“You don’t have to buy 1000s of records. Just records that you really, really want.” Good advice!
That’s true!
Well said!! I'm sayin this to my nephew whose just gettin into this hobby of collectin vinyl. Buy what interests u do'nt go crazy spendin your hard earned 💰 on music. I've been doin this since i was 16 now 61! He's into this new modern rock music some groups i've never heard of. I do like the seattle sound Pearl Jam/Soundgarden.
@@daniellaubach7544 you can always sell them, so in the end if you go nuts at some point in your life, the money is never completely lost.
I have 3 LPs - thats enough for me
Casey Jones I just only need a couple of records .Just albums I really like I’m trying to keep my collection moderately small
Been collecting records for 35 years, never stopped. While I miss the old days of a smaller group of diehards (in particular the late 80's to early 2000's), it is nice to see so many young people getting on board.
one of the young collectors here! started collecting in 2021, and realised instantly this would be a lifelong passion. It's absolutely brilliant.
@@thebigslimelive eh probably won’t be. Vinyl will die out again once the younguns realise how impractical it is
@@lmc3307 it’s impractical, sure, but it’s an incredible format. You get to own that music and art, the emotions and feelings along with it, it’s brilliant. Sure, Vinyl will probably not be that popular in the coming years, but I can assure you that a lot of people will stick to it.
@@thebigslimelive I have a 12,000 record collection but I’d never advise anyone to start. Prices are stupidly high at the moment , 2-3£ records years ago are now £100s. Greed had ruined the vinyl industry. Cd’s are at an all time low however and are a much more convenient format.
"The Tables Are Turning" is the most perfect title for a video about vinyl revival imaginable.
Pretty obvious if you think about it
Also the name of an old UK hip hop tune
After 25 years and major damage to the finances, I'm done with buying music but happy to watch videos/vlogs of people collecting records.
I love records..Best sound ever. And the format that last the longer. Vinyl is king.
Came here because this was a vinyl doc I'd not seen, and left in a worse mood thanks to Aaron and his copy of Grey Britain. Painful reminder that I still need that record in my life, but may have to forgoe paying rent for a month to acquire it. Thanks Aaron.
I buy records because in a weird way it demands me to listen. Everybody can own an mp3 that’s replicated thousands of times. There is no pride in owning a digital file. That limited splattered release that you’ve searched for is something to be proud of.
12inchRules the same for me too, it helps me focus on just one album. And I also have lots of music on my phone too 😊
It's not just records. It's a history.
Hogwarts. A History.
Two things that never cease to amaze me. People that have vinyl collections but play their records through garbage systems and people who man handle their records.
The way this dude is handling his records is stressing me out lol. He aint got no inner sleeves and just touching the record all crazy. My god.
I’ve been a club DJ for more then 20 years, when I began, we only used vinyl, I’ve got thousands of records and can assure you touching the surface of vinyl is perfectly ok, bare in mind I played my vinyl live to thousands of people and pushed the format to its limit. Touching the surface is fine.
@@stevenmcguinness4751 it's not. don't go near my records, ever
ab3000x Yeah, you’re right, wtf would a Professional DJ for 20 years know? Nothing about the versatility of Vinyl, which slip matts are best, how to set up and use the Technics 1210 to get the best results (the only Turntable worth owning), which brand of stylus gets the best sound quality, the best counterweight point, how to set the antislip, how to calibrate a turntables pitch.....Shall I go on?
@@stevenmcguinness4751 i figured you would tell me to use rubbing alcohol and a micro-fiber rag to clean my records... no need to go on, you clearly are a record god
Steven McGuinness i mean yeah but I dont plan on fucking up my record anyway so handling does matter to me
vinyl is HEAVEN...that music sounded GREAT.
Delusional...🙄🙄🙄
@@dictumobiter1365 Correct. You are delusional.
What people are missing is there is so much history put on vinyl. Outtakes. Test presding . Small sessions. Boots.Variation from original tracks that has and may never be seen or herd on CD Mp3 or any modern release .
You can say the same about cds too.
I have so many memories connected to my records like where I bought them, who was with me. It’s such an experience ❤️
I use CDs dvd and only got into vinyl collecting I do use streaming services to listen to a album to see if I like it before I buy a copy
A brilliant vinyl documentary, I especially like the very well thought out intro, really effective in the way it was filmed, great talent and a joy to watch :)
ellie jaye thank you for your kind words! I enjoyed making the intro especially!
These are some really hip old dudes. Fred Perry Shirt, tattoo's and records. Damn, I'm so going to end up like that!
Very good informational vid and really enjoyed watching. I have been buy records for 50 years now and I won’t ever stop, as it brings so much enjoyment to my life.
to each his (or her) own. I grew up with vinyl...it's all we had...inferior medium to digital, but there is the romantic aspect to "days gone by"...
Inferior? Hardly. Apart from convenience, it's superior in almost all ways imo
@@DuckAlertBeats "IMO" sez it all.
“NAGAOKA CART” good Japanese cart!
Loved this! And collecting records are so additive, I started a TH-cam channel to share my finds and collection and love the community I’ve discovered because of it, a very unseen bonus of collecting records. I wish to visit all these stores!
I love the final words! Perfect way to put it!
This is great, thanks for showing the potential of this great camera! I'm excited about getting mines soon!!
rhashad88 thanks! I had fun making it - the C100 provides some fantastic results. Always shocks me with how sharp it is for 1080p!
Personally, I prefer CDs. Records have bigger sleeves but they take up more space in a small house. CD is a compromise. Compact, some art, good sound.
Not even close though.
@@DuckAlertBeats Yeah cds miss out on that hiss, crackle and pop
Analog is king in my estimation. I love the other aspects of vinyl as well, the feel of handling albums, the artwork, collectability, etc..
but digital media can't even come close to matching the musicality and dynamics.
Delusional...🙄🙄🙄
There has always been a vinyl market in particular 75's in the Northern Soul community. And that's been going on for over 50 yrs.
Enjoyed watching this. Always loved vinyl and always had a soft spot for BPM too
the lengthmen thanks for watching :)
I've always said the awesome thing about my collection, and others as well, is that a significant part of my life story is just sitting right there. Without me even being around someone can come in my music room and without even knowing it hear about my first love, my lowest moment in life, how I feel about my grandmother, how I gout pumped up for games, my worst heartbreak, etc....just because they happen to listen to the very song/songs that sums up those moments. That is the true beauty of a record store is that it's simply BILLIONS of memories just sitting on the shelf waiting to be relived.
The best thing about vinyl records is the art work, I do miss that but anyone who believes pops, clicks and background noise sounds good is fooling themselves. I do like the guys comment put a cd in a lp folder, best of both worlds.
Clean your records and no worries. Lol. At least it's not compressed garbage streaming!
David W. The act of playing a vinyl record destroys it but I do agree with your take on compression, everything should be lossless
@@mikeomo3235 Most people don't want pops and clicks. A lot of the time, those are just dirt and dust deep in the grooves. Cleaning is paramount (and also varies a bit depending on who is recommending it)
@@Cthulhu013 You can get flac or wav and cd which is not compressed which I think sounds more how it was meant to sound as vinyl adds a lot of noise. Vinyl was good in it's day as we did not have what we have now.
John Carter de
That was good I Enjoyed that its nice to see a video about vinyl we could do with some more.
Really nice documentary! Thanks. I am going to say for others to watch this.
Thanks for the kind words. That's great. Share around as much as you'd like.
Thanks for that, really enjoyed it.
So cool to see my home town of Notts in this video
My beef with most record stores I visit in London at least, is they're all stuffed with re-issue sealed albums for the Instagram and coffee show off crowd, not a whole lot of second hand singles, as someone that spins early 90's HipHop I generally have to find what I want in other countries.
Gotta go to estate/yard sales. Preferably older folks.
Personally, I prefer CD’s over vinyl including sound but I think that is subjective to the listener. I respect people who collect vinyl including specific pressings. I owned vinyl from the 50’s-70’s but got into collecting CD’s. This is a great documentary I never thought vinyl would make a comeback like it has but I’m glad it did and hope that will continue. I hope it helps the artists financially and in getting their music out. I look at people who collect vinyl like people who collect art, or first editions/rare books - people who have a great love for creative works. If I ever collect vinyl I’d like to own the best pressings of the Beatles catalogue along with many jazz classics. I may prefer CD’s but a mint pressing of Sgt. Peppers on vinyl is far more impressive than a plastic jewel box. I would like to see a documentary about the newer HiFi gear and if that has improved since the vinyl comeback. I loved the old components/speakers/turntables.
Old/rare vinyl collections yes, but, new vinyl...🤣🤣🤣
I like cassettes because I'm an ocd weirdo and the hiss cancels out my tinnitus.
@@who_cares848 Whatever works for you👍
They blame the death of cds on streaming due to "convenience", yet to most inconvenient way to listen to music suddenly becomes the thing. I call bullshit. The whole truth is that the music industry doesn't want you to own cds. If you own a cd, you can rip it and make your own personal streaming platform. Ever hear of Plex? The bottom line is the powers that be want that monthly fee.
Looking this video in 2022 the guy at 6:08 and looking at the record stores that popped up again in my country and see more than 100+ releases a month on vinyl is just amazing!
The guy at 3:03, has his turntable that high up on a shelf. I made that mistake years ago, scratched a mint condition Alison Moyet's ALF debut album, because it slid out of my hands of the turntable high up on a shelf and ended up putting a damn big scratch in it, oooh! Gutted!
Vinyls here forever keen collector.
Ese sonido mecanico de la aguja de un tornamesas es lo maximo !!!!insuperable !!!!calido con textura......
awesome. great video. love LP'S
Just got my first vinyl, and I can't wait for the turntable to arrive, so stocked! But it's wrong to say the quality is better on vinyl. To the human ear, there is absolutely no difference in the audio quality between vinyl and digital, and vinyl has its downsides too in this regard (but again, not perceivable to the human ear).
For me, i think it will be the physical connection to the music. Knowing that what I'm hearing is coming from that record rotating and the stylus picking it.
aww man supper jelly of that mc5.....and that sleep nice
at 10.38..you nailed it..thanks
Vinyl is Heaven of Music Recording...PERIOD
Great editing
Great documentary.
Thanks Vinyl Dad!
~ The turntables are turning with records on them LIKE FOREVER AND EVERYWHERE. Hipsters be damned L.O.L.
Club DJs, country music enthusiasts. jazz purists, music-lovers that never acquiesced to CDs or digital sound, disco/funk/r&b/soul/house/techno fans, diehard record lovers: this is all so not about Caucasian men that love "rock" groups that look like them, you'd scarcely know it from the videos like this all over the internet. Beats Per Minute indeed. Cheers, DAVEDJ ~
You gonna list off all those genres and leave hip hop out??? Records were the epicenter of the scene and arguably kept it relevant!!! Cmon man lol
i like how the video editor really tryes to track the text to the record at the start
Great documentary
MrJoenaz thank you!
This video makes my USB stick jealous 😊
So much better than CD's
CDs are kind of....nothingness.. Feel instantly disposable to me
@@DuckAlertBeats Yeah keep telling yourself that, and keep buying them remastered, limited edition tangerine and purple coloured vinyl at ridiculous prices lol.
I have yet to hear an SACD that sounds as good as the original RCA living stereo classical vinyl
Records were great until about 12 years ago. Now a re-issue can be upwards of $48 for a regular album cut onto 2 separate Lp's (this is for monetary gain only) and it's a gamble if the pressing is worth a shit or not. Picture disks are another story, cool novelty but horrible audio. With all that said yes I still pay these ridiculous amounts and get all excited when a re-press is released. I just see the future repeating itself, when the cost of a CD was $24-$30 people stopped buying them and it killed the industry. There is plenty of demand, supply will not bring down the cost due to record company greed as we've all witnessed in the past.
Ahh yes prices have gone up but that doesn't stop us buying them as it's addictive!
~ You must not have any regular record stores in your area. Check Discogs. I got an Aretha Franklin album recently in VG condition for less than it had cost in 1967. Plus, 45s are always cheaper than buying the whole LP. If you are new to this interest, you need to catch up before commenting on a public forum. Cheers, DAVEDJ ~
DAVID WOLF I live in one of the biggest cities in the US. Plenty of stores around offering new and used. Discogs... hit or miss but pricing mostly ranges from $30 to “the skies the limit” for mint/new condition + shipping. Yes I’ve picked up some good deals on there but it’s not commonplace. The best resource I’ve found is Craigslist when someone doesn’t know what they’ve got and just want to dump a few hundred albums.
Any time I pay $45 for a re-issue it ALWAYS sounds like fucking shit ... it's like the more expensive lp's cost , the worse they sound...
I wont spend more than 25 bucks on a new album or repress.
I love vinyl.
Simple fix. Put CD in a LP sleeve. Best of both worlds.
CDs are never quite the same!
Include a cd or bluray audio cd with the lp!
LP with download code is enough for me.
They actually did that with a rectangular longbox back when cds first were marketed. The boxes were shaped in this fashion to accommodate the space of former vinyl bins and to prevent theft. There's actually a video where at Tower records, clerks were stripping the boxes and just throwing them all away as some sort of green madness. I think they also wanted to state how ridiculously small the product looked but it set a trend.
Now that my nephew is new to this record collecting, i'm tryin to get into what i listened to in the 70's BTO Aerosmith Grand Funk RR Peter Frampton & so on.
Daniel Laubach how about the great Electric Light Orchestra
Nice post
thought it was a Fallout commercial in the beginning lol
I'll take that as a compliment!
1:17 Your copy of The Wall sounds very different from mine.
I was looking for a comment like this one. Thanks for doing it for me 😊
Hi.. may i know the track title? Thx!
Records absolutely sound better.
Only on a good system
I've probably purchased over 100 vinyl LPs, 33 rpm and 45 rpm within the last 5 years. Zero CDs have been purchased in that same time frame. Nothing is better than vinyl.
I miss the sleeve artwork and liner notes on LPs for sure but as for the actual vinyl record sounding better than digital no way! I stopped buying vinyl at the end of the nineties because the sound quality and standard of the pressings had become abysmal. That has still not changed as when the music industry retooled for digital they dropped analogue vinyl record production standards and quality control like a hot rock. Today it is considered just another carrier medium and essentially what you are buying is a fully digitally mastered recording transcribed onto an analogue vinyl record as an afterthought. This just does not make sense at all as it will always sound better in full digital the way it was mastered and intended to be heard. I cannot see why they just cannot issue a CD inside the 12 inch record sleeve with a card adapter mount to hold it and a one time download link to a higher resolution 24 bit flac file to bypass the limitations of the 16 bit red book audio CD standard.
Vinyl sound is very overrated, i do not miss them crackle, snap and pops one iota
@@Ridersonthestorm8899 you said it! All that faffing about with stylus defluffing and record clamps to hold warped pressings flat i can happily live without.
I think all this vinyl adoration from the Crosley Cruiser set is a hankering for simpler times gone by? Life comes in colour now as well as B&W and nothing can be reduced to simple binary choices anymore.
I think Jimmy Page and Neil Young were bang on the nail remastering their entire back catalogues in digital and the legacy of their music lives on and breathes in a new space as a consequence of it.
If like me you are progressive in your musical tastes you will also like musical gendres like Rap, Hip Hop and Drum & Bass. You no longer have to have the bass lines lumped dead centre in the mix anymore due to the 'groove flood' limitations of analogue transcription engineering.
Suddenly bass lines can sound really deep, detailed and engaging taking full advantage of the extra headroom and stereo seperation digital provides. It is almost like listening afresh with the earmuffs removed such is the marked difference.
Clearly the pro analogue camp are living on nostalgia and tinned old hippy farts if they really think there is any life left in the spiral scratch. Wake up FFS! The emporer wears new clothes.
made a fortune on discogs over the years
@@thefreestylefrEaK i started off with selling vinyls then realized theres a ton of money to be made on rare CDs, cassettes and even laserdiscs
that title is amazing
Thank you 🙌
I was on holiday and my cellar flooded. We have a rooms down their with sofa, tv etc.... but my record collection lives down there too. The sofa, carpet, furniture was ruined and I was worried my record collection sitting in a few boxes on the floor was gone too....lucky the boxes were waterproof. lol.. didnt care about any of the other stuff only that my collection was safe..
Glad the collection was safe! Most important thing!
Lovely vid. Been collecting for 30 years on and off. The store looks great! Where is it?
Thank you. You must have a good collection! The store is in Derby. They have a great selection.
It sucks that vinyl is so popular now I understand that's the way it is but when you spend 20-30 $40 on vinyl you would at least like it to be quiet and tick free when you try to bring it back when it's really bad they give you a hard time!!!!😣
What is the song he plays at the beginning?
Cool video. I love it. Where did you get the music for the video?
Thanks! I just searched Creative Commons for free to use music :)
@@BigStoreyProductions don't you still have to give music credit in your discription
@@goldenvinylspin I believe in the video or description is fine
could someone tell me what the one guys turntable is sitting on. I can tell it's to reduce vibrations but i'm not sure what you would call that.
That is commonly known as a Turntable Plinth. You can get them made of either wood or the more expensive ones of graphite stone etc! Help a lot with reduced vibrations!
He’s using an ikea or the like cutting board with stick on feet
Imagine how much better the music would sound if you had speakers that are more capable than a couple of tissue boxes.
Yup, thousands vinyl, but, 💩box music player=delusional hipsters...😉😉😉
P-Viva-C all the way !!
I can buy some common vinyl albums at guitar center for the low price of $24.
Discogs is more efficient than record fairs and stores. So much time on limited selection, when you can find exactly what you want online.
Not particularly. In terms of condition Discogs is very "hit and miss" while in stores you can at least check it out before buying. But both have their pros and cons.
yeah and the fun part of discogs besides paying twice the records price mininum, is you get to pay twice the price again in shipping. 😅
me watching anything record-related: please talk about DJ!!!!!!!
id like to use a very small clip from this for a sun records video im working on
Savage Squad Exploring sure no problem. Just make sure to credit me in both your video and description. Cheers
When CDs came along Vinyl junkies just went Wow another music source and added them to their reel to reel, cassettes 8 tracks and 78rpm sounds. Never trust a man who isn’t ruled by Sound The Fugs!
Hi guys... May I know what's the title track played in 01.19 & 04.28 ? Thanks so much! Yeah keep spinning!!! 🎶
Hi, title track is called Roadtrip by Nicolai Heidlas. Thanks for watching!
@@BigStoreyProductions Thanks for your reply. 👍😄
@@samtan6966 no problem! The second song I used is called Good Times by Nicolai Heidlas :)
what's the first song name?
Help me out here. Why would someone pay $30 for a new copy of "Born To Run" when any decent used record store has a mint condition original for around $7. That's my impression of "Record Day" records.
Because there are so many mugs out there Mark who eat this crap up.
Aborted 🤘
Cool shirt as well, I shall go and check out Abhorrent Decimation!
That Aborted record was the first vinyl record I ever bought too, though I've never played it as I don't own a record player, and truthfully, I don't actually enjoy that music any more, so I should probably sell it haha.
Different Sound?...Does he mean all the Hiss and Continuous CRACKLE...Give me CD any day
6:00 What vinyl collector holds them like this?!
Painful!
Reissues on vinyl seems big these days
who else is parioiod of their collection burning lol I have about 4k records not all of them are special but still
Name of the song that starts playing at 1:19??
Roadtrip by Nicilai Heidlas I believe
"In the Flesh" by Pink Floyd
Ah, 1:10 my OCD... That record is filthy!
The crackle sound effect was added afterwards! The records are regularly cleaned usually!
Why aren't companies making new affordable stereo receivers.
@@thefreestylefrEaK someone with a business acumen here should think about starting a new American business it would be a major hit.
Look up ...NOBLE RECORDS (USA) on You Tube for a complete guide to record collecting,what to look for ,advice, types of music to collect etc... I got loads of good info from there !
how long will vinyl last? thanks
Who knows! Only the future will tell that!
Do you think how long individual record can last, or how long will vinyl records last as a medium?
I have records from the 1950's and 1960's that still plays perfectly fine without any crackle (after cleaning).
Vinyl is Final.
the younger folks are realizing quality over convenience once you hear it on vinyl you will notice what you are missing with streaming, cd's, earbuds, bluetooth etc. Vinyl Lives!!
Yeah all those clicks, jumps and crackles
Cant beat them.
@@Ridersonthestorm8899 my fluance table RT81 has not pops or crackles and if you clean the record before and after use you won't have that issue. The vinyl is the better full spectrum sound you don't get on cd/streaming
British guy with a Cowboys helmet 🤔
That guy must have really bad-sounding records - NO INNER SLEEVES! YIKES!
There are no videos online ''proving'' vinyl sounds better lol
His voice sounds like Neil Tennant of the Pet Shop Boys
I loved your system aNd all...but DIED when i seen you put the needle down on that dirty ass record.
The records are cleaned with a vacuum pump cleaner along with special fluids so it removes all of the lose dirt from them. Trust me, the guy looks after them well.
@@BigStoreyProductions what are the record turntables used in these parts of the video? 1:00-1:15 and 3:45. Any information would be greatly appreciated!
if you can please shed some light and give me some information on those turntables. It would be greatly appreciated. Also, what is the official name of the BPM store? To be able to look it up. Any information would be greatly appreciated
@@johncomley1098 Hi John, thanks for the comment.
The first turntable is a 'Nottingham Analogue Anna' and the 2nd one you mention is a Project Essential 2.
The shop is literally called BPM Derby. Hope this helps!
So what, is the stylus and the equipment yours? Get over it, I've played dirty records plenty of times and played a brand new or almost new record right after the dirty record without cleaning my stylus and guess what? I never had a single issue.
I really like my vinyl, but that "art" at 3:25 is just disturbing - and disturbed.
That's the beauty of it.
Joe garage😁
...will NEVER go back to scratchy, noisy vinyl and antiquated turntables.
If it's not on CD, it's NOT FOR ME!
And no one gives a fuck!
trpjet999 :
I agree i hate these problems vinyl records always have but i have to admit they sound great .
For me CDs it is what best to collect music albums i love the crystal clear pure noiseless sound : - )
Look guys : What it pleases us what it gives us happiness is what it matters
I have boxes and boxes of vinyls, cds, tapes, videos, dvds and books which I regret collecting now that I keep tens times as much culture on a Hard Drive...hoarders still roam the earth but I'm very glad I have knocked that habit
The is no culture on a Hard Drive.
What exists on a hard drive can be gone in an instant. It is NOT REAL. Buy physical media. it is tangible and lasts forever
@@d.a.thorndike8772 Let's all be realistic here. If you leave it on only one drive, yeah, it can vanish just like that. However, it will definitely last longer and remain a clearer reproduction of the music if you do it right. I.e. put it in lossless quality and put it on 2 or 3 drives for backup.
I’ll take your records off your hands free of charge
