It's always nice to step outside of your usual environment. I really enjoyed the scenery in this video.

[@metalmogul]

Beautiful scenery, Frank. Reminds me a bit of the Highlands of Scotland, but they are a wee bit smaller than the Rockies!

[@Channel33RPM]

Hi Andy. Jasper National Park is one my my favorite places to visit... summer is nice but fall is even better (the tourists have gone home and the skiers haven't arrived yet). I'd love to visit the Highlands... definitely on my list of places to go. Thanks for the comment. Frank

[@metalmogul]

Let me know when you are coming over and I'll stick the kettle on, then take you digging :)

[@NateBouchard]

Beautiful scenery. Looks like you and the family had a great time.

[@Channel33RPM]

Hi Nathan... Definitely. Visiting the Rockies always puts things in perspective for me. It's nice to slow down once in awhile. Thanks for tuning in! Frank

[@goldenvinylspin]

great video. I been to Jasper. I'll never forget seeing green water, and a herd of mountain goats blocking the road.

[@Channel33RPM]

Japser is my favorite place to visit, and luckily only a few hours away. A great place to recharge the batteries, especially in spring and fall (prices are crazy in summer). Cheers, Frank

[@VinylPotato]

Jasper looks like a beautiful town. Crazy how it's snowing there already. Nice haul Frank. Drive safely.

[@Channel33RPM]

It's definitely an awesome place to visit! The snow was melting when we left, but it sure caught me by surprise. It was more like slush on the ground which soaked through my sneakers. Oh well, live and learn. It's transition season, especially up at higher elevations.... Have a good one Will! Frank

[@nolifetilmetal1]

Beautiful scenery Frank. Love all that footage. I love that Triumph record. Good pick-up.

[@Channel33RPM]

Hi Scott. Thanks for tuning in man. I've been making my way through the epic vids you and Trog recently did. I'm going to spin the Triumph tonight... definitely an underrated band. Cheers, Frank

[@nolifetilmetal1]

Channel 33 RPM I saw Triumph at the Spectrum back in the early 80's with Mountain opening. Epic show with a killer laser show.

[@Channel33RPM]

Whoa... that's cool! I remember reading somewhere once that Triumph bought all the lasers, etc, that they used, figuring it was cheaper than renting the gear...

[@holspa]

Super nice video. Very nice place you visited with family. Thanks for showing all this Frank.

[@Channel33RPM]

Thanks Rene. It's the perfect place to reset the mind and get away from the city. Thanks for tuning in. \m/ Frank

[@CaptainHandlebar]

There's nothing like traveling with the family and adventuring to record shops!! I gotta make a trip up to Canada!

[@Channel33RPM]

It was a fun weekend getaway. Nothing like a trip out to the Rockies to reset the mind.... Fall is awesome up there because it's quiet (most tourists have gone home and it's not yet skiing season). I really didn't expect to find any records (or snow for that matter) but got both this time out, haha! Thanks for the comment! Frank

[@CoreysChannel]

Great video Frank, it's beautiful up there. Enjoyed seeing the local record shops.

[@Channel33RPM]

Thanks Corey. I always enjoy visiting, that's for sure, though the snow caught off guard this time, haha. Cheers, Frank

[@ejd715]

Awesome video Frank! Thanks for sharing part of your vacation with us. cheers!

[@Channel33RPM]

Thanks for watching! It was a fun weekend getaway. I've been catching up on your post-deployment vids. Some good stuff there. \m/ Frank

[@VinylRescue]

Nice vacation video! Small towns are the best get-a-ways. Good score on the Harlequin LP! Been a Triumph fan since the late 70s when I was in high school. I saw them in concert on my graduation night with Shooting Star as the opening act. Great concert!

[@Channel33RPM]

Love the Triumph story. Rick Emmet was/is such a smoking guitar player. Thanks for checking in! Frank

[@juliansj789]

That last record store looked awesome and promising! Amazing views too! Julz

[@Channel33RPM]

Hi Julz. There were a lot of records in that store - hit and miss but fun to look through. I had to dig quickly because I had my kids with me. I imagine I would have found more stuff, if I had more time. There's always next time... Cheers, Frank

[@DolynnyTV]

So awesome! I gotta go visit Jasper!

[@Channel33RPM]

Such a great place to visit! Frank

[@JefferyRusnock]

Hey Frank, Great video and well done as our tour guide throughout the Rockies enjoyed seeing everything including the Elk. Very cool looking record store , I always think that stores in basements of other stores seem to have the best stuff to browse through. Thanks for sharing your sightseeing excursion with everyone , that was very thoughtful of you and also pretty understanding of your wife. Take care and talk to you soon. ~. Jeff

[@Channel33RPM]

Hello Jeff! Yes, my wife Sheri is awesome! We were actually there for business... Sheri had some work to do, but I took an hour to myself on the first afternoon we arrived to go record hunting solo, which was much appreciated. The other two days she was working, and I got to hang out with my kids and see the sights. I also love basement shops, off the beaten paths joints, that kinda stuff... you never know what you'll find. Cheers man! Frank

[@FunkyMooseRecords]

A cool break from the Channel33rpm studio. Nice pickups.

[@Channel33RPM]

It was a quick and easy getaway. And I figured since I had my video cam with me anyway and an hour to myself .... might as well roll on some record pickups.... I honestly didn't expect to find anything but I was happy with these. I started listening to Harlequin on Spotify after I saw that record in your box, haha. Cheers, Frank

[@ClarenceFisher]

If I had a house like his, I'd never go out.

[@derekjtaylor]

Triumph! That's what's missing from my collection! Loved them back in high school.

[@Channel33RPM]

Hi Derek. I was missing them too.... They had some great tunes. I'm going to have to get some more Triumph records. Rik Emmet was/is a smoking guitar player! Thanks for tuning in. Frank

[@paulkane2391]

Hey Frank - I love your travelogue videos - and this one is great! The part of the planet is one of the most beautiful on Earth. It looks like you had a great trip with the gang! Everyone needs a little respite every now and then - quite a blessing it's so close to Edmonton. If there's vintage vinyl within a mile, FRANK can find it. Cheers!

[@danielyoung7175]

Frank, thanks for your channel. I know its a lot of work. I always watch all your vids all the way through, and learn a little.

[@Channel33RPM]

Thanks Daniel! I appreciate the comment. Thanks for watching! \m/ Frank

[@speedking4951]

Beautiful country there. I always love to run for some music shopping everytime i am on holiday! Cheers \m/

[@Channel33RPM]

I miss the Rockies ... we've now moved pretty far away, but it's still my favorite part of the country. Cheers Frank

[@speedking4951]

Channel 33 RPM i have a brother and sister who live in Canada. Hope to visit your beautiful country one day.

[@cameronzywina906]

As you probably know, Harlequin plays from time to time in Winnipeg. I have seen them a few times over the years. They put on a fun show. Is Lawsuit from Winnipeg too? I have never heard them before. Are they hard rock?

[@Channel33RPM]

Hi Cameron. Yes, indeed Lawsuit are a hard rock band from Winnipeg (circa mid 80s to early 90s). Fun music. The drummer went on to play with Vince Neil of Motley Crue and Slash. The guitar player, Brian Johnson, was a DJ on CITI FM for awhile. Cheers, Frank

[@slavikcc]

Last summer, myself and my friend had plans to visit Jasper but we didn't have the time as we went only as far as Banff and Lake Louise. Good to see that there are records out there in tourist towns like Jasper! I didn't buy very many records during our trip in BC and Alberta, just a few like Siouxie and the Banshees LP and a Killing Joke 10" MLP.

[@Channel33RPM]

Nice! Banff and Lake Louise are pretty awesome. If you ever have a chance to come back, take the Icefields Parkway from Banff to Jasper. It's definitely worth it. Did you check out Recordland in Calgary? Frank

[@slavikcc]

I'll keep that in mind! Unfortunately, we didn't have a chance to check out Calgary as we instead stayed at our friend's place at Lethbridge, where I got the Killing Joke 10" MLP at a local record shop.

[@CraigFozFoster]

Great video, Frank. Love those Triumph and Men at Work albums.. still need One False Move. One of these days I'll travel west and see Jasper and the mountains... furthest I've been is Sask... and it's certainly not the same ;)

[@Channel33RPM]

Hi Craig.... I love my Saskatchewan friends (and have been there many, many times), but yes... definitely not the same, haha. Both the Jasper and Banff National Parks are stunning. Definitely worth seeing at least once. Cheers, Frank

[@audiefied]

Nice score Frank. You got yourself some real good Canadian rockers in the Canadian Rockies!

[@Channel33RPM]

Rockin in the Rockies! Love it. Frank

[@highlighterdog1479]

I seen a pretty nice crack in your windshield, haha! Also, when you were flipping through the record bins, I seen a Larry Gatlin and The Gatlin brother's album. They're awesome!

[@Channel33RPM]

Haha, yeah... time to a new windshield. Sharp eye on the Gatlin Bros! Cheers Kyle. Frank

[@CraigVinyl]

Man - I would love to visit there!!! Happy to see some Aussie music with "Men at Work"

[@Channel33RPM]

Side note: tons of Aussies always seems to be working in Jasper.... I'm pretty sure there's a program which allows for young people to work for periods of time in Commonwealth countries, which is how they get there. It's kinda cool. The Men at Work appears to be an Australian pressing... the Canadian ones has yellow covers. It was a cool find. Thanks for tuning in. Cheers Craig. Frank

[@FatCityVinyl]

Looks beautiful Frank if a little cold! I've never been to Jasper yet, just Banff (similar close encounters with wildlife!). The kids want to hit the dinosaur museum at Drumheller so maybe we'll make it there one day. Never would have thought there'd be records & CD's there, good man getting some digging in while on holiday!

[@Channel33RPM]

Hi Doug, beautiful and cool (but nothing I can't handle, haha). It was 7 C the day we arrived, then freezing at night. Banff is awesome. I prefer Jasper just by a bit, and only because it's smaller and a tad less commercial. Both are fantastic destinations we love taking the kids to. Your family would love Drumheller. Drop me a note if you ever make it to the Edmonton area! And yes, always have my eyes open for records! Cheers, Frank

[@Channel33RPM]

There's also a shop that sells records in Banff.. a secondhand store hidden in the basement of a building... :) Frank

[@KevinKohlhase]

Nice area and a nice small score.

[@Channel33RPM]

Small score... but more than I expected. Thanks for the comment. Frank

[@KevinNeil87]

Frank, Jasper is great! Wife and I were there in July, it was A LOT busier. I'm pretty sure that was an elk!

[@Channel33RPM]

Hi Kevin. Indeed, it was an elk. They were all over the place... the males are aggressive this time of year. Fall is my favorite time to go to Jasper... No one there, and there's a bit of bite in the air. The town will be taken over by skiers in a couple of months... Cheers, Frank

[@mrjape71]

Nice scenery, Frank! A bit different that here in Finland. No snow yet so I'm good with that. Not the most amaZing record haul but at least you found something. Nice transitions, Jarkko / MyVinylBar

[@Channel33RPM]

Hello Jarkko! Yes, the snow was unexpected, but that's the mountains for ya! Back here at home, the ground is still green... for now. It usually snows in November. I agree, not an amazing haul, but ok... and still fun to get some time to dig. Cheers man! Frank

[@DJLEGION]

I love that TRIUMPH record.

[@Channel33RPM]

Definitely a good album. Thanks for the comment, Mr. Legion. \m/ Frank

[@ThisIsReadyMade]

Great video! I almost got that Triumph album yesterday.

[@Channel33RPM]

Thanks! I just gave mine a clean and plan to spin it tonight. Cheers, Frank

[@blakel2174]

Beautiful place to visit. Allied Forces is my favorite Triumph album, I've heard that elk is the best meat you can eat.

[@Channel33RPM]

Hi Blake. I've heard the same about elk meat. I used to know someone who raised elk not for the meat, but to harvest the antlers (they grow back). He would grind up the antlers and sell the powder to Asia... as an aphrodisiac, believe it or not. Frank

[@siyang2]

Love the Canadian rockies! Canada represent :D

[@CineBrosSupreme]

Frank! Man, sure is beautiful over there! I definitely plan on visiting Western Canada sometime in the near future. I've never been further than Ontario, and I can see that I'm missing out! Great finds here; I like that album by Men at Work, my dad had the cassette when I was growing up, so it's very nostalgic. Ah man, I really need some Harlequin in the ol' collection! Pops up fairly often so it should be easy to track down, haha! Never heard of Lawsuit, I'll check them out for sure. Awesome stuff as always Frank, have a great week! Cheers! -Jex

[@Channel33RPM]

Go west, you man, haha! Drop me a note if you ever end up in these parts, I can show you around! The Canadian Rockies are, by far, my favorite place. We try to go at least once a year. I've somehow found myself on a Harlequin kick. I need to track down their other albums now. They had some good stuff going on! Cheers dude! Frank

[@Channel33RPM]

I'll talk more about Lawsuit in an upcoming video. I had more here but I cut it out... I want to do these guys justice... Hard rock/metal from Winnipeg, circa 80s to early 90s. Lots of line up changes. One of the drummers, Brent Fitz, went on to play with Vince Neil's solo band as well as Slash's band. I emailed the guitar player/band leader Shaky last week and he still has some of the 80s records for sale on vinyl, which I hope to buy. Some samples: kzbin.info/www/bejne/Zp-bn2WfnJ1-l5o kzbin.info/www/bejne/i5bKZndvgd9nbNk

[@pancudowny]

No Genesis? Sacrilege! No, just-kidding... But it does remind me of my brother's tale of explaining the group's existence to the kids of the small-town Baptist church he attended. To which I replied: "Did you explain to them about the dogma of Abacab?" 😛

[@haukurvaldimarsson2057]

You always make my Sunday!

[@Channel33RPM]

That's awesome! Thank you, I appreciate the support, and glad to be a part of your Sunday! \m/ Frank

[@ClarenceFisher]

I had the Men at Work album, but it was either my bad record player or the record was defective, but it skipped like a mo-fo!

[@theTORTUGAZUL]

Was that a white background on the cover? I have the yellow background but I've never seen the white one. Maybe it's the Canadian pressing?

[@derrickmarr9502]

Totally forgot Harlequin even existed...my bad!! Lol

[@Channel33RPM]

Yes, great band! Thanks for checking out this video from the "back catalog." Frank

[@derrickmarr9502]

Since I just found your channel I have slowly been working my way through your older vids. Good information to be had!

[@Channel33RPM]

Thank you Derrick

[@dazz1566]

Breathtaking scenary. And snow? Wow! It hardly snows here now in the UK. But rains a lot. Global Warming. Anyway, if you're getting into Genesis - a heads up. Best album for me is Duke then Abacab then Selling England By The Pound. The three sides live album is an absoloute must have. The England one is Peter Gabriel era. As for Peter Gabriel. These two albums you MUST own. First is called SO. It has tracks like sledgehammer and Don't give up. The other is called "4" Also known as "Security" as Peter Gabriel first 4 albums were untitled and known only by the cover art. 4 has three devastating tracks which will blow you away listening on vinyl. San Jancinto, Lay your hands on me and the absolutely blitzkreig The rhythm of the heat. its earth shattering. The vid on youtube, as its mp3 encoded does not do it justice. It is phenomenal. Anyway, its 6am. Im gona shut up now. Stay Safe.

[@Channel33RPM]

Thanks Darren. Good tips here. It's been ages since I've heard So. I'm going to keep my eyes open for that one, and some of these other titles as well. The snow caught me off guard (all I had were soaked sneakers on my feet, haha). It was melting when we left, but I'm sure it will snow in the mountain communities again sooner rather than later. I mowed my lawn this weekend, hopefully for the last time in 2016. Cheers, Frank

[@dazz1566]

I would have been here in Great Yarmouth (Well Gorleston for the last year) 4 years tommorow. When i moved up here i moved from a warmer part of the country. So anyway, im here for about a week. And one night the weather was ACH DU LIEBER! An ice hail storm - and fo these old eyes - it was quite spectacular. If we get one this Autumn or winter - i will film it and put it on my channel page - it really is quite extraordinary.

[@henrys3629]

I thought MAW was a yellow cover?

[@Channel33RPM]

After I saw the comment, I realized you are absolutely right. Turns out this is the original Australian cover... so weird to find it in a small mountain town in Canada. Thanks for pointing this out. Frank

[@ClarenceFisher]

Was that an Elk, by chance? Never mind, your wife just answered my question when you told her about it.

[@StuartT1981]

Allied Forces is a good album,also like Thunder Seven by Triumph.

[@Channel33RPM]

Ah yeah! I haven't heard Thunder Seven in years... I'm going to have to find that one again. Thanks for tuning in! Frank

[@MegaMoviesDK]

Very good and well made video! ;D

[@Channel33RPM]

Thanks for tuning in! Frank

[@giggabyt78]

frank you live in a beautiful place looks like you had fun if you wanna get in to genesis ask me i have all there albums get a album just called genesis it's a fantastic album the best of you have is ok and we can't dance is a good album they are a grate live band too

[@Channel33RPM]

I live a few hours away from Jasper in Edmonton, which is more of a blue-collar prairie city, but it's nice to have the mountains close by.... I'll check out the self-titles Genesis. Thanks for the tip! Frank

[@mikedrz]

I'm from Toronto, and I could still tell you that wasn't a Moose, facepalm... lol

[@Channel33RPM]

I need to get out more :) Frank

[@mikedrz]

It's okay, because I didn't know that it was an Elk either. haha :)

[@ClarenceFisher]

Van Halen YES! Cyndi Lauper No Not really Eagles Aw, HELL TO THE NO!!!!!!!!
