The vinyl community has really grown since the early days! Yet another great channel, cheers

Wow. Toto Faranheit has to be one of the best sounding recording l own on vynil. Whenever l play it, the tracks certainly blow me away. It has that intricate punch and detailed instruments

Hey Tim! Thanks for the video recap of your pickups from the show! I appreciate the mention, too! Man, I can't believe how disappointed I was in this show. I had such great luck last August that I was kind of expecting to have a repeat experience. Still one of the most organized shows we go to, but something has really changed this time around regarding prices and the crowd. I only walked out with one record, and it certainly wasn't one that I absolutely needed. Happy to see that you picked up INXS Kick! I believe I have a Specialty pressing, too. Sounds so amazing! Definitely a must have album! Cheers to you!

Excellent share, ty! We are fortunate here in STL to have a nearly 40 yr old legendary record store, Vintage Vinyl. They have a super strong soul / r&b / funk section...picked up 100% Pure Poison, Tina Turner's Private Dancer, and a pair of Sly's last month...thumbed past Prince's Parade and am kicking myself (Mountains is an incredible Revolution track). I have a few club pressings that are sensational, agreed...big fan of SRC too. Just finished cleaning 5 Japanese pressings and every one of them simply jaw dropping sonics and clarity.

Always enjoy your vids Tim. I completely agree that vinyl record pricing has reached the absurd level to the point where I have bought just one record in 2024 and value invested in gear to up my streaming experience. I still have my cherished collection that I have amassed in my close to 67 years of vinyl cd and cassettes. Guess I’m spoiled from the days of buying sealed records at a buck apiece when record stores were unloading in favor of CD’s. Great grab on the Dylan promo, Knopfler plays stellar guitar on that one.

A show I’ve had on my radar for a minute. I’ll be there one of these days!

Great finds Tim! Miles'Jack Johnson. Really fine sounding album on the original Columbia press. I have an original woth the alternate cover. Miles trumpet pose side profile pic on cover. It sounds fantastic. And Miles played on Toto Fahrenheight album. Which also sounds fantastic on my Canadian pressing. Underrated album for sure.

Hello Tim, I appreciate your passion for collecting and your insights on engineers, pressings to keep an eye out for, etc. Also, I love seeing that Dream Academy album being enjoyed; maybe it's just 14-year-old me talking, but it's an underrated one. Cheers.

Goldmine magazine used to be where you'd look up when there would be a record show. The magazine and the shows seem to have collapsed.

It looks like you had a lot of fun, good for you! I am not surprised some dealers, not all fortunately!, are putting higher prices on their albums, as long as some buyers don't mind and pay for them, as it is the case, IMO, for those fancy box sets reissues for $150.00. For that price I'd buy a share of Apple or Tesla or......., but not a record.

The fact that both Steve Carlson and the Omaha Introvert complained about the prices suggests that what they saw was out of whack with what they normally see in Michigan and Nebraska. That being said, it points to the fact that record prices sometimes vary in head scratching ways. Thanks for the Blue Note tip. I have started casually looking for some of those dark b pressings. I'm not sure I'll be able to find my preferred artists or titles but it beats some of the current alternatives. I wanted to thank Tim for something else. I just bought a black label Pretzel Logic. I had a decent copy but it wasn't a black label and I wouldn't have even known about this if Tim hadn't mentioned it ( maybe on Steve Westman's channel). Maybe I should be mad that he made me buy a record I already had but I appreciated the info. Thanks again, Tim.

This is actually Herbie Hancock’s car on the Donald Byrd LP. I believe he still has it

Great finds, Tim. Nice to see the Prince/Parade pickup. Overlooked for certain. “Sometimes it Snows in April” is an incredible song, and for this Prince fan, it’s probably the most difficult song for me to listen to since his tragic passing.

Daylight Again is amazing start to finish.

Hi Tim, I went to that show on Sunday. I saw things I have never seen but wow some of the prices were a little crazy. I was looking for grails which was the wrong Tatic as they were priced high. I got a video Thursday on the show

Record prices( used) are up all over. As Gordon Gekko said, greed is good!

Come to Southern California, Los Angeles has some great record stores and record shows, fairs, swap meets, flea markets. So many your record collection will quickly expand and your wallet will shrink fast…☝

The classic rock price gouge has been on its way up ever since the last vinyl “boom” during, and slightly before Covid. It’s stupid. High prices on name alone. I remember the days the entire Fleetwood Mac catalogue was dollar bin fodder.

Fahrenheit never had an OBI.

Great finds and as always, great video Tim!

Great Video! Enjoy your journey hunting for original jazz recordings!

Love your videos, Thank you!

i have a few record club albums, they all sound great!!

Most people like "The Seventh One" more than "Fahrenheit" My top 3 Toto 1. Debut 2. Hydra 3. Fahrenheit What a great band

The Elton DJMs are quite common in the UK and quite cheap- condition not always great as they are well loved - the translucent is a nice bonus - that Prince album is my favourite of his - girls and boys smokes - that album was more popular in Europe than the USA I believe

Hi Tim! Great finds. Hopefully I can find some grales myself this weekend. I’m going to the biggest record show in the world in ‘s Hertogenbosch (Netherlands) Last year I found a mint og copy of English Settlement for €15,-(narrow spine),but when I watched your video ,I was getting worried prices are rising rapidly. So hopefully it’s not to bad overhere in Europe. (This is my only chance by the way to score some fine U.S. pressings) Greetings from Holland

Always a fun time at RMRS. Nice pickups! I was a bit underwhelmed compared to prior years, maybe because my collection is getting bigger and I’m getting pickier. Walked away with a few notable records - Norma Tanega walking my cat named dog mono org & David Allen coe once upon a rhyme promo copy

Out the cradle is on my wantlist too, just too expensive. The cd sounds amazing. That box set is tempting and you got it at a great price.

looks like i have the allied pressing of the INXS - Kick ALBUM, my copy sounds good!!

Hi Tim. You might be running into Steve Carlton At Colorado record shows moving forward. Great records here! I need that Donald Byrd! I have a 3 foot by 2 foot framed poster of that Byrd album cover hanging in my record room but I’ve yet to add that title to my collection lol. INXS has always been a favorite of mine. Thanks for the tip on the Crosby album. I have 3 sealed copies of that album. I can’t wait to split one open and listen to Delta! As always thank you for the continuing education! 💪🏽

Always enjoy your videos, keep up the good work. Looking forward to more top 50 sounding albums. How do you like the HumminGuru? Been considering it myself.

Hey Timmy. The water was beading up too much on that record you had in the guru. Are you using a surfactant? You will need to use a surfactant in order to gain the benefits from the guru as it doesn’t work without it. Love your videos.

I love those OG DJM EK Elton albums. I have most of them except for Madman and Tumbleweed. I also prefer the SuperDisk Goodbye Yellow Brick Road. I was listening to my UK Caribou the other day, sounds great. Elton's albums were well recorded as you know. Blue Moves is the real audiophile record per se. I also have Lindsay Buckingham's Solo Anthology box set. It sounds excellent- great mastering and cutting on that release. Rockaway is a highlight song I like to crank up. Lindsay is a phenom guitarist.

Talking about for example Dire Straits Brothers in Arms being $40. How much do you think this record will sell for in 20 years time in today’s $. Will it be $5 or $100? The CSN is a beauty!

Great Video and nice scores Tim! One point, as someone that loves Jazz, at least for Miles Davis, IMHO the MOFIs usually smoke the OGs. Same story with AP and the Prestige reissues. Just a thought, they’re usually superior (and Cheaper!!) to clean OGs. Of Course MMJ and the Tone Poets are great also!

It sounds like fun to go to a record show. Unfortunately, I'm not aware of any record shows in Southern California.

Thanks for sharing. What are your record store recommendations when I'm in Denver/Boulder?

Tim - I have a lot of jazz doubles if you are interested in trading. Let me know if you have interest? Also do you have the DJM in red translucent of Goodbye Yellowbrick Road? I have a VG+ double. If no interest in trading then no problem. Love the YT channel.
