A tip I always give: accept you can’t own everything and probably never will. Cherish what you own.

[@noblerecords]

Very good advice! Not to mention, if you owned everything that would take a lot of the fun out of it 🤣

[@12inchRules]

Noble Records Haha indeed. It’s a collection that can suck up a lot of cash, there is always the next record you need. My Discogs want list is still 1800 items long and growing. And I know there is some stuff on it I will never be able to purchase. But it’s ok, still keeping an eye out though 😁

[@keithvincenttucker9923]

I started collecting about 12-15 years ago, mostly by accident. I was at a garage sale and they had a box of records for $1 each. Normally I pass them by, because everyone I knew with records, was my dad's age, or older, and all their records were old country, classical, or Christmas music. Guys my age, mostly, started getting music on cassette. This box, however, had Alice Cooper right out front, so I started flipping through it. There were about 25 classic rock albums and about 25 of the ones I would have expected. I offered them $20 for the whole bunch. I kept the classic rock and gave the rest to my dad. After that, I kept picking up any that I could find for similar prices at garage sale. I didn't even have a turntable, but I kept telling myself I was going to get one. About a year later, I ran into the record snobs. I found a nice looking Pioneer in the local classifieds. Before I went out and bought it, I joined a record collecting forum, and asked if a Pioneer was a good turntable to start out with. I just got a bunch of replies telling me, "only if you don't care about your records". Then they started recommending turntables that started at $2500. I gave up getting a turntable for quite a while, but I kept collecting, any time I saw them cheap at garage sales. Last year, I finally picked up a vintage Denon, and I am finally listening to my records. I've finally started going to record shops and have picked up a few new reissues.

[@jakemcinturff7298]

Dude you are awesome. I started collecting like 3 years ago when I was 16, and the community I encountered when trying to get into the hobby, was one of the worst I had ever seen. Everybody looked down upon me, and I literally felt ashamed going into record shops since I was young, and the owners would treat me like I was dumb. I got through it and am relatively experience now, but it was tough trying to learn what to do when every other video was some old man saying you need to spend 8,000 to get a decent turntable and you have to clean your records with the tears of angels or you’ll ruin them. I love your attitude and videos, keep inspiring young collectors like me to get into record collecting

[@noblerecords]

Thanks man that means a lot! I know I’m still dumb in a lot of areas, it’s foolish for people to act like they know it all. It’s a lot more Fun to be nice. Thanks for watching!

[@joemartucci4786]

I care also. I lucked out though I have a wonderful beautiful wife that I can talk to about it she actually loves most of the stuff I do like even odd stuff like Return to Forever etc. She also shares my passion for a lot of 60s music like bubble gum music etc. She is confused though on why I have 6 different versions of Sgt.Peppers & Yesterday & Today lol. But when buying for me for Xmas etc she does go out of her way to find a colored vinyl copy of something I love. Love this channel

[@andreaneilcmc]

[@BrandonDKirkwood]

[@meth5738]

[@well_as_an_expert_id_say]

I think you'd have to buy a second for it to technically be a collection lol

[@garykuhlmann8149]

I think of collecting as organic, that is, my collection grows from the music I'm interested in. I don't buy records based on somebody's list or because of its reputation. And I don't buy records because they're rare or on a special colored vinyl and so on--I grew up when buying an album was just to have a copy of the music, and I feel that's what it should remain. I love the LP format, but at bottom, it's about the music--if that means, for example, that a new release that I love and must have is only available on CD, so be it. If that means buying an inexpensive LP reprint of, say, a coveted Blue Note release, so be it. I wouldn't have much of what I own if I held out for originals of everything I wanted to listen to. In some sense, life is too short to be too serious about collecting albums. Buy the music, enjoy the music!

[@sebastiencrusener4968]

You've said it all in the first line Sir, that's the only good way to collect records. Buy records that YOU like, don't let others (snobs and geaks)tell you what to buy, it's your journey. If you stick to that you'll eventually find your way: the right records, shops to get them, the good websites etc. Happy collecting Sir!

[@mikehuhman3249]

Hell yeah! You know it. May you live long and healthy and happy.😄

i started collecting records since 1975 and never stopped

[@mamabearvinyl]

This is one of the best videos I've seen for beginning collectors or even any collector really. Some amazing advice and no shaming. I've been collecting for a little bit and I definitely enjoy watching videos in the vinyl community to discover new/old albums. Great content, always stay humble and kind is advice that never goes out of style.

[@borond]

i bought a beatles record on a second-hand online clothing website for around seven dollars (so definitely not a professional find, since i have close to no knowledge about this field ^^), it arrived today, and since the moment i held the solid disk in my hands (strictly only the edges and the middle part dw) i've been captivated by how REAL music can be. as a 16yo who only ever listens to music on a computer/headphones, even just being able to HOLD music and imagine what it could sound like flabbergasted me honestly. once again i managed to find a really expensive hobby which i don't have the financial situation for, but this time it really seems like a journey that i'm willing to wait for its milestones. at last, you really are such a joy to listen to, i can feel the love for your records and the will to give as much advice as you can through the digital screen. thank you for giving me an amazing first impression of this community, sir!!

[@bobbipasternak5585]

I love your attitude and advice! I acquired my first 45s when I was a toddler, and I still have them. I vaguely remember my first record player. I stuck the 45 into a slot and it played. By the time I got my first LP (the soundtrack to "A Hard Day's Night"), I was about 10 and had a Decca suitcase record player. I bought my first component stereo system in 1977. My turntable, a Yamaha YP-211, is still in use. My best record store find was Dave. We met in 1980 and have been married since 1982. Thankfully, we used (and still use) the same record organization system. One of our friends said she knew we's last when we combined the record collections.

[@agitation-free]

In a earlier video you mentioned that you started out by listening to a list of 1000 essential albums. Based on that tip, I set a goal to listen to at least 1000 albums a year and a few hundred albums in, it has already totally changed my entire outlook on vinyl and music as a whole. Just listening to a lot of different stuff has been the most important step for me to get deeper into music and collecting :)

[@noblerecords]

Man! So glad to hear!

[@mrhoffame]

So one year now....how are you doing?

[@agitation-free]

@@mrhoffame made it to 1000 last year, a great personal achievement for me during the pandemic! 😄 it was mostly psych so I may do it again in the future and focus on a different genre I think it is a great exercise for people who love music but find themselves listening to the same stuff over and over. I wouldn't recommend 1000 in a year lightly though to someone who is where I was at the onset. It will make music a lifestyle and you have an endless vinyl waitlist at the end lol Through it I fell in love with some styles I had completely written off before and discovered music is truly endless. I also developed a feeling of kinship/connection with serious collectors and people in the VC like yourself and Dylan rather than just feeling like a jealous observer 😄✌

[@sandyfader4649]

“Stay humble “...... enough said my friend.

[@jungle-wav1322]

I’ve been collecting for 5 years, since I was 15. The only way to start a collection is to start. Buy whatever turntable you can afford (I’d recommend the at-lp 60), hook it up to whatever speakers you have or can afford and then buy your favourite album of all time to start. Go to thrift stores to buy records you would never know about. Eventually you’ll gain some experience and you’ll have a great time in the record store. As you go on you’ll upgrade audio equipment from your pre amps, amps, receivers, needles and turntables. Just have fun and buy what you like. I’d rather have 5 albums that I love than 1000 copies of herb Alpert and the Tijuana brass

[@BigRedSpear]

I love listening to records on a manual turntable because of how they force me to sit and actually listen to the music from beginning to end. I tend to put digital music on and have it in the background while I do other things.

[@sixfourrecords]

One thing I will add is be aware of the condition of the records you are buying. When I first started buying, I was clueless about how to interpret the condition of the vinyl itself. I also settled for a lot of really bad beater copies of records I didn't know I could easily find. Don't settle for poor condition records unless it's something really rare. I've got a lot of albums I wish I hadn't bought because they sound terrible but I didn't know what I was doing then.

[@Theomite]

I was lucky that the beaters I bought before I wised up were comedy albums that weren't worth much to begin with. By the time the expensive stuff showed up, I knew better.

[@cesarcamposmartinez]

[@jody8526937]

I started by buying a Bill Withers record.. Then I needed a turntable and an amplifier/receiver so I could listen to the records I purchased. It's really quite simple. Don't buy a book on collecting buy a book or magazine about artist you like. There is no such thing as records you should have or need in your collection. Buy what you like. It's your collection. If you are trying to impress your friends or guys in the dorm then ok, buy stuff "experts" recommend. If you are buying for investment reasons, I don't know what to tell you. But I will say after collecting more than 6,000+ lps and 1000's of 45 along with 3,000+ cd's and about 2,000 music video's, my layman recommendation is collect what YOU like. I realized a long time ago, I never met an "expert" when it comes to my collection. After all these years I still have people and friends with NO collection telling me what to listen to or what I need or must have in MY collection. (heck, I don't have enough time left in my life to re-listen to everything in my vast, awesome, collection, not to mention all the things i am still discovering on my own) You will grow into other genres as you get older (i hope) but i repeat, buy what you like and go from there. Ohh.. and ignore all the people who tell you how bad your taste are or what a waste of time and money your collection is. oohh... and many things you don't like if you come back to it after a while, you will find that your taste have matured or changed and now it's something your find appealing. Good luck..

Really good advice, especially about the best time being when you just have a few records. I always remember back to the time when I was about 9 and was given a cheap battery suitcase turntable and a few K.tel records.

That record was the start for me and to this day its the greatest treasure in my collection.

Help people that are new to the hobby. The more you get into it, the more pressings you’ll hear and realize what you do like.

Part of why I like record collecting is the history of the specific copy that o have. I got a really good deal on Queens night at the opera because the sleeve had a note to someone as a gift on the top corner, but the LP was in NM condition. Inside the jacket was a note from one person to another about their love and failed marriage. It is one the favourite record I own in part because of the history of the copy I have.

The thing about Vinyl collecting is everyone starts somewhere. Its important not to be a snob about it. Educate them on how to do things and help, don't hate or discourage anyone. I'm just starting out, and I'm loving it.

[@TheRecordSpinner]

For me I started collecting because of Jack White and his label Third Man. I always associated him with the vinyl format and initially I was going to get all of the Jack White related stuff on vinyl for the sake of having it. Then it turned into getting all of the KISS records (my favorite band) and then it just grew to be anything that I liked. Over time, I started getting different mixes, bootlegs, box sets and it grew from there. Now my main thing is absorbing myself in new music and newer artists since there are so many artists out there in the world. Great video Dillion, cheers and stay safe.

Great tips for beginners! I can't tell when I started cause since my dad had a nice stereo (Marantz Amp, Tape, Radio and Dual Turntable) I grew up with this. I had different turntables over the years of my youth. Most of them from the garbage or second hand stores cause back in late 80s /early 90s people here were on a CD trip and geot rid of their stuff. Here in germany we have special days you can put down you bulk trash beside the street. Back then it was allowed to also put down electronics. Great times to get all kind of stuff. Best turntable I found was Sansui. Can't remember the model. Visual condition wasn't that great but it worked perfecly fine. There are sometimes good deals for these old Sony, Pioneer, Sansui, Fisher (studio standard series), Dual turntables. Not all of them are good turntables but in my experience the bulky heavy ones with thick platters won't dissapoint.

Love the Video. I'm somewhat of a novice Vinyl collector. Just about to hit 600 Records after, maybe, 5-7 years collecting. Inherited 70s era Turntable, speakers and Pre amp from my Dad. The turntable is no more so I went to a Sherwood. Great brand. My 4 Old style speakers put out a killer sound. The old wood speakers with brown fabric front covers. Sunday afternoon's were made to be spent sitting down listening to your favourite Records.

I've been collecting since the mid 80's. I never thought I'd still be at it 35 years later. It's life blood. Most "snobs" in my experience are either posers or they're just genuinely miserable. * U-Turn Tables are made in Massachusetts and are fantastic quality for beginners and onward... Used reciever from the 80's/90's Some Klipsch bookshelfs = Heaven

I second the suggestion of U-Turn turntables! Have had mine for almost 5 years, has been used closed to daily and haven't had an issue yet. Great bang for your buck, not to mention has to be one of the best looking and sounding turntables for the price.
