Wow! Welcome to Michigan! Ann Arbor was lucky to have you visit. As Steve Carlson says “you’re the nicest person”. I like your sweatshirt! Melinda, do you mean George Piros? He’s the cat that did the mastering on those 77 Zeppelin reissues. Yes, in Michigan, if you’re willing to get down and look at the boxes below the bins, you can find gold. I found an original Santana Abraxas UK pressing! I watch so many people just skip those bins. They refuse to even look at them. They show them zero respect! I hope you can meet Steve Carlson next time!
If I ever get to come back for a longer visit, I would love to meet Steve. The lower bins were pretty cool but hard on my back. Lol. The deadwax of the LZ album says Pecko Duck which to my knowledge is George Peckham. I would have been just as happy with a George Piros pressing though. 🔥♥️ Thank you and take care.
Just discovered your channel & subscribed. Love the passion & how you carry yourself when talking about your collection Melinda. I'm a CD girl but your videos are great to watch. Glad you enjoyed yourself in my home state as well!
You are the Indiana Jones of the VC😁. I cannot believe you found that original pressing of London Calling down in the bottom bins. And you were smart to pick up that In Through the Out Door because it seems to be getting very hard to find a good copy in the wild. I’ve never seen that Paul McCartney album before. Nice find! Even though I’m an Ohio State fan I’ll overlook that Go Blue sweatshirt you’re wearing since you are a VC mentor lol. Nice that you got to see your daughter. Enjoy this fall weather and have a great week! Gary
I may have been in Indiana Jones form but my back started hurting after being on the ground digging. Lol. I am pleased with my finds. I have been searching for a solid copy of In Through the Out Door for quite a while so I am glad to finally have a great copy. We had a wonderful time in Michigan and I'm sure if I had stayed in Ohio, I would be wearing a different sweatshirt. 😀 Thank you and take care.
Great video! Like you, I sought out Hydra for 99 and got a good copy for not much money. Obviously gets overshadowed by Toto IV in their catalog, but a terrific album with great sound! And only you are cool enough to have a video with jazz, The Clash and Karla Bonoff in one setting! 🙂
Nice to see Karla Bonoff get a mention. Coincidentally, I recently got hold of some of her CD's after going on a shameless nostagia binge and revisiting the TV show The Wonder Years from my childhood, one of which episode featured her song Goodbye My Friend. It just got me and had to hear more of her gorgeous voice. Also extra props for Can's Tago Mago. Brilliant band/album and my favourite of theirs if I had to pick one. All their first 5 records are worth checking out, not least those with Damo Suzuki on vocs.
If I see another Can album, I will pick it up. ♥️🤗 I loved The Wonder Years. It's cool that Karla Bonoff was featured. Thank you and enjoy your weekend.
Very successful trip to visit your daughter I see congratulations Hope you had fun 😊 I need to go to a record store when I visit my daughter next time That's going to be a great idea.
I’m glad you had great trip, and a good haul in records, Lynard skynard street survivors is very hard to find or get here in Australia I don’t live in a city so have to go interstate to look at vinyl , lynard skynard is another of those bands I stumbled across searching for different tunes, the other day I put on pink Floyd’s dark side of the moon it’s the crown jewel of my collection and good to listen to once in a while keep smiling and as always enjoy your vinyls
Dark Side of the Moon is one of my favorites as well. ♥️🤗 The story of Lynyrd Skynyrd is tragic but they put out a lot of great music. Thank you and take care.
Our daughter was doing a month long rotation at University of Michigan Hospital. She's in her last year of medical school so we went to visit her. Ann Arbor is wonderful and the record shopping was great. Wazoo Records was a terrific store. It does have a little bit of the same feel that Fort Collins has. Both are wonderful cities. Thank you and take care.
Thanks Merlinda, some great finds! I found a Zep IV Canadian pressing with the "Peco Duck" runout a while ago and it also sounds great. I know what you mean about the brown MCA label being a little suspect. Cheers from Canada.
Another great video I really enjoyed. That Lynyrd Skynyrd album is great and yeah it has sad memories. The Beatles are my favorite band and that Paul McCartney album is good also. I have the Gary Wright album also in good condition and I also have the Knack Get The Knack album in good condition. I paid 50 cents each at my library. Have a great weekend 🎶
Awesome albums Melinda,I like Tago Mago by Can I this have album,I haven't heard still,because theirs a lot albums to hear that I have take my time to hear them.Great picks Melinda.
Hi Melinda, thank you for another fun video! Whenever I watch your, Mazzy or Frank's videos I tell my wife I'm visiting with my UA-cam friends. A few months ago you mentioned you'd release a video about your visit to Mobile Fidelity. Not sure if I missed it. Since I'm in Northern California it would be fun to see a "visitor's view". Do you know when the MoFi visit video will be available?
Thank you for the kind compliment. I'm honored to be your UA-cam friend. ♥️🤗 I did make a video discussing being invited to Mobile Fidelity Sound Labs. I did go and had a wonderful time. I decided to delay making a video due to issues that have been going on this year. I can tell you that I have never met kinder people. They were incredible to me and I am so grateful for the experience. I do hope to discuss it at some point. Thank you and take care.
I bought this album when I was in 8th or 9th grade. It blew me away! Whole lp is pure emotion and reflects the changes going on in America between the late 60s and early 70's. If you were alive in this period of time, and old enough to listen to rock or pop music, it was just a feast of talent , creativity, emotion. People are discovering today,, just how good the music was in the classic rock era (1964-1985). Deja Vu , by CSNY is my favorite album of all time!!
Hello Melinda. Love the video, love the story’s. I’m looking forward to the 20th of this month and the release of Hackney Diamonds from The Rolling Stones. Haven’t been looking forward to a release so much. You’ve made some interesting purchases. By the way, I totally agree with your comment about the Under Shelf’s. Bargains can be found for sure. Take care. Lovely to hear from you once more.
I'm a little too old for digging those lower crates but I did find some cool records. 🤗♥️ I have my pre-order for Hackney Diamonds as well. Thank you and take care.
@@MelindaMurphy yes the lower shelves are a little low I agree lol. Mind you being a lot older than your good self I sometimes wonder if I will ever stand upright again🤓
We are on a road trip, on our way back to NY after visiting friends in NC. Spotted a flea market in Pokomoke MD that mentioned vinyl on their sign. We ended up hauling 10 records out of there. Wouldn’t say they were inexpensive but I was happy to get some titles I’ve never found in the wild. Been wanting City to City by Gerry Rafferty for a while and I finally have it!
I saw Paul may be 15 times since 1992…just awesome concerts…and i went in Abbey Road studio and spent a whole afternoon in studio 2 listening to masters……never heard music like that……gorgeous!!(and Lizzie Bravo ‘chorist on across the universe was also there )
always interesting to get a collectors viewpoint. Also appreciate genuine enthusiasm and hearing from someone talk about records without 1. A beard. 2. black rimmed eyeglasses. 3.Black Tee shirt 4. shaved head , or any variation of those style choices. The mention of ebony and ivory triggered a long ago memory of a picture posted in a Beverly Hills audio salon, of the bed they made that Jackson presented as a gift to McCartney on the occasion of the recording. a price of around a hundred and fifty thousand dollars was included in the brief description. It was of a four poster canopy bed, no canopy , with what looked like black computer speakers , facing downward and in, mounted atop each of the four posts, which were each connected with a single long ebony branch . It was just weird to my eye, all of rustic black ebony, so the whole thing looked like it was made out of long branches, not lumber . the branches were trimmed, with the branches of side growth trimmed to small stumps, with the wood being wild and craggily , but straight enough for the need.. I trust it looked better in person, this was just a slightly enlarged black and white snapshot, and the bed looked a little thin on top , not very substantial because of the tapering of the uprights. in the picture, it looked like it somehow survived a house fire, from the distorted assembled shapes and solid black color. I suppose a gift like that is perfect for a charity auction, and actually showed great skill in selection, being a little too big for a Christmas white elephant gift exchange. .
@@MelindaMurphy I’ve been there many times. I live about 45 minutes from Ann Arbor. I live in Southfield Michigan. So it’s not a very long drive from my house. Just about a half hour drive from there is Dearborn Music 🎼 and it’s really nice. Used, new vinyl and CD’s. And new cassettes if you’re into that. Next time you come to metro Detroit let me know. I’ll show you around. I have two record stores only 10 minutes from my house. Flipside Records and Street Corner Records.
Congratulations on your new vinyl finds. You found some good ones! I am glad you were able to visit your daughter. I recently found Donovan debut record on the Hickory label in VG condition. I made it to the John Denver Celebration. I met musicians and fans who knew John Denver. I bought a photograph from a man who knew John Denver and had many privileges of going back stage and being on movie sets. I made a video of the John Denver Sanctuary in Aspen, Colorado. The thumbnail is John Denver's memorial. It was a good experience, and so glad I went to this tribute celebration.
That's very cool. I spent some time IN Colorado a few years back. I should have gone to the John Denver Sanctuary. What a beautiful state. Thank you and take care.
You managed to score some great albums Melinda, I agree on what you said re the Clash album I cherish my OG copy. I just had a wee splurge last weekend got a much wanted OG in mint condition of Parallel lines from Blondie and the new Norah jones album. Happy days lol.
Congrats. Finding the original version of Parallel Lines is very difficult. I found one for a friend a couple of years ago and it took a very long time so congrats on that one. That was a good day. ♥️🤗 Thank you and take care.
Hello Melinda! Very nice records! Paul McCartney great artist, great live concerts! Can great music, I have the follow up "Ege Bamyasi" ( on green vinyl) of that album that you are holding. A great Krautrockband! Sad story that planecrash. I think also on the great Stevie Ray Vaughan now who also died in a terrible crash. Of The Clash I prefer their Sandinista album That Zeppelin 4 is on my wishlist! In the past I skipped this at an outdoor market, because the cover was detoriated and I didn't see a name of the band on the cover🙂 I did not yet know that cover, that this was a Led Zeppelin record. Toto a band with nice songs. Have a nice week. Greetings Jason
I like Sandinista too. ♥️🤗 Great album. I do think of Stevie Ray Vaughan. I can still remember where I was when the news came across the radio. That was so sad and I can only imagine how Lynyrd Skynyrd fans must have felt. Thank you and take care.
There are accessories to remove static electricity from vinyl records. Then there are Ultra Sonic vinyl cleaners. I guess that's the best kind of cleaning
@@MelindaMurphy No problem Melinda! So happy you enjoyed them! One of my favorite songs is on the same titled album wild heart of the young! Reminds me of my youth! I love her relaxed voice, and her beautiful use of lyrics and music combined! Very underrated and that’s why I wanted to share those with you! Definitely The heart of a woman!
Some killer finds! I love that McCartney album, I have it CD and was hoping it would get the reissue in his Archive line, but so far nothing. Funny thing about Karla Bonoff, her biggest hit, “Personally” wasn’t written by her! That first album though is fantastic.
The McCartney albums seem to have stalled. There are so many of his records that need a reissue. This would be a good one that a lot of people would buy. I assumed she wrote Personally. Interesting how that works. Lol. 🤗 Thank you and take care.
Re: special versions of Led Zep IV - just pre-ordered the Atlantic Records 75th anniversary, 180g audiophile, numbered, clear vinyl version of Led Zep IV from Popmarket. Hopefully will be a collectible item years from now. I also have OP of Gary Wright Dream Weaver album (and his others as well), played only once (Technics/Shure V15-IV) to record to cassette. Paul McCartney played my home town of Charlotte, NC in June 1993, think some of the concert may have ended up on the Tripping The Live Fantastic lp. Check out his album Off The Ground, which was featured at that concert.
That should be a cool Led Zeppelin release. 🤗♥️ I would love to see Off the Ground get a reissue. It's about time for it. Lol. Thank you and have a great weekend.
@@MelindaMurphy I’m also in the Madonna Dress You Up video from 1985 at Cobo Hall here in Detroit. I can’t find myself in the Angel video. But I was right up in front for this concert. It was so fun. My dad dropped me and my friends up in front of Cobo Hall and waited for us to get out. He passed away in 1992.
Really cool records you show this week. Can was a great group but what was this thing about water in the Zeppelin (made in Sweden actually) Thanks if you answer.....
"The Dream Weaver" is a good album. I got my copy from an antique shop in their $1. bin(and a few more too!!) in California central coast town. I won't buy a trashed or abused record for any price. I've found some pretty good record deals in central coast antique stores and thrift stores. Glad you found some cool records which made you happy!
The Dream Weaver is usually a pretty inexpensive record. I definitely paid a little more for mine but it was clean and free of surface noise so it was worth it. I enjoy the record very much. Thank you and take care. 🤗♥️
I saw Paul on that tour at Madison Square Garden when I was 25 and I'm not ashamed to admit that I was in tears during parts of that show, because I was such a huge Beatles fan ever since I was little. To hear him play Beatle songs, and A lot of them, gave me chills. It was really the first time that he had played so many. Great show, Great memory.
I was nearly in tears when I saw him just a few years back so I completely understand. ♥️🤗 It kept getting me that I was watching one of The Beatles performing their songs. Incredible! Thank you and take care.
@@MelindaMurphy melinde I’m surprised because you’re approximately of the age that you would probably know Paul McCartney and wings more than the Beatles. Yes, the Beatles are the best but the wings were not slouches…. some really great music came from that group.
whats the smell ................ that surrounds us ( changed the words lol ) is the smell of autum and PSL andddddddddd another Awesome video that doesn't smell but it was Awesome.
Funny thing about inner sleeves. I’ve been a huge fan of Dead or Alive. A middle 1980’s band. I found my Come Home With Me Baby 12” Single. Beat up..been throw a flood in my basement years ago. So I looked at the record. Definitely needed a good cleaning 🧼. I cleaned it up. Put it on my Record Player and it’s sounds great..not even warped. It’s on the Epic Record label and I’m surprised after all this record has been through..it sounds so good. But, I do need a good record cleaner.
@@MelindaMurphy I need to get a good inner sleeve for it. But, it definitely is still hanging in there. I’m playing Mad, Bad and Dangerous to Know right now. Peter Burns was great. He passed away in 2016 I think. But, I always loved Dead Or Alive. Not sure what kind of music 🎼 this band was. Alt Dance probably.
I need a good record clean 🧼 machine or kit. I still use a Kleenex and water 💦 to clean my old records. I think there’s probably a better way. But, it works. Plus I have a brush too.
@@MelindaMurphy it’s still sounds great 👍. These old 12” singles that came out in the 1980’s sound so good 😊. I’m not sure what they did back then. They just have a punch 🤛 that new vinyl doesn’t have anymore.
A slight variant on this experience is that while I have a bunch of the Classic records 180 and 200g releases of Zeppelin's albums - and they're one of my half-dozen favorite rock bands- I somehow never got one of II, despite my buying the ones I had at a time they were still in online stores (Too expensive to get yet another one at the time- hah! in light of later cost madness with these titles). The '14 Page reissues generally don't do it for me- so I decided to give a chance to a somewhat beat-up copy of II, in a beat-up lp jacket, that I'd gotten years before from my brother-in-law's collection that he'd dumped, but that I'd never gotten to because I just assumed it would sound like crap (I tend to take good care of LP jackets, and particularly good care of my LPs themselves) Well, despite a lot more surface noise than I'd typically tolerate- there was a fair amount- the pressing was soooo dynamic and tonally rich and overall wounderful, particularly on side one, that I had to check if it was a Ludwig pressing. It wasn't, but it sounds incredibly dynamic for a standard release or an lp in general- what I've heard referred to as a 'hot stamper.' It's a testament to its slam and overall appeal that the frequent background crackling only minimally bugs me, that overall the listening experience still far beats either an early cd of it or the '14 edition- but would be a rule-out on just about any other record. Lesson learned- don't rule out an lp based on its appearance; conversely, of course, there are as we all know many LPs that look mint and lots of surface noise 'baked in.' But the LZ II experience of mine is happily the opposite kind of experience..
Wow! You have an awesome Led Zeppelin collection. I'm so glad you have a wonderful LZ 2 pressing and those Classic versions are some of the best. They are extremely expensive these days. Thank you and take care.
@@MelindaMurphy Thanks! To be clear, I only have Classic versions of 1, 3, 4, and ITTOD- I still need better copies of HOTH, PG, and Presence, though generally the Classics in M or NM are priced too high for me, so at some point I'd like to find the best affordable alternatives.
There's A LED ZEPPELIN CD BoxSet In Which Each Album Is In A Cardboard LP Type Sleeve...For In Through The Out Door LP~It Comes With The Other Album Cover Sleeves With The Different Photos To Interchange...
I only recently discovered Krautrock, through Can and Tago Mago. I am amazed I was never really exposed to it, outside of Kraftwerk and Tangerine Dream. It just floors me, and is currently my favourite genre. Halleluhwah is absolutely epic, one of my favourite songs now. I have the release you showed, and was lucky enough to find an original German pressing at the den Bosch show in the Netherlands, I agree the recent release (it is a digtally sourced remaster) sounds good, but the original is truly amazing!
yah reverse for me---I bought the Talking Heads 1985 album --just reissued for the 1st time. Now I see why it took so long. What a horrid album. Glad you found gems. Ohhh..I do like Hydra LP much more than The Toto ones with all the big hits.
Hi Melinda, back in 1989 Karla Bonoff put out an amazing album called New World. It was issued on the Gold Castle label. It is superb and rivals her Columbia albums. Check it out you won't regret it. She also did 2 albums with the band Bryndle. This band also featured Kenny Edwards, Wendy Waldman and Andrew Gold.
Ive got several Mac Solo Pieces ....one if those albums was full of pain and angst over his horrid marital carastrophe .....taken for a ride .....i felt his pain ......thats songwriting 😢
I love getting Krautrock albums. Recently got an original Amon Duul II - Yeti and it is mind blowing. Long Hair Records out of France reissues a lot of rarer Krautrock albums and they have all sounded great. Also, the recent reissue of Ash Ra Tempel - S/T album is very good.
I hope you have a good cd player I haven't listened to it myself but marantz apparently got some hifi award for their cd player in 2021. at least one of their players can also play SACD. Denon is also interesting because they have players that sample up CD sound . Rega also has a CD player. and for those who want to enjoy music with surround sound from SACD, there is Sony's Blu-ray player and UHD Blu-ray player. other brands are also available
@@MelindaMurphy You may know that MOFI and analog productions also make SACD. if it says Hybrid, it means that it also has a track that can be played on a normal CD player, but then of course the sound quality will not be the same. SACD gives the possibility to transfer, for example, three channel stereo from a master tape from the 1950s. Or maybe the surround sound that was on vinyl records in the 70s. In those days you needed a decoder. now they can probably transfer the separate audio channels from the master tape to separate tracks on the disc. At least it would be possible. today there are also Blu-ray audio discs. But the other thing that makes them Thulin, among other things universal
@@MelindaMurphy By the way Your Amplifier. Does it have a digital audio input? ie own DA converter. So that it can decode the data itself and create sound. instead of the CD player doing it. Just connect toslink or Coaxial
What is it about That Smell u dont like? Lyrics or just not a song as a whole u dont care for? Just curious. That Smell for me, is one of my top favorite Skynyrd tunes. May i also ask how you much paid for the Skynyrd record. Thats a veryyyy nice copy!
I just don't like the way it's sung. That Smell just isn't a favorite for me. My best friend loves that song. 🤗 I paid $39 for the record because the condition was so nice. I thought it was a fair price. Thank you and take care. 🤗♥️
I’m into 70’s 80’s & 90’s music 🎶 on vinyl somebody I know gave me some Jazz vinyl I like them I never was into them before now I’m into listening to Jazz music 🎶 😂lol it’s too funny for me
Well Aumgn is apparently an Alistair Crowley incantation so yeah very fitting for Halloween. I agree MCA pressings are pretty hit and miss. Usually the black/rainbow (1973 design) and the Beige (1978) design are usually decent sounding. The post 1980 rainbow and clouds pressings are usually horrible as they were trying to do everything on the cheap. I also never liked the quality of 1980s Arista pressings. I have always confused Karla Bonoff and Jennifer Warnes. They sound alike to me.
The tan color MCA label that came out in 1977 is so bland it does make one think the record will sound bland. Of course its not true but...the myth....
So glad to see your Karla Bonoff goodies! I always supported her since hearing her first album in 1979 was glad that "Personally" hit a million copies in 1982 and what a beauty she was with a great Linda Ronstadt-style voice - I never had a problem with Led Zeppelin first pressings - Ahmet Ertegun at Atlantic Records always made sure the mastering was top shelf and Jimmy Page always give him notes - I couldn't keep up with Paul McCartney's Live Collections during the '90s and "Light Fantastic" I passed on - Great video Melinda❤- See You Next Week!
I remember hearing Personally as a kid. ♥️ She has a beautiful voice. My husband likes her too. This Led Zeppelin reissue is very good. What a classic album. ♥️🤗 Thank you and take care.
Really enjoyable Melinda! The copy of Hydra - what a steal! Toto’s first few albums sound really great. They are so well produced and recorded. Classic rock from that period! Some years ago, when I was releasing some of my music on vinyl ( I intend to do it again by the way, as streaming is essentially robbery!! The late David Crosby and I had many one to one twitter discussions yearsback about it. ) Anyway, I took my analogue master tapes to Porky’s Prime Cuts and met George Peckham. As you know he’d cut The Beatles, Kate Bush and so many of the great EMI artists. I spent a few hours with him, sitting right next to the lathe as it was doing the cut. He had some fascinating stories and anecdotes about his ‘tweaking’ of levels and EQ. This was a really happy memory and a special meeting. Needless to say, he wrote in the out groove #PORKY PRIME CUT on the A side and ‘SCHOOL FOR SECRETS’ on the flip side. I remember him misspelling ( or perhaps it was Kate ) ‘Remember Yourself’ on her album Lionheart. It is inscribed ‘REMBER YOURSELF’ Ah, the fascination of the LP is boundless! Best wishes! Stewart 🙏🏻
Toto Hydra, with "99". I also love that track. It just keeps flowing along before it closes, and the guitar and piano work is gorgeous. Excellent taste!! 😁
I am really having a hard time seeing you in a Michigan T Shirt. Never owned one, never will, go NE Cornhuskers! Thank you for the shout out. We will meet up, look forward to meet you and Phillip, no bourbon please lol. Downtown Ann Arbor is great. I use to stay there some for work and loved eating downtown. I have done a lot of Xmas shopping there. There record stores are great and they have a huge record show. I do love the song Dream Weaver. OG Clash, must have in my book. It’s okay to burn the sweatshirt Glad you enjoyed MI.
I'm sorry to offend you with my sweatshirt. Lol. I know you're a Nebraska fan. 😀 There is a chance our daughter may do her residency at University of Michigan. Ann Arbor is a lovely place and the shopping and restaurants are wonderful. Thank you and enjoy your weekend.
You pulled some clean looking OG’s, between that “Street Survivors” & “London Calling”! Matt/Prime Analog Records has some of the most unique tastes that he shares on his channel. 🤘🏻
Great score on the OG London Calling with the hype. Looks in great condition. I dont typically sit on the floor and dig in the under crates. You make me want to rethink this.
I am from Michigan. While in college From the late 70s we drove 45 minutes from East Lansing east to Ann Arbor to the old School Kids Records. What a store! They intoduced me to some great music. They had a whole 20 ft wide section of import records - UK, German and Japanese. I have a killer collection of first press imports from them. They closed in the early 90s. Encore Records is just down the street and I still go today when visiting family. Went many times to the State Theatre next door to see great concerts over the years. There were also some cool punk stores in the early 80s. Glad you really enjoyed your stay
😊 great video Melinda miss those days of record store shopping especially in LA where the stores were all close together in location quick note about the Lynyrd Skynyrd Street survivors album that wasn't original band that you mentioned Steve gaines replaced Ed King who was big in writing freebird and workin for MCA also Bob Burns who Artemis the drummer replaced also I have a Hydra by Toto album signed by the band
I knew there had been some member changes. I shouldn't have said they were all original members. Shopping in LA would be pretty amazing. ♥️ Thank you and enjoy your weekend.
Love the shirt!!! How did you like the traffic and parking in Ann arbor? Lol I live about 25 miles east closer to Detroit and I rarely make it out there because of those two things. Then again I've got six places within a 10 -mile radius of me that I can buy music from.
There was a parking garage that we used and it only cost a few bucks. I didn't think it was bad at all. It's a great city with wonderful restaurants and the record stores were cool. 🤗 Thank you and take care.
Your video brought me back to my Ann Arbor days as a grad student of U of M. Unfortunately, I was only collecting CDs then (plus I was a poor student) so I never even browsed the great record stores. But I will the next time I'm in the area. Thanks for another great video!
Love your U of M hoodie!! I’m from Michigan!! I live north of Detroit about 40 minutes!! I never get down to Ann Arbor area to buy records!! But I do a lot in the upper region of Metro Detroit!! My favorite record from this video is your street survivors find which I have one too with flames!!
Steve is the best! 😊 I just found Tripping the live Fantastic at a record fare this spring (I’ve owned it on CD since it came out but love my vinyl copy). Yet again some great finds Melinda, thank you for yet another great video 😊
You got some nice pick ups there. London Calling is great and I also have an original. A couple of my Zeppelin records are the '77 pressings and they sound great. I did pickup a stylus brush and a set of the coasters from GrooveWasher....those coasters are so nice! Thanks for the discount! Great video and take care!
I'm so glad you are happy with your coasters. They're adorable. ♥️ I'm glad you used the discount code. 🤗 I have had great luck with the '77 Led Zeppelin reissues. Thank you and take care.
Yes, the original cover has been used again which I find interesting. It seems a little disrespectful but maybe the families gave their approval. The original cover does look cool. Thank you and take care.
@@MelindaMurphy Indeed...I Was Paying That For Some Brand New Records~In The Early 1980s~From The Classic Woolco & Woolworths Stores...Which Sadly Closed By The Mid To Late 1980s...😒
Great finds! McCartney is amazing! The Zeppelin album in pristine condition is great! Usually a rough one bc played lots! You are correct when you see the VRP inner sleeves (valuable record protecter)sleeves were from Discwasher ! I have many of those! Original LS album is a super-find! Pretty rare! A must have for the Skynyrd collector! Haha going in the bins below kills my knees so usually pass unless I see something in the front😢 Great video and find’s Melinda!
I agree. I'm too old to dig in the lower bins but I did find some cool records. The Lynyrd Skynyrd album is a hard one to find and the story surrounding it is so sad. Thank you and take care. ♥️🤗
The flame cover was reinstated for a 90’s Gold CD (“MCA Master” - I think that was the series at the time), and the standard expanded CD release (and the two CD Deluxe Edition). Has been the standard cover ever since. (And, Street Survivors actually showed where Skynyrd was possibly going, with both Ronnie and Steve both doing lead vocals.)
Nice pick ups, Melinda! Gotta admit, I'm not a fan of "Hydra", it's the only Toto album that I think maybe should never have been released, especially as the follow up to their debut album. "99" is a great song, but I saw them on the "Hydra" tour, and they were AWFUL! As for the Karla Bonoff, what a great VCLT - that debut album is a MASTERPIECE, particularly "Someone To Lay Down Beside Me", one of the best songs of all time. Love that debut album for sure! She should have been bigger than she ever was as an artist, without question. Take care!
I agree. She should have been up there with Linda Ronstadt in popularity. She is very talented. I'm surprised Toto was so bad. What a disappointment. Thank you and take care. ♥️🤗
Remember getting my original copy of Street Survivors. If you look there is a list of places Skynyrd would have done a concert at. Remember an Interview at the local radio station WYNF with Ronnie and Gary, maybe Allen not sure. The last time Ronnie Van Zant would sing Freebird in St. Petersburg, Lakeland and Greenville, South Carolina. Been to Gillsburg and meet Lola Easly. Been to Riverside Memorial Cemetery and Jacksonville Memory Gardens. Just thinking what a Talent Steve Gaines was. Wondering what Steve, Ronnie, Gary and Allen would come up next Following Street Survivors. God Bless Johnny and Rickey and the rest of Skynyrd. And bless the first responders who saved 20 people that tragic night in Mississippi. Have a good one Melinda.
I'm too young to really remember that but I'm sure it was heart breaking for the families and fans. They made some great music and unfortunately, their lives were just too short. Thank you and take care.
I had to laugh when you mentioned the MCA label and Elton John records. In that collection I was given a couple of years ago, there were some Elton John LPs in it and I was really disappointed by how non hi-fi they sounded. They were really dull and honestly terrible sounding I thought. I was out of town on Saturday and when I was coming back Saturday evening I was explaining that same exact thing about those Elton John MCA titles from the 1970s to the two friends I was riding with. Somebody had brought him up in the car and it brought that to mind. I've never heard anybody else mention this until your video today Melinda. I'm going to have to look and see but I've noticed the same exact thing with 1970s John Denver albums. I just looked and it's not MCA but RCA that put those out. I've only got two that came in that collection that was given to me. I'm not really a collector of him even though I grew up and have fun memories that do go with certain songs he made popular back in the '70s. But the audio quality and sound was just so muffled sounding to me with the mid-range and high end frequencies just not being present is the best way I can think of describing those 1970s Elton John and John Denver albums. But on the other hand, I've also got some great sounding MCA 1970s records and probably RCA too. So I don't know what the story is on why those popular artists didn't have better sounding albums? I'm glad you had a good trip seeing your daughter and record shopping. I actually went to a ham radio convention but came back with some Linda Ronstadt, Robin Trower, and a few other LPs that one of the ham radio vendors was selling at a table. They were all 1970s originals, used, and at a $1.67 a piece and being extremely clean and incredible sounding, that was kind of the icing on the cake for a good weekend trip :-) Brian in Fort Worth 🎶
I just haven't had great luck with the sound quality of MCA labels, until now. The blue rainbow pressings are the worst. Lol. It was great to see our girl. ♥️ Thank you and take care.
I love Gary Wright “The Dream Weaver”! I love the music and it’s an excellent sounding record! Unfortunately it was sold off with a huge chunk of my record collection. I definitely need to rebuy it. I also LOVE Karla Bonoff! Also had all her albums but, sold them off. I have a lot of vinyl I need to rebuy!
It's a little tricky to find The Dream Weaver in excellent condition but there are a lot of quiet passages so a great copy is a must. I am probably going to let some of my collection go and I always worry that I will let something go that I regret later. I guess that happens and isn't the end of the world. Lol. Thank you and enjoy your weekend.
Good Morning 🌞 Melinda - I used to live up north in Traverse City, Mi where Steve Carlson has some stores he overlooks & Madonna has her Cicconne Vineyards. Some fine wine 🍷. Love The Clash & Can & Gary Wright records. Everybody should own & enjoy London Calling. 😊
Always love your vids.. I just got a hold of a really nice copy of red rose Speedway. Btw I just got my Halloween Horror soundtracks and contest video posted. The vinyl spirits were restless. I think I heard them whisper your name. (And others in the VC) 😁
A home-run right out of the shoot. I think Paul's live fantastic is my favorite live with a second only to Paul is live. ( I'm screaming on that record. ) I'm glad you had a good time. I went to my local half-price books and records and found the Beatles Thirty days in 1963. I was sealed and played great for 14.99 . I also bought a 1st pressing of days of future passed . That's the first record for g3.Great picks all in all. I went to Tidal and listened to the Can album and it was pretty good. Question for you, have you looked at rsd black friday and found anything to your liking? I have a couple must haves my self. Have yourself a great day and give a call when you have time. I have important to talk to about. Take Care. ❤
Hey Mike! This is a great Paul live concert. I'm thrilled to have it. There are a few records I would like to have for RSD. Nothing earth shattering but that's probably a good thing. Lol. Thank you and take care. 🤗♥️
Hello Melinda ! Making surprise finds in a different store is alway a joy. You made a great haul. This past weekend I went to the more ”serious” collector store in our neighbour town. And where I expected to find mostly obscure stuff , I found a whole row of crates with non sorted stuff that the regular customers have no interest in. All mostly forgotten mainstream pop music from my party days in the 80’s : Q-feel The Flirts Bolland Indochine Nena Kajagogo Men without hats F R David Devo Telex Data Landscape Between $2-$5 EACH !!!!!!! I’m going back this weekend. I’m gonna hit the ”80’s soundtrack” crates , HARD !!!!! Take care /R (A at work)
@@MelindaMurphy : Sorry , me again. Annette says I must mention that the Q-feel album (the only one they released) is like a time-machine for us. Back to the early 80’s when we met. Teeny-boppy synthpop we danced to. They had the song ”Dancing in heaven” in the Sarah Jessica Parker/Helen Hunt movie ”Girls just want to have fun” from 1985. Aah , sweet youth. Where have you gone? Take care A&R
I have "pipes of peace " record, that's the only "Paul McCartney " record other than the few "Beatles " records I own! I love it! It's obvious he cares about audio! 😊

Wow! Welcome to Michigan! Ann Arbor was lucky to have you visit. As Steve Carlson says “you’re the nicest person”. I like your sweatshirt! Melinda, do you mean George Piros? He’s the cat that did the mastering on those 77 Zeppelin reissues. Yes, in Michigan, if you’re willing to get down and look at the boxes below the bins, you can find gold. I found an original Santana Abraxas UK pressing! I watch so many people just skip those bins. They refuse to even look at them. They show them zero respect! I hope you can meet Steve Carlson next time!
If I ever get to come back for a longer visit, I would love to meet Steve. The lower bins were pretty cool but hard on my back. Lol.
The deadwax of the LZ album says Pecko Duck which to my knowledge is George Peckham. I would have been just as happy with a George Piros pressing though. 🔥♥️ Thank you and take care.
@@MelindaMurphy ok. I’ll have to check them out. Enjoy your vinyl finds!
Just discovered your channel & subscribed. Love the passion & how you carry yourself when talking about your collection Melinda. I'm a CD girl but your videos are great to watch. Glad you enjoyed yourself in my home state as well!
Thank you very much. I loved Ann Arbor. ♥️ Have a great day. 😃
You are the Indiana Jones of the VC😁. I cannot believe you found that original pressing of London Calling down in the bottom bins. And you were smart to pick up that In Through the Out Door because it seems to be getting very hard to find a good copy in the wild. I’ve never seen that Paul McCartney album before. Nice find! Even though I’m an Ohio State fan I’ll overlook that Go Blue sweatshirt you’re wearing since you are a VC mentor lol. Nice that you got to see your daughter. Enjoy this fall weather and have a great week!
Gary
I may have been in Indiana Jones form but my back started hurting after being on the ground digging. Lol. I am pleased with my finds. I have been searching for a solid copy of In Through the Out Door for quite a while so I am glad to finally have a great copy. We had a wonderful time in Michigan and I'm sure if I had stayed in Ohio, I would be wearing a different sweatshirt. 😀 Thank you and take care.
Great video! Like you, I sought out Hydra for 99 and got a good copy for not much money. Obviously gets overshadowed by Toto IV in their catalog, but a terrific album with great sound! And only you are cool enough to have a video with jazz, The Clash and Karla Bonoff in one setting! 🙂
Thank you for the kind words. Hydra for $3 was well worth it. ♥️ Have a great week!
Nice to see Karla Bonoff get a mention. Coincidentally, I recently got hold of some of her CD's after going on a shameless nostagia binge and revisiting the TV show The Wonder Years from my childhood, one of which episode featured her song Goodbye My Friend. It just got me and had to hear more of her gorgeous voice. Also extra props for Can's Tago Mago. Brilliant band/album and my favourite of theirs if I had to pick one. All their first 5 records are worth checking out, not least those with Damo Suzuki on vocs.
If I see another Can album, I will pick it up. ♥️🤗
I loved The Wonder Years. It's cool that Karla Bonoff was featured. Thank you and enjoy your weekend.
Another wonderful video, Melinda. Truly enjoy your record store escapades!
Thank you so much! ♥️🤗
Very successful trip to visit your daughter I see congratulations Hope you had fun 😊 I need to go to a record store when I visit my daughter next time That's going to be a great idea.
It's cool to see what record stores in other areas have. We had a lot of fun. Thank you Ron. 🤗♥️
I’m glad you had great trip, and a good haul in records, Lynard skynard street survivors is very hard to find or get here in Australia I don’t live in a city so have to go interstate to look at vinyl , lynard skynard is another of those bands I stumbled across searching for different tunes, the other day I put on pink Floyd’s dark side of the moon it’s the crown jewel of my collection and good to listen to once in a while keep smiling and as always enjoy your vinyls
Dark Side of the Moon is one of my favorites as well. ♥️🤗 The story of Lynyrd Skynyrd is tragic but they put out a lot of great music. Thank you and take care.
Love Ann Arbor! I had a stint at U of M and also lived there in 2012-13. I was just back in August and also visited Wazoo. 👍🏻👍🏻 go Blue!
Our daughter was doing a month long rotation at University of Michigan Hospital. She's in her last year of medical school so we went to visit her. Ann Arbor is wonderful and the record shopping was great. Wazoo Records was a terrific store. It does have a little bit of the same feel that Fort Collins has. Both are wonderful cities. Thank you and take care.
Thanks Merlinda, some great finds! I found a Zep IV Canadian pressing with the "Peco Duck" runout a while ago and it also sounds great. I know what you mean about the brown MCA label being a little suspect. Cheers from Canada.
Lol. I don't get excited when I see the MCA label. I do get excited when I see Pecko
Duck. 😉 Thank you and take care.
thx for shairing, greetings from switzerland
Thank you! ♥️🤗
Another great video I really enjoyed. That Lynyrd Skynyrd album is great and yeah it has sad memories. The Beatles are my favorite band and that Paul McCartney album is good also. I have the Gary Wright album also in good condition and I also have the Knack Get The Knack album in good condition. I paid 50 cents each at my library. Have a great weekend 🎶
Wow! You got a great deal on that The Knack album. 🤗♥️ The Lynyrd Skynyrd album is great with an incredibly tragic story. Thank you and take care.
Super cool!! Great buys!!
Thanks so much! 🤗♥️
Awesome albums Melinda,I like Tago Mago by Can I this have album,I haven't heard still,because theirs a lot albums to hear that I have take my time to hear them.Great picks Melinda.
There's so much great music to listen to. 🤗 Thank you and take care.
@@MelindaMurphy Thank you melinda.Sometimes I make errors on my comments like I did today.We love vinyl's and that what counts.✌
Hi Melinda, thank you for another fun video! Whenever I watch your, Mazzy or Frank's videos I tell my wife I'm visiting with my UA-cam friends. A few months ago you mentioned you'd release a video about your visit to Mobile Fidelity. Not sure if I missed it. Since I'm in Northern California it would be fun to see a "visitor's view". Do you know when the MoFi visit video will be available?
Thank you for the kind compliment. I'm honored to be your UA-cam friend. ♥️🤗
I did make a video discussing being invited to Mobile Fidelity Sound Labs. I did go and had a wonderful time. I decided to delay making a video due to issues that have been going on this year. I can tell you that I have never met kinder people. They were incredible to me and I am so grateful for the experience. I do hope to discuss it at some point. Thank you and take care.
I bought this album when I was in 8th or 9th grade. It blew me away! Whole lp is pure emotion and reflects the changes going on in America between the late 60s and early 70's. If you were alive in this period of time, and old enough to listen to rock or pop music, it was just a feast of talent , creativity, emotion. People are discovering today,, just how good the music was in the classic rock era (1964-1985). Deja Vu , by CSNY is my favorite album of all time!!
That is a fantastic record. I am too young to remember it but I have come to love it as a vinyl collector. Thank you and take care.
Gotcha....for that condition I'd pay $40 also!!
Hello Melinda. Love the video, love the story’s. I’m looking forward to the 20th of this month and the release of Hackney Diamonds from The Rolling Stones. Haven’t been looking forward to a release so much. You’ve made some interesting purchases. By the way, I totally agree with your comment about the Under Shelf’s. Bargains can be found for sure. Take care. Lovely to hear from you once more.
I'm a little too old for digging those lower crates but I did find some cool records. 🤗♥️ I have my pre-order for Hackney Diamonds as well. Thank you and take care.
@@MelindaMurphy yes the lower shelves are a little low I agree lol. Mind you being a lot older than your good self I sometimes wonder if I will ever stand upright again🤓
We are on a road trip, on our way back to NY after visiting friends in NC. Spotted a flea market in Pokomoke MD that mentioned vinyl on their sign. We ended up hauling 10 records out of there. Wouldn’t say they were inexpensive but I was happy to get some titles I’ve never found in the wild. Been wanting City to City by Gerry Rafferty for a while and I finally have it!
That's such a great record. I love Right Down the Line and Bakers Street. I'm glad you found some great music! ♥️🤗 Safe travels.
The Zeppelin was available as covers A through F with the letter being shown at the top of the spine. Nice pick ups!
I love the Zeppelin album covers. Most of them have very cool concepts behind them. Thank you and take care. 🤗♥️
I saw Paul may be 15 times since 1992…just awesome concerts…and i went in Abbey Road studio and spent a whole afternoon in studio 2 listening to masters……never heard music like that……gorgeous!!(and Lizzie Bravo ‘chorist on across the universe was also there )
Oh wow! I would love to see Paul again. ♥️ The Abbey Road experience must have been wonderful. Thank you and take care.
always interesting to get a collectors viewpoint. Also appreciate genuine enthusiasm and hearing from someone talk about records without 1. A beard. 2. black rimmed eyeglasses. 3.Black Tee shirt 4. shaved head , or any variation of those style choices.
The mention of ebony and ivory triggered a long ago memory of a picture posted in a Beverly Hills audio salon, of the bed they made that Jackson presented as a gift to McCartney on the occasion of the recording. a price of around a hundred and fifty thousand dollars was included in the brief description.
It was of a four poster canopy bed, no canopy , with what looked like black computer speakers , facing downward and in, mounted atop each of the four posts, which were each connected with a single long ebony branch . It was just weird to my eye, all of rustic black ebony, so the whole thing looked like it was made out of long branches, not lumber . the branches were trimmed, with the branches of side growth trimmed to small stumps, with the wood being wild and craggily , but straight enough for the need.. I trust it looked better in person, this was just a slightly enlarged black and white snapshot, and the bed looked a little thin on top , not very substantial because of the tapering of the uprights. in the picture, it looked like it somehow survived a house fire, from the distorted assembled shapes and solid black color.
I suppose a gift like that is perfect for a charity auction, and actually showed great skill in selection, being a little too big for a Christmas white elephant gift exchange.
.
Thank you for the kind words. I had never heard that story about Jackson and McCartney before. That's interesting. 🤔 Thank you and take care.
I’ve never been here. And I’m only a hour away from Ann Arbor. Thanks for the recommendation.
You should go to their downtown area. There are a lot of wonderful restaurants and 4 record stores. 🥰 It's a great place. Thank you and take care.
@@MelindaMurphy I’ve been there many times. I live about 45 minutes from Ann Arbor. I live in Southfield Michigan. So it’s not a very long drive from my house. Just about a half hour drive from there is Dearborn Music 🎼 and it’s really nice. Used, new vinyl and CD’s. And new cassettes if you’re into that. Next time you come to metro Detroit let me know. I’ll show you around. I have two record stores only 10 minutes from my house. Flipside Records and Street Corner Records.
Always loved the label artwork on Hydra!
Me too. It's very cool. Thank you and take care.
Congratulations on your new vinyl finds. You found some good ones! I am glad you were able to visit your daughter.
I recently found Donovan debut record on the Hickory label in VG condition.
I made it to the John Denver Celebration. I met musicians and fans who knew John Denver. I bought a photograph from a man who knew John Denver and had many privileges of going back stage and being on movie sets. I made a video of the John Denver Sanctuary in Aspen, Colorado. The thumbnail is John Denver's memorial. It was a good experience, and so glad I went to this tribute celebration.
That's very cool. I spent some time IN Colorado a few years back. I should have gone to the John Denver Sanctuary. What a beautiful state. Thank you and take care.
@@MelindaMurphy I hope you can visit the John Denver Sanctuary someday.
You managed to score some great albums Melinda, I agree on what you said re the Clash album I cherish my OG copy. I just had a wee splurge last weekend got a much wanted OG in mint condition of Parallel lines from Blondie and the new Norah jones album. Happy days lol.
Congrats. Finding the original version of Parallel Lines is very difficult. I found one for a friend a couple of years ago and it took a very long time so congrats on that one. That was a good day. ♥️🤗 Thank you and take care.
Hello Melinda! Very nice records! Paul McCartney great artist, great live concerts! Can great music, I have the follow up "Ege Bamyasi" ( on green vinyl) of that album that you are holding. A great Krautrockband! Sad story that planecrash. I think also on the great Stevie Ray Vaughan now who also died in a terrible crash. Of The Clash I prefer their Sandinista album That Zeppelin 4 is on my wishlist! In the past I skipped this at an outdoor market, because the cover was detoriated and I didn't see a name of the band on the cover🙂 I did not yet know that cover, that this was a Led Zeppelin record. Toto a band with nice songs. Have a nice week. Greetings Jason
I like Sandinista too. ♥️🤗 Great album. I do think of Stevie Ray Vaughan. I can still remember where I was when the news came across the radio. That was so sad and I can only imagine how Lynyrd Skynyrd fans must have felt. Thank you and take care.
There are accessories to remove static electricity from vinyl records. Then there are Ultra Sonic vinyl cleaners. I guess that's the best kind of cleaning
I'd love to have an ultrasonic cleaning machine. That would be wonderful. ♥️🤗 Thank you and take care.
Also thank you so much for the shout outs! XOXO!
I apologize for the delay. Thanks again for the terrific records. 🤗♥️
@@MelindaMurphy No problem Melinda! So happy you enjoyed them! One of my favorite songs is on the same titled album wild heart of the young! Reminds me of my youth! I love her relaxed voice, and her beautiful use of lyrics and music combined! Very underrated and that’s why I wanted to share those with you! Definitely The heart of a woman!
Some killer finds! I love that McCartney album, I have it CD and was hoping it would get the reissue in his Archive line, but so far nothing. Funny thing about Karla Bonoff, her biggest hit, “Personally” wasn’t written by her! That first album though is fantastic.
The McCartney albums seem to have stalled. There are so many of his records that need a reissue. This would be a good one that a lot of people would buy.
I assumed she wrote Personally. Interesting how that works. Lol. 🤗 Thank you and take care.
Re: special versions of Led Zep IV - just pre-ordered the Atlantic Records 75th anniversary, 180g audiophile, numbered, clear vinyl version of Led Zep IV from Popmarket. Hopefully will be a collectible item years from now.
I also have OP of Gary Wright Dream Weaver album (and his others as well), played only once (Technics/Shure V15-IV) to record to cassette.
Paul McCartney played my home town of Charlotte, NC in June 1993, think some of the concert may have ended up on the Tripping The Live Fantastic lp. Check out his album Off The Ground, which was featured at that concert.
That should be a cool Led Zeppelin release. 🤗♥️ I would love to see Off the Ground get a reissue. It's about time for it. Lol. Thank you and have a great weekend.
I still love seeing myself on the cover of Kiss Alive. 1975. I remember the concert like it was yesterday and I was only 16 years old.
Where are you on the Kiss Alive album? 😮😮😮
@@MelindaMurphy yes. Crazy…isn’t it?
@@MelindaMurphy I’m also in the Madonna Dress You Up video from 1985 at Cobo Hall here in Detroit. I can’t find myself in the Angel video. But I was right up in front for this concert. It was so fun. My dad dropped me and my friends up in front of Cobo Hall and waited for us to get out. He passed away in 1992.
Really cool records you show this week. Can was a great group but what was this thing about water in the Zeppelin (made in Sweden actually)
Thanks if you answer.....
I think that if you add water to the inner sleeves, it turns into a colored artwork. Very cool. Thank you and take care.
"The Dream Weaver" is a good album. I got my copy from an antique shop in their $1. bin(and a few more too!!) in California central coast town. I won't buy a trashed or abused record for any price. I've found some pretty good record deals in central coast antique stores and thrift stores. Glad you found some cool records which made you happy!
The Dream Weaver is usually a pretty inexpensive record. I definitely paid a little more for mine but it was clean and free of surface noise so it was worth it. I enjoy the record very much. Thank you and take care. 🤗♥️
I saw Paul on that tour at Madison Square Garden when I was 25 and I'm not ashamed to admit that I was in tears during parts of that show, because I was such a huge Beatles fan ever since I was little. To hear him play Beatle songs, and A lot of them, gave me chills. It was really the first time that he had played so many. Great show, Great memory.
I was nearly in tears when I saw him just a few years back so I completely understand. ♥️🤗 It kept getting me that I was watching one of The Beatles performing their songs. Incredible! Thank you and take care.
Don’t get me wrong The Beatles are wonderful, but I was generation X, all the songs that I resonate more with are songs of Paul McCartney and Wings
@@MelindaMurphy melinde I’m surprised because you’re approximately of the age that you would probably know Paul McCartney and wings more than the Beatles. Yes, the Beatles are the best but the wings were not slouches…. some really great music came from that group.
I was there, too. Got to check out that triple album. They don't make them like that anymore. I miss liner notes.
whats the smell ................ that surrounds us ( changed the words lol ) is the smell of autum and PSL andddddddddd another Awesome video that doesn't smell but it was Awesome.
Lol. 😄😄😄 Thank you and have a great week.
Funny thing about inner sleeves. I’ve been a huge fan of Dead or Alive. A middle 1980’s band. I found my Come Home With Me Baby 12” Single. Beat up..been throw a flood in my basement years ago. So I looked at the record. Definitely needed a good cleaning 🧼. I cleaned it up. Put it on my Record Player and it’s sounds great..not even warped. It’s on the Epic Record label and I’m surprised after all this record has been through..it sounds so good. But, I do need a good record cleaner.
Dead or Alive was a cool band. I'm so glad your record is alive and kicking. 🤗♥️ Lol.
@@MelindaMurphy I need to get a good inner sleeve for it. But, it definitely is still hanging in there. I’m playing Mad, Bad and Dangerous to Know right now. Peter Burns was great. He passed away in 2016 I think. But, I always loved Dead Or Alive. Not sure what kind of music 🎼 this band was. Alt Dance probably.
I need a good record clean 🧼 machine or kit. I still use a Kleenex and water 💦 to clean my old records. I think there’s probably a better way. But, it works. Plus I have a brush too.
@@MelindaMurphy it’s still sounds great 👍. These old 12” singles that came out in the 1980’s sound so good 😊. I’m not sure what they did back then. They just have a punch 🤛 that new vinyl doesn’t have anymore.
A slight variant on this experience is that while I have a bunch of the Classic records 180 and 200g releases of Zeppelin's albums - and they're one of my half-dozen favorite rock bands- I somehow never got one of II, despite my buying the ones I had at a time they were still in online stores (Too expensive to get yet another one at the time- hah! in light of later cost madness with these titles). The '14 Page reissues generally don't do it for me- so I decided to give a chance to a somewhat beat-up copy of II, in a beat-up lp jacket, that I'd gotten years before from my brother-in-law's collection that he'd dumped, but that I'd never gotten to because I just assumed it would sound like crap (I tend to take good care of LP jackets, and particularly good care of my LPs themselves)
Well, despite a lot more surface noise than I'd typically tolerate- there was a fair amount- the pressing was soooo dynamic and tonally rich and overall wounderful, particularly on side one, that I had to check if it was a Ludwig pressing. It wasn't, but it sounds incredibly dynamic for a standard release or an lp in general- what I've heard referred to as a 'hot stamper.' It's a testament to its slam and overall appeal that the frequent background crackling only minimally bugs me, that overall the listening experience still far beats either an early cd of it or the '14 edition- but would be a rule-out on just about any other record. Lesson learned- don't rule out an lp based on its appearance; conversely, of course, there are as we all know many LPs that look mint and lots of surface noise 'baked in.' But the LZ II experience of mine is happily the opposite kind of experience..
Wow! You have an awesome Led Zeppelin collection. I'm so glad you have a wonderful LZ 2 pressing and those Classic versions are some of the best. They are extremely expensive these days. Thank you and take care.
@@MelindaMurphy Thanks! To be clear, I only have Classic versions of 1, 3, 4, and ITTOD- I still need better copies of HOTH, PG, and Presence, though generally the Classics in M or NM are priced too high for me, so at some point I'd like to find the best affordable alternatives.
There's A LED ZEPPELIN CD BoxSet In Which Each Album Is In A Cardboard LP Type Sleeve...For In Through The Out Door LP~It Comes With The Other Album Cover Sleeves With The Different Photos To Interchange...
Very cool. 🔥♥️
I only recently discovered Krautrock, through Can and Tago Mago. I am amazed I was never really exposed to it, outside of Kraftwerk and Tangerine Dream. It just floors me, and is currently my favourite genre. Halleluhwah is absolutely epic, one of my favourite songs now. I have the release you showed, and was lucky enough to find an original German pressing at the den Bosch show in the Netherlands, I agree the recent release (it is a digtally sourced remaster) sounds good, but the original is truly amazing!
I will probably never see the original but it would be cool to own. This Can album is fantastic. ♥️ Thank you and take care.
Awesome video
Thank you! ♥️🤗
Bought tripping the light fantastic in 1990. Still sealed!!
Wow! Sealed records can be very valuable. Thank you and take care. ♥️🤗
yah reverse for me---I bought the Talking Heads 1985 album --just reissued for the 1st time. Now I see why it took so long. What a horrid album. Glad you found gems. Ohhh..I do like Hydra LP much more than The Toto ones with all the big hits.
Hydra is a hidden gem. ♥️ I like it too. Thank you and take care.
I bought Hydra in College, I loved Toto. I did buy it again but just didn’t like it as much. I do like 99. Their first album is by far my favorite.
For $3, I couldn't resist. I wanted to hear Ninty-nine on my new stereo equipment. I love that song. ♥️ The entire album is very good.
Simple Man by Lynyrd Skynyrd is a favorite. So many classic songs by that band. Thanks!
That's my favorite Lynyrd Skynyrd song. ♥️🤗 Thank you and take care.
Hi Melinda, back in 1989 Karla Bonoff put out an amazing album called New World. It was issued on the Gold Castle label. It is superb and rivals her Columbia albums. Check it out you won't regret it. She also did 2 albums with the band Bryndle. This band also featured Kenny Edwards, Wendy Waldman and Andrew Gold.
Thank you for the suggestions. I will have to keep my eyes open for those releases. Have a great weekend.
I checked out the Can album. Never heard of it. 1971?
Yes, it's an old record but very cool. Thank you and have a wonderful weekend.
Ive got several Mac Solo Pieces ....one if those albums was full of pain and angst over his horrid marital carastrophe .....taken for a ride .....i felt his pain ......thats songwriting 😢
Lyrics to great music can be crushing. 🥲 Thank you and take care.
Melinda -Led Zeppelin is a miracle of the 20th century-i love Led Zeppelin
I agree. They were incredible. ♥️🤗 Thank you and take care.
I love getting Krautrock albums. Recently got an original Amon Duul II - Yeti and it is mind blowing. Long Hair Records out of France reissues a lot of rarer Krautrock albums and they have all sounded great. Also, the recent reissue of Ash Ra Tempel - S/T album is very good.
Thank you for the suggestions. I also will buy anything on the Brain label. Thank you and take care.
Melinda, what do you think of Elvis Presley? Never see you show many of his albums. Also Roy Orbison. Thanks in advance.
I enjoy them both. My mom loved them and we listened to their music a lot as a little girl. ♥️ Thank you and take care.
I'm from Michigan, Romulus to be exact. What did you think?
I loved our stay there. The weather was beautiful. Ann Arbor is a wonderful town. Thank you and take care.
I hope you have a good cd player I haven't listened to it myself but marantz apparently got some hifi award for their cd player in 2021. at least one of their players can also play SACD. Denon is also interesting because they have players that sample up CD sound . Rega also has a CD player. and for those who want to enjoy music with surround sound from SACD, there is Sony's Blu-ray player and UHD Blu-ray player. other brands are also available
At some point, I may invest in a good CD player. The one I have is nothing special but it does work. Lol. Thank you and take care.
@@MelindaMurphy You may know that MOFI and analog productions also make SACD. if it says Hybrid, it means that it also has a track that can be played on a normal CD player, but then of course the sound quality will not be the same. SACD gives the possibility to transfer, for example, three channel stereo from a master tape from the 1950s. Or maybe the surround sound that was on vinyl records in the 70s. In those days you needed a decoder. now they can probably transfer the separate audio channels from the master tape to separate tracks on the disc. At least it would be possible. today there are also Blu-ray audio discs. But the other thing that makes them Thulin, among other things universal
@@MelindaMurphy By the way Your Amplifier. Does it have a digital audio input? ie own DA converter. So that it can decode the data itself and create sound. instead of the CD player doing it. Just connect toslink or Coaxial
What is it about That Smell u dont like? Lyrics or just not a song as a whole u dont care for? Just curious. That Smell for me, is one of my top favorite Skynyrd tunes. May i also ask how you much paid for the Skynyrd record. Thats a veryyyy nice copy!
I just don't like the way it's sung. That Smell just isn't a favorite for me. My best friend loves that song. 🤗 I paid $39 for the record because the condition was so nice. I thought it was a fair price. Thank you and take care. 🤗♥️
I’m into 70’s 80’s & 90’s music 🎶 on vinyl somebody I know gave me some Jazz vinyl I like them I never was into them before now I’m into listening to Jazz music 🎶 😂lol it’s too funny for me
It's very cool to be given jazz records. They are hard to find where I live. Thank you and take care. 🤗♥️
Well Aumgn is apparently an Alistair Crowley incantation so yeah very fitting for Halloween.
I agree MCA pressings are pretty hit and miss. Usually the black/rainbow (1973 design) and the Beige (1978) design are usually decent sounding. The post 1980 rainbow and clouds pressings are usually horrible as they were trying to do everything on the cheap. I also never liked the quality of 1980s Arista pressings.
I have always confused Karla Bonoff and Jennifer Warnes. They sound alike to me.
I agree that the MCA blue rainbow label is the worst. Lol.
I agree that Jennifer and Karla sound similar. Great singing. 🔥🤗♥️ Thank you and take care.
Record faif is Oct.14 &15.
That would be awesome. ♥️🤗
Go Bucs!😉
Michigan is a great state. ♥️🤗
How about cant find the judge on Dreamweaver? I love that song.
That's one of the better songs. ♥️🤗 Thank you and take care.
The tan color MCA label that came out in 1977 is so bland it does make one think the record will sound bland. Of course its not true but...the myth....
It's a very bland label. Lol. Thankfully, this record sounds great. Have a wonderful weekend! ♥️🤗
So glad to see your Karla Bonoff goodies! I always supported her since hearing her first album in 1979 was glad that "Personally" hit a million copies in 1982 and what a beauty she was with a great Linda Ronstadt-style voice - I never had a problem with Led Zeppelin first pressings - Ahmet Ertegun at Atlantic Records always made sure the mastering was top shelf and Jimmy Page always give him notes - I couldn't keep up with Paul McCartney's Live Collections during the '90s and "Light Fantastic" I passed on - Great video Melinda❤- See You Next Week!
I remember hearing Personally as a kid. ♥️ She has a beautiful voice. My husband likes her too.
This Led Zeppelin reissue is very good. What a classic album. ♥️🤗 Thank you and take care.
Really enjoyable Melinda!
The copy of Hydra - what a steal! Toto’s first few albums sound really great. They are so well produced and recorded. Classic rock from that period!
Some years ago, when I was releasing some of my music on vinyl ( I intend to do it again by the way, as streaming is essentially robbery!! The late David Crosby and I had many one to one twitter discussions yearsback about it. )
Anyway, I took my analogue master tapes to Porky’s Prime Cuts and met George Peckham. As you know he’d cut The Beatles, Kate Bush and so many of the great EMI artists. I spent a few hours with him, sitting right next to the lathe as it was doing the cut. He had some fascinating stories and anecdotes about his ‘tweaking’ of levels and EQ. This was a really happy memory and a special meeting. Needless to say, he wrote in the out groove #PORKY PRIME CUT on the A side and ‘SCHOOL FOR SECRETS’ on the flip side. I remember him misspelling ( or perhaps it was Kate ) ‘Remember Yourself’ on her album Lionheart. It is inscribed ‘REMBER YOURSELF’
Ah, the fascination of the LP is boundless! Best wishes! Stewart 🙏🏻
Oh wow! What a cool story. It must have been wonderful to meet him. 🤗 Thank you for sharing that. Take care.
Toto Hydra, with "99". I also love that track. It just keeps flowing along before it closes, and the guitar and piano work is gorgeous. Excellent taste!! 😁
I agree. The piano and amazing guitar make that song. I just love it and it sounds beautiful on vinyl. ♥️ Thank you and take care.
I love Love Is Alive! What a great groove that song has.
I agree. It's a great song. ♥️ Thank you and take care.
I am really having a hard time seeing you in a Michigan T Shirt. Never owned one, never will, go NE Cornhuskers! Thank you for the shout out. We will meet up, look forward to meet you and Phillip, no bourbon please lol. Downtown Ann Arbor is great. I use to stay there some for work and loved eating downtown. I have done a lot of Xmas shopping there. There record stores are great and they have a huge record show. I do love the song Dream Weaver. OG Clash, must have in my book. It’s okay to burn the sweatshirt Glad you enjoyed MI.
I'm sorry to offend you with my sweatshirt. Lol. I know you're a Nebraska fan. 😀 There is a chance our daughter may do her residency at University of Michigan. Ann Arbor is a lovely place and the shopping and restaurants are wonderful. Thank you and enjoy your weekend.
You pulled some clean looking OG’s, between that “Street Survivors” & “London Calling”! Matt/Prime Analog Records has some of the most unique tastes that he shares on his channel. 🤘🏻
I can't see a Gino Vannelli record without thinking of him. Lol. ♥️🤗 He's awesome. Thank you and take care.
Great score on the OG London Calling with the hype. Looks in great condition. I dont typically sit on the floor and dig in the under crates. You make me want to rethink this.
I was very surprised to find a beautiful London Calling original in the bottom bin. You just never know. 🤗♥️ Thank you and take care.
I am from Michigan. While in college From the late 70s we drove 45 minutes from East Lansing east to Ann Arbor to the old School Kids Records. What a store! They intoduced me to some great music. They had a whole 20 ft wide section of import records - UK, German and Japanese. I have a killer collection of first press imports from them. They closed in the early 90s. Encore Records is just down the street and I still go today when visiting family. Went many times to the State Theatre next door to see great concerts over the years. There were also some cool punk stores in the early 80s. Glad you really enjoyed your stay
I loved Ann Arbor and they still have great and friendly record stores. We had such a good time. Thank you and have a great weekend.
😊 great video Melinda miss those days of record store shopping especially in LA where the stores were all close together in location quick note about the Lynyrd Skynyrd Street survivors album that wasn't original band that you mentioned Steve gaines replaced Ed King who was big in writing freebird and workin for MCA also Bob Burns who Artemis the drummer replaced also I have a Hydra by Toto album signed by the band
I knew there had been some member changes. I shouldn't have said they were all original members. Shopping in LA would be pretty amazing. ♥️ Thank you and enjoy your weekend.
Love the shirt!!! How did you like the traffic and parking in Ann arbor? Lol I live about 25 miles east closer to Detroit and I rarely make it out there because of those two things. Then again I've got six places within a 10 -mile radius of me that I can buy music from.
There was a parking garage that we used and it only cost a few bucks. I didn't think it was bad at all. It's a great city with wonderful restaurants and the record stores were cool. 🤗 Thank you and take care.
Your video brought me back to my Ann Arbor days as a grad student of U of M. Unfortunately, I was only collecting CDs then (plus I was a poor student) so I never even browsed the great record stores. But I will the next time I'm in the area.
Thanks for another great video!
It's a beautiful campus. ♥️ I enjoyed it very much. Thank you and take care.
Hey Melinda! Another great video. Sorry it waAnn Arbor. I’m an Ohio State Buckeye. But I love the Beatles. Love the record haul you got!!
Oh! Haha! The Buckeyes are cool. 🤗 I just assumed you were talking about a team from Michigan. Thank you and take care.
Love your U of M hoodie!! I’m from Michigan!! I live north of Detroit about 40 minutes!! I never get down to Ann Arbor area to buy records!! But I do a lot in the upper region of Metro Detroit!! My favorite record from this video is your street survivors find which I have one too with flames!!
We did drive around a little in the nicer parts of the Detroit suburbs. The whole area is nice. It's a beautiful state. ♥️ Thank you and take care.
Nice selection. Toto's Hydra is great. You have an excellent record collection. I enjoy your videos.
I am enjoying Hydra. Thank you and have a great weekend. ♥️🤗
Steve is the best! 😊
I just found Tripping the live Fantastic at a record fare this spring (I’ve owned it on CD since it came out but love my vinyl copy).
Yet again some great finds Melinda, thank you for yet another great video 😊
It's great to have the vinyl version of Tripping the Live Fantastic. 🤗♥️ It's a hard one to find. Thank you and enjoy your weekend.
@@MelindaMurphy Thank you Melinda, likewise 😊
Thumbs up as always! Cheers!! This channel is relaxing
Thank you so much. 🤗♥️
Melinda pray for me I have Covid-19 and am very sick. I feel soo bad.
I am praying. 🙏♥️ I'm sorry to hear this. Get well soon.
how many records do you have
looks like the house is full of them 😀👍
I have a little over 2,000. I am considering letting go of some of my duplicate copy records. Thank you and take care.
Good morning Melinda
Hello! 😀
Some very nice finds Melinda! I have a few of those, different pressings no doubt, but I love Hydra, Dream Weaver, LZ 4 and others! Cheers
Thank you! I was happy to find those wonderful records. 🤗♥️ Take care.
You got some nice pick ups there. London Calling is great and I also have an original. A couple of my Zeppelin records are the '77 pressings and they sound great. I did pickup a stylus brush and a set of the coasters from GrooveWasher....those coasters are so nice! Thanks for the discount! Great video and take care!
I'm so glad you are happy with your coasters. They're adorable. ♥️ I'm glad you used the discount code. 🤗
I have had great luck with the '77 Led Zeppelin reissues. Thank you and take care.
YOU HAVE SOME VERY COOL RECORDS THERE. THANK YOU. LOVE YOUR CHANNEL AND VIDEOS 🍏
Thank you kindly. 🤗♥️
Awesome pickings! Always fun to be able to discover new record stores in places you visit!
I agree. Ann Arbor has great record stores. Thank you and have a great weekend.
Great video Melinda! Nice finds!! When Mofi released Street survivors they used the original cover.
Yes, the original cover has been used again which I find interesting. It seems a little disrespectful but maybe the families gave their approval. The original cover does look cool. Thank you and take care.
@@MelindaMurphy Yes I heard about the record company pulling the original cover when the plane crash occurred.
Take care my friend.
$2.99...Thats Rather More My Kind Of Price Range...
That's a bargain. 😀
@@MelindaMurphy Indeed...I Was Paying That For Some Brand New Records~In The Early 1980s~From The Classic Woolco & Woolworths Stores...Which Sadly Closed By The Mid To Late 1980s...😒
Melinda just magnificent choices in music! Love the video! I have been suprised in the past its always great when it happens!
I love good surprises. 😄 Thank you and take care.
Love the lynyrd skynyrd record really clean copy, great job on the video hope you have a blessed and amazing week. Keep being you"😊 👍👍💯
Thank you so much. ♥️🤗 Have a blessed week. 🤗♥️
Great finds! McCartney is amazing! The Zeppelin album in pristine condition is great! Usually a rough one bc played lots! You are correct when you see the VRP inner sleeves (valuable record protecter)sleeves were from Discwasher ! I have many of those! Original LS album is a super-find! Pretty rare! A must have for the Skynyrd collector! Haha going in the bins below kills my knees so usually pass unless I see something in the front😢
Great video and find’s Melinda!
I agree. I'm too old to dig in the lower bins but I did find some cool records.
The Lynyrd Skynyrd album is a hard one to find and the story surrounding it is so sad. Thank you and take care. ♥️🤗
The flame cover was reinstated for a 90’s Gold CD (“MCA Master” - I think that was the series at the time), and the standard expanded CD release (and the two CD Deluxe Edition). Has been the standard cover ever since. (And, Street Survivors actually showed where Skynyrd was possibly going, with both Ronnie and Steve both doing lead vocals.)
Oh god! The tan label era! I never liked that design, or the more known Tan Rim design…thankfully it was only used from apparently late 1977 to 1980.
Love that Paul McCartney. I saw him on that tour - the only time I've seen him - was a wonderful show!
Wow! You saw an amazing show. ♥️ I'm glad to at least have the album. Thank you and take care.
Nice pick ups, Melinda! Gotta admit, I'm not a fan of "Hydra", it's the only Toto album that I think maybe should never have been released, especially as the follow up to their debut album. "99" is a great song, but I saw them on the "Hydra" tour, and they were AWFUL! As for the Karla Bonoff, what a great VCLT - that debut album is a MASTERPIECE, particularly "Someone To Lay Down Beside Me", one of the best songs of all time. Love that debut album for sure! She should have been bigger than she ever was as an artist, without question. Take care!
I agree. She should have been up there with Linda Ronstadt in popularity. She is very talented.
I'm surprised Toto was so bad. What a disappointment. Thank you and take care. ♥️🤗
Remember getting my original copy of Street Survivors. If you look there is a list of places Skynyrd would have done a concert at. Remember an Interview at the local radio station WYNF with Ronnie and Gary, maybe Allen not sure. The last time Ronnie Van Zant would sing Freebird in St. Petersburg, Lakeland and Greenville, South Carolina. Been to Gillsburg and meet Lola Easly. Been to Riverside Memorial Cemetery and Jacksonville Memory Gardens. Just thinking what a Talent Steve Gaines was. Wondering what Steve, Ronnie, Gary and Allen would come up next Following Street Survivors. God Bless Johnny and Rickey and the rest of Skynyrd. And bless the first responders who saved 20 people that tragic night in Mississippi. Have a good one Melinda.
I'm too young to really remember that but I'm sure it was heart breaking for the families and fans. They made some great music and unfortunately, their lives were just too short. Thank you and take care.
I had to laugh when you mentioned the MCA label and Elton John records. In that collection I was given a couple of years ago, there were some Elton John LPs in it and I was really disappointed by how non hi-fi they sounded. They were really dull and honestly terrible sounding I thought.
I was out of town on Saturday and when I was coming back Saturday evening I was explaining that same exact thing about those Elton John MCA titles from the 1970s to the two friends I was riding with. Somebody had brought him up in the car and it brought that to mind. I've never heard anybody else mention this until your video today Melinda.
I'm going to have to look and see but I've noticed the same exact thing with 1970s John Denver albums. I just looked and it's not MCA but RCA that put those out. I've only got two that came in that collection that was given to me. I'm not really a collector of him even though I grew up and have fun memories that do go with certain songs he made popular back in the '70s. But the audio quality and sound was just so muffled sounding to me with the mid-range and high end frequencies just not being present is the best way I can think of describing those 1970s Elton John and John Denver albums. But on the other hand, I've also got some great sounding MCA 1970s records and probably RCA too. So I don't know what the story is on why those popular artists didn't have better sounding albums?
I'm glad you had a good trip seeing your daughter and record shopping. I actually went to a ham radio convention but came back with some Linda Ronstadt, Robin Trower, and a few other LPs that one of the ham radio vendors was selling at a table. They were all 1970s originals, used, and at a $1.67 a piece and being extremely clean and incredible sounding, that was kind of the icing on the cake for a good weekend trip :-)
Brian in Fort Worth 🎶
I just haven't had great luck with the sound quality of MCA labels, until now. The blue rainbow pressings are the worst. Lol. It was great to see our girl. ♥️ Thank you and take care.
I love Gary Wright “The Dream Weaver”! I love the music and it’s an excellent sounding record! Unfortunately it was sold off with a huge chunk of my record collection. I definitely need to rebuy it. I also LOVE Karla Bonoff! Also had all her albums but, sold them off. I have a lot of vinyl I need to rebuy!
It's a little tricky to find The Dream Weaver in excellent condition but there are a lot of quiet passages so a great copy is a must. I am probably going to let some of my collection go and I always worry that I will let something go that I regret later. I guess that happens and isn't the end of the world. Lol. Thank you and enjoy your weekend.
Good Morning 🌞 Melinda - I used to live up north in Traverse City, Mi where Steve Carlson has some stores he overlooks & Madonna has her Cicconne Vineyards. Some fine wine 🍷. Love The Clash & Can & Gary Wright records. Everybody should own & enjoy London Calling. 😊
I agree. London Calling belongs in every vinyl collection. ♥️🤗I didn't know Madonna's family was in the wine business. 🤗♥️ Thank you and take care.
Always love your vids.. I just got a hold of a really nice copy of red rose Speedway. Btw I just got my Halloween Horror soundtracks and contest video posted. The vinyl spirits were restless. I think I heard them whisper your name. (And others in the VC) 😁
Thank you. Red Rose Speedway is a good album. ♥️ Best wishes for your contest. It sounds like a cool one. Thank you and take care. ♥️🤗
A home-run right out of the shoot. I think Paul's live fantastic is my favorite live with a second only to Paul is live. ( I'm screaming on that record. ) I'm glad you had a good time. I went to my local half-price books and records and found the Beatles Thirty days in 1963. I was sealed and played great for 14.99 . I also bought a 1st pressing of days of future passed . That's the first record for g3.Great picks all in all. I went to Tidal and listened to the Can album and it was pretty good. Question for you, have you looked at rsd black friday and found anything to your liking? I have a couple must haves my self. Have yourself a great day and give a call when you have time. I have important to talk to about. Take Care. ❤
Hey Mike! This is a great Paul live concert. I'm thrilled to have it. There are a few records I would like to have for RSD. Nothing earth shattering but that's probably a good thing. Lol. Thank you and take care. 🤗♥️
Hello Melinda ! Making surprise finds in a different store is alway a joy. You made a great haul. This past weekend I went to the more ”serious” collector store in our neighbour town. And where I expected to find mostly obscure stuff , I found a whole row of crates with non sorted stuff that the regular customers have no interest in. All mostly forgotten mainstream pop music from my party days in the 80’s :
Q-feel
The Flirts
Bolland
Indochine
Nena
Kajagogo
Men without hats
F R David
Devo
Telex
Data
Landscape
Between $2-$5 EACH !!!!!!!
I’m going back this weekend. I’m gonna hit the ”80’s soundtrack” crates , HARD !!!!!
Take care /R (A at work)
Oh wow! Very nice. I used to see that Kajagoogoo album often but it's pretty tough to find these days. Thank you and take care.
@@MelindaMurphy : Sorry , me again. Annette says I must mention that the Q-feel album (the only one they released) is like a time-machine for us. Back to the early 80’s when we met. Teeny-boppy synthpop we danced to. They had the song ”Dancing in heaven” in the Sarah Jessica Parker/Helen Hunt movie ”Girls just want to have fun” from 1985. Aah , sweet youth. Where have you gone? Take care A&R
I have "pipes of peace " record, that's the only "Paul McCartney " record other than the few "Beatles " records I own! I love it! It's obvious he cares about audio! 😊
His records always sound great. This live album is no exception. Thank you and take care.
Great albums Melinda! I love to hear your stories on how you get them too. Have a great week and hope all is well with you and family!
Thank you so much! Have a great week ♥️🤗
@@MelindaMurphy You're welcome! Thank you! 🥰
Nice collection there my friend
Thank you Curtis. Take care. ♥️🤗
Hi Melinda. Ann Arbor is the birthplace of Iggy Pop if I'm not mistaken. At least, that's where The Stooges were formed.
I didn't know that. How cool! 😀♥️ Thank you and take care.
