Cheers man! Thanks for checking out the vid. It was a pretty "basic" pick up, couldn't actually be more obvious, Mungo Jerry's In the Summer Time. Didn't own it and though it would be a good excuse to pick up the Japanese picture sleeve single! Have a great weekend!
I’ve spent way too much money at Red Ring over the years. Recently picked up fully autographed copies of the Talking Heads’ first two albums there. But the best shop in Tokyo, IMHO, is right around the corner: Vinyl Japan
Thanks for the comment! Yes, I can tell I need to create another monthly budget specifically for Red Ring Records. Autographed copies of first two Talking Heads records?!?! INSANE!!! How cooooooo!! DANG DOOD! I don't know about Vinyl Japan, despite knowing about 7 other record shops in that little pocket of Shinjuku! Adding this one to my radar - thanks for the tip! I will report back when I can!
For sure I will do! I wonder if I would ever run into Henry Rollins there. I would probably be too intimidated to talk to him. So cool I will definitely check it out!
@@tokyorecordstyleAnother cool thing about Komatsu-san at Red Ring is he always throws in something extra related to the album you buy: a concert flyer, an old ticket, etc.
@@project_random That is super coo! Dude seems extremely cool and not it in for any other reason than to share musical passion and appreciation. Maybe we should meet up there sometime!
Always great to lean into the "learned ones" who are literally fountains of information to learn from. Looking forward to seeing this mystery pickup!

@@tokyorecordstyle Henry Rollins practically lives at Vinyl Japan when he’s in Tokyo. Fantastic owners. Definitely check it out!

I was wondering if you got your 7!
Thanks for dropping by! I did score it, and one more! I'll be talking about in a video soon! Best from Tokyo!
