Great finds! Love Seal! Cannot wait to get my hands on that album. The song Kiss From a Rose was the song my wife and I loved when we dated back in 1995. It was basically our song and is still today.

Awesome Brandon ! You were the first person I thought of when I read that Seal 2 was getting a pressing . More good news ! Godsmack’s Faceless is getting reissued in August ! It’s already up for pre order in their website in two variants. Love that Godsmack are releasing their catalog on vinyl and they are doing it quite fast with Awake just coming out recently. Thank you. Chez

Thanks my friend! It would be awesome if you came down for a visit. ...and always welcome man! I got plenty of extra bedrooms at my place so you guys can totally crash and save that hotel money for more vinyl lol. That would be so awesome and love to have ya!.

So I was looking forward to you doing this video this week because I knew you would have the Seal record in there and I couldn’t wait to see your excitement about it! Very cool my friend. I remember buying that one on cassette actually. I need to remember to pick that one up in the coming weeks. Lots of great stuff as always!

Brandon! How are you? Good to see you! Hey, Ray Parker Jr! I saw him perform on The ‘80’s Cruise this year. He was fantastic! I didn’t know much about his music career. Boy what a great story! Concert was fantastic! He played all his hits along with some killer blues. Awesome guitar player. We also we able to attend an interview with him. Such a nice man, great stories. By the way if you have never been on The ‘80’s Cruise, I highly recommend it!!! Check it! I’m going again next year! Hope to see you there!

I loved your line “Most people know him from the song ghostbusters. That’s his worst song. I can’t stand that song”. 😂😂 I laughed for 5 minutes straight. I couldn’t agree more. I also absolutely hate that song. I can’t wait to get faceless on LP! Take care Brandon! 🤘🏻

Never gave any of Seal's albums a listen before. After watching your video, I pulled it up on KZfaq and gave it a listen. After listening through the first four songs, I drove over Barnes & Noble to pick up a copy. I can't wait to hear the rest of it. Having recently gotten a few of your grails released, (Seal, Godsmack, Paula Cole), what is the next album you're hoping gets a release?
@mrhoffameАй бұрын
Glad you got a copy of that Seal. Side 1 and 2 are pretty much perfection. Such great, emotional music. Since Godsmakc's Faceless is coming out in August, I would say the next ones on my list for a press would be Seal IV, Godsmack's IV & Oracle, the 3rd Bruce Springsteen box set, Better Than Ezra- Friction Baby, and Rick Braun- Greatest Hits. At least off the top of my head lol.
