You can’t go wrong with a dependable source of vinyl. I was thankful For my source for about ten years. My collection wouldn’t be what it Is today if I hadn’t met Ray Luter
Yeah.. Your Ray, and my Bill ! Ted has been awesome with our trading as well ! I remember you speaking of your old source before.. I totally lucked into meeting Bill, but that's what it takes, sometimes
JT, What a great attitude. We're all in this together in this thing called life. I think the others digging will help you unearth some more great records. Boomtown Rats best of! Free...wow. Love the Motels. I'm also enjoying music I didn't care for years ago. Pop being one genre, country being another. Thanks for sharing!
Hey there, Ralph.. I agree with Country, when it's good, its... Great ! Country Rock has always been a genre that I love and grew up with here in the western U.S. I really like this bundle of records from Bill's, and have even more from 2 previous trips over there. We are good friends now and fair to each other ! Both the Free record and debut Motels sound terrific.. What a perfect hobby ! Haha 😊 Thanks, always..We are in this together !
Another superb finds from the garage video. It's not surprising other people have cottoned onto Bill's. Nice BB King, Boomtown Rats, Bowwowwow and Motels.
I dropped this video right before our journey over here, Mike.. I made one last trip over to the garage, and the other guys didn't show up, which I don't mind now, at all. They are good hard core collectors and fair ! They can't believe I had this to myself for over a year. I think the biggest bundle I had over there in one trip was 45 records.. So, 20 or so is plenty each time, and I still have room for more ! Haha. Cheers from Bang Saray Thailand 🇨🇷
Great album, and glad that I rediscovered how good their debut is. My roommate from '79 ended up playing bass with Martha Davis down in LA back in the 90s for a short while.. He was thrilled about that ! Thanks 🎵
Thank you.. I enjoy flip vids as well, always have ! We're over in Thailand on vacation, and record shopping has been good, but Bill's garage has been a special experience, for sure ! Appreciate you, Jason 🎵
Ooh You got The Ramsey Lewis Trio, You can never go wrong with those Guys. Awesome Pick ups J.T. A lot of great Jazz titles I saw there. So Cool. Enjoy!!!
Yeah, Robbie.. I did pick up the Ramsey Lewis, and the Jackie McLean plays beautifully ! A later pressing, but who cares? It sounds amazing ! I dropped this video right before leaving for Japan and Thailand again. Having a blast over here, and of course, I'm bringing records home ! 🎵
This garage is full of non-stop delights. Very interesting Hendrix. I've had New Boots and Panties for ages; it's a classic record. I have never seen that Boomtown Rats comp before. Excellent, again.
I will have been gone for a few weeks. It will be interesting to see what I can find next time in April over at Bill's. Hope all is well in Toronto 😏 I guess Ben will make his way to your city in June ?
Thanks ! I spun every single one of those puppies, and now we're traveling for my son's spring break.. Of course, I hit up a few record shops along the way..
Bill’s Garage, the gift that just keeps giving! 😁 Well done JT, we’d all like to be standing next to you with all those treasures! I do agree with you about age. I’m the same, when I younger I was a musical fascist, but now my tastes are very broad and I’m totally open to new bands/ genres etc. Hope all’s well with you my friend. Mike
I just came back online, Mike. Over in Thailand, again ! Met up with Roy Goad, a Londoner that lives here full time. He watches several of us VCer's. I'm, of course, bringing home a bunch of records, and I just now turned 67 here at midnight ! Really a wonderful holiday for the 3 of us, and Japan was amazing again ! I'm staying in touch mildly with you guys ! Cheers from Bang Saray 🇨🇷 It's fun discovering music that passed us by..
@@jtsrecordroom3963 oh wow…..Happy Birthday JT! 🎉🎉 Great to meet up with folks on holiday and share experiences. Keep buying those records and I look forward to seeing the results when you get back. Take care you 3 and have a great time my friend! Mike
So many! If you ever need a digging assistant, I'm in Washoe Valley. I know someone in LA that might pass out when I tell him how many Petula Clark records there were.
Thanks , I should have mentioned " Twilight World" as well. You're right about this one, I hadn’t heard " Breakout" in so long.. It was just .. joyful ! Thanks for this 🎵
JT the vinyl miner 😅 I can't imagine what great records are still to be discovered in Bills garage. I'm glad you picked up the Live Stiffs album. I was lucky enough to see this your when they came to Leeds. Cheers Mike
You're gonna kill me, Mike. I forgot it, I had a big stack... hope it's still there when I get back home ( I'd bet it will be ) We're on holiday, again, and I just saw a copy in Tokyo for much more than Bill would charge. Cheers from Thailand !
JT, oh wow the Jimi Hendrix soundtrack. I have it as well but your copy looks so much cleaner. Great find! Kampuchea is also on of my faves! OMG, Free! I want “Tons of Sobs” but I never see it out there in the wild.
I was amazed to pick that pink island label Free out of there ! It amazingly plays dead quiet ! No wonder people go on about original UK press or Virtigo swirl British records !
Thanks, Dean, for telling me about Amon Duul.. The German electronic album is very good, and I'm glad that I brought it home ! I'm listening to Amon Duul now.. Cheers 🎵
The Bill Withers Live isn't in good condish, I do want a copy, and Amon Duul is very, very interesting ! I couldn't sample it streaming, so next time I'm over there, I'll grab it ! Cool, and thanks again 🎵
Dean.. I listened to Amon Duul II just now. It's one of the most amazing pieces of music that I've heard recently.. Man, I need one ! The jacket was not good, but again.. I hope it's still there for me next go round. Again, I appreciate the mention !
I'm still blown away on how many great finds there are at Bills. Not sure, but at 9:14, you might of missed that blue colored album by, "AMON DUUL"??? My eyesight is not that great. Thanks for sharing JT., you VINYL MINER.
I did miss it a few times, actually. The orange German LP right after was a great find. I hope the Amon Duul is still there when I get home. We're in Thailand, I filmed this right before leaving on vacation. ( I bet it's still gonna be there ) ! Thanks for letting me know about this one, I just read up on them. Cheers, Walter
Hi JT, probably not the spot for this but wanted to say ,great to meet you in the record store in Bangkok the other day could’ve spoken for hours, got a good haul of records ( the bloke next to me was just too slow to grab that rock’n’ roll over ) also went to M-tanakorn and a couple of stalls at chattachuck markets. Have checked out Ben’s channel so between you and him I’ve got plenty of vid’s to watch ! off to Romania next so will check out the record stores there, again great to meet you . Cheers,Ian
Ian, thanks so much for this message, and I'm glad you picked up that KISS LP ! It was fun hanging with you. Enjoy Romania ! Tomorrow I'm meeting up with a British fellow who lives full-time here in Central Thailand ( Pattaya ). We're all going over to the big mall, and there is a brand new record store for us to check out.. And plenty of time to do family and general fun and relaxing stuff, too ! Cheers, and hope to chat again soon.
I’m thinking of getting that Best Of Cream album and getting rid of the regular studio albums. That Early Steppenwolf is good. KNAC became a very popular Metal station. The Ian Dury and Bow Wow Wow are so good. The Motels is my favorite by them.
Yeah, Richie, I'm digging these titles, and thanks for mentioning KNAC. This radio comp is all punk and edgy bands, though.. I guess they branched out later on.. . You would know. We're in Thailand right now.. Headed to a record shop this afternoon ! Cheers from Thailand 🙏
Bill’s garage never ends! So many records. Not that my opinion matters lol, but I like watching your crate digging more without that background music because it seems more like we’re in that garage with you. I also can listen to disco music now that originally I made fun of. Some great finds JT!
Good point, Gary.. Next time around, I won't add any backing tracks. I'm glad someone came out and said what they thought ! I just filmed Tower in Tokyo again and Bangkok record shops, ( 7 stores in one mall ), and I'll upload with the music playing in the background. Good to hear from you, we have another week here in Thailand..
I like it when Bill joins me in my digging and starts talking about his days in radio as a DJ. Every single one of those records were picked, thrifting in Oroville, Ca Chico, Ca, and Reno / Sparks.. back when good records were everywhere at thrift stores. He would spin them on his radio shows in the 90's.
Wow still some nice records in the boxes, despite you having to share now (shame). The Fairuz album might be worth getting along with the Amon Duul. I hope you kept the Popol Vuh too? My favourite Free album there! cheers Dale
Hello from Thailand Dale ! We came over right after my little excursion to Bill's once again. I did keep the Popol Vuh.. Wow ! I am impressed, so chill ! A few of you guys directed me to Amon Duul, which I knew nothing about, so thank you for this recommendation. I read up on them, and the condish of the jacket threw me off.. but I do have a feeling the vinyl might be in very good + condish. I definitely want it, and it probably will still be there. Cheers, Dale.. Nice to have some R&R from work.. VC is always fun, for me !
I always enjoy seeing you digging even if you have to share now. Nice B.B. King record and Boomtown Rats comp. Great that you got the Bow Wow Wow with a pristine cover. I saw you look at The Atlantic Rhythm & Blues comp and they were some of the best unless it wasn't in good condition. I also like seeing the Cadets record in the flip.
I might go back and get that Cadets LP.. Randy, we are in Thailand, and Japan was incredible once again. Taking it easy, I posted this video for the middle of our vacation. I like staying in touch, just not at our nomal whirlwind VC speed ! Haha. The Atlantic comps are so good, I have always enjoyed my Cd's ever since they were released.. might be a good idea to get those now that you mention it. Travel is the best, I bet you can't wait for your next journey ! 😊
I picked up the full-length Bow Wow Wow Japanese press / nude cover, yesterday. The one from Bill's is the EP. I bargain shopped over here more than springing for the big guns ! Cheers from Thailand 🇨🇷
@@jtsrecordroom3963 I got back from Tanzania at the beginning of the month and I am currently planning a fall foliage trip to New England. I recently found an early Cadets album but I haven't posted about it yet. I hope you are having a great vacation. I haven't made it to those two countries yet.
It will be cool if you ever do a record cleaning video. How do you care for all those records!? I clean mine now with a several step process ending with an ultrasonic and a distilled water rinse and wipe down and dry.
Eventually, I will. Honestly, I don't have time between work, my son, and so much incoming on the records. I use a friend's spin clean on occasion. We all do things differently. I would like more time for cleaning, but amazingly, many of my used records play wonderfully before any cleaning method. If they don't, I know which ones definitely need to be cleaned. I am not the type that cleans a brand new record unless it was a bit noisy. At some point, I will be cleaning like a mad dog, but... not now ! I'm over in Japan and Thailand right now, relaxing and, of course... shopping for records ! 🎵
Jt, I just got a comment from someone you met on your travels and they're from Melbourne. Bill's garage is better than most record stores 😂 New Boots & Panties I had on a TDK90 with English Settlement on the other side. I played it a lot!
Right.. Ian was in Bangkok at Fotune Town Mall at a small shop that I was shopping at.. Great guy, and good conversation. I guessed where he was from, even the city, although he and his wife moved up to the Gold Coast from Melbourne recently. True.. Bill's and Ted's is better than anything I can find price wise over here. Tokyo was fun.. Disk Union Rock was awesome.. we stayed in Shibuya and made our way over to Asakusa. Sean had a blast at Disneyland. We were impressed as well. I'm sure he is gonna be watching your channel, I am a good salesman ! Haha 🤣 So nice to be settled in here in Bang Saray, and there is one more brand new record shop that I'm going to and meeting Roy Goad.. A British guy that watches us vc dudes ! He's full-time here in Pattaya. I'm 67 tomorrow and just celebrated 34 years of sobriety yesterday ! I always say.. I survived the 80s !!
The garage that keeps on giving. It looks a bit more organized. I would not remember where I left off.The Atlantic Rhythm and Blues comps are great. I don't own that B.B. title. Looks like a early 70's release? Boomtown Rats - nice. I can't wait to catch up, Jt.
Right.. an early 70s BB release with bangers Galore ! ( 1965-69 ). I keep passing the Atlantic comps up as I remember playing my Cd set often. I will have a look next time. Talk soon !
Hi JT! Welcome back! Those are some fun records to flip through! I was hoping you’d bring home the Akbar Khan and Ravi Shankar record. Those can be very intriguing. I take it the McLean record wasn’t in good shape? I remember listening to KNAC PURE ROCK in the late 80s! I was far from a metal head but I did enjoy the occasional head bang. It’s hard to go wrong with any soundtrack on the Varese Sarabande label. Nice Hendrix and Bow Wow Wow! Take care.
Actually, the Jackie McLean record was among the cleanest ! We are in Thailand right now, and tomorrow I will meet up with an acquaintance who lives here full time at Sabai Records.. A new shop close to my home over here. The KNAC radio comp is cool and valuable. Maybe I will pick up the Ravi Shankar next time I'm over there. Thanks, Steve 🇨🇷 Cheers from Thailand
@@jtsrecordroom3963 Also grab the Ali Akbar Khan record which was right after the Shankar record. The title is Morning Ragas. It’s beautiful Indian Classical. Enjoy Thailand.
Hi JT!!! another very succesful trip to Bill's garage..... did you finally get Queen's "The Game"? it was in great condition and with the hype sticker too. Two great heavy netal albums, nice Accept comp and Kingdom Come's debut, it's also a killer one to have now in your collection. Btw, don't know if somebody ever asked you, why Bill have so many records? did he own a record store? cheers and be well
Bill started thrifting in the early 90s while he was a radio DJ in Northern California. He would spin them on his radio spots.. Now, he prefers his Cd's, especially for bonus tracks. We are over in Japan and now Thailand, Cristian.. And I bet you know what I'm doing for fun over here ! Haha 🎵 The Game jacket is perfect, the vinyl bad, I might buy it for the cover, only when I get ho.e to Reno. Cheers from Bang Saray Thailand 🙏
I'm alright with the way I did it, Harry ! 20 or so at a time has worked for me. Wow ! Your BB sounds great.. I'll look at that online.. Thanks so much, we are in Thailand, and I'm off to Sabai Records in Pattaya right now 🙏
Amazingly there are still plenty of records over at Bill's, and now having my friend Ted to start trading with me with his original Tower stock is very cool ! Thanks always, Harry 😊
I always enjoy your videos, and I can't wait for some Thailand footage. I hope to visit there someday. I was just joking about having to fight it out for Bills records. I also made a mistake. I have a 78rpm of Cherry Red by Eddie "Cleanhead" Vinson. The 78rpm by blues boy King was called Boogie Rock on RPM records
Ahhh OK..I didn't look it up yet, so you didn't confuse me ! Haha. I didn't take that the wrong way at all about the situation at Bill's ! Things change, and all is good. I'm turning 67 here in a couple of hours.. Back home, it's still 8 am ( 13 hours difference ) I think you would love Thailand, and Japan is absolutely amazing. It helps to have someone to show you around Tokyo. though.. I am filming a lot, so I hope to put together some good footage. Thanks, Harry
Well, Happy birthday to ya. I am 5 years older and still collecting, more picky now . My wife is much younger than me. I met her when I was 51. I guess I forgot I would get old😂. Did you take any US albums with you to trade?
Hi JT. There are a lot of records with roughed-up sleeves. Assuming the condition is OK, I would have picked up Amon Duul, Popol Vuh, Paul Simon (what is that at 11:52?), Stiff Live Stiffs, Concerts For The People Of Kampuchea (includes one side of Paul McCartney I think) and Atlantic Rhythm And Blues.
I had Bill hold Stiff Live Stiffs, The Popol Vuh is amazing. and I had no idea what Amon Duul was and hope the vinyl is in good shape and that it is still there when I get back. ( In Thailand ) I have a good copy of Kampuchea for years, I should pull it and give it a spin soon ! Cheers, Carl 🇨🇷
There are and always were a lot of rough records, and then .. the good ones appear ! I have faith that there will be another good stack for me when we return to the U.S. in April. I met up with Roy Goad.. a Londoner that lives full-time here in Pattaya yesterday. He watches some of us on UA-cam. I enjoy my playlists now, Carl.. Pretty much got the idea from you ! 🎵
@@jtsrecordroom3963 It happens quite often when I look through trashed records that I'll stumble upon a clean record I want ... On my 'music documentaries' playlist there's a video on German experimental rock made for the BBC. Amon Duul and Popol Vuh are included ... Enjoy the rest of your family holiday. Best wishes from the UK.
Amon Duul was stunning ! I streamed it and so glad you guys turned me on to them. I read about the commune, and the record I passed up was the one that split up the commune, evidently.
When you were flipping through the boxes at Bill's you passed up an LP by Amon Duul 2 called Viva La Trance, I was yelling at the TV "Grab it! Grab it!" LOL But you still got a pretty good haul, that comp looked cool, with all the goodies. I have an album by Love Sculpture titled Blues Helping on Rare Earth and it has the same die cut cover as the Rustix album. So does the Pretty Things SF Sorrow. Nice Hendrix soundtrack, I've got that one and it's excellent. Spooky Tooth is great, I've been getting into them alot in the past year. Busted your Jaw isn't my favorite, but I think it still has it's moments. I still need to get that 2nd Free album, do you have their first, Tons of Sobs? I just showed that Ian Dury in my last video, great album! Boomtown Rats and Bow Wow Wow, 2 great 80s bands, saw the Rats when I Don't Like Mondays was a hit. Nice haul as usual Jt, wish I had a friend like Bill!😀
Hey Michael.. Thanks for looking in. Everyone has told me about that Amon Duul.. I listened, and it is absolutely amazing ! I picked up the Popol Vuh right next to it, an even more rare record.. I hope Amon Duul is still there when I get back as I will need to check the condish. I appreciate the input because I knew nothing about Amon Duul until you and others told me. That was the record that broke up the commune in Germany, evidently from my reading on the record and band ! Cheers from Thailand 🇨🇷
@@jtsrecordroom3963 Hey Jt, Witness and Tobacco Road are both pretty good Spooky Tooth LPs. I don't know about where you live, but I see those LPs a lot for cheap, $10 to $15 for a decent copy.
I'm out west in Reno... Should be around the same price. Shopping In Tokyo and Bangkok was fun this past week.. just under Discogs median price in most of the stores, but deals to be found with OBi's Galore !
I do have Tons Of Sobs, and only in the last few months on the pink island label from Bill's garage. Another good find over there ! I'm in Pattaya, Thailand, right now..
Orange county music artist , Nu beams , Rare Earth ,I've seen that Hendrix before the corona , spooky tooth , Boom town rats , BB King , Bow wow Free , Argent , Break out , Motels , Dave Clark 5 , Anita Baker , I like Disco , Rock , some Metal, Disco is cool. I don't like Rap that's ruing. the world no rap hip hop!!! spooky tooth sounds like a fun band? how come they made a new cover for Bow wow wow? so you watch alot of 80's videos on youtube then how do you watch a creators videos wether there showing recent pick ups or contest videos? I watch 80's videos on MTV? From What I see Accept a tradational heavy metal band balls to the walls around 1981 or so? From what was talked about on the radio in magazines in 1982 Iron Maiden opened for Judas Priest? what did you think about bands like Girl school, Loudness and Metal Church?
Take more money. Buy more
That's what I always say ! LoL !! And now I'm back over .. You know where ! Thailand and Japan. Bringing home the goods, Greg 🎵
The Spooky Tooth album title would not fly today.
Haha.. Absolutely right ! Hope to find Spooky II someday soon ! Thanks for that mention, and watching. Appreciated 🎵

Thanks, Craig ! I finally have all of the good Free LPs on vinyl. I have enjoyed my CDs by the band for years, but the records are superior, I feel. 🎵
Motels first album is so good!
Great album, and glad that I rediscovered how good their debut is. My roommate from '79 ended up playing bass with Martha Davis down in LA back in the 90s for a short while.. He was thrilled about that ! Thanks 🎵

I like it when Bill joins me in my digging and starts talking about his days in radio as a DJ. Every single one of those records were picked, thrifting in Oroville, Ca Chico, Ca, and Reno / Sparks.. back when good records were everywhere at thrift stores. He would spin them on his radio shows in the 90's.
Wow still some nice records in the boxes, despite you having to share now (shame). The Fairuz album might be worth getting along with the Amon Duul. I hope you kept the Popol Vuh too? My favourite Free album there! cheers Dale
Hello from Thailand Dale ! We came over right after my little excursion to Bill's once again. I did keep the Popol Vuh.. Wow ! I am impressed, so chill ! A few of you guys directed me to Amon Duul, which I knew nothing about, so thank you for this recommendation. I read up on them, and the condish of the jacket threw me off.. but I do have a feeling the vinyl might be in very good + condish. I definitely want it, and it probably will still be there. Cheers, Dale.. Nice to have some R&R from work.. VC is always fun, for me !
I always enjoy seeing you digging even if you have to share now. Nice B.B. King record and Boomtown Rats comp. Great that you got the Bow Wow Wow with a pristine cover. I saw you look at The Atlantic Rhythm & Blues comp and they were some of the best unless it wasn't in good condition. I also like seeing the Cadets record in the flip.
I might go back and get that Cadets LP.. Randy, we are in Thailand, and Japan was incredible once again. Taking it easy, I posted this video for the middle of our vacation. I like staying in touch, just not at our nomal whirlwind VC speed ! Haha. The Atlantic comps are so good, I have always enjoyed my Cd's ever since they were released.. might be a good idea to get those now that you mention it. Travel is the best, I bet you can't wait for your next journey ! 😊
I picked up the full-length Bow Wow Wow Japanese press / nude cover, yesterday. The one from Bill's is the EP. I bargain shopped over here more than springing for the big guns ! Cheers from Thailand 🇨🇷
@@jtsrecordroom3963 I got back from Tanzania at the beginning of the month and I am currently planning a fall foliage trip to New England. I recently found an early Cadets album but I haven't posted about it yet. I hope you are having a great vacation. I haven't made it to those two countries yet.
@@jtsrecordroom3963 That's great. It will be interesting to see some of the things you picked up from your trip.
Thanks, and of course I did a lot of filming and record buying ! Coming home in 9 days, or so. Thanks, Randy 🎵
It will be cool if you ever do a record cleaning video. How do you care for all those records!? I clean mine now with a several step process ending with an ultrasonic and a distilled water rinse and wipe down and dry.
Eventually, I will. Honestly, I don't have time between work, my son, and so much incoming on the records. I use a friend's spin clean on occasion. We all do things differently. I would like more time for cleaning, but amazingly, many of my used records play wonderfully before any cleaning method. If they don't, I know which ones definitely need to be cleaned. I am not the type that cleans a brand new record unless it was a bit noisy. At some point, I will be cleaning like a mad dog, but... not now ! I'm over in Japan and Thailand right now, relaxing and, of course... shopping for records ! 🎵
Jt, I just got a comment from someone you met on your travels and they're from Melbourne.
Bill's garage is better than most record stores 😂 New Boots & Panties I had on a TDK90 with English Settlement on the other side. I played it a lot!
Right.. Ian was in Bangkok at Fotune Town Mall at a small shop that I was shopping at.. Great guy, and good conversation. I guessed where he was from, even the city, although he and his wife moved up to the Gold Coast from Melbourne recently. True.. Bill's and Ted's is better than anything I can find price wise over here. Tokyo was fun.. Disk Union Rock was awesome.. we stayed in Shibuya and made our way over to Asakusa. Sean had a blast at Disneyland. We were impressed as well. I'm sure he is gonna be watching your channel, I am a good salesman ! Haha 🤣 So nice to be settled in here in Bang Saray, and there is one more brand new record shop that I'm going to and meeting Roy Goad.. A British guy that watches us vc dudes ! He's full-time here in Pattaya. I'm 67 tomorrow and just celebrated 34 years of sobriety yesterday ! I always say.. I survived the 80s !!
@@jtsrecordroom3963 Happy Birthday mate 👍Sounds like you're having a great holiday and enjoying the record hunt.
So nice and chill ! Thank you, Ben !
Ben.. You don't have New Boots & Panties Ian Dury on vinyl ?
@@jtsrecordroom3963 Yep I’ve got that. Fantastic record.
The garage that keeps on giving. It looks a bit more organized. I would not remember where I left off.The Atlantic Rhythm and Blues comps are great. I don't own that B.B. title. Looks like a early 70's release? Boomtown Rats - nice. I can't wait to catch up, Jt.
Right.. an early 70s BB release with bangers Galore ! ( 1965-69 ). I keep passing the Atlantic comps up as I remember playing my Cd set often. I will have a look next time. Talk soon !
Hi JT! Welcome back! Those are some fun records to flip through! I was hoping you’d bring home the Akbar Khan and Ravi Shankar record. Those can be very intriguing. I take it the McLean record wasn’t in good shape? I remember listening to KNAC PURE ROCK in the late 80s! I was far from a metal head but I did enjoy the occasional head bang. It’s hard to go wrong with any soundtrack on the Varese Sarabande label. Nice Hendrix and Bow Wow Wow! Take care.
Actually, the Jackie McLean record was among the cleanest ! We are in Thailand right now, and tomorrow I will meet up with an acquaintance who lives here full time at Sabai Records.. A new shop close to my home over here. The KNAC radio comp is cool and valuable. Maybe I will pick up the Ravi Shankar next time I'm over there. Thanks, Steve 🇨🇷 Cheers from Thailand
@@jtsrecordroom3963 Also grab the Ali Akbar Khan record which was right after the Shankar record. The title is Morning Ragas. It’s beautiful Indian Classical. Enjoy Thailand.
I'll remember, I know right where that box is..Sounds very interesting. I always appreciate the input I get on these flip videos, Steve !
Hi JT!!! another very succesful trip to Bill's garage..... did you finally get Queen's "The Game"? it was in great condition and with the hype sticker too. Two great heavy netal albums, nice Accept comp and Kingdom Come's debut, it's also a killer one to have now in your collection. Btw, don't know if somebody ever asked you, why Bill have so many records? did he own a record store? cheers and be well
Bill started thrifting in the early 90s while he was a radio DJ in Northern California. He would spin them on his radio spots.. Now, he prefers his Cd's, especially for bonus tracks. We are over in Japan and now Thailand, Cristian.. And I bet you know what I'm doing for fun over here ! Haha 🎵 The Game jacket is perfect, the vinyl bad, I might buy it for the cover, only when I get ho.e to Reno. Cheers from Bang Saray Thailand 🙏
You could've had them all,had them all and had them now. But now now competing with others 😂. I have a 78rpm Cherry red by Blues boy King. BB
I'm alright with the way I did it, Harry ! 20 or so at a time has worked for me. Wow ! Your BB sounds great.. I'll look at that online.. Thanks so much, we are in Thailand, and I'm off to Sabai Records in Pattaya right now 🙏
Amazingly there are still plenty of records over at Bill's, and now having my friend Ted to start trading with me with his original Tower stock is very cool ! Thanks always, Harry 😊
I always enjoy your videos, and I can't wait for some Thailand footage. I hope to visit there someday. I was just joking about having to fight it out for Bills records. I also made a mistake. I have a 78rpm of Cherry Red by Eddie "Cleanhead" Vinson. The 78rpm by blues boy King was called Boogie Rock on RPM records
Ahhh OK..I didn't look it up yet, so you didn't confuse me ! Haha. I didn't take that the wrong way at all about the situation at Bill's ! Things change, and all is good. I'm turning 67 here in a couple of hours.. Back home, it's still 8 am
( 13 hours difference ) I think you would love Thailand, and Japan is absolutely amazing. It helps to have someone to show you around Tokyo. though.. I am filming a lot, so I hope to put together some good footage. Thanks, Harry
Well, Happy birthday to ya.
I am 5 years older and still collecting, more picky now . My wife is much younger than me. I met her when I was 51. I guess I forgot I would get old😂.
Did you take any US albums with you to trade?
Hi JT. There are a lot of records with roughed-up sleeves. Assuming the condition is OK, I would have picked up Amon Duul, Popol Vuh, Paul Simon (what is that at 11:52?), Stiff Live Stiffs, Concerts For The People Of Kampuchea (includes one side of Paul McCartney I think) and Atlantic Rhythm And Blues.
I had Bill hold Stiff Live Stiffs, The Popol Vuh is amazing. and I had no idea what Amon Duul was and hope the vinyl is in good shape and that it is still there when I get back. ( In Thailand ) I have a good copy of Kampuchea for years, I should pull it and give it a spin soon ! Cheers, Carl 🇨🇷
There are and always were a lot of rough records, and then .. the good ones appear ! I have faith that there will be another good stack for me when we return to the U.S. in April. I met up with Roy Goad.. a Londoner that lives full-time here in Pattaya yesterday. He watches some of us on UA-cam. I enjoy my playlists now, Carl.. Pretty much got the idea from you ! 🎵
@@jtsrecordroom3963 I got a near-mint copy of 'Concerts For Kampuchea' a couple of years after it came out. I should dig it out again too.
@@jtsrecordroom3963 It happens quite often when I look through trashed records that I'll stumble upon a clean record I want ... On my 'music documentaries' playlist there's a video on German experimental rock made for the BBC. Amon Duul and Popol Vuh are included ... Enjoy the rest of your family holiday. Best wishes from the UK.
Amon Duul was stunning ! I streamed it and so glad you guys turned me on to them. I read about the commune, and the record I passed up was the one that split up the commune, evidently.
Did you not end up getting that Jackie MacLean album?
I did get it, and it's plays quiet and great sonics.. 2nd outstanding pressing ! Thanks 🎵
What was that Black albumbox????
I'm not sure.. I'll go back and look. It's amazing that more records keep happening on this Ling time dig ! Now.. I'm curious 😏
When you were flipping through the boxes at Bill's you passed up an LP by Amon Duul 2 called Viva La Trance, I was yelling at the TV "Grab it! Grab it!" LOL But you still got a pretty good haul, that comp looked cool, with all the goodies. I have an album by Love Sculpture titled Blues Helping on Rare Earth and it has the same die cut cover as the Rustix album. So does the Pretty Things SF Sorrow. Nice Hendrix soundtrack, I've got that one and it's excellent. Spooky Tooth is great, I've been getting into them alot in the past year. Busted your Jaw isn't my favorite, but I think it still has it's moments. I still need to get that 2nd Free album, do you have their first, Tons of Sobs? I just showed that Ian Dury in my last video, great album! Boomtown Rats and Bow Wow Wow, 2 great 80s bands, saw the Rats when I Don't Like Mondays was a hit. Nice haul as usual Jt, wish I had a friend like Bill!😀
Hey Michael.. Thanks for looking in. Everyone has told me about that Amon Duul.. I listened, and it is absolutely amazing ! I picked up the Popol Vuh right next to it, an even more rare record.. I hope Amon Duul is still there when I get back as I will need to check the condish. I appreciate the input because I knew nothing about Amon Duul until you and others told me. That was the record that broke up the commune in Germany, evidently from my reading on the record and band ! Cheers from Thailand 🇨🇷
Right.. I hope to find Spooky II.. And which other in their catalog would you suggest ? Thanks, Michael. 🤙
@@jtsrecordroom3963 Hey Jt, Witness and Tobacco Road are both pretty good Spooky Tooth LPs. I don't know about where you live, but I see those LPs a lot for cheap, $10 to $15 for a decent copy.
I'm out west in Reno... Should be around the same price. Shopping In Tokyo and Bangkok was fun this past week.. just under Discogs median price in most of the stores, but deals to be found with OBi's Galore !
I do have Tons Of Sobs, and only in the last few months on the pink island label from Bill's garage. Another good find over there ! I'm in Pattaya, Thailand, right now..
Orange county music artist , Nu beams , Rare Earth ,I've seen that Hendrix before the corona , spooky tooth , Boom town rats , BB King , Bow wow
Free , Argent , Break out , Motels , Dave Clark 5 , Anita Baker , I like Disco , Rock , some Metal, Disco is cool.
I don't like Rap that's ruing. the world no rap hip hop!!!
spooky tooth sounds like a fun band?
how come they made a new cover for Bow wow wow?
so you watch alot of 80's videos on youtube then how do you watch a creators videos wether there showing recent pick ups or contest videos?
I watch 80's videos on MTV?
From What I see Accept a tradational heavy metal band balls to the walls around 1981 or so?
From what was talked about on the radio in magazines in 1982 Iron Maiden opened for Judas Priest?
what did you think about bands like Girl school, Loudness and Metal Church?
It's an involved story on the clean and nude cover of that Bow Wow Wow LP Annabella was 15 at the time, Mark.
Hey Mark.. Let's put it this way.. I watch a lot of all kinds of videos, including vinyl community ones..
I know Girls School, but I don't know the music of the 2 other bands, only heard their names mentioned here and there 😊
Spooky Tooth is awesome! Blues Rock from the late 60s through the mid 70's. Gary Wright was in the band..
@@jtsrecordroom3963 I watch you tube on a different day than when watching MTV? I don't watch the 80's all the time sometimes..
