    Just recently subscribed to your channel and absolutely love it, and am working my way through all your videos. Although prog, psych and metal seems to be your main bag, how refreshing to see you diverge into other genres and not put down other styles and bands unlike some other channels do which I won't name here...oh... ok Sea of Tranquillity (which I really tire of when they slag punk, the Smiths etc.).
    Obviously people who tune into a VC channel have a broad range of likes/ dislikes...I'm not a big prog/ metal fan but don't see any need to shout about it. Love the shout outs for Doves, Kate Bush and Air who are personal favourites.
    One idea I would love to see is a cull video, instead of a "this is what I've bought", "this is what I'm getting rid off..."

      @timrigby660 Thanks for the positive comments. It's funny, I always thought I might be alienating potential viewers by having broad taste, but I guess I'm not alone in loving great music whatever pigeonhole it's been consigned to. Incidentally, you're not the first to request a cull video, so I'll add it to my 'to do' list. Thanks for the sub! ☮️

    Very good tag and I agree completely about Joan Armatrading.

    Great tag Tony! It’s was a great story… it had humour, intrigue and celebrities behaving badly. Great to see Shuggie Otis being shown. I’d love to pick up that LP. I was a big fan of Heaven or Las Vegas when I was in High School… loved my HoL T-shirt too! Never heard of Angel Witch, but looks cool. Need to give Jigsaw a listen too. Oooh … love that Nazz debut… tremendous stuff! Liked and subbed. Cheers, Jack

    Nice entry Mr. Shelf. I showed a different rooster in my entry. I have a stack of Armatrading which were all cheap as chips, she’s fantastic. Have you ever thought of trying to get into Eel Pie? Being in that room would be once in a lifetime. Always love you showing bands I’ve never heard of. Cheers.

      Look at that, Jack: we both whipped out our cocks for the animal question! I don't have that Atomic Rooster LP. I've been holding out for the UK pressing with the denim sleeve, but it's hard to find. Why are Joan's albums so cheap? Bit of a mystery! I should try and blag my way into Eel Pie studios, or at least find out whether they're a going concern still. For quite a number of years, the studio's been called The Boathouse (another name change). Thin Lizzy recorded bits of their Thunder and Lightning LP there. That's a session I'd have loved to sit in on😎

    Starting my watch of this now. Would have loved to have met you during our recent London VC Record Store & Pub crawl two weeks ago. A fun week in London. Cheers!

      I think my invitation got lost in the post. Would have been good to meet in person. Next time, for sure! I enjoyed watching your London videos. It's always interesting to see your home town through someone else's eyes: made me fall in love with the city all over again. ☮️

      @@MrShelf-Stacker Ha. Nobody seems to know your name or contact. I did post a message in the comments of one of your videos a couple of months ago. Oh well.
      I had a fab week, staying in Fitzrovia. It was my 6th visit, but first in 19 years.
      Cheers 🇬🇧

      ​@mazzysmusic Being a man of mystery has its down side. I need to get a more prominent email address attached to my channel. See you over here for your 89th birthday? Cheers, Tony (shit, cover blown!)

    Great video! I love that Joan Armatrading album. I had never heard of "Familia De Lobos" before, but after seeing you talk about it, I went and listened to the album and now want to snag a copy! Thanks. Angel Witch! Yes! I'm new to your channel as well as new to the VC. I posted my first video about 14 days ago. It was my response to the Noble Records Summer Tag. I just subscribed to your channel and look forward to your next posting. Cheers. Bobby

    1p for Jigsaw...now that's a bargain! Paid £30 for mine. Great lp and their debut is even better (first Keef sleeve design as well). Love that Shuggie Otis lp as well...what a talent. Enjoyed the vid... especially the cock pun 😁. Cheers Nige

      Yeah, I don't have Letherslade Farm yet. As soon as I find a copy for 1p I'll jump on it 😂

    Had you thought of getting a cheap crosley style record player for anything trashed or not wrecking your proper turntable? That's what I do then it's also portable which I find very handy.

    • @MrShelf-Stacker
      @MrShelf-Stacker  4 місяці тому +1

      Not a bad idea. I'd also considered picking up a cheap cartridge to play beat-up LPs with. The headshell on one of my turntables is interchangeable, so this might be the route I go.
