Did you know Winger has a box set?!?

Probably definitely your best video of the year so far

"Hey Rocky, watch me pull a horror picture out of my hat. Nothin' up my sleeve...damnit Janet!"

🎶 Nice & Sleazy Does It ! 🔊 🎶

I had an evil woman creeping around my door in the early seventies Robert. I wouldn't let her in so she crawled through my window. True story.🙄

Thanks for the Tami Lynn track. Never heard that, it's amazing! And I owned a records sho in NYC in the 90's that specialized in soul LPs... thought I heard it all by now! Robert Fithen mops the floor of Sea of Tranquility, Mazzy, Fantano etc

Great find for The Stranglers. The way Vinyl rotates around the Country, you never no what you’ll find.

Good stuff as always.

I love that High School Confidential! has an exclamation point in the title, for no discernable reason. I saw Rocky Horror in a drive-in when I was 5 and was a bit confused and went to sleep, expecting a regular horror movie.

Gorgeous

“There’s different types of distortion” Amen 😔

I used to see the Rocky horror picture show in washington d c beckon the early eighties.. so much fun

When it comes to Twisted Sister you absolutely have to get the original pressings. Even the Spitfire cd reissues were totally crap

You should put a ‘thanks’ button. It’s nice to buy a coffee/pint/joint…

I love finding those promo label comps, much like your Atlantic one, even on CD, as they are great for getting those odd tunes you'd like to have, or check out, but wouldn't spend money for on their own. Nice little lucky dip albums.

Picked up my first original 70's colored vinyl at a flea market last summer, red Canadian pressing of Who Are You, sounds pretty good. Also bought an LP off Discogs a few years ago that had a post breakup please come back love letter in the sleeve along with some photos. (get your mind out of the gutter, they were clean)

Finding a running away note in rubber soul 😂 I found a 70s high school essay in yes’s tales from topographic oceans all about the album and Yes, never know what you’re going to find

I about fell out on the reference to kraco. My dad would only buy kraco speakers and sparkomatic stereo's to put in his cars.😂😂😂

You're my favorite sarcastic person ! Lol. Love the channel. Stay Hungry was a terrible production to begin with but a killer album

The Killer! Love Jerry Lee Lewis One of the best concerts I've been to, and the one time he didn't show was still a great show, he didn't show! The Sun Rhythm Section his back up band, played. Most audience members left, but my father, wife, and I stayed. We were entertained by The Greats......... Stan Kesler, Smoochy Smith, Sonny Burgess, D.J.Fontana, Paul Burlison, Marcus Van Story, and the great J.M. Van Eaton! It was by far one of the great concerts. I was a little bum out the "Killer was a no show, but these guys rocked! We got to go back stage and meet them! I got to talk to Elvis' drummer! Dad was there and when I look back, will all I can say, yes it was the one I say was the "Best"!

the free 7" from the Stranglers album has a great cover of Dionne Warwick's Walk On By (played in the style of Light My Fire by The Doors...)...it also came out as a separate 7" release (but with no T*ts on the b-side...).

It wasn’t just the fact that Jerry Lee married his cousin it was more about she was 13 and I think he was in his early 20s

great stranglers album btw...seen them in England, perfect/ great vid Robert!

I remember the Yellow Pages but not the Payges. "Let your fingers do the walking".

The Stranglers-Black And White (UKA 30222 pressing) came with the bonus 7”. The marble vinyl pressings didn’t have it. Great vid!

Was there ever a volume 2 of The Yellow Payges :D ? I'd've called it The Whyte Payges 😜

I was surprised you had the Stranglers album with the hype sticker. I have thier first 4 albums and that’s my favorite. I have the same one I bought the year it was out and no single for me either 😢

I have the UK edition of Black & White with the 7". I usually can't say I have a 7" (my awkward attempt at continuing the joke). It has Tits, but it also has a great cover of Dionne Warwick's Walk On By. The Stranglers were like a punk Doors to my ears. Love 'em. That Yellow Payges LP looks neat. I picture the name was originally chosen as some kind of "ironic commentary," but then they went full circle and did the commercial, haha. I think those "evil lurking woman" songs were made so these guys could justify cheating on their girlfriends/wives. "But I HAD to have sex with her, baby. She was lurking around my door evily!"

Yes, sneaky crazy stalker women were the rage at that time. One of them actually used the Yellow Pages to call Clint Eastwood at the radio station to ask him to play “Misty” for her.

As I'm old enough and English enough to remember it happening, I ought to point out that it wasn't that Jerry Lee was married to a cousin (his third marriage, and him still a teenager) that caused the moral panic, but the fact that she was 12 or 13 years old.

Persuaders: I thought I knew them, but it turned out I was thinking of the Persuasions, who were an a cappella gospel/soul band, active at the same time, both from NYC... That compilation seems like good stuff. I'll try to track down a copy. It sucks that some big label reissues are still sloppy... The bad work they do with cover reproduction is even worse.

My mother had tickets for that cancelled Jerry Lee Lewis tour. It wasn’t that it was his cousin that was the problem (marriage between first cousins is legal in the UK), the problem was her age.

I have the Stranglers I bought new back in the early 80's. It came with a 45RPM 7" single

I'll never forget when Twisted Sister released We're Not Gonna Take It. I was 12 and sick of everyone loving Quiet Riot's version of Cum On Feel the Noise. I immediately felt that TS had done drum opening, anti-establishment hard rock absolute justice. That it was an original tune (albiet with a Who song title), was that much sweeter. These days, TS are merely a tiny, but meaningful bookmark in my music fandom, i.e. still have their first four for sentimental value, but never listen to them. In an interesting twist(pun intended) I do break out Slade every so often.

MOFI's Stay Hungry is pretty amazing and I'm not an audiophile at all. It was actually the only MOFI I've bothered to buy.

He married his 13 year old cousin once removed without the parents approval. He had been boarding at their home.

Flock of Seagulls were named after the line on Toiler on the Sea.

Love to see The Stranglers! I am part of their hidden Stan cable. My fav is actually No More Heroes, and I adore the first too, but this is still definitely "3.5 to 4 stars" for sure. Sorry you didn't get the original seven inch -- when I scored my original I didn't get that then either. That looks beautiful. Congrats, Robert! And keep up the 7" jokes, woot!

Hey Robert, I am really surprised to hear that MOV released a stinker! I have had really good luck with them so far, and just got their pressings of the first 2 Cinderella albums. I will avoid this one.

I love Twisted Sister Stay Hungary!

LoL, you said it was just in the south

I don't think Jerry Lee Lewis was run out for marrying his cousin, it's the fact she was only 13.

As the man says below, in Britain you can marry your cousin, just not if she is seriously under-age, i.e. below 16. I had forgotten The Stranglers. Great band. Sort of if The Doors had gone punk.

If you love Sabbath check out a band called Peth. Pure Sabbath worship at its finest, the guitar playing is outstanding

Speaking of tits. Everytime I come across Found All The Parts by Cheap Trick. It never has the single sided 45 in it. I got that Twisted Sister album for my birthday or christmas that year. But this is a good example as to why I would rather check the reviews online to find out if the record is shot or not. Saves the disappointment. Those album promos are awesome. Not like they ever show up often. It would be something i would find in the dollar bin. Because no one ever wants these albums. Or maybe thats just the impression the store gives. I never see Jerry Lee Lewis records around here. But sweet looking album. Any chance that see through brown vinyl? I had a Herb Alpert on London that was. I remember as a kid seeing an ad for R.H.P.S. in the newspaper. Of course, I was thinking it was something related to Rocky 3. Cut to decades later. One of my favorite karaoke discs that we would just start at track 1 and play the entire thing. They also had a Purple Rain disc. How many Yellow Payges albums does it take to hold up the coffee tables broken leg? Oh yeah. Stranglers albums aren't easy to find here either. But I did find a 12" UK single not that long ago. And that's kinda what I have started my new year off with. Our local shop got maybe 1000 12" singles in. Makes me wish they had a listening station. As there is a lot of strange records in it. And i would probably want to check every single record of some unknown band/person that mentions any year between 1977 to 1986 that has a NYC or Los Angeles address on the label. In hopes that I find some unknown cool ass early rap song that has been long forgotten.

I have never been able to make it further than about 35 minutes into the Rocky Horror Picture Show. I just don’t get it I guess? Lol. I have the VHS, maybe I need to give it one more shot

i always thought SMF was twisted sister fan slang for: Sick Motherfu.... ehh nevermind. Just stay away from the MOV press. any cheapy used 80's cut will squash it.

Yeah we still marry cousins down south. Married my queen 12 years ago this June

Tits is on their double album.

At least 7" jokes are more realistic than 12" jokes. Anyone that says they got a 12", they're lying and probably overcompensating.

Will you be attending the saint Luis record show

Distortion ... Wow

I believe Jerry lee was married at the time he married his 13 year old cousin.
