We want thank BLK Vinyl in Austin, Texas for letting us into their shop for this TOTAL experiment that we had a blast making and sharing with all of you!
@@TheTexasTrailhead Thank you so much for the recommendation. We wanted to give you a shout out by name during the video but couldn't find your comment in time. BLK is an awesome find!
Another great video! Only a few years ago but the prices were a real blast from the past. Kristi being self conscious about her record handling was priceless!
I just watched your first episode. As you said in a previous video, you and Kristi were certainly put here on this earth for one another! Fabulous chemistry between the two of you. Felt like we (the audience) were tagging along watching you shop. And it was great that you included comments from the store owner as well. I appreciate your wide ranging musical tastes. And there's nothing wrong with loving Flash Dance:) Congratulations on a great first episode, and best wishes for the two of you on your upcoming marriage!
Thank you so much! We had a blast making this episode and already have plans for future ones that we hope to bring you all very soon. Thank you for all the well wishes and support! Kristi says she appreciates your support of her Flashdance purchase!
@@andrewrobinsonreviews Turnstiles is one of my favorites. My favorite Billy Joel albums are the ones he recorded before becoming a megastar. But I like them all:)
Awesome, awesome video! Thanks for taking us viewers along for the adventure. Awesome store. I don't know if my wife would let me go there, because afterwards we would have take out a second mortgage on the house! The classic rock section would leave with me.
No hates on Flashdance from me Kristi. Even up until this very day it still ranks as one of my favorite movie soundtracks. Love the songs on it as much now as when it first came out almost 40 years ago. It went on to sell 20 million copies worldwide!!! Plus it was nominated for 9 and won 3 Grammy Awards!!! We aren't the only two people who love it.
Hey Andrew, I'm an old school audiophile going back to the early 70's - in the biz off and on till '83. I've got around1200 records including a couple hundred 78's that people just started giving me because they assume "I collect records". (Also about 20,000 digital files) Anyway, I think you're a breath of fresh air - I read and watch all the usual rags and videos, but I've recommended some of your videos to non Audiophile friends. Grew up in San Antonio, went to UT Austin for a year - now live in Seattle. But your videos make me want to come back to Austin sometimes, although I have a decent record shop a block away. Keep up the good work!
Loving this video. This captures so much. The Austin record store scene, the interaction between you two, the way you discover music together, etc. So much going on. Looked like a wonderful day record shopping.
Lovely video, again. I loved how you put the guy that runs the store in it and how great questions he was asked. And the guy is really cool. So is your wife! Thanks for another great video, it's really seeable how much effort and work is put into it. LOVING IT!!! :)
Awesome idea for a video, 'cause I love me some crate diggin'. Bargains can occasionally be found if you have the patience. I recently found an original 1961 pressing of Cannonball Adderley & Bill Evans - Know What I Mean for $1.00 in near-new condition already inside an anti-static sleeve and the album itself was also in an outer sleeve. Keep it up; I love this type of video. As for the prices that I saw on some of those records, I can only say that I wish BLK Vinyl would open up here.
We're beginning to think that BLK Vinyl is a very special place indeed as people are commenting positively on their pricing. Maybe it's cheaper to visit Austin and buy all the records than shop in their home town?
Another great video, cheers! I love rummaging through charity shops here in Cornwall, England - it's amazing to see what people have got rid of. I think my best find in recent years was a copy of Hunky Dory for £5! Keep up the great work guys.
Really appreciate the quality of the audio in the record store. On my computer speakers the background music was clearly coming from my right and back. Felt like I was there. Keep doing these it was really interesting.
Thanks for doing this video and sharing it with the vinyl community(thrilled you found a Charlie Parker LP right off the get go!). It’s nice to see something like this, hope to see more and keep up the great work!🎧-Chris & Beth
I love the way you filmed the scenes with that jazzy music in the background. This channel is maybe the only one that guides and helps the ''budget'' audiophiles... all of us. Keep the good work.
Legit just scrolled back through the archives to find this as I’ve never seen your early early videos. Loved the way you two filmed this, seeing the fun you can have walking into an old record store to find some vinyl gems or one you didn’t know existed. I was hoping you were going to film Kristi handling the vinyl as I was about to learn for myself how not to handle them. I definitely wouldn’t have blown the dust off as if it was a Nintendo 64 game though haha Really enjoyed this one guys
Please keep this series going! Great video! I too have an exclusive album like that White Album. My copy of R.E.M.'s "Reconstruction of the Fables" was owned by a Katie Gibbs. : )
Hi Andrew and Kirsty, really enjoying your channel and these older $5 finds are great. Interesting at 4m 30s I saw Aly Bain, being from Shetland as he is, thought it amazing to see a record of his in Austin Texas. Bryan.
Just when I thought I couldn't love your channel and videos anymore you upload this absolute gem. So many giggles and nods of the head and really felt as though as I was there looking through the records with you. Agree with your appraisal of Hall & Oates. They are one of my favourite ever bands and when I finally got to see them about five years ago I was really disappointed. The performance felt as if they were only there to collect their paycheck. Which is a bit weird as I can't imagine they would need the money with all the royalty cheques coming in. Oh well... On the subject of MP3s and other audio files, I've never paid for them and never will. I've collected records since I was able to afford to buy them in my teens and will happily pay for the physical product. I want to be able to touch the record and pull it out of its sleeve and read the liner notes on the back cover and/or sleeve. Just my two dollars worth for what it's worth :-). P.S. I'm sorry to say but there is no better way of storing and searching vinyl records in a store. You just need to work on your technique ;-).
@fairdesful - completely agree with your H&O's take...it was such a disappointing show. Missed notes & bad off key singing the entire performance. Thanks for watching!
This afternoon, riding in a taxi down here in Guayaquil Ecuador, the radio was playing "She's a Maniac..." from the Flashdance Soundtrack! Still popular all over the world:)
I missed this video somehow, but glad I did an archival find. I bought the Flashdance soundtrack when on a bin diving excursion. It was there, went back to it twice, bought it as a "guilty pleasure", cost 99cents. It is in great condition. I've only played it twice since, but glad it's in my collection of movie soundtracks. Kristi, sorry you had a horrible experience at your Hall & Oats concert. I had the same at a Yes concert at Madison Square Garden. That experience damaged me from any other live rock concert except when I had to go back for George Harrison's Concert for Bangladesh. But still, I only go to live jazz performances at intimate music venues. I also found the Stevie Wonder, Songs in the Key of Life album, Andrew, while thrift store bin diving for $1.50. Again, excellent condition. So good! I smiled through this entire video. You're a dynamic couple. BLK is a great throwback to the "vintage" record shops, and it doesn't seem as though they're trying to take advantage of the resurgence of this format by price gouging. Thanks for sharing your adventure, and BLK for accommodating you.
Should've gotten Billy Joel Cold Spring Harbor... my friends dad growing up was Billy's piano teacher and I'd go over his house and Billy would come over and jam. Heard Billy play Piano Man in my friends living room... seriously. CSH is Billy's first LP and the recording studio recorded his voice at the wrong speed. Sounds almost like a chipmunk. It is an awesome LP with amazing songs even if Billy's voice sounds high.
8:40 I once bought a lot of interesting albums with a stamp "D. H. Burgen" on the back of the album covers from my local Salvation Army Thrift Store. He collected lots of Bossa Nova, Latin, and exotica albums and he had great taste, so a big shout out to D.H. Burgen wherever you are. See? You can't say that when one simply streams or downloads an album. :)
I love me an album that’s under 5 bucks. Sometimes it’s tough choosing to get an original in good condition of an iconic album, or getting a bunch of great gems for under 5. Will stop by that shop the next time I’m in ATX.
A favorite live album of mine from that classic rock era is Humble Pie Rockin the Fillmore. A great candidate for gear reviews. And that Stevie Wonder record you showed is a must have. Love the authenticity and unrehearsed feel of your content. Bravo.
@@andrewrobinsonreviews Thanks man, it was quite successful. Brooklyn is a goldmine for Disco 12" singles, which is what I mainly collect. I have heard great things about Austin's music scene so a visit is in order sometime soon! Cheers
Hi Andrew, I've been watching and enjoying your videos for quite a while now, so I thought I'd look back and see what your earlier content was like, and I LOVED this video! Kristi seems absolutely lovely, and it's great to see the chemistry between the two of you! I split with my wife last year, so I hope you don't mind my living slightly vicariously (and not in a creepy way, I hasten to add!) through your videos. I like the way you personalise your content and you're never afraid to admit when a view you've held was wrong, so keep up the great work...and more of these out-and-about slices of life...please?
It’s stuff like this just makes me want to just travel around the world and buy records. That simple. One day....one day.... P.S awesome video, looking forward to more episodes.
I so miss my Clearaudio turntable and the usual ritual that comes with vinyl. Great music choices as I'm a huge rock and jazz fan. You handled that vinyl just fine Kristi.
Anyone who likes Peter Gabriel is alright in my book! I picked up a vinyl copy of Peter Gabriel 2 (just like the one in this video) last year, great record!
Awesome finds! I had to watch this twice because I kept focusing on the copy of Lee Morgan's "Search for the New Land" on the wall. My childhood best friend lives in Austin, so a stop at BLK when I'm in town will be a must. Great video!
Great vid, can't beat vinyl shopping! The best vinyl I have found so far for a bargain price is Rumours for £5, which is $6.60 according to Google. You wonder how many owners it had before; it plays perfectly too.
Within the first 10 seconds Keith Lough appeared I immediately saw a gem in the right corner, behind him. It's Lonnie Mack's 'Strike like lightning'. (with special guest SRV) I sure wouldn't mind getting that for only $ 5,- !! 🙂
Always watched over TV-speakers ... since I use a Fire-TV stick I run the sound over my receiver ... and finally realized there us music running in the shop background 😳
Here were I live the store record has a section of 2.50 each but if you buy 5 or more you can get for 2 and I found so many great records. BTW I have flash dance too hahaha! I like it!
Green Sleeves = What Child is This....cheap Foreigner is everywhere..kinda like Herb Alpirt who must have been just GIVING albums away ..that Charlie Parker...HELL YES! ... I grew up with vinyl, I'm old , I love it and I dont baby it like some. Vinyl is kinda tough...you did awesome....Love u guys , great channel.
awesome episode. I like the taking a chance on an album by the cover alone I've wanted to try it myself. I wanted that Stevie wonder album too, I found an original of innervisions for 3.99 at Zia records before
This is the third of your videos that I watched and I began to fall in love with your channel, I immediately click the subscribe button! Im your new subscriber from the other side of your world.... the Philippines! Love both of you!
Turnstiles is a good album. I just ordered The Stranger online to replace my original copy. The $5 LP is a rare find in my neck of the woods, unfortunately. Basically I can spend $7/8 ti $15 for an old record in decent condition or North of $20 for reissues. You've got a great place right there with BLK Vinyl!
Beach Boys, "15 Big Ones," named like a "best of" but actually refers to the number of years the band had been together. Most known for the "Brian's Back" marketing campaign that shot the otherwise crummy album up to No. 8 on the charts. The more you know ...
Interesting tid bit, I just sold my 20+ year old mint condition copy of Michael Jackson History 3 x Vinyl Box Set for NZ$250 (approx US$171) I was amazed with all the controversy of the recent documentary, people are still willing to buy MJ's music. I will always listen to MJ as he made some amazing pop music. Music lives on after the person has gone, good bad or otherwise, good music lasts
Kristi and I were just talking about this. Can a person/listener separate the performance from the performer? Should they? I don’t pretend to have the answer but it’s an interesting debate. Thanks for watching.
I'm so happy to read all the love for my Flashdance album pick. I really thought I was going to be schooled over that one. Thanks so much for watching!
The reason she has never heard any of the songs from Burnin' Sky is because that album along with Running with the Pack, weren't very good. I would love to find some Moby Grape. For those who have not heard of Wishbone Ash, they are definately worth listening to. Their first album was in the back ground.
@@andrewrobinsonreviews It's none of my business but does she ever get mad? Like really pissed off mad? It's hard to believe if she does. It might even be more adorable, lol. Merry Christmas.
The video did not started yet but from the name of the video i must say you are realy lucky in Slovakia in Bratislava (main city) we got sadly only 3 record shops and cheapest record is 20 uero + not any of them selling old used records
Nice video, BLK looks like a great store. We had a store in town but sadly it didn't last. Dumb question, but does BLK sell CDs? I seen what looked like an upstairs and thought maybe there was more music up there. The album that says Rock n Roll Nights is a Bachman Turner Overdrive album, of the same title. I bought a CD boxset of BTO's albums for some reason, "Heartaches" is a decent tune but the rest is not so great. Great video, hope you two do a second one!
Hi there - greetings from Singapore - Love your channel. Anyway - listened to this video on my MacBook Pro 15 inch built-in speakers during my work from home day, I kept on checking my actual hifi speakers behind me to see if anything else was on as I was getting this background music that sounds like it was coming from behind me - how did you do this? was this intentional? that is actually very cool!!
Delightful video...So I need a to find a record place in Irving,TX area like you have in too cool for school Austin,TX. I spend around $300 for vinyl or more at BestBuy and I'm about to go there now! I'm an addict and need a more affordable vinyl fix...
My dad gave me all his records, including a sealed copy of Songs in the Attic. I’m assuming it’s sealed because he just never listened to it. Not that he was saving it or anything. Now, I’m not particularly into Billy Joel, so the question is: do I even open it at this point??
I miss this type of video that you used to do. Are you still buying vinyl these days? What albums have you been listening to during the Covid 19 pandemic?
We're doing most of our vinyl shopping these days on Amazon. Shopping in person isn't really worth the risk. I think our last purchases were amzn.to/35zn81X and amzn.to/34JOS1w.
Andrew Robinson it is all coming back to me now. True Lies with Arnold. That is up there as one of my favourite 80’s action flicks. You made a cameo in that movie? If not must have been some other work of yours that triggered my spider sense maybe spy kids behind the scenes interviews. That is cool I dig the vinyl content.

@@TheTexasTrailhead Thank you so much for the recommendation. We wanted to give you a shout out by name during the video but couldn't find your comment in time. BLK is an awesome find!
If you're ever in Chicago check out Reckless Records! Awesome store.

Never apologize for things that make you happy, I don't believe in stuff like "guilty pleasures". Good music is good music.

Love $5 finds! Totally enjoy the format. Have to say, Kristi is absolutely refreshing and is a great compliment to you. What a great team.
There's no content on this channel that I miss more than these episodes. Thank you. I happen to think she's great too.
Both of you are so awesome keep up the great vids
Here for Kristi, awesome personality....
☺️☺️☺️
Me too.
Hi Andrew and Kirsty, really enjoying your channel and these older $5 finds are great. Interesting at 4m 30s I saw Aly Bain, being from Shetland as he is, thought it amazing to see a record of his in Austin Texas.
Bryan.
Just when I thought I couldn't love your channel and videos anymore you upload this absolute gem. So many giggles and nods of the head and really felt as though as I was there looking through the records with you.
Agree with your appraisal of Hall & Oates. They are one of my favourite ever bands and when I finally got to see them about five years ago I was really disappointed. The performance felt as if they were only there to collect their paycheck. Which is a bit weird as I can't imagine they would need the money with all the royalty cheques coming in. Oh well...
On the subject of MP3s and other audio files, I've never paid for them and never will. I've collected records since I was able to afford to buy them in my teens and will happily pay for the physical product. I want to be able to touch the record and pull it out of its sleeve and read the liner notes on the back cover and/or sleeve. Just my two dollars worth for what it's worth :-).
P.S. I'm sorry to say but there is no better way of storing and searching vinyl records in a store. You just need to work on your technique ;-).

2:23 Bachman turner overdrive I love the title track first time I heard it I listened to it nearly every day for a month
Rock N' Roll Nights is by Bachman Turner Overdrive.
SQDLVR Without Randy Bachman. Rob, his brother is in there though.
@@TheTop40hub Thanks! I didn't know that!
8:57 I love the 'Flashdance' soundtrack album for the main song "What A Feeling" and especially for the instrumental love theme. :)
These videos are great. Only got recommended them this week. Anyway best get back to work or the boss (me) will have to have a word.
Great vid, can't beat vinyl shopping! The best vinyl I have found so far for a bargain price is Rumours for £5, which is $6.60 according to Google. You wonder how many owners it had before; it plays perfectly too.
That is a good deal! I know I paid WAY more for my used copy of Rumors. Thanks so much for sharing and for watching!
Within the first 10 seconds Keith Lough appeared I immediately saw a gem in the right corner, behind him. It's Lonnie Mack's 'Strike like lightning'. (with special guest SRV) I sure wouldn't mind getting that for only $ 5,- !! 🙂

Turnstiles is a good album. I just ordered The Stranger online to replace my original copy. The $5 LP is a rare find in my neck of the woods, unfortunately. Basically I can spend $7/8 ti $15 for an old record in decent condition or North of $20 for reissues. You've got a great place right there with BLK Vinyl!
Thank you for watching, and it would appear BLK is unique in their used pricing. We're very fortunate.
Beach Boys, "15 Big Ones," named like a "best of" but actually refers to the number of years the band had been together. Most known for the "Brian's Back" marketing campaign that shot the otherwise crummy album up to No. 8 on the charts. The more you know ...
The more you know. I'll be sure to make sure Kristi sees this as I'm sure she'll get a kick out of the info! Thanks!
Interesting tid bit, I just sold my 20+ year old mint condition copy of Michael Jackson History 3 x Vinyl Box Set for NZ$250 (approx US$171) I was amazed with all the controversy of the recent documentary, people are still willing to buy MJ's music. I will always listen to MJ as he made some amazing pop music. Music lives on after the person has gone, good bad or otherwise, good music lasts
Kristi and I were just talking about this. Can a person/listener separate the performance from the performer? Should they? I don’t pretend to have the answer but it’s an interesting debate. Thanks for watching.
@@andrewrobinsonreviews I've thought about that same thing with Madonna. I hate who she is, but that doesn't mean I don't dig her earlier music.
First off I have flashdance on vinyl and don’t regret it. But because of this video I’m going to listen to my copy of that foreigner album.
I'm so happy to read all the love for my Flashdance album pick. I really thought I was going to be schooled over that one. Thanks so much for watching!
Love it! Thanks for watching!
2:18 Alice cooper welcome to my nightmare! Great album.
5:50? Did I get a shout out? I'm the Moby Grape guy.
Yes you did. Appreciate the recommendation.
The reason she has never heard any of the songs from Burnin' Sky is because that album along with Running with the Pack, weren't very good. I would love to find some Moby Grape. For those who have not heard of Wishbone Ash, they are definately worth listening to. Their first album was in the back ground.
Is Kristi really like this at home when you're not taping? If she is it's kind of adorable.
Yes, 100%.
@@andrewrobinsonreviews It's none of my business but does she ever get mad? Like really pissed off mad? It's hard to believe if she does. It might even be more adorable, lol. Merry Christmas.
2 major losses: 15 Big Ones and Songs in the Attic. Sad. They both would have made you very happy.
Kristy, enough said.
Owner seems like a really solid guy
i mean the BEN MJ record....next to her at some point DAMN THIS RECORD!! but anyway.....as a couple who likes MUSIC!! its amazing keep going!
When I seen Hall & Oats live (Omaha Ne), they were really good. However, that was back in the 1982 or 83 time period.
OperTM1274 so lucky!
The video did not started yet but from the name of the video i must say you are realy lucky in Slovakia in Bratislava (main city) we got sadly only 3 record shops and cheapest record is 20 uero + not any of them selling old used records
Hope you'll hang around for the premiere in 30 minutes and live chat with Kristi and I.
Nice video, BLK looks like a great store. We had a store in town but sadly it didn't last. Dumb question, but does BLK sell CDs? I seen what looked like an upstairs and thought maybe there was more music up there.
The album that says Rock n Roll Nights is a Bachman Turner Overdrive album, of the same title. I bought a CD boxset of BTO's albums for some reason, "Heartaches" is a decent tune but the rest is not so great.
Great video, hope you two do a second one!
Upstairs is offices and a music studio (I think), so no CDs. We are already thinking of episode 2.
Mmm Billy Joel's Turnstiles album. A damn good album!
Please tell me that you pulled the records out of the sleeve to check the condition of the vinyl. It was a fun video, thanks.
We listened to everyone before we bought. Thanks for watching!
Hi there - greetings from Singapore - Love your channel. Anyway - listened to this video on my MacBook Pro 15 inch built-in speakers during my work from home day, I kept on checking my actual hifi speakers behind me to see if anything else was on as I was getting this background music that sounds like it was coming from behind me - how did you do this? was this intentional? that is actually very cool!!
Delightful video...So I need a to find a record place in Irving,TX area like you have in too cool for school Austin,TX. I spend around $300 for vinyl or more at BestBuy and I'm about to go there now! I'm an addict and need a more affordable vinyl fix...
Check out Bill's Records in Dallas facebook.com/BillsRecordsAndTapes/
You’re getting ripped off at stores like Best Buy that sell vinyl.
@@latenitebeats I stay away from new rererereissues like the plague.
My dad gave me all his records, including a sealed copy of Songs in the Attic. I’m assuming it’s sealed because he just never listened to it. Not that he was saving it or anything. Now, I’m not particularly into Billy Joel, so the question is: do I even open it at this point??
I would, unless it would lose some monumental amount of value. Music is meant to be heard.
I have to agree with Kevin. Open and enjoy often ;)
Well, it was going for $4.99 in the video, so we know it's not that valuable! :)
I keep old records sealed even if they are only worth 50 cents.
I miss this type of video that you used to do. Are you still buying vinyl these days? What albums have you been listening to during the Covid 19 pandemic?
We're doing most of our vinyl shopping these days on Amazon. Shopping in person isn't really worth the risk. I think our last purchases were amzn.to/35zn81X and amzn.to/34JOS1w.
Miss these videos.All The besst!
They look familiar?! Are these guys actors? I’ve seen them somewhere before
We're not actors, well, not anymore(?) 🤷♂️
Andrew Robinson My spider sense was right then!!
Would be amazed if you saw any of our films as they were all very small independent projects.
Andrew Robinson it is all coming back to me now. True Lies with Arnold. That is up there as one of my favourite 80’s action flicks. You made a cameo in that movie? If not must have been some other work of yours that triggered my spider sense maybe spy kids behind the scenes interviews. That is cool I dig the vinyl content.
Well, you've named two films that actors I've worked with have been in, but not me. Not bad.
Kristi makes me laugh with the things she says.
Come to Auckland, New Zealand and checkout famous Real Groovy Records and Marbecks Records
Stony P sounds like the perfect reason to make our first visit to New Zealand!!
@@KristiWright I just bought the new Dido album on Pink Vinyl, stunning album worth a serious listen, also available on black vinyl too
I'll second the Real Groovy Records suggestion. I would also add Penny Lane Records in Christchurch to the "must visit" list.
@@Kiwibloke2025 I heard about her new record. Will probably not find it under $5 but perhaps we will pick it up regardless.
You skipped over Saga? 🧐
Wait a minute didn't you used to work for emotiva?
is that Dave Grohls younger brother?
The first time i saw the shop guy i thought.... Dave Grohl?? What? But it wasen´t him.
No Saga bought? Tsk tsk ...
