Thanks for introducing me to The Dramatics. Hot Pants In The Summertime is permanently stuck in my head!!!!! Definitely one for the collection.

[@vinylrecordplayer]

Glad you like it! Yeah, that album is fantastic. "Hot Pants..." Is definitely a wicked deep cut. Cheers! 😁

"I was 12 hours out on strawberry flats..." great opening song. Also love "Crazy Captain Steamboat Willie", offbeat as it is.

[@PhilBaird1]

Thanks Craig. Some lovely rare vinyl there and excellent recommendations. Liked and subscribed.

[@vinylrecordplayer]

Thanks for stopping by, Phil. Deeply appreciate the comment! 😁

[@TyroneEpps]

This is great😊😊😊😊

Crazy Horse first album came out in 1971. This is without Neil Young on it, very much a classic country rock sound, very good album.

Bill withers! I need that one. Great video

[@vinylrecordplayer]

Hey, thanks Jason. Appreciate the comment! Hope you're well! 😁

[@vinylmartini3377]

Fantastic choices. Coincidentally,I just happened to listen to that NRPS album last night. Not a dud track on it. Cheers.

[@vinylrecordplayer]

Right? Could be their best, although Powerglide is strong, too. Thanks for watching! 😁

[@edwardgonczy3170]

Spencer Dryden, not Mickey Hart, recently let go by Jefferson Airplane, was the initial drummer for New Riders. Otherwise, great video and some LPs for me to pick up.

[@vinylrecordplayer]

Thanks! For the kudos and the correction! 😁

Pro tip. Get a microphone that can be closer to your voice, to cut down on the annoying room reflections. It will make it much easier to hear what you're saying.

[@vinylrecordplayer]

Appreciate it. Yeah. My sound does need help. I'll look into a good mic.🤘😁

[@andyshacks7812]

Oh yes I love that Dramatics album. It’s on my wantlist but I haven’t come across a copy yet in the wild. I will one day!

[@vinylrecordplayer]

Yep, it's such a great record. What shocked me with them is how good their stuff post Stax is, even in the midst of disco! Cheers Andy!😁

[@Yougotadollar]

I'm going to check out that Little Feat album. Same for NRPS.

[@vinylrecordplayer]

The Little Feat in particular is waaaayyy underrated. Very rockin'.😁

[@fractuss]

@@vinylrecordplayerAs good as any of 'em.

[@Yougotadollar]

I found a Little Feat box set on eBay. The first 5 cds for $18!

[@hovz-zo8lf]

You look like Denny Doherty, bro

[@mrmusic248]

Little Feat's 1st was released in 1969.

[@vinylrecordplayer]

@@mrmusic248 You'll want to let Discogs, Wikipedia, Rhino, the Warner Brothers label archives and probably a few hundred other sources know about this. 😉

[@christoddur]

Forgot two GREAT debuts from two ICONIC female singers who would reach higher heights later in their careers: OLIVIA NEWTON-JOHN - If Not for You KIM CARNES - Rest On Me Both albums are sublime, Sunday morning classics.

[@vinylrecordplayer]

Wow. Excellent mentions. I shall put both of these in the Streaming mix this weekend. Thanks for the heads up and appreciate the comment! 😁
