I’ll go to a record show, but I’m a thrifter/$1-2 dollar bin kind of guy at heart…so I tend to purchase mostly from the cheapie bins at record shows and will only buy more obscure Hawaiian records for $$ at a show. I
Ya me too. That’s why I was blown away by the deals I found. You just have to be selective.
Dude, did you really go to a record show without cash?
I was thinking the same thing.
Super find on that White Christmas box! Way cool LPs too.
I love digging at record shows like that. I brought a small backpack to carry everything at the show and needed it. I picked up so many great comedy records for cheap. Now if only there were more shows near me...
The further along you get in collecting, the more you can go to these shows and say, got that, have this, don’t need the other, nice but too expensive. I’m grateful I got what I got when I did, including CDs. Don’t need as much.
Thanks for taking us along with you!!!! Nothing like a jammed packed record show full of records, collectibles and yes people. You did sound overwhelmed in this vid but the more records dealers and people the better, just me opinion.
If you were overwhelmed by that show and that little crowd, you better not ever go to the Austin show!!
It never made any sense to me that an official soundtrack to White Christmas has never been released 😔 It's such a classic movie and easily my dream record ❤️❤️❤️
Exactly!!!!!
That makes NO sense to me either! That should happen!
@@BJWanlund Hopefully in the future one will get made. I doubt it, but you never know. I want the original Sisters song with Rosemary Clooney and Vera Ellen 👍 So iconic! ❤️
I bought an ancient four record set of Bing Crosby Christmas songs ....when I opened it ,one disc was missing .....I've never played it or checked for White Christmas,but I'm about to !
That Metallica ride the lightning record was looking pretty good. As well as the receiver below it. Thanks for taking us along to the record & CD show. 😎👍
I’ve attended a couple shows and one thing that surprised me is the lack of organization for most dealers and that they overpack the boxes so it’s hard to flip through the albums.
I find about half the dealers don’t have the albums in alpha order.
I hate that when I’m looking for specific records but I’ve definitely bought things that I wasn’t looking for simply because I stumbled upon it.
As you discovered prices are all over the place. I’ve found it wise to resist buying if the price is too much and if the vinyl is not in VG+ as there usually is another one somewhere else in the room. Most dealers offer a discount if you ask.
Like you I’m vaccinated but I too wear a mask in crowds. It’s not worth the risk.
Glad you went to your first Record Fair,- my favourite one is the Bristol Record Fair on several floors. Great fun and you see all sorts. Me and my mate tend to start in the cheap stands ( £1 or £2 ) as you can take a punt on something interesting without taking a hit. My suggestion is to take a record bag. After a while, you get to recognise certain dealers, and most of them are happy to chat. Do hope you get to another one soon.
Man, when I did my first and only Denver-area record show, it was over 20 years ago. I bought two records that day, which I still have.
It was interesting to see how much things have changed since then. I was expecting to say "very little" but really , back then it was mostly high-interest LPs and not much else. Seeing lots more variety here a quarter century later on. Thanks for the overview.
I am so impressed with your selection! Any collector who revels over purchases of Decca's Bing Crosby White Christmas featuring Peggy Lee plus Patsy Cline and Peggy Lee albums is a friend of mine! I understand about the overwhelming feeling at those record shows, I go in excited and five minutes later, I've forgotten my name let alone what it is I'm looking for. Kudos to you for protecting your family by wearing a mask. Great video.
Thank you so much!!!
I am 42 years old right now... Since kindergarden I would always sing and sing all the time... And my friends when we finished high school bought me the coolest gift ever... A jukebox and it was given to me at our school prom... They had bought this for me cause they told me that whenever they where feeling down my singing would bring their spirit's up.... Anyways... Why do I sing so much ? My dad would always put music around the house. And also my uncles on my mother's side played guitar and where absolute music lovers and had an incredible vinyl collection... Both of them commited suicide in there 20's a couple of years a part from untreated depression... So my mother got their guitars and vinyl's and then gave them to me... I have over a 1000 vinyls 33's and 45's... Once in a while I'll undust some and have a listen... I even have unopened new vinyl's which where never opened. I do not dare open them either. HAHA that was my story :)
LIKE number 3 which I did with glee. :)
I went to my first record fairs last month, and can't wait for the next one. I was warned they are addictive and it is true! I am in Melbourne Australia and our record fairs are much smaller than the ones in Europe and the USA.
Great video! Coincidentally I had almost exactly the same experience a week ago. I went to my first record show (not ever, but in 5+ years) here in Toronto and my feelings were the same as yours. First, "Omg, there is so much stuff here!" and be overwhelmed. And then, "Omg, it is so busy I can't get to any of the boxes!" And finally, "Omg, I don't think I'm ready for these crowds yet." Like you, I am vaxed/boosted but it was just too crowded for my comfort level, even though 75% of us were still opting to wear masks. One interesting thing to note: this record show had a $5 entry fee (Canadian money is less valuable, though lol!), but they offered early entry (maybe an hour earlier?) for $25. I am kind of thinking it might be worth it, just for a more relaxed experience (and actually get to some of the boxes I never got near!).
Great to see such a huge crowd, although I'd be uncomfortable there, too. You got some great prices -- it pays to shop around. I used to go to record shows all the time back in the '70s and '80s, but haven't been to one since getting back into vinyl a couple years ago. They're running regularly in my area, so I'll probably start going again.
This had to be a JOY!! I need to see if we here in the Seattle area have these,awesome share friend
Wow what a crowd
I've been to several in my area. I've found really good deals, and met nice sellers. It's like eBay, some good, some too expensive, but you don't have to pay shipping.
That was a pretty cool event. Wish I lived in Colorado. I would absolutely have gone!
Great Patsy Cline albums! Thank you for your video!
Thank you for watching!
I’d go to a record show later than earlier, particularly an hour or so before they close. Why? While it’s true that at least some of the choice records would be taken, it’s also true that towards the end of the day, dealers are more willing to negotiate a lower price so they don’t have to take as many records back to their shop. I’ve saved several dollars this way. As long as you’re not offering $5 for an album they’re selling for $50. As I said, the trade off is that there may not be as many records left to choose from. But if you’re not picky about what you want-I.e., come in absolutely determined to find THE record, no matter what-you’ll still find some that if they weren’t already bargains, the seller more than likely will work with you. Obviously this is NOT about records that were already being sold for $4!!!
I used to go to several a month when we lived in St. Pete. Florida back in 83-98. Jim
Was a good show
I immediately noticed the John F. Kennedy album as you crawled through one of the crates. I may have that one somewhere in the 6 crates of albums I'm about to give to my oldest nephew.
Love the vinyl you got. Peggy Lee and Patsy Cline are two of my favorites.
Wow, I haven't been to a record show in years! I guess they're just not popular in my City. That sure brought back memories.
I like my copy of The Patsy Cline Story (Decca, DXB 176). probably my favorite album! Good for you braving the show. I would be overwhelmed.
Thank you! DXB-176 is a great album and superior to the later non-gatefold editions. 👍
7:06 The Banana Splits!!!
Shortly after this video was made, I was at ProgPower USA in Atlanta, Georgia, which is a power and progressive heavy metal festival. There is a vendor room where attendees can buy all kinds of CDs, records, t-shirts and most other types of music/band related merch. That is the closest I've been to what would be considered a "record show". Since that is the primary genre of music that I listen to, I find all kinds of awesome albums there. Since I have to fly there, it is difficult to take vinyl LPs back in my luggage and not want to risk damaging them, thus I typically end up buying mostly CDs with the occasional vinyl record if I find something really cool. I will admit that I am not a fan of Patsy Cline, but looks like you scored some nice pieces there. I will admit that I am jealous of that White Christmas record set you scored there. Especially for only $2. That Metallica "Ride The Lightening" album that I spied in your video looked pretty cool and I probably would've grabbed that. I also would've loved to look through that bin of "Rock Musicals" that I saw there in the video. I may have to check if there are any good record shows/fairs in this area (there ought to be, considering this is the Washington, DC area 😲).
Great video as usual. We used to have big record fairs here in Brighton, England, at the Brighton Centre, which looks a bit like the centre you're at. They finished long before Covid kicked in though. We still have a small record fair once a month which is happening in two weekends time, and we have loads of 2nd hand record shops here. For a vinyl junkie like me it's heaven. I prefer original recordings if I can get them rather than modern remasters, so fairs and 2nd hand record shops are where I go.
the one i go to is frustrating as well. there's one tomorrow and i'm debating on going. the worst is when someone just pops in the section you were going to next. i too left early last time. 🤬
I'm glad record stores still don't charge admission but I know the fee goes to renting the room at these events. You really need to bring singles and fives and tens so they don't need to look for change. Good idea being safe. Covid is picking up a bit here in NY,they say. The Patsy Clines were nice to find as well as Whit Christmas, but the Peggy Lee is on an unknown label so are they the real hits or some radio soundtracks? At 7:09 it looked like a mono Sgt. Pepper album.
I’ve been to two record shows, and it was okay. Waaaay too many people. Got great deals each time, even if what I wanted were kinda common. I felt every bit of your anxiety though, dude! Great video per usual!
I was thinking of going to go to a local record show but after this I’m decided to pass. Will be going to a Robyn Hitchcock Show next weekend so need to stay healthy Lol Thank You
These things are all over the place! For some, its even worth saving all the $ youll spend on vinyl for a year and just go balls out @ a record fair! I didnt see much super high dollar stuff there, like $500+ records. Glad you finally made it out to one, ive been attending the WFMU record fair here in the northeast for almost 10 years!
i run when theres too many human to,hope you had a good time
My first record show more than overwhelming. I got an anxiety attack. Next time, I will money. Cash for the records and cash for a cab.
I think the secret with those sorts of shows is to have a list of possible purchases before you set out, otherwise you tend to end up being totally confused about the whole thing - at least, that's been my experience.
That’s a really good idea!
@@Recordology I live in New Zealand, and some decades ago now a large record importer in Auckland hired what is called the World Trade Centre building in Wellington - a HUGE room - for a Friday evening and decked it out with CDs much like the show you visited. There was one main difference: all the discs were brand new. There were hundreds of people there and I remember buying quite a few discs. Sadly the company never put on another similar show - maybe the cost of hiring the room was just too much. I thought it was a huge success.
Never been to a "record show", but that is because most of them are too far away. However there are two booth style shops (one in a antique mall the over in a higher end boutique) that sell records (one sells new & old the other is old only) both of them are far more reasonably priced ($1~$8 depends on condition/rarity) except if their First Prints of acts like The Beatles & Pick Floyd (those are expensive as heck.) The records that caught my eye was the two David Bowie albums (though I would like to get the Scary Monster album more than Station To Station.) I think that the two shop owners attend these shows for new stuff to sell. The best deal I got at the shop was The Beach Boys Endless Summer (first print) in good condition (gate fold is a tad worn is the only issue) for $5.
I’ve really gotten into collecting Jamaican dancehall reggae 45s lately. They must have vocals on both sides, though, as I kind of feel ripped off when I get one with a song and its version (instrumental) on the other side. The Star Wars riddim is an example of not having vocals on both sides. My favorites are the ones with two songs by the same artist on the same riddim! Peace.
Amazing place..the BIG question is....Did Michael Rose ever find his way to the front...I heard that Rose Michael,and her son George actually did make it....!!!
Lol
Quick way to piss off sellers is to not push the records back after you've flicked through them.
Look like an awesome records show I've heard about them from a lots people they been to them before but for me too many people and I would wear a mask to be on the safe side.
2 dollars to get in?! It's like 10 bucks for any gun show! lol
IM only familer with the Color Decca label from the who to the beatles.
Record ology this cool your fist Record viny show very over whelming
Thanks for sharing your trip to the record show. Good to see so many people shopping for records! I don’t like crowds either and I would have definitely masked up. Extra precaution can’t hurt. The White Christmas and Patsy Cline albums were great finds!
You flipped a Petula Clark LP over without even a look-see of its cover when you were in one of the boxes--which also contained the same Peggy Lee LP that you bought. But I don't know if you went back to that box or if you found the same Peggy Lee LP in yet another box elsewhere in the room. But those two should ALWAYS be a pair in anybody's collection, IMHO.
Beatles are so over
Over played
Bring cash to these things………….
Ok I have NO idea how you could be a greatest hits beatles fan. Very few of the songs they wrote arent hit worthy or actual hits
Do cash business NOW ,before digital currency takes over ,and every transaction is monitored ....because they want the Pennies On Your Eyes !.😂😂😂😂😂
Mask? You’re in the minority there. Isn’t that very uncomfortable? I thought we were past all that now.
I know right….probably fine but just wanted the extra precaution.
We are absolutely not past it. It’s still wise to wear a mask in a crowd.
If you don't want everything Beatles .....you're not a big fan !....sorry ☹️😉
I said I was a greatest hits fan not a big fan …. Sorry 😞
