CHEAP QUALITY CDS AT THE CHARITY SHOP 30 CDS FOR £5

[@CBCDs]

I'm impressed that you found so many good albums in one location and for such a good price. I live in the western US and the cheapest I see CDs are $1 - some of the thrift shops have started raising them to $1.50 or $2... ugh. But it's really rare around here to find good titles like that, especially that many. I need to move to the UK

[@robwalkerletthemusicplay]

Hi, I think there’s always an element of fortune when you stumble across so many great titles . Personally if it’s a cd I want £2 is a bargain but generally I pay £1 each or in this case a lot less .. thanks for watching and commenting 👍

[@nicksvinylbutty5488]

There's no denying you picked up some right old bargains there Rob. I got another copy of Quadrophenia on CD just before Christmas,to keep in the car and it's been on constant play ever since !!! I also picked up a couple of ska albums that were being promoted by bands on Facebook. It has to be something that really catches my eye/grabs my attention on CD for me to buy it nowadays. Having said that,I'm finding that some bands I really enjoy,made the jump from vinyl to CD and if you want a complete album discography by them,you've gotta buy the CD's.

[@robwalkerletthemusicplay]

Hi nick I know you’re not the biggest cd fan, but these prices can’t be ignored . Auadrophinia on any format is the best 😀👍

[@andysalbums]

Blade Runner was 84, Rob, but the album wasn't released until 94. My fav soundtrack. I've got a fair few of those CDs from back in the day and they were a tad more expensive! That was an amazing haul, especially for the money. Charity shops near me never have anything worth buying. Nice one Rob

[@robwalkerletthemusicplay]

Hi Andy , £5 was a crazy price , records will always be my preference but cd prices at the moment can’t be ignored. .. also I’m enjoying the new mogwai album thanks for watching 👍

[@geecrypto]

Just come across your video mate . What a great haul at such cheap prices, it's great to discover some new music.Blade runner great film also my favourite film and sound track , so I'm guessing we're a similar age and attitude. Great video keep it up .

[@robwalkerletthemusicplay]

Hi, cd prices can’t be ignored at the moment, I have a large record collection but in 2025 maybe I’ll be buying more CDs especially at these prices. Thanks for watching and commenting it’s really appreciated 👍

[@wax_n_wine]

Great haul! Awesome price (can't even argue if you love music in the physical format) and very cool selection of music. I am in the same boat and buy CDs again because a lot of the records I am after are just too expensive on vinyl.

[@robwalkerletthemusicplay]

Hi, I’ll always buy records but these prices can’t be ignored plus at these prices making blind buys isn’t a costly mistake.. thanks for watching and commenting 👍

[@andrewbrazier9664]

John Marytn is a classic

[@robwalkerletthemusicplay]

Totally agree. Thanks for watching 👍

[@georgeprior-vinylshowtell4934]

Even in this day and age, that is crazy cheap for those titles, nicely done! 😮😊 It will be interesting to see how this trend continues over coming years.

[@robwalkerletthemusicplay]

Hi George , at these prices CDs can’t be ignored.. I think I’ll be buying more CDs than records in 2025 thanks for watching 👍

[@Burky666]

Wow that’s a great quality haul. You can’t walk past them at that price

[@robwalkerletthemusicplay]

Hi, couldn’t agree more … I made a few nice discoveries.. thanks for watching and commenting it’s appreciated 👍

[@andrewbrazier9664]

What you pay is a donation to the charity. They need to turn the stock over to keep the shop viable.

[@robwalkerletthemusicplay]

Hi Andrew in some cases they’ve stopped taking donations on certain products. As mentioned in the comments some charities don’t even accept CDs! Thanks for watching 👍

[@chrisfox2890]

Great find. One of my local charity shops has been doing CDs at 10p each for about 10 years now. On one visit I got 83 for £8...!

[@robwalkerletthemusicplay]

Hi Chris 10p is a price I’ve seen at car boot sales .. 80 for £8 is madness ! Well done 👍. Thanks for watching

[@davidatkinson-Music-and-More]

Hi Rob, I've never stopped buying CDs, not least because they've become incredible value over recent years. Some superb examples in your haul. Bluejeans and Moonbeams is a winner. I really like his Virgin Records period. Much more accessible. Pet Sounds, Teenage Fanclub, Searching for Sugarman, Eels, Gang of Four, Big Star, Tattoo You, Lana Del Rey, Solid Air, Vangelis; crikey, what a brilliant pile of bargains.

[@robwalkerletthemusicplay]

Hi Dave , my cd collection is pretty healthy and I’m always on the look out for a bargain a bit like yourself😀 .. cheers Dave 👍

[@andrewbrazier9664]

Agree Style Council will be well worth listening too.

[@robwalkerletthemusicplay]

Hi, that compilation has some great lesser known style council tracks. Thanks for watching 👍

[@EmbryonicRobot]

Well, that is a fabulous haul. I had the same reaction as you did to that Byrds album. The Eels are great. I would have grabbed some of these for that price 👍

[@robwalkerletthemusicplay]

Hi Brian .. like myself I know you’re no fan of country music .. maybe in time I might grow to like this album .. but for the moment I wasn’t that impressed.. thanks for watching.. have great weekend 👍

[@darcyska]

What amazing finds!

[@robwalkerletthemusicplay]

Thanks for watching 👍😀

[@britpopbuzz8564]

Hi Rob that is a great selection of CDs you picked up. You are lucky with that charity shop. A few around me are pricing theirs to what they see on eBay and also discogs. Looking for storage is on my list of things this year as well but that's not cheap.

[@robwalkerletthemusicplay]

@@britpopbuzz8564 hi David, I think oxfam uses Discogs.. in the charity shop I go to they have so many they just want to get rid of them .. they have a media area where CDs are £1 .. but another area where it’s not as organised and it’s in another building so I head there first … thanks for watching 👍

[@REPLICANT84]

Cdscare now averaging 25p in England retro stores etc.

[@robwalkerletthemusicplay]

Hi, at those prices CDs can’t be ignored thanks for watching 👍

[@johnalexander-t6d]

a lot of charity shops near me have stopped selling cds, say they're not worth the shelf space... that said all they ever seemed to have in was susan boyle, paul potts and dido or the corrs...

[@robwalkerletthemusicplay]

Hi John , you’d think CDs would be a nice money earner for charity shops with little physical media on the high street .. most people don’t have an issue paying £1 .. my local one sells them for £1 .. but they have another area at 6 for 1 … thanks for watching it’s appreciated 👍

[@Springheeledjim5]

Love bites, the essential album by Buzzcocks! A fairly accessible set of tracks for a punk band. Pete Shelley was incomparable, probably one of my favourite lead singers! Great vid, Rob.

[@robwalkerletthemusicplay]

Hi Jim , I’ve a few Pete Shelly solo albums not easy to find but when you do the price is usually affordable.. thanks for watching and commenting 👍

[@MGKBOSTON]

Those are crazy deals. Captain Beefheart not for free for me. I tried them a few times but I just couldn’t get it. Tattoo You is a good one. I only have a copy of Pet Sounds from way back. Ironically at that time I would’ve paid substantially more than your copy. Seeing that Blade Runner soundtrack makes me want to get more soundtracks. I’m a big Style Council fan. I saw The Verve on that tour at a club in Toronto. Psycho Candy is a cool album. Awesome Rob! ✌️

[@Boatzerama]

Great deal Rob. I still buy CD’s especially some of the dance mix music that you can’t stream.

[@robwalkerletthemusicplay]

Hi , those Dance compilations are everywhere.. I left some behind I need to go back 😀. Thanks for watching and commenting 👍

[@harrysmusicroom]

now is the time to buy them while they're still cheap. Some nice titles! My favorite Big Star is "Thirteen". That Chicago album is their BEST! Terry Kath was an awesome guitarist.

[@robwalkerletthemusicplay]

Hi harry I want to get to know big star so that compilation is a great start .. I do like early Chicago Ive a few albums by them .. thanks for watching harry , best wishes to you in 2025 👍

[@Carl-x8y3c]

Hi. Coincidental i was playing that Searching for Sugarman movie soundtrack tonight. I like it and i did see the film when it came out. I have a number of film soundtracks, i would like that Blade Runner movie soundtrack that you have. Gang of Four are a favorite band of mine. I would like that cd that you have there. You did well .

[@robwalkerletthemusicplay]

Hi , I’m also really pleased to find Bladerunner maybe having the cd is the best format due to the quieter passages . The first 3 gang of 4 albums are my favourites I was delighted to find that compilation. Thanks for watching and commenting 👍

[@vinyldale]

Done well there Rob, some sealed some classic albums, a few to fill holes and some to generally check out, very nice! I've got about 50 to show at some point, they soon mount up when they are so cheap, I'm planning on to try and completing a few discographies on CD this year, all the best mate

[@robwalkerletthemusicplay]

@@vinyldale hi Simon , as you say CDs quickly build up at these prices .. this is the first time I’ve done a solely cd video .. hopefully people will be interested.. thanks for watching have a great weekend Simon 👍

[@LloydBoonworldofmusic2]

Hi Rob, looks like christmas came a couple of weeks late mate. incredible pick ups there mate. "tattoo you" is my favorite Stones album, "sweetheart of the rodeo" is my favorite Byrds album Lana Del Rey, i own all of her albums (some on cd and some on vinyl) shes a great artist but i have never even considered what my fav of hers is, maybe i should. Gorillaz, i love them. "shot of love", not Dylan's best but still pretty decent IMO "Sixto Rodriguez, made two studio albums: "cold fact" and "coming from reality", both are very good. he was only ever popular in south Africa and Australia back in the day. i was glad that "searching for sugarman" gave him some traction worldwide. it is an interesting documentary, worth watching if you get the chance (i believe it may still be on Netflix) so many other great albums and artists shown also, great stuff mate, Lynne and I will be going to a flea market Sunday, hoping to find some interesting cds and vinyl - Lloyd

[@robwalkerletthemusicplay]

Hi Lloyd. , I’m a fan of Lana del rey .. she has a bit of star quality. Not sure how long it’s going to take for me to appreciate sweetheart of the rodeo.. let’s call it a work in progress😀.. it will be good to see what you picked up from the flea market .. have a great weekend Lloyd 👍

[@stevecarlsonvinylcommunity9147]

Well that is kind of crazy, well done, a lot of music for not much money, why not !

Hi Steve I recently watched your video where you picked up some classic og blues .. your face said it all Great finds Thanks for watching 👍

[@TheFixos]

Fantastic finds. I'm starting to look after used CD's myself. They are quite cheap in thrift stores where I live in Denmark as well. Not that cheap though and not music in that quality but still.. Congrats on your finds Rob🎉

[@robwalkerletthemusicplay]

Hi , I think most people now have an eye on used CDs .. even at £1 each they represent great value.. thanks for watching and commenting have a great weekend 👍

[@retromusings]

So many great cds there as you say for crazy bargain prices. Some wonderful winter weekend listening there. 😊

[@robwalkerletthemusicplay]

Hi , some nice discoveries and a few I’m more familiar with = value for money 😀 thanks for watching 👍

[@NicholasPayne-uq2rt]

Sweetheart Of The Rodeo opened up a whole new world to me. I knew The Christian Life from the Move's BBC Sessions. It is also bookended by two Bob Dylan covers. Gram Parsons became famous through this album. He went on to form The Flying Burrito Brothers with Byrds bass player Chris Hillman. Amongst their number was Bernie Leadon who went on to form Eagles. Another album I would recommend is the latter's Desperado.

[@robwalkerletthemusicplay]

Hi Nicholas, I think sweetheart of the rodeo will take some time for me to acclimatise too , though today a couple of tracks I enjoyed.. it’s a work in progress 😀. Thanks for watching and commenting 👍

Good picks there Rob and a bargain overall. Safe as Milk is the only Beefheart album I've heard that I like. I actually think CD is the way to go for Blade Runner soundtrack as there are so many very quiet passages. I agree that Lana Del Rey's vinyl seems to be pricey. Not long until I'll be on the 2025 hunt for bargains at boot sales...cheers Dale

Hi dale I’m off out to the car boot this morning I know I’ll find something. Let the season begin 😀. Thanks for watching 👍

I always browse the CD racks at charity shops - never know what you’ll find - but at the bargain prices it’s worth your time - don’t see Captain Beefheart that often ! Great finds , agree John Martyn is a great artist, got loads of his stuff on CD and Vinyl - great finds and proper bargains! 👍🫡🇬🇧

Hi gav , at these prices I can’t refuse CDs .. really enjoyed those captain beefheart albums thanks for watching 👍

[@carltweed942]

Hi Rob. Good to see your first CD-only video. I picked up 16 CDs for £8 today in one charity shop. Best of your finds for me are John Martyn, Captain Beefheart, Rolling Stones (great album! I paid good money for this 2-CD version), Beach Boys, Rodriguez (not too keen on the documentary), Buzzcocks (faultless comp!), Gorillaz (cool booklet), Vangelis, Big Star (one of my absolute favourite bands; I remember you showing an Alex Chilton record before), Doves, Gang Of Four (yes, formed at Leeds Uni), Chemical Brothers (£14! When £14 was a lot of money), Bob Dylan, Lana Del Rey, Teenage Fanclub (a 90s classic!), Byrds (another stone-cold classic; Gram Parsons can do no wrong for me), Eels, Style Council, Suzanne Vega, Ian Brown, Verve, Jesus And Mary Chain, Jean Michel Jarre, and Chicago Transit Authority. Not bad for a fiver.

[@robwalkerletthemusicplay]

Hi Carl , yeah my first ever video showing solely CDs .. I’m interested to see what interest it gets .. I’ve recently bought 3 new CDs on offer for £ 6,99 in the hmv sale all 3.are 2024 releases .. thanks for commenting have a great weekend Carl 👍

[@davidbrown5646]

I wish I could find CDs at those prices. The city I live in is perceived as well of and ad a result, the charity shops charge a minimum of £1.50 each.

Hi Rob, what a haul! I know CDs are cheap but that is ridiculous! Once you get new storage tou'll be buying even more, trust me, I've been filling a lot of holes lately.

Something to Tell You would probably be their weakest although it has the best cover.

Hi Catherine, right place right time 😀. Thanks for watching 👍

[@sjbang5764]

Back in the day, we didn't consider Unconditionally Guaranteed and Bluejeans & Moonbeams as albums made by The Magic Band but rather The Tragic Band, as those albums were miserable. Actually, they were sad. Fortunately, Mr. Van Vliet found his mind again and ended his music career with three great albums. Of course, all of this is only an opinion. Good day, and remember, "a squid eating dough in a polyethylene bag is fast 'n bulbous, got me?"

[@DallasOpenMicr]

Sweetheart of the Rodeo doesn't sound country enough for me to give it a full, fair listen. I'm prejudiced. I hear city slickers from the West Coast who found a bag of weed and decided to pretend to be cowboys. The whole situation just sounds like a bad vinyl tag prompt. I will buy the album if: 1.) I see a clean used record at a steal of a price. 2.) I come across a CD copy for under $2. (I will not stream the album.) Cheers, Jacob
