Hi Don: I am replying to an older upload but just felt like writing. I really enjoy your record haul videos - I am MUCH older than you but it is so gratifying to see young people interested in so many types of music and vinyl. I am a complete music junkie but I don't really collect anymore. I grew up in San Francisco and Oakland but left there in 1973 and now live in London. However, I have seen many, many great bands and musicians (rock/jazz/folk/world/soul etc.) in my time. Just a thought on the Lou Rawls lp you happened to get. You said you didn't know much about him - that record really comes from a later period. He recorded for Capitol in the '60s and made some incredible blues/soul/jazz influenced records, He is one of my very favorite singers. Following his period with the Philly association he wnt back to Capitol through Blue Note records and became more jazz/blues oriented again. Check him out further if you haven't already. A very soulful and sincere singer. D
Metal Machine Music is so boring. There are literally hundreds of artists ranging from bedroom hobbyists with ancient yard sale Fostex 4-track tape recorders to 1930's thru 1990's academic avant garde composers who do "noise" so much better. EDIT: It is however 100 times better than the hippy dippy shite that is Deja Vu by Crosby Stills Nash & Young. Hate that LP, one of the worst ever.
James Gang featured Joe Walsh (not sure if he's on that album, though) and Dickie Betts is a guitarist who played with The Allman Brothers. Great video - nice haul!
Pictures at an Exhibition is one of my favorite live albums ever recorded. Amazing stuff.
Good haul. I like those retro clocks as well!
Yay! Donny is back! And there's no better price than free for such a cool collection!
Your getting some nice stuff on the cheap....Way to go kid...Keep it up.

Thank you, I really appreciate it!!
Hey Donny nice to see you back on youtube. I enjoyed this haul quite a bit. Nothing better than free records.
Time Fades Away is one of Neil Young's best albums.
Yeah, Donny is back! Yes, you will never be the same after 'Metal Machine Music'. Polka rules BTW. Great vid mate :)

Roy Buchanan is one of the greatest guitarists who ever lived.
You have great Albums
free is me. nice haul man, i recently got that lou reed album at a garage sale and i havent listened to it yet. kinda scared to now lmao
it's hard to listen to but it's like a $30-$40 record if it's in decent shape. Good find!

Great video - nice haul!
"Walk Away" was released as a single from the album, 1971.
