dum Dum Boys.
Hi Morten. That Tracey Chapman record has rocketed up in price in the UK in recent times. It used to be a charity shop staple but now you'd be lucky to find one for £20. The last copy I saw in Oxfam was about twice that! I failed to pick it up back in the day so I guess that's that. I blow hot and cold on The Waterboys, find Mike Scott's voice a bit full-on sometimes. Have a good Crimbo!
Hey Morten, sorry to hear you weren’t feeling the best, but nothing wrong with a bit of music therapy. You said that it was the 9th of November, so hope you are doing better in December 🙂 I’ve never heard that TF & Jad Fair album before. I’ve got a few matte European Tracy Chapman’s and sold loads, but never saw that lyric book in different languages. Very cool! That Stands cd is very underrated. It definitely wears its influences on its sleeve, but didn’t deserve some of the terrible reviews it got. Very The Band and very Bob Dylan. I’ve never heard any of their later stuff. Take care my friend!
Hi Morten- no surprise that we turn to our records when feeling a bit down - hope you’re on the upside now - great Tracy Chapman album but don’t put track 4 on it feeling a bit blue ! 😂 ☝️👍🫡🇬🇧🎄🎄🎄🎄
@This-Is-Music Nej, opdaget at gæster har tænt for elvarmen her i september og opsynsfolket har ikke lukket for det så det er vel et tab på titusener af kroner jeg knapt har så jeg har haft en forfærdelig start her Pyntet en smule men, ja, julemusikk er på og jeg fik købt ind i går.
@@MortenAastad Maybe it is time to do "Real VC challenge" for january with weekly updates... how it feels without shopping...depression or upgrade of life...

@toddthemod Oh you do? That's really cool. Not heard many in the VC outside the UK mention her.
Thank you Todd.

@@vinylmartini3377 Early Waterboys is arguably an underrated part of rock history, so I can absolute relate to that 😊
Thank you for stopping by Jack.

My favorite post those excellent 4 first albums is Dream Harder.
Take care and God Jul.

Richard McCook did a good video on the complete Tanita Tikarum catalogue a few years back.
Thanl you James.

Thank you, same to you.

I hope some windswept and rainy days in Skagen will help you feel better (maybe you're already feeling better now in December?).

The record stores are always "threat or opportunity" situations... specially if you are not looking anything specific.
@@TommysVinylnaut He he, yeah, THAT's for sure!
@MortenAastad Just wondering should I go one last time in record store or not. Planning "dry" january for shopping.
@ My plan sort of as well...
@@MortenAastad Maybe it is time to do "Real VC challenge" for january with weekly updates... how it feels without shopping...depression or upgrade of life...
@ That's a good idea.
