Hey Mark-Fantastic collection that was extremely well taken care of. I love finding records in in such beautiful condition. On the Jackie Lomax LP you'll find a song called "Sour Milk Sea", written by George Harrison. This was a contender for the White Album at the time but didn't make it. If you are not aware, the song is nearly a full-on Beatles recording, with George Harrison on guitar, Paul McCartney on bass and Ringo on drums, along with Jackie on guitar. It's a great rocker! The Police "Synchronicity" may be pressed on translucent vinyl. Hold it up to a strong light and you will know if you got one of those copies.
Hi Jeff, Synchronicity is on purple vinyl! I’m going to have to play the Jackie Lomax album; it sounds like it might be a good listen.. I know nothing about that artist. It’s still exciting to come across a collection in such wonderful condition.
Hi Jack, thanks so much for stopping by. Brian is a great guy. It was quite a collection. I don’t come across those often. I subscribed to your channel a while back.
There is a section in that Carlos and Buddy LP that I used to needle drop over and over back in the day. Congrats on "Rock Of Ages" Wow ! Easter.. that clean.. This is what makes collecting fun ! Beautiful Rascals copies.. I have my signed "Groovin" 45 copy from you up on my display. Super clean Booker T. I passed on that one at Bill's.. not clean enough. Lucifer might be one of the best ones of the bunch, although these albums look like they were just bought from the record store back in the 60's and 70's. Easybeats is unreal to have that clean ! Watching the rest..
Thanks, Jt. I just listened to the American Breed and the Easybeats. I’ll be keeping both of those titles. One forgets how incredible the horn arrangements are on those early Chicago albums. There are so many great bands from the 60s and 70s that I am not familiar with. I’ll defer my questions to you🙂
I was gonna mention Chicago II and Chicago III. Glad you're listening to them, and you gave me II that I was missing. I love those Russians on TH-cam Leonid & Friends that cover Chicago perfectly !
Wow that Easter album looked fantastic. Some very clean looking r3cords. Quicksilver album always is beat up , looks amazing. What a great looking collection. I think you need to collect all the Police Syncronicity album variations Mark
All I can say is incredible Mark. Most look like you just pulled the shrink. Pretty rare to find anything on Invictus.The mirror on the Uriah album is minty mint. How they stayed in that condition without outer sleeves is beyond me. Must have been fun flipping through his collection. Cheers.
I had a blast! I should have taken them all. Seeing albums of that age in those conditions made me re-think the use of poly outer sleeves. Have a great Father's Day, Jack!
Love the shirt!! Those are the best kind of collectors to come across. Beautiful Rock of Ages! RL even better! Love that Santana album! Jam Factory cool psych funk diddy. Henry is Man-Cini! The Queen of Punk always a winner 🏆 The Cryin’ Shames is a cool listen. You’ll dig it! That Stones! Cold Blood 🩸 instant mini collection. I love Lydia Pence too! Great job Bringing home the treasures!
Thanks, Steve. I haven’t had a score like this in quite some time. queen of punk. I love it. Rock of Ages is a spectacular sounding album. I need to fall in to a jazz collection. 🙃 I think I have all of the Cold Blood titles at this point. What a voice. Have a good week.
cool stuff mark. thats a great bob marley album. wasnt there something about Synchronicity too where some (or maybe a lot) were dark purple vinyl. i remember hearing that only recently and looking at my copy. i cant tell if its dark purple or black.
Mark - what an amazing score! Huge fan of The Rascals myself, and have their first four releases in mono and stereo. But, my Once Upon A Dream copies are missing that rare paper insert. Kudos! Great stuff all around, and I've been looking for that John Mayall Laurel Canyon for some time now. Santana, the Cryin' Shames, Lydia Pence...and even the Association (groovy!). Looking forward to seeing the rest!
Hi, Ed. Groovin’ sounds fantastic in mono. This collection has given me the opportunity to explore lots of 70s and 60s music that I probably would not have purchased at retail $. Lydia Pence has a powerful voice. Patti Smith Group⭐️
Since you cleaned the records you might to replace the old inner sleeves also with good poly inner sleeves. You are putting clean records into dirty sleeves. Plus get some 3mil outer sleeves also.
Hi Mark. I wish I had a co-worker wanting to off-load their pristine record collection ... I've never heard of Jam Factory, but the cover would have piqued my interest too ... Jackie Lomax is a Liverpool legend. He played with the Undertakers in the early 60s. There's a well-known bit of film showing a queue outside of the Cavern. Everyone automatically assumes it's for the Beatles, but they were queuing for the Undertakers. I saw the Undertakers live just a few years ago. I was hoping Jackie Lomax would be playing with them, as he used to sit in with the band when he came over to the UK. That album 'Is This What You Want?' is a classic ... The Young Rascals are on the cover of the latest issue of the UK music magazine Shindig ... I love 'Just Dropped In (To See What Condition My Condition Was In)'.
Carl, I hope you are doing well. Thank you for all of the info on Jackie Lomax, I’ve had a chance to listen to the album; it’s really interesting. I’m going to look for the Cavern film clip on TH-cam. I have a couple of 45s by the Undertakers. Unchain My Heart - I’m not sure if it’s the same band. Cheers
@@mad4vinyl802 It's a different Undertakers (from Texas according to Discogs) that did 'Unchain My Heart'... Just checked, and I think it's probably a photo I'm thinking of rather than a film clip.

I love the inserts and i started going for album art only ......most of my records were probably only played five times or less ....
I imagine that your collection is in pristine shape, being played so little.
@@mad4vinyl802 the chances that any 45 will ever be played again other than I Am The Walrus are .....Infinitesimal
Great stuff! Especially those Easybeats and Lucifer albums. Everything looks to be in such great shape. Thanks for sharing!
The Lucifer album is really good. I’ve been after that one for a while. Lots of new stuff to listen to. Thanks Dave.
Hi Mark - These records really do look like they are in pristine condition. You got some heat in this collection!
Thanks, Brian. Definitely a great score.
Hey Mark, was sent your way by Brian at Embryonic Robot. What a score! Loads of great stuff and in great condition too. Enjoy the records, Jack

Hi Steve, yes this copy is purple. I should take an inventory of how many purple copies there are in my collection. The Marley album is great.

Thanks, Bill. I do protect the jackets with three mil outer sleeves. I never gave much thought to the inner sleeves. Good point.
@@mad4vinyl802 then you can keep the original with the record also.

I ran completely out of space ......ive been collecting since Let It Be ....my first album .......its a GROOVY HOBBY 😉
That was a great title to start your collection with ! I’m thankful that I have a basement to store my records. 🙂
Is that Police a QUIEXII translucent copy?
Dark purple vinyl?
@@mad4vinyl802 yup, nice!
That Malo album is great. Very Satanaesque. I believe his cousin plays on it.
I think you’re correct. It definitely has a Santana vibe. That is why I love it.👍
