Records Collecting Dust - a documentary film about the music and records that changed us

[@mr.mirchenstein6549]

Nothing quite like the feeling of spotting a crate full of records and the anticipation of flipping through them 1 by 1...And the excitement you feel when you spot a record you have been searching for. It's like the feeling you get when you're a little kid on Christmas morning. 🙌🎶🎁🕵️

[@jasonblackmore4627]

The Best!

[@mr.mirchenstein6549]

@Cruz Jude WTF?? Why you telling random strangers about you being a creep?

[@johnunderwood3132]

That is the best feeling. Looking through the crate. I friggin love vinyl

[@ShowNoMercy6666]

I'm 20 and My first vinyl purchase was 3 records when I was 16 Nirvana - Nevermind Metallica - ride The lightning Metallica - the black album I now own a bit over 100 lps now

[@timmackenzie8145]

I had a lot of the records mentioned here over the course of my musical journey but the one I had before all the others? The Thrilling Chilling Sounds Of The Haunted House 👍😎

[@johnr1348]

I used to check that haunted house record out from the public library!!!

[@mattkaustickomments]

Cool movie. Had to fwd thru some live scenes though. Now I have some records to look up.

[@erestube]

Haven't had a record player since the 80s, but I still buy albums to decorate my walls. First record? The Beatles Yellow Submarine / Elenor Rigby 45 single when the movie Yellow Submarine first came out (I was about 8). Still have it on my wall! First album? The Beatles 1962-1966 when it first came out (I was about 11). My dad bought me my own stereo for my room just so he wouldn't have to listen to The Beatles all the time on his console!

[@Amp497]

This is a really cool video. I was born in 1960. So, I had a very interesting sociological view of the music scene through the 60s and into the 70s. The problem was always to try to find a decent record because I couldn't waste small resources that I had to buy records. Luckily, I ran into a guy at my high school who was really into Frank Zappa, Captain Beefheart, and of all people Todd Rundgren. I remember spending many an afternoon at his home sitting in front of his colossal stereo system with its massive wall of sound listening to the most ridiculously amazing music. I remember one Todd Rundgren tune that was particularly amusing for me. The lyrics went something like: " Why don't you love me? Is it my name?". I wondered how many girls didn't love me just because of MY name. Classic.

[@inherentmirth5180]

First records I got from my dad were Queen's Jazz and the Thrilling Chilling Sounds of the Haunted House.

[@BandGeekRecords]

Great documentary! Love hearing others people's stories and their connections to the music. Even though each one's individual tale is different, we all have that same excitement and emotional response. Thank you for making this!

[@SaintMartins]

My first album was "K-Tel Records Rock '81" (1981) Best Rock songs released in 1981 Rush "limelight", Heart "straight on", XTC "life begins at the hop", Blondie "the tide is high", The Boomtown Rats "i don't like mondays"......etc.....

[@russyJ20]

My first LP was Therapy? Nurse. Brought at Leeds festival, 2003. Didn't own a record player until 15 years later when I finally got to spin it.

Love the doc. Very interesting. A great deal of info I never new about music. Not a punk or alt type of guy but loved the film. Peace love and rock and roll ✌️

[@jasonblackmore4627]

Glad you liked the film. Thanks for checking it out! Part II is on Amazon and Tubi if you are interested. Cheers!

[@darlenegoodwin6467]

I would not hang around the salt-and-pepper female who doesn't like records. I saw LL COOL J on SOUL TRAIN one Saturday and later my youngest sister and I went to MUSIC STOP to buy his first album and I became a fan of his ever since.

[@nikolic-sq5rx]

[@AB_Deck]

[@lionheartroar3104]

How about a feature on pop and soul record collectors?

[@nickfreshalive]

i’ll be waiting

[@1FeistyKitty]

i teared up on the story about grandpa taking him to the record store 37:49

[@SpitRecords]

I'm a vinyl junkie & that was great 👌

[@coolmickey68]

watched this many times, one thing though, why have a woman, who is not a record collector in this doc. ? is she too cool not to collect records? with that said, I love this doc.

[@jeffsimon9594]

35m there we go, finally someone brave enough to express something other than the standard predictable punk rock party line

[@jcw91371]

Fun doc!

[@jasonblackmore4627]

Thanks! Glad ya enjoyed it. Part II is on Amazon and Tubi. If you are interested. Cheers!

[@DavidVega-wi5pr]

First album was Metallica ride the lightning i was 8 and i had no way to play it 😂😅.

[@kensims4086]

The three o'clock!! We need to hang out sometime and play 45s!!

[@markusdaxamouli5196]

Im a glass is half full guy. If Records are Collecting Dust...thats one less Hipster who is Destroying the EP/LP face by trying to Scratch reverse/forward on Albums that deserve pristine almost Museum like Preservation. Every single amd LP i ever got in the early 70s-80s-and 90s all got the same Honorable treatment... I collected my Newspaper Delivery money, my thousands of Lawn mowed and Lifeguarding shifts to buy my favorite Album at about one a week. I meticulously cleaned the area..used a razor to cut the shrink wrap..used cloth gloves like i was handeling Plutonium, cleaned needles and used my stereo to record every album on audio cassette... Then I reshrink wrapped and nneatly boxed and store the albums so i could listen to the cassete, with my 1970s huge earphones while gazing at the album art and transported to wherever the art and music took me. I did this for decades, and almost never had to reopen any in my collection. I tried for either never opening(as sometimes i bought two..one tos store and collect and one to use)..but i can count on one hand those Albums I put the needle to more than once...and they were ALL DISNEY records(donald duck, davy crocket, sing-along-LP with story books)

[@jasonblackmore4627]

Ha! Awesome. I did the same thing. Save up all my lawn mowing money and whatnot and my Mom would drive me to the record store. Bring the record home, staring at the cover while gently putting side A on. Recorded a majority of them to cassette and put the vinyl away for safe keeping. When people see my "punk" records a lot of them say "Dude! Did you ever play these!" Ha Ha!

[@stevegilmore2093]

What a waste… you do realize records sound much better than records recorded into tape, right?

[@frankcantelmi245]

Great doco

Starts off decent but gets pretty boring after 30 minutes. I believe Tubi has this and part 2 which is kinda redundant.

nothing like watching people who love records so much they are in a documentary about them and see them handle them like a football.. grabbing them all over with their hands and fingers... ugggg .. just awful to watch.. couldn't take it anymore and stopped watching

[@alec4672]

This is literally an hour of people just taking about there favorite albums and songs. How is this a documentary about records exactly?

[@bandname]

'records that changed us' It's in the title.

[@xxcelr8rs]

AM radio, to FM to harder FM to Album Hippie FM radio. Cassette tape on pause waiting for good song on the radio to record. Then all commercial radio stations bought up by 2 companies. Bean counter accountants used "least objectionable principal" so people wouldn't change stations. . Generic drivel with no soul. At least people in what is left of the music people are the people there for the right reasons. Rap was way to wash drug money. Still is.

[@mymixture965]

Sorry but all this record/vinyl documentaries are the same. Some guys talking about there records, talking about ancient times. Why does nobody has a different idea about making a film about records? This is boring, there are so many things you can bring to the table, are these film makers not more creative? Just talking about records, everybodys interview cut into pieces and thats enough? Not for me, thumbs down, I just waisted my time and not my money....so no damage done.

[@jasonblackmore4627]

Where can I watch your film?

[@alanzweig5766]

they're not all the same. Try "Vinyl". it's on youtube somewhere.

[@alanzweig5766]

Not to say you'll like Vinyl any better. But it's nothing like these. and it was the first.

[@mymixture965]

@@alanzweig5766 Hi Alan, I saw yours and in the beginning I did not know what to think about it. But I watched it about 5 times so far and now I can say I really like it. It makes me think about myself, what I am doing and that is a great thing, that is something I am looking for in a movie. I was into collecting tobacco pipes and I had one of the top collections in the world, but finally I quit smoking and sold everything, just to tell you I know what collecting is about and what it can do with you. My walls in my apartment where yellow:-) Now with records I don't want to do this again and movies like yours help me, it makes me look in the mirror. I have a wife and a house and a nice record collection, but nothing crazy. I am a professional musician all my live and so collecting music comes easy. Thank you for your movie, you did a great job and I will watch it again during the holidays. Merry Christmas and a happy new year.

[@alanzweig5766]

@@jasonblackmore4627 I saw the trailer for your Coachella record store dig documentary and it looked great. I always check out these vinyl docs because I made one and I'm making another one. And usually I don't think they're that great but yours looks like something much better. Congrats. If you ever have a link, I'd love to see it.
