Road trip record hunt - how it played out & the rarity I found in Minneapolis

[@EzaVinylAddict]

I have a Toronto Prince story, he would go to a club called This is London and a friend of mine was a server there in the bottle service area and she had Prince a few times and he would order bottles for his entourage but for himself he wanted his own drinks brought. He told her he didn’t want his individual drinks on the tab and each time she brought him a drink he paid with a $100 bill and tell her to keep the change.

[@Channel33RPM]

Wow!!! Good tipper!

[@AllMediaReviewsPodcast]

Thar doesn't surprise me per Prince never owned a cellphone either.

[@danrusin]

you’d love Agharta, I’ve had great luck there lately. right across the street from Barely Brothers Records and Keys Cafe so it’s a great little zone to check out

[@AllMediaReviewsPodcast]

Yes Agharta is awesome!

[@TheFrugalAudiophile]

I too, have noticed the price creep at the big box stores here in the states. This is why I purchased most of my vinyl used at thrift stores and on eBay.

[@jessesmith555]

Minneapolis is my home. Fetus is great. The old Cheapo Uptown was actually bigger than the one now. Roadrunner is great. So many other great ones. Barely Brothers, Agartha, Mill City Sound, and Hymies.

[@Buried_in_Wax]

Minneapolis local here, some other great record stores you missed that you should 100% check out next time you're here (in no particular order) are Disco death, lucky cat records, the record spot, urban lights music, Mill City sound, extreme noise records. And if you want to make a little drive there is a cocktail listening bar called macanda HiFi!

[@Channel33RPM]

Thanks for the tips!

[@dimebagdave77]

Many thanks Frank and Family!✌️✌️✌️ safe travels, good times

[@PJHVols]

As far as Target here in the states, their records are over priced so I tend to wait a couple months and they inevitably go on clearance. I picked up a copy of Pearl James new 40 plus dollar record for $12 a week ago

[@dannyb.3924]

There is a Target near me that places the clearance LPs in a wooden crate. I recently picked up Tina Turner's Simply The Best which is a hits collection for $11.49 and Kacey Musgraves's Deeper Well for $10.37. Have found some other excellent deals there as well.

[@analoguecity3454]

$30 is not overpriced for something that was 9 10 dollars in the early 80s! It's unreasonable to expect it not to increase in especially in this recession! On the inflation calculator it comes out almost exactly $30!

[@dannyb.3924]

@@analoguecity3454 I agree with you except we are not in a recession. We could be headed for one in the next 12 to 18 months but we are not in one.

[@james_schneiderwind]

Great find man! I also picked up a copy of Pearl Jam’s VS for $7 in the clearance at Target. It’s always worth the wait to see what gets discounted

[@ProfessorEchoMedia]

This video was so much fun and you certainly kept it visually interesting, not like visiting the neighbors to see their crummy vacation slides! Really enjoyable seeing Sir Frank and his Royal Family embracing the summer! Loved The Fetus! Imagine all the hippies who hung out there when it opened in 1968! Acid flashbacks haunting that place! Welcome home, man, and thanks for sharing this really cool holiday trip! 💿

[@jacobleither6143]

Next time you’re in the Twin Cities, check out Mill City Sound in Hopkins (just west of Minneapolis). My #1 favorite record store of all time. Tons of used vinyl, 45s, CDs, new vinyl, and even some audio gear!

[@burmajones803]

This is the store to visit, for sure.

[@Channel33RPM]

Will do - thanks for the tip.

[@benjamin3419]

Glad you made it to the Twin Cities! Next time you have to check out my personal favorite stores: Down in the Valley and Agharta Records! Love the Channel!

[@tompatchak8706]

Drive By Truckers have a song called Greenville to Baton Rouge off their Southern Rock Opera album. Lots of Easter eggs to Skynyrd,😊

[@MelindaMurphy]

I enjoyed hearing about your adventures. It's awesome that the last record you showed still has the order form 🔥 Have a great week.

Thanks Melinda! I hope you are settling in to your new place ... and hope your furniture has arrived!

[@shmuckler]

Wow you should have grabbed that The Wall bc it identifies as a DSOTM and costs accordingly😂 Great road trip Frank, keep it up!

[@CanisDirusMetal]

Cheapo is a great place. Next time you are back here you should spend more time there. They also have a location in St Paul and one in Blaine which is a suburb of Minneapolis.

[@Channel33RPM]

I definitely hope to spend more time there.

[@patbarr1351]

Such a well put together adventure, Frank! The Barnes & Noble store managers have been given a lot of independence by the mothership, which has worked well for the chain. My closest B & Ns (San Gabriel Valley & Long Beach, Calif.) both still have pretty good music sections, although the CD section is smaller due to competition with LPs.

[@vintagevinylvets1187]

Loved this video Frank! It’s always great to see you and your wife together in your videos. Sounded like you all had a great time. As far as Prince goes, we’re fans too. We’ve followed him since his debut,”For You.,” mainly due to where I grew up. “Purple Rain” is a great recording and was originally mastered by Bernie Grundman. We would love to see more videos of you visiting record stores. They all seem to have their own story.-Chris & Beth🎧

[@Channel33RPM]

Glad you enjoyed it!

Glad you found some time to get away with the family (and dig through a few crates;) ⚡️⚡️ Great video Frank!

[@tokyorecordstyle]

Great video! Enjoyed traveling to the states with you. I have two kids just slightly older than your I guess and I can relate to record life and being on the road with family! Take care and greetings from Tokyo!

[@snicklefritzsnicklefritz5069]

Hello Frank & Sheri. I noticed Sheri always mentions Texas. I saw them on their first tour for Southside in Philadelphia at a small club, the Chestnut Cabaret, for only $8 US. Included was also a cassette copy of Southside. Cassettes at that time were around $8 so essentially, I got the show for free. Loved them ever since. Have a serious crush on Sharleen Spiteri, still.😍😍😍

[@eternalhalloween1]

Hey Frank. I miss the record store. Like I said, I not enough people were buying records there in the end. PRINCE? One of my dogs is named PRINCE. Another is ROY ORBISON. That's nice that you were recognized. $40. for a BON JOVI record is just crazy.

[@grahambiggs9822]

Great video Frank and nice holiday with the family. Great to see you sneaking one or two record shops in along the way. I think I could have spent a couple of days in Cheapo records - that place looks awsome. Thanks for sharing and keep on spinnin !!

[@Channel33RPM]

Thanks for tuning in, Graham. I hope your summer is going well.

[@panelsandplatters]

I was just in Minneapolis in May for a work trip, and I also visited Electric Fetus and found some great stuff. I had limit myself, as I could only fit so much in my luggage. Hope to visit that store again. I didn't realize Prince used to shop there. Great video and pickups!

[@ThiKu]

Ya you are being picky but also aren’t wrong!! I listen to loads of vinyl podcasts and Minneapolis apparently has a legendary number of excellent record stores. You were blessed to be able to go!

[@RYANLOWEMPLS]

That's great that you came to Minneapolis. Roadrunner is a very nice store for sure. I rarely head out there but never leave empty handed. Fetus is just ok. I live 2 blocks north but rarely stop in. Our store is Extreme Noise Records. Volunteer run and collectively owned for 30 years now. Be sure to stop in next time you are in town!

[@audioeeze8396]

I will say, at least Best Buy's sign didn't say 1000's more vinyl's. Oh, and nice score on the Lynyrd Skynyrd record.

[@henrys3629]

My sister lives in Rochester MN, I guess an hr + from Minneapolis. One of my friends was related to Prince so I'd try to find him Prince records. Walmart & Target still have Adele 30. Now I keep my eye out for that LS record.

[@thetubesrock]

Glad you had a good time down here in the USA! I hope to get up in your parts sooner than later. I'm retiring next year so 🤞

[@yyman23]

Thanks for the video, Frank. I'm heading to Minneapolis next month and I was just researching record stores to check out

[@shillman9]

Thanks for the video Frank. Hope you and the family had a great time and hope that your daughter is feeling better. Also glad you found a Raising Cane’s. Did you know that Post Malone actually owns and designed his own store? There is an R C right around the corner from my favorite record store here in Alabama and my son and I go there every time we visit the store.

[@BriansVinylRecords]

Glad you enjoyed your trip to Minneapolis. It’s too bad you didn’t have more time because you would have been blown away by Mill City Sound just outside of Minneapolis in Hopkins, MN. He has over 50k records for sale there. It’s a fun place to spend a few hours. Cheapo has a location in Blaine, MN that is a CD Heaven. There aren’t as many records, but if you want CDs, that place is awesome.

[@gnayr1305]

My wife & I loved this video (and these “get-to-know” Frank & the family in general videos). Thank you for sharing. We are happy that you had a good time in the US. Good pickups as well. For my two cents, I would have wrote “Thousands of Records” or “More Vinyl” online at Best Buy…😉

[@jimb2416]

Great video Frank! Nice to see something a bit different. And perhaps from somewhere I'll never get a chance to go to. Kudos for including us on your outing. I agree with the idea that smaller record stores are better. Although not always. We have a brand new family owned record store that's opened up recently near me. I dropped in to support them. It's small, clean and well run. But I found their prices a bit higher than usual. Keep your Discogs close at hand to compare prices! Keep on spinning Frank 👍

[@ronaldweed6103]

I really enjoyed your share. I've been to a few of those cities,but sadly, i wasn't into music (2011). Yes😂 it was weird time for me,ha!! Purple Rain is still my favorite. I was interduced to his music back in 1985. I will find that album.

[@AllMediaReviewsPodcast]

Cool video! Minneapolis/St.Paul is my hometown (St.Paul specificially), so this video naturally appealed to me. I actually met Prince at Cheapo in Minneapolis in 2009. I filmed a video a few years ago telling about it on my channel, and wrote in my blog about it in 2009. So, while The Electric Fetus may have been his favorite record store, he shopped for music at many places. He even owned a clothing store down the street from Cheapo on Lake Street at 1 point (Cheapo was located in a few spots, but the previous address was on Lake Street). It was called "New Power Generation" which of course was the band and Fanclub he formed (after The Revolution broke up). So if/when you make another trip down to the Twin Cities, you probably should plan to spend some more time at Cheapo. Even besides the Minneapolis location, the St.Paul one is worth checking out as well, which is 1 of my wife and I'd regular RSD spots; we kind of stopped going to the Fetus for RSD (chronicled in our Record Store Day Videos on my channel going back 10 years), due to how mobbed it became. Having to take a number and wait hours to finally go try and pickup the special RSD items. But yeah, the Twin Cities do have a lot to go see and do, beyond even the Mall of America. And music stores included. My favorites in recent years beyond Cheapo are Agharta Records and Barely Brothers in St.Paul. I guess it depends on how much time you have and what you are looking to do. Restaurants, Sports, Theater or Museums even? etc.

[@ivozanette7010]

Very cool. Picked my copy of Street Survivors ( 2 copies as a matter of fact, the other gifted to my cousin) in ' 82 on my first trip to Italy. I was pleasantly surprized to find it at the tine. My cousin being a huge Skynyrd fan was extremely grateful to get this original pressing.

[@carravagio16]

LOL Frank you had to "bleep" out sheri! seems like the family had a good trip. thanks for sharing!

[@dannyb.3924]

Great video Frank and Sheri! I love it as I live just slightly northwest of Minneapolis about 13/14 miles away. I love Electric Fetus. They used to have one in Duluth but that closed in either 2020 or 2021. I loved going there every year when we take our annual trips. And of course the one in Minneapolis is great! I live just a few minutes from the Cheapo records in Blaine and go there monthly. Another fun place to go! I am glad you enjoyed your time here! I can't believe you didn't let me know you were coming! 🤣 😉

[@robshabel8334]

Glad you made it to road runner. That place is great and has an amazing vibe. My favorite shops are that and Mill City in Hopkins. Hopkins is a suburb, but its well worth the effort.

[@memal25]

Excited to watch this video and see if you found a grail record!

[@johngaldieri5535]

Amazing trip - you’re Family is Beautiful - Northern New Jersey loves you :)

[@PrankZabba]

Wow. Those ACDC gold albums here are $60 each. Even with the exchange, that sounds like a good deal. Roadrunner reminds of what Rotate This was like in Toronto, but before they moved 2 times ago. I haven't even been in the new store since they moved to their most recent store. It's always places like that in those small places that have great stuff. Sweet score that Skynard album had everything in it.

[@cwhitchblu]

I live in a northwest suburb of Minneapolis. I shop at the Blaine Cheapo and sometimes the Maple Grove Down in the Valley. Cheapo stores definitely have a large selection of new and used. My only complaint with their used is they put a price on the vinyl center’s track listing. Those are hard to remove. What gets me with Best Buy is they dropped physical movie discs in store and online but now they are carrying 1000s of records online. No reason they couldn’t have kept movie discs online too. There’s probably a huge profit margin on these older records that keep getting reissued. My price cap for a record is $40. Hope you enjoyed Minneapolis.

[@nbenning25]

Great video! Have a copy of “Street Survivors” hanging on the wall … I need to check to see if there are is any extras as well … Cheers!

[@mrnoadable]

Twin Cities 33-er, and I will point you to Mill City Records (Hopkins, MN), and Hymie's Records on Lake Street. They are both size-wise between the Cheapo you went to and Electric Fetus. So, pretty big, great selection of used, great vibes. I haven't been to Road Runner, will check it out. Electric Fetus seems like a clique-ish place the times I've been there. Don't need to go back.

Glad you had a great trip Frank, thanks for the video. You should put that Street Survivors in a nice Rice Paper inner (keep the original of course 😊)

[@alm5693]

This was fun to watch as a Twin Cities native. Love The Fetus, hate Cheapo (most shitty records under one roof). Road Runner is a treasure and there are dozens of small stores like it all over the Twin Cities. Next time you're in town check out the area near University Avenue near Raymond Avenue. Classic breakfast restaurant nearby and two or three stores in the neighborhood.

[@Channel33RPM]

Thanks for the tip. I will check out that area next time.

[@dalepafford5732]

I really enjoyed the video, & I was pleasantly surprised. I have an original “Street Survivors” from Lynyrd Skynyrd, with the inserts too. I don’t think I had ever heard you mention Lynyrd Skynyrd before this, but they’re one of my all time favorites. I do want to go & check out these record stores too, I’ve never been to Minnesota. Keep on spinnin’.

[@Channel33RPM]

I suppose I "discovered" Skynyrd around 25 years ago when I saw them at a festival. I always thought if I found an original pressing of Street Survivors, I would grab it. Thanks for the comment.

[@raggeragnar]

Hello Frank ! Excellent roadtrip for you and your nice family. You have some huge sized record stores on that side of the puddle. The average here in Sweden are about half of the Roadrunner records store featured in your video. Hence ; a much larger selection available for you guys. I’m a little surprised about the rising prices though. Yours doesn’t seem to stop. Here they’ve gone up a little for new releases and reissues on two separate occations. Once in 2019 and the other 2023. We pay about $22-$26 usd for an Lp and $33-$47 usd for a double album. (approximately calculated from Swedish crowns) Used records have stayed about the same since 2015-16. Normally $3-$8 usd. Rare used records goes for what supply and demand dictates of course. Starting around $25/$30 usd and upwards to $350/$450 usd for boxsets and audiophile pressings. They all know if they push too hard , we push back by NOT buying anything , because we’re stubborn sums-a-beechez. Keep rocking. /R

Hey Frank I too was just in Minneapolis, got back yesterday saw GREENDAY and Metallica there over the weekend 🤘 I too went to the Fetus and agree with your comments, it was crazy busy in there when we were there, I think due to many in town for the shows. Sheri destined the other part of EF aptly, as my lovely wife said almost the exact same thing. I also went to Roadrunner and again agree with your sentiments, great store, I needed some more time though, again more new then I expected. Lastly I also went to a Target, selection was meh and prices nothing special, the only thing it had going for it were target exclusives. Urban outfitters had some albums again price was not great and selection was standard fair. Great video and glad your trip went well. For the record Metallica was good GREENDAY was awesome!! Between the two shows I was 10 sets, 9 bands, and 2 stadiums. Great weekend! Next time head to Matt’s to eat, go for a Jucy Lucy. Take care Frank

Wow a 7 hour drive. Mind you you did have stoppages. I don't mind the silver boarders, but the main picture on the Purple Rain is far too dark. It doesn't look right as opposed to the original I thought the Lynyrd Skynyrd original issue would be scarce and expensive. Suprisingly, it's quite cheap.

It should be "1000s more vinyl records..."; what's tripping you up is the word "vinyl" alone. I too find it strange when my daughter asked me "how many vinyls do you have?". But I guess there are many words for the same thing: album, LP, record, vinyl, 12" (which is particularly jarring since it means a 12" single to me, but not to the younger generation.)

[@frankjames6703]

MCA never did “recall” SS Flame cvr they just ceased making the cover and took the photo from the back and repositioned the titles and pressed a new version of the cover . Everyone gets it wrong by claiming they airbrushed the flames out . That is incorrect. The back photo is a different picture but was from the same photo shoot. The og cvr was shipped in large quantities thus not a difficult record to find . Still it is one of Skynyrd’s best . Interesting Ed King and two members of Blackfoot Greg T Walker (bass) and Rickey Medlicke (drums )is playing on that album .”One More Time “is a earlier take on a song unreleased and did some overdubs creating a releasable version . It is rumored that Pyle and Gaines were given the task of going through Skynyrd’s vault and selecting songs for a album to be released shorty after SS. Of course at the time no title was chosen but due to plane crash it was titled Skynyrd’s First and Last .
