Some great finds! I have the Sade box set that came out a couple years ago, and it's one of my prize possessions. Her music is MADE for vinyl. Bringing It All Back Home is another stellar find. I have a stereo early press of that (not a first, but it's early). It would be great to have it in mono.
Holy crap, that Dolly Parton album is heavy! So beautifully crafted with some outstanding musicianship. I'm definitely going to be hunting down a clean copy of that album!
So much good stuff in this one, I feel as though I should have been taking notes. Don't know where you stand on Beck, but his last album Hyperspace is one of my most played vinyls during this whole what have you. I truly feel he had the vinyl format in mind when he wrote that album and it just sounds fantastic IMHO. Also, I was always fascinated by those inner sleeves with all the other releases on them as a kid and found the variety of music offered to be amusing. Great stuff!
The loudness war is strange to me. Whoever does the mixing should know you can only go so loud before distortion and stop before then. However so many made that error.
Thanks for the heads up on the Black Crowes Shake your moneymaker. On the app version it gives 4.5 stars out of 5. I will update wish list for earlier version.
Hi Robert. So many people return due to a slight ding or dent on a cover or due to the sound as you discovered. Amazon has to push out all their returns. Still really amazing what you picked up, really incredible. Enjoy. Steve
Thanks! Black Crowes is the only one that sounded bad. I read that some people actually returned the Best of Sade because the song "Sweetest Taboo" had crackling and distortion in it...... That's the rain sound effect. LOL
Robert, you scored some great stuff there. Dig the Whiskeytown, especially for $6. Great Dylan album, especially to get the mono version...and for $6. WOW! Even though you aren't the biggest Van Morrison fan, that's a phenomenal album. Give it a few spins and live with it a while and see what you think. I hate to hear that about "The Black Crowes" album. I wonder if that was pressed at United Pressing Plant? The Best of Sade is a sweet pickup as well. Very nice grab, indeed. You make great points on the album length debate. Honestly, when I made my first two albums, there was no care in the world as to fitting into a time box any less than 70 minutes. When we did the 20th Anniversary vinyl release of my first album, we ended up in that quandary. The album, as it was recorded, was too long to fit onto one LP, so we decided to add 4 bonus tracks and it became a 2 LP set, which I ended up having cut and pressed at Erika Records, a boutique pressing plant that specializes in smaller runs with a keen eye for quality control and I couldn't have been happier. Our next album we are working on, we are being mindful as far as timing is concerned, and it will most likely be a single LP just to be a little more cost conscientious. Good to see you grabbed that Dolly album. I agree, her 70's RCA stuff is storytelling at it's best. Finally getting a chance to catch up on some videos as work has settled down for a bit. Goos seeing you again. Take care, Billy-
Thanks for comments! Looks like the Black Crowes IS United Pressing Plant. I'll be sure to watch out for that in the future. Love all those early Dolly albums, but this one is exceptional.
Just added The Fairest Of Them All to my Spotify list. I've always been a succer for a good deal too, and have discovered a lot of great music that way.
If you haven't yet, getting Steven Wilson's "The Raven that Refused to Sing" and "Hand. Cannot. Erase." are musts. He keeps his same sound, but the songs have more structure.
Trader Buck's Flea Market? Sounds like a place to find some characters. Myself included. Six dollars a pop... I'd clean house. I agree on your opinion on Double Albums. You're NOT into creepy dirty babydolls? That makes me want to listen to Dolly Parton!
You wondered a few times why the records were in there, in a bin for $6 - well, I reckon they were there waiting for you to rescue them! Their very own guardian angel! 😁😁😁
@@RobertFithen They pronounce it Shaw Day. I always forget which album it is, but one of them actually shows the correct pronunciation on the record label.
Even as low as $6 is still just a waste of $6 if you’re not that into it & you only play it once or twice, it’s just a case of he who dies with the most vinyl wins, I just don’t see the point
Hi, and great finds, especially for $6! As far as Steven Wilson goes he has become one of my favorite artists over the last few years, and it started with The Raven That Refused To Sing. It has a similar sound to, say, King Crimson, so if you like them you may like this. His moist recent albums are a little more poppy, so I'd suggest previewing them on youtube, spotify, etc first prior to purchasing.
I have often looked at the album covers advertised on old inner-sleeves and wanted to collect them all. Perhaps that's why I own several George Maharis albums. Great video. Thanks!
I used to obsess over the Beatles' Capitol inner sleeves. They always advertised that weird "LSD" album. It was a real letdown when I finally heard it.
@@RobertFithen we also have three exchange stores they are great! They have odd stuff! I had a guy look at some vinyl I had for sale today from Wisconsin, and he told me Indy was the rockabilly capital with many indie label pressings done here. I didn't know that but then again I don't listen to that I'm more of a classic rock / metal guy.
@@RobertFithen -- That seems to be an incorrect pronunciation. Here is Sade saying her name. She says in the video that people in the United States often pronounce her name "Shar-day." th-cam.com/video/YZSVjrdJ1A4/w-d-xo.html
Hand cannot erase. By steven wilson is great.
Also raven who refused to sing
Also, I totally agree about everything being a double LP now. Too expensive, too heavy, and takes up too much room in the collection.

I think it's highly underrated. The cover throws people off, I bet,

So I have started putting
records on the computer.
Let Love Rule is an awesome record. The rest eh. Like Justify My Love with Madonna
Man you scored with all that new type vinyl
would you be interested in selling the Lenny Kravitz record? i love that album

Robert, try listening to The Wildhearts. Been around since 1990. If you like a cross between The Beatles and Metallica you'll like these.
We used to play songs from "Earth Vs The Wildhearts" in college. Used to love "Suckerpunch" especially.
Just added The Fairest Of Them All to my Spotify list.
I've always been a succer for a good deal too, and have discovered a lot of great music that way.
Vinyl from the 1990s , correct?
If you haven't yet, getting Steven Wilson's "The Raven that Refused to Sing" and "Hand. Cannot. Erase." are musts. He keeps his same sound, but the songs have more structure.
Thanks! I've heard that Tame Impala have better albums than the one I got too
In case anything happens to
them, they'll be there.
Sir, back in the 1990s
I wanted to give up
playing records
when cds came out
but I stuck it out.
Just a thought... For future videos, could you position your camera so the album covers aren't cut in half?. Otherwise, keep up the good work.
Trader Buck's Flea Market? Sounds like a place to find some characters. Myself included. Six dollars a pop...
I'd clean house. I agree on your opinion on Double Albums. You're NOT into creepy dirty babydolls? That makes me want to listen to Dolly Parton!
That's exactly what Trader Buck's was!

Fithen!!!
Finally, someone in the VC that pronounces Sade correctly !!!
Are there videos of people saying "sade" like "blade"? I've got to check these out!
@@RobertFithen They pronounce it Shaw Day. I always forget which album it is, but one of them actually shows the correct pronunciation on the record label.
@@theTORTUGAZUL I remember my old cassette of "Diamond Life" had the pronunciation right on the spine in huge letters.
Even as low as $6 is still just a waste of $6 if you’re not that into it & you only play it once or twice, it’s just a case of he who dies with the most vinyl wins, I just don’t see the point
You could re-sell it or give it to someone and only be out $6 was my point.
Tame Impala isn't really a group. Kevin Parker tours with a band but records everything by himself

Thanks for the info. I will be definitely be checking more out.
Major score. I'm just starting to buy new vinyl. Some new artists and some reissues. Congrats.
Ha ha you don't like the coolest looking cover of the bunch. I woulda bought it for the cover alone.
I’ve been to Indianapolis a couple of times, I live in Indiana, sorry I don’t feel comfortable saying my town
I have often looked at the album covers advertised on old inner-sleeves and wanted to collect them all. Perhaps that's why I own several George Maharis albums. Great video. Thanks!

I've spent half my life collecting those compilations that Warner Brothers used to advertise on their inner-sleeves.
@@offthebeatentracks4515 I've got a few of those.
I'm from Indy you should have went to broad ripple and checked out Luna music and Indy cd and vinyl both are great huge record stores!
I went to the Karma stores. I definitely should have checked out Luna from what I've heard.
@@RobertFithen we also have three exchange stores they are great! They have odd stuff!

Shar-day? Chardonnay??
I like the video. I just wanted to point out that her name is Sade and pronounced "sha-day," not "shar-day".
Pronunciation (Shar-Day) is shown on the spine of her debut album. www.discogs.com/Sade-Diamond-Life/release/6606311
