That Bob Marley is beyond cool. I hope you had a beautiful Birthday.

Awesome got a bob marley shirt on while watching this , cool touch story what a trip! Amazing Channel your gonna love that Marley set

A Redeye? Happy B Day but, more importantly, congratulations on the great-grandchild!

Hey Topper! Love hearing the stories. Oooo, Ultimate Sinatra! Wow, this VCLT is insane! I love Tommy from the Who, of course! So awesome to see your OG of that! You got the booklet again! I just saw another VC member show that Comfortable Chair LP. Killer grails and VCLT! Happy birthday!

Looks like a lot of vinyl love for the Topper. That Bob Marley box is amazing, a lot of listening can be done with it.

Hey Topper! Happy belated birthday my friend, and a huge thanks for the shoutout in this video. I'm so happy I was able to get that album into your hands. More-so now than ever after hearing that incredible story about how it eluded you for all these years....your white whale! Haha. You had some killer VCLT's in this video...Dick Clark, The Searchers, SRV, the list goes on and on. Funny story about the Sonics too...Boom for $25 would have been a one in a lifetime find lol. All the best Topper, have a great weekend and talk to you soon!

Holy Canoli that Bob Marley box set looks so cool!

Hi Topper! Soon 8000 subscribers! Prepare the show! Happy birthday from France ! Take care. Peace, Love and Rock'n'Roll!

something similar happened to me in my childhood I listened to the radio in the province of Mexico (that is saying a lot at that time and now there is almost no rock on the radio) in the early 90's the Live At Knebworth album, that made me the head, I did not know all the bands that played over time became my musical reference, I got the record but someone stole it from me since then I have not managed to get it for me that is my grail is not much I know but for someone who It is from Mexico I assure you that it is something transcendent

I love that TOUCH album. I also have an original. Plus to save it a CD of it.

All about the music. Your videos help me. Thank you so much.

Whoa!!!😱😱😱😱 that Marley is just too much Topper too much, vclt very cool and the Touch album I’m happy about that, oh and happy belated birthday 🎂 Man my head is still spinning over the Marley..love me some DC5, searchers, Billy J Kramer heck yeah, dig the art books!! Peace n love brother T ✌🏻n ❤️....Lis

I bought a VG+ Tommy at a thrift store the other day for 1.75. Thrilled! Love your channel.

Odd Box! You had talked of a Band called the Sonics and showed an album by them called "The Savage Young Sonics". And then I remembered having an album called "The Savage Young Beatles" with the cover being exactly the same with the only differences, obviously the band names and the photo on the Beatles album being the boys in a German yard with/on a military truck.

My grail is the 3 LP gatefold of Unsolved Mysteries: The Original Series Soundtrack. 100 pressed. It's currently on it's way to my mailbox and I'm seriously stoked.

Another great video. Looks like you had a nice Birthday! Really cool Bob Marley set.

Great Mandelbrot set reference!!!!!

Great video my friend. I like how you can just sit and talk. I like hearing story's from the past. I think of grails the same way as you. Some of mine are worth nothing to others but something to me and were hard to find.

Bloodrock Live is the grail I’m looking for. Had it as teenager, but lost it sometime back.

Great video I especially enjoy your reminiscing on your youth and musical discoveries

Great story. And Happy Birthday.

1973 is the date Sopwith Camel came out Mr Topper........ Didn't know about the artist........ Regards

Wicked cool story on that Touch lp. No one deserves to have it in their possession more than you. Makes me want to investigate the band more. Enjoyed! Andre’

Nice story behind the Touch album.

Hello Topper. Happy Belated Birthday to you. I enjoyed your own interpretation of the term “Grail”. I agree that the term is an item is one that I wanted for a long time and could not find it anywhere. I enjoyed seeing everything you show here. Take care Topper

Happy birthday 🎈🎼🎵🎶🎸

Happy belated birthday, Topper! That Bob Marley discography is so awesome 😍 congratulations on the expected great-grandbaby! The baby can look forward to a lifetime of great tunes 😁

Great story sometimes it takes decades to find the great gems thanks man.

I’ve seen that Touch album once or twice without knowing what it was. I’m curious to track it down now. I’d like to get a copy of that sonics record too sometime. You sound like a blessed man with such great family and friends. Terrific video as always.

Touch. Cool find. A different kind of record. Prog.

Happy Birthday Mr. Topper and to many more and to many more vinyl finds

Happy Birthday Man!

Cheers!

Happy Birthday Topper !!!!

That Touch album is great, I have the same one.

Like your stories.

Happy belated birthday obt really dig your channel keep on keeping on from Northern California

lots of great additions to you collection. Thumbs up!

I think the Touch Lp was actually a northwest group called Don and The Goodtimes. who had a fairly sizeable hit with I could be so Good to You on the Epic label in 1967 (?). They had other discs on Dunhill and Jerden. Also have a Touch 45 on Cotillion. How they got their LP as Touch on the Deram label i know not.

Hi Topper. A trade, a birthday, a booklet, a zippo box, news of another great child... this had it all. Thanks for sharing. Cheers, Jeff

Great VCLT , Topper, Love the Marley box set.

Happy Belated Birthday Topper Glad you got the Touch Album you've been looking for and you hit the nail on the head when you said that a grail doesn't have to be a truck-ton of money it just has to mean something special to you or a person of The Vinyl Community That was killer of your Daughter to bring you that box of killer records

great story about your quest to get the Touch album Topper. Love it when someone is so determined to find the music they want. Always makes me feel good when you post videos. Many thanks. BTW Happy belated Birthday.

I found an og copy of touch by coincidence a few weeks ago at my local thrift store along with a stack of beatles records. It blew my mind on the first spin. Thanks for sharing, topper!

hi topper, wow, great vinyl of all kinds! that bob marley vinyl set looks beautiful and loved those 60s british bands to. I was not familiar with touch but your story about this band was very interesting and after all those years you finally score one. between the birthday gifts and vclt you did really well in obtaining some terrific music!, thanks for sharing , rob

Wow, that "The Comfortable Chair" album sounds really interesting, right down my alley. I've never even heard of that band before. So I went and had a listen online and yes, great find! Thanks for the heads-up.

Time to make some more great vinyl videos. Great content here and product ha. Have a great day and happy birthday

Hey happy birthday bro! Chris has a great Channel supper cool guy. I am going to check out that band. Peace

I’m with you on the grails brother. I finally got a copy of UFO “Strangers in the Night”. I bet I’ve listened to it all the way through about 30 times since I got it a month ago! I get vinyl that I want to listen to. I’m not trying to get rich off of it.

Very cool finds here...and happy birthday mine is in a few days Topper..thanx for sharing and take care

Hey topper. Great finds and happy bday! That touch album looks great! My birthday was the 19th. Enjoy bud!

Hey there Mr T, I guess you know that the original UK issue of the Wailers Catch a Fire was in the form of a zippo lighter. Most surviving copies are pretty much damaged in some way. Glad you enjoyed your birthday treats. Keep these videos coming my friend

Hello Happy belated birthday. It seems you've had the time off your life. Great story about the Tommy Lp. I allso do own the first pressing inc the liricsheet and pictures. It's allway's nice if something is complete. Keep spinning that vinyl.

I found a decent copy of Touch a couple years ago. Fantastic album! Yours looks to be in much better condition than mine.

Happy Birthday Topper, I’m so glad you were able to find some of your personal grails. That Touch record looks super cool and Chris is a great guy I’m glad he was able to hook you up on a OG copy. I’ve always liked the first Rush album. Wow that complete recordings of Bob Marley is amazing what an awesome gift. Cheers Sean

Hi Topper! You are very cool dude) I always smile when I watch your vidos. Thank. In Russia they love you)

Congratulations on your impending new family member! The original Catch a Fire UK pressing was shaped like a lighter. Sorry, Bigboxbobby2! I missed your post! Didn't Beaver and Krause help Stevie Wonder program his synthesizers on his early '70s albums?

Must be TN whiskey

I love your Chris has the Spins story I have a similar story I too watched the video of his impressive haul of late 60s early 70s Psych and Classic Rock albums He showed a record that I have actively been seeking It was Joe Byrd and the Field Hippies album and we were able to come to terms and I know own an OG copy of that great Psych record You just never know what you’re gonna run into and this KZfaq Vinyl Community is a great bunch of folks who genuinely appreciate each other so yeah Great stuff Mr Topper By the way I am a huge fan of your channel and have been for a long time Thanks for sharing Man Peace ☮️ Cosmic Brian

Do you have an album called "Bird In A Cage" instrumental music from the very early 70s?

hello i have a question.. wich camera do you use ? did you have a mikrophone on it ? cheers from germany

You are great sir One record Plyar send me I thanks to you sir

What he drinking though

It’s funny I love a ton of the albums you talk about but this one along with all other psychedelic rock I find to be just complete trash almost as bad as rap. But then A guy like you likes it. I respect you and your opinion but I still just cannot understand it. Music is funny that way haha
