The first goodwill had better records than my local record store, I'm not even joking. The condition may not have been great but I don't even see James Brown records at my record store, if I did they'd have a $50 price tag on them. Fleetwood Mac Ohio players Waylon Jennings Fred Wesley and the JBs Dude snatch that up
I agree that first Goodwill had some seriously good titles. I didn’t show me inspecting condition in the video to keep this from getting crazy long. That Fred Wesley had a significant warp. The James Brown records were also pretty beat. I probably still should have picked those up - but would’ve been to flip because the condition was below what I generally would hold on to. Thanks for taking the time to comment. Cheers!
I found a George Harrison's All Things Must Pass 1970 box set at a St. Vincent thrift store. 3 record box set with the poster for $1.99. Nice condition. Persistence is key to finding treasures.
I’ve picked up a few copies of that one over the years - a classic for sure. But I don’t think I’ve come across it in a thrift in about 7 years now. Persistence is definitely the key.
This is so much fun - Come on with the James Brown albums! The Jones Girls.... I can't believe all of the classic soul. The JB's - I hope you picked that one up.
A record cover that is a bit worn out has character! I don't mind it. I use always a black marker to make the white crackles black when it's a black cover. That Joni Michell "Blue" album has a bit more worth than 2 dollars. And your tour was not a waste of time! Congratulations to do this big tour!! I enjoyed it! Greetings from Belgium! Jason
I believe that thrift stores have their "favorite" regular buyers who get a heads up about new cool arrivals or records stashed in the backroom. Just sayin
On a similar video I watched...one of the commentors said he worked at a goodwill. All media is supposed to go in a big box back to their areas big center...its gone thru...all the best stuff is put online...the rest goes back to the stores. He said his manager will put out good stuff once in a while for his customers. I guess it just depends who's running your local stores. Mine are back to putting those damn stickers on everything again...so annoying!
The first Goodwill had the best Goodwill record section I've ever seen. St. Etienne at Goodwill, wut? I'm at Goodwill #5 and I'm pretty sure you should have just gone home after #1.
Douche that first Goodwill tho! Had some serious funk heat 🔥💯, you need to go back and snatch up all the James Brown, the JB’s, Ohio players, Commodores and Average White Band, also Ten Years After Cricklewood Green is solid for $2
Salute to you for destroying the thrift shop mythos, especially in this day and age. It's mostly garbage. I look too occasionally, but it's gruelling. I have a record strore and drop stuff in for the bottom feeders at the thrift stores. Let their 'expert' value them..😂 ps definitely a few I would have pounced on in the first store, $100 funk record there... Maybe it was trashed ?
What man jack of us would not rise in salute to the crucible you have endured on the VC’s behalf. Having viewed your videos for the last couple of years, I wouldn't have thought that there would be much to appeal to a man of your elevated and poppy tastes in the outstretched arms of charity. My own particular fancy often collides with the oddball vinyl offerings in this sort of budget boutique. I saw at least 20-30 take-home albums - even considering attrition due to condition, which can be an issue, often rising to a bugaboo, in this kind of emporium. It was nice to see Nana Mouskouri tying to hip up her image with the hat and the Thjis Van Leer was especially tasty to we Focus fans. Many thanks again for your perilous and penny-pinching journey. May you shop long and prosper in the land that rain forgot.
For a long time I would fill in certain types of music in my collection from thrift shops. I’d say 3-5 years ago it became a lot tougher down here. There were some keeper titles mixed in among the usual - but significant condition issues kept me from pulling the trigger. A couple I probably should’ve picked up anyway as could have flipped them. It was an interesting exercise for me. Cheers!
This was such a necessary exercise. This has been my experience in Goodwills for more than a decade. I never believe people’s stories of great finds. Eventually it was fun just to see what you paused on and why.
Yes, very necessary. I’d say as recently as a few years ago I could still score some keepers every once in a while. First store here had some gems but significant condition issues. Maybe should have picked up a few of them anyway (Fred Wesley for instance). It was a real pleasure getting all of these gems showcased on UA-cam.
Interesting endeavour. Reminds me of a tour of charity shops me and a mate did around Yorkshire about 20 years ago. There was some interesting stuff in that first stop-off. I'd have picked up that copy of the first Hearts And Flowers album, great psychedelic folk/country rock, that's a $30 to $50 album. Wheatstraw Suite by The Dillards and Nevada Fighter by Michael Nesmith are essential albums, for those interested in early country rock. Elsewhere I saw a couple of albums I'm after. The first Black Oak Arkansas album and Pata Pata by the great Miriam Makeba. I have a wide taste in music, with a big interest in country and classical, so I saw quite a few albums I'd have picked up. Nice looking Wynn Stewart, Jean Shepard and George Jones albums, and a fabulous early Eddy Arnold record which I was listening to only yesterday. I don't have Glenn Gould's recording of Bach's Goldberg Variations, so I'd definitely have got that if the record was okay. I find it quite sad they way we tend to look at all these records in Goodwill and charity shops as being a load of crap. This was popular music at some point, clearly bought in their thousands. Sometimes I think we need to put aside our modern sensibilities and delve into this music, and be damned with the gatekeepers of cool. Sorry to bring you back to this 6 months on, I'm sure it's triggering for you. Cheers - Hedley
Yeah, that first stop was the best in at least 5 years that I had seen. Not just the quality of the titles but the variety of genres represented is not common - but very welcome. The condition of the records is always the bugger (assuming the correct record is in the jacket for starters). For classic country and classical you would be in heaven here. After a couple decades of seeing the same George Jones records over and over again you become numb to it. I suspect those aren’t as easy to come by on your side of the pond. A lot of retirees in this area keep that stuff stocked. Although when I lived up north in the 2000’s I also found an abundance of those titles up there as well. Thanks for hanging out. Cheers!
I bailed out around store 11. I may have missed where you told how much the records cost and what kind of records you were looking for. You passed a Bob Dylan record. There was a record, with a naked lady and a guitar in front of her, that is a good electric guitar record. It's worth $20. Also Donovan and Waylon Jennings Lps. Some of those odd records have surprisingly good music on them. You have to study the album jacket. Goodwills have gone up on the price which makes it uncomfortable to buy odd, unknown records. It's unfortunate because you can learn a lot with one and two dollar records. Thanks for the video.
you passed by MANY worthwhile titles from that first goodwill...not just soul, funk either, the surf folk and rock titles. some seemed in good shape from the covers, etc... no clue why you would not grab them but a captivating watch none-the-less
Lucky you for finding that Saint Etienne ep. Were you hoping to find gems like The Men They Couldn't Hang, The House of Love, KMFDM, Meat Beat Manifesto, Sheep on Drugs, See See Rider, The Heart Throbs, Felt, or The Field Mice? LOL
Finding that Saint Ethernet right off the bat had me pretty excited for sure. If I found anything by those artists I’d be ecstatic. Been a while since I’ve been that lucky. Cheers!
There were def some gems scattered in there but was it worth the driving you did?...not sure but thanks for video. Fun to see whats out there. The last gem I saw was at 40.56...the Lure of the Grand Canyon by Andre Kostelanitz with spoken word from Johnny Cash on it. He narrates a decent into the canyon ...pretty cool actually. Columbia cs 8422 if you're curious.
I thought the first stop had some rare to see at thrift shop items for sure. Most of these goodwills are actually located relatively close together and the few outliers I had other errands to run in the are. But, in hindsight definitely not worth the driving. Thanks for going along for the ride. Cheers!
I enjoyed your video. I was rooting for you. Slim pickings. Are there any record/exchange stores with dollar bins there? May have more fun and better luck. I saw a few I would have snagged if in good shape; Frida, Engelbert "We Made it Happen, The Ventures.
Oh shit cool runnings sdtrk! Man this is great! I’m there. When do you get to Mesa? Did you not get the James Brown or was it beat up. Peace ☮️ Namaste at home next time the Zonkman
Hey Zonkman. A lot of those good ones at the first shop had significant condition issues. Unfortunately. Thanks for hanging for this rough ride. Cheers!
Generally speaking if you find anything that's halfway interesting in a Goodwill, the vinyl will be in toasted shape. I've found a few rare examples, but the thing is with Goodwill is you have to go often. Find the one that caters most to vinyl or CDs. I have that Bacharach soundtrack album and some AWB. Those Garfunkel albums are pretty good. Everyone needs at least one Michael Franks album (soft piano jazz). Come on baby, get you some Barry White. That Donovan is good. Anyway, time for a doob and coke break. Happy hunting.
Agreed - there were a lot of good titles at that first spot but all had significant condition issues. One was even melted. 20 years ago you could easily stumble on to great titles in a Goodwill - heck, even 5 years ago I would routinely find things worth adding to the collection in excellent condition. Nowadays you definitely need to go often and get lucky. Too much competition. I’ve also found that they dole stuff out slowly - so if you find a spot with some goods it is worth going back regularly to see if more of that same collection make it out to the floor. Thanks for checking this one out. Cheers!
You pass over an early Julie London LP! There is only one thrift store in my town and the kids that volunteer there pull the good records for themselves. I stopped buying vintage records about 4 years ago when Diana from Diggininthecr8 change my direction in music. BTW, I have 5 albums that appear in this video: Julie London, Ten Years After, Donovan, Ventures and Nancy Sinatra.
Yeah, I didn’t show me reviewing the condition on the ones that I would have considered buying. I’d say as recently as five years ago I would routinely find records worth picking up - and twenty years ago you could really beef up your collection at bargain basement prices. These days the competition is fierce and I’m not nearly as patient.
Haha you are a trooper for sure. It's been slim pickens for a while in goodwill I think. So many people are into the hobby. Need to find a thrift store where rich, young hipsters are dying maybe? :)
Hey Nathan. It has been pretty rough indeed. The last five years it’s really taken a nosedive. I think you’re right about those rich dead hipsters. Cheers!
Goodwills visited- 20. Gasoline burned 8 gallons at 4.62= I’m not gonna do the math, you should check out this new thing called Discogs ORRRR these things called “Vinyl stores” it’s like a record store but for 36.96 you get ONE record lol. OK I lied , I did do the math. I saw two perfectly good Ventures records
Thanks for doing this so I'm never tempted to. I watched in full and to be honest with you your experience is better than mine's ever been. You stumbled into a lot of rubbish but atleast there was Heart, James Brown, Ten Years After, yadda yadda... even if the condition was bad. The Lively Ones looked to be in good condition. I would've bought that. It could be a solid $15 to $40 depending on condition. I've never found jack squat. Not enough rich old people dying I guess. Thanks for being a hero. I absolutely decimated the 👎🏻 upon your request.
Yeah, that first stop had a stunning amount of good titles. Even some valuable ones. Five years ago it wouldn’t have been that out of the ordinary but it definitely is these days. Appreciate you dropping that atom bomb on the 👎.
If there is one thing you can take away from this video is the great find you can be putting on your shopping list even though a partner or wife is prolly gonna kill you for it lol
@@TheVinylDouchewhat is so bad about going to record shopping is it the quality of the records that you see cause I kinda get what your say but I just want a honest response of what your coming from of not liking to go record shopping I mean in my eyes it's fun but way more fun with friends
Was your goal simply to prove that going to Goodwills is an exercise in futility or were you also looking for certain records for your collection or for resale at the same time ?
I wasn’t sure what I was doing. I wanted to see what I would find - and I am always on the lookout for records to pick up. There were a few titles I would have purchased if the condition was better on them. Cheers!
