SHAMEFUL! Ten Excellent Albums I Don't Have On Vinyl Records (Vinyl Community)

I'm so ashamed of not having these albums that I love on vinyl. There are various reasons why, but really there's just no excuse!

[@davidalejandrotabachnik1780]

Very brave and candid from you about these albums you do not have on vinyl. Not something to be ashamed whatsoever, I agree, there's nothing you "should" have but there's the albums you want to have. For me, all physical media is ok, not only vinyl but CDs and cassettes as well. Streaming is also ok for its convenience and easy access, although neither every song nor every pressing/version is available, but on the other hand the sheer amount of songs that's available is amazing if you think what we had in the '90s and early 2000s, before streaming was a thing. Thanks for another entertaining video!

[@roygoad2870]

I’am on a quest to get the vinyl community’s attention on the English progressive band Family, who I saw back in the late 60’s70’s. I’ve recently realised that there music is worthy of some love and respect, as they were an excellent band that never got much traction in the U.S!

[@ianz9916]

In 1982, when I was 21, I was babysitting for a friend. He worked for Phonogram and had The Who box set Phases which was made in West Germany which he got from work. It includes all the classic Who albums, My Generation, A Quick One, Who Sell Out, Tommy, Live At Leeds, Who's Next, Quadrophenia, The Who By Numbers and Who Are You. He wasn't into The Who and he gave it to me. It is cut quite low but is clean and crisp, and it was free. I've just stuck Who's Next onto the turntable.

Love the on location vibe!!!we must all touch grass at least once a day

[@bloqk16]

I'm impressed with Robert knowing his stuff with records and pressings. I worked in records retailing in (US) the 1970s, and when Robert mentioned about "Band of the Run" Capitol pressings having some shortcomings, I recall very well how the Classical music fans cringed at the low quality LP pressings on the "Angel" label, which was the EMI/Capitol branch label for Classical music. So, the claims of shortcomings with the LP pressings from Capitol in the 1970s is a valid one.

[@tdunph4250]

👍👍well done Robert! I have Parallel Lines. Original Heart of Glass but the album Is all beat up unfortunately. Keep up the excellent vids. PS: I enjoyed the "Balloon" reference...

[@staggerlee6794]

Dude, I didn't know about the Monarch pressing of Exile. Now I want it!! Damn you, brother!!

[@malcolmharing3744]

The Cars debut is among the best debut albums in rock music history, but glad to see you acknowledge it! Also, in my opinion the first Wings album,Wildlife, is the best they did. Band on the Run is a close runner up.

[@garyc39]

Boston is good so is The Doors debut albums.

I live not too far from the gravesite of Benjamin Orr. He's buried in thompson ohio of all places. Middle of nowhere.

[@mrdjproductions3070]

I recently found your channel as well. Love watching your videos. Still laughing at the Falco one where you go off about the version with all of the dates in it.

[@TooSkinnyKenny]

it never occurred to me to get rid of my vinyl records when I got the same titles on CD because vinyl records have a visual appeal that CDs don't have.

[@bloqk16]

It's good to hold onto the original releases on vinyl, as I've experienced some disappointing remixes that were done on CDs. Example: Allman Brothers "Blue Skies." The original vinyl had the lead guitar prominently front-and-center doing its solo. The CD version of the same song, the lead guitar is now sharing the spotlight with the rhythm guitar; where the rhythm guitar is now diluting the prominence of the lead guitar solo.

[@RUfromthe40s]

i have lot´s of vynil but because of their superior sound compared to their cd version this if analogue instruments are played like guitars or voice , also have thousands of cds but a cd with guitars with efects on it only sound as they should if in vynil ,in digital sounds really bad ,i have one Supertramp album , the chrime of the century but the cover is already very old allthough the record is perfect, one day i bought the cd and when playing it , thought to myself what the hell is this, Horrible not even close to the original ,such a shame no wonder kids today don´t like old bands they only heard bad recorded copies of what really were those albums

[@RUfromthe40s]

or people just stoped hearing guitars

[@bloqk16]

@@RUfromthe40s Ah! So you also noticed that about guitars with CDs. Years ago I bought an Allman Brothers CD of their greatest hits, looking forward to hearing "Blue Sky" with the guitar solo. Much to my disappointment, the rhythm guitar was crowding into the sound of the lead guitar play by Dickey Betts when he was playing lead.

[@RUfromthe40s]

@@bloqk16 it happened to me when thinking that cds would be an improvement and bought several from my favorite LP´s i had in Vinyl but , surprise they are there since 1993 and don´t know what to do with them ,they sound so bad and i also have Allman brothers Lp´s and others from late 60´s to early 70´s , normally the covers start to be in bad shape but the records always took care of them and still sound almost as new , maybe it helped having almost no humidity in the air. there are a lot of records that in cd one can´t listen to the guitars , they are there but with a weak and low volume sound, regards

[@bloqk16]

It's marvelous that Robert Fithen brought up the aspect about trading-in vinyl for CDs earlier in life. A friend of mine did just that when The Rolling Stones was first released on CDs, as he was financially struggling at the time. While he marveled at the clarity of the sound, there was something 'lacking,' too; so he went back to the used record store and, though it meant going into debt, bought-back the 'Stones vinyl LPs.

[@bloqk16]

Robert lamenting about not having a particular Allman Brothers vinyl LP reminds me of the flood of Allman Brothers albums in the bargain bins [cut-outs] racks at Tower retailers in the late 1970s ~ early '80; as their record label, Capricorn Records, went out of business. With that, record distributors had inventory they had to unload, with retailers, such as Tower, selling those records for $1.99 ~ $2.99 (US), even for the double-albums.

[@retromusings]

Wonderful video ....LOL with 'Lesley Gore' lps being beat up. Haha.

[@Mick_Ts_Chick]

Wow, I never dreamed I'd have a record you don't have, and much less 2. I have Blondie and The Cars. I don't know which version of Heart of Glass I have, but I'll definitely check now just out of curiosity. Don't cry Robert, you'll get them someday, even if you're old like me...

[@theoriginalheartstrummer]

Exile on Mainstreet was the very album that made me decide to get a record player about 11 years ago. I just woke up one day and said "I haven't actually heard exile as it is meant to be, with songs grouped in sides not just one long playlist". By the end of the day I had a turntable, amp, speakers, and 4 or 5 other of my favourites on vinyl too, such as the first big star, sweet baby james, and for the roses. Been hooked ever since, but thankfully kept most of my cds too.

[@RobertFithen]

Awesome!

[@78rpmblog]

No need to be ashamed even if you are right, you ought to have them, but then it's fine to have gaps in the collection to be filled, because when all the gaps are filled, then where do you go? Great video!

[@RobertFithen]

Thanks!!

[@marclahn7072]

Heh! When you switched to outdoors, next to that big "tree" for THE WHO, I thought we were about to see a reenactment of the "Who's Next" album cover (supplant tree for monolith) Okay, first off, I think it's only responsible to let you know that the 1996 MCA 180g "Who's Next" is, IMO, the best pressing. I get in-between the speaks with that one, and it's impossible for me to leave my Maxell chair (i.e. black leather recliner) until it's over! A sublime, yet powerful pressing. As for DAVID BOWIE, well, that's my all time, life-long favorite artist, so I'm sure I'd have an extra STS for you. That said, I bought it with my allowance brand new in early '76 when I was just about 10, so the *black and white* cover is the one that seems right for me. And hey, when you think about it, taking the overt use of cocaine into account, the more white the better, right? I mean, as far as exuding the true essence of that iconic, great album. The title track especially is a "white" song. The color LP jacket (although nice for sure) just doesn't fit. But again, I'm coming from a place of loving Bowie all the way back then, as it was happening. I have to speak from that honest, connected vantage point. - I almost bought that 1991 UK import LP of "Station To Station" back then (Ryko US stopped after "David Live at The Tower, Philadelphia" while the UK kept 'er going through "LOW,", I think it was - I just have all the RYKO US "sealed in a perforated clear bag" vinyl from '69-'74), plus promo posters, through to Heroes. Obviously have the original RCA LPs! Gotta have that original back cover art, the "MainMan" logo and most definitely the *US 1972 album covers* for "Space Oddity" and "The Man Who Sold The World" Those two Ziggy era covers embody those two albums soooooo much better than their "original Mercury counterparts" Anyway, I've got most of the other great albums you mentioned on vinyl (though I still, and always will, go to bat for well mastered CDs) I love both. And I know I have an extra "Candy-O" on vinyl, but not sure about the debut. Might have a second one of those debuts with the ol' hype sticker in tow. I need to check. *Oh, and before I go...right on about the original LP version of "Heart of Glass" 🥂 Marc ⚡

[@RobertFithen]

Thanks for the info. I couldn't show a reenactment of "Who's Next". ' Just like the album cover, I only showed afterwards. Lol

[@marclahn7072]

@@RobertFithen Haha. Yeah, I don't think a reenactment would've been good, esp for the more impressionable KZbinrs out there. It was great that you decided to go outside to that tree, just then, and only while talking about Who's Next. Haha The humor was there and the imagery just popped in.

[@lynncampbell962]

The fact that you have all the other Sabbath albums on vinyl makes me respect you more than if you just had Paranoid.

[@josephmoffett8771]

Love how Levon Helm chose to work on an oil rig in the Gulf of Mexico instead of continuing to tour with Bob Dylon.

[@capt.animosiac5093]

My sister had Blondie's Parallel Lines on vinyl. Unfortunately, I believe she exchanged or pawned it years ago. She did admit it was one of her very first records she bought at the time it came out.

[@albundy666]

I lucked into finding a UK Parallel Lines with the original album version of Heart of Glass on it at some hole in the wall record and book store. And I'm in Canada so it was doubly lucky!

[@jobeonetwothree2126]

Damn Robert, the only one I don't have on cd is "I'm Stranded" Agree with you on your assessment on "Pet Sounds" and thanks for the head's up on the Santa Maria and Monarch pressings.

[@craigsandry6737]

Good to see the Saints getting some love 😎👍🇦🇺

[@JWD1992]

We all have these lists. There are many essential rock albums I don't have because I never find clean enough copies. And yes, many Discogs sellers goof on getting the exact pressing right. I, on the other hand, obsess over it. (Gotta find the "P" for Columbia Pitman in those runouts, even if all Columbia plants used identical labels!) I did once get a clean Zep II RL for the price of a standard pressing on there, so I can't whine too much! You are right to wait on an Australian pressing of "(I'm) Stranded," by the way. I have a clean US original - it sounds dreadful. Muddy, muddy, muddy (and not in a charming "punk" way). And I LOVE that album, too.

[@clint5536]

Man! I am so glad I subscribed to Robert's collection of album appraisals and such. He really knows what he's talking about and I very often burst out laughing at his humorous way of presentation. Robert, you could very well be a stand up comedian!

[@RobertFithen]

lol thanks!!

[@RekkidTalk]

For those of us that aren't wealthy, it's often a choice between buying a classic album on vinyl that you have on CD or buying a record you don't have at all. I only have The White Album on CD.

[@Mick_Ts_Chick]

Me too! And the Beatles are my favorite group. 😢

[@gypsyfreek]

Watched this earlier today. Later I went to my local haunt, Dutch vinyl here in Brisbane Australia and saw an Electra pressing of the cars and snatched it up. The quality is amazing.

[@malcolmharing3744]

You are right about Station to Station, in my opinion it doesn't have any filler material. David had a knack for songcraft. I was pleased when I learned my son had listened to it recently. He's attempting to listen to an album a day. Naturally , I am trying to keep up with him , and I'm always sending him links to checkout , especially the music I grew up with. Like your topics btw! I'm a new subscriber. Best wishes.

[@RobertFithen]

Thanks!!

[@stereo999]

Had no idea about the Blondie (turns out mine's a disco version). I've always sworn by the Decca label original US press of Who's Next, but I found a MCA cloud label copy for cheap a while ago and it was better quality than I expected

[@jroc2427]

1971 Decca Label Los Angeles Pressing has been generally excepted as the best sounding American pressing. I have this myself along with the MCA from the same time. And I can definitely say the Decca far superior. Got VG++ for $25 from local store.

[@edrodrigues5623]

I'm with you on the Blondie, I have bootlegs and about 5 other records, even The Best of Blondie on vinyl but no Parallel Lines!! I' find it in the wild at a local store or yard sale. Same with The Saints.. Enjoying the videos Robert..

[@pbthal]

Who's Next the US Decca W-1 or W-1x or W-2 or W3 sound great look for 7-12888 7-12889 etched, these are plentiful

Thank you!! It's settled then.

[@jimmyhook4824]

Don't feel bad - things slip through the cracks sometimes. I fancy myself as a classic rock aficionado, and yet I never heard Piper at the Gates of Dawn until I was 45 years old! How the hell did I miss that one??

[@R3TR0R4V3]

I feel ya man, I'm still missing quite a few landmark albums too. You're really missing out on that Cars mofi though.. They sound incredible and they're cheap! Only paid $30 for mine bout a year ago. Good luck with those vertigo Sabbath records.. Wish I had em too, but I ended up settling for the next best thing, OG green label Warner Bros pressings. The Who, I'd just get the new half speed master.. It sounds great. The 3LP version with bonus & live tracks is the one to get IMHO. As far as stuff I'm missing that I should have, I don't even know where to start! Lol. There's a bunch! 😜

If you still need Paranoid on vinyl, the 50th anniversary red and black splatter is a pretty worthy specimen when the Vertigo is not an option. Having each of the 50th releases for those would be a worthy way of owning the physical music

I was about to buy Bob Dylan the times they are a changin first pressing, and had the seller email me some pics, and sure enough it wasn't the right label, it had the 360 Sound label from '65, and I told him and its still listed with the first pressings. BTW, I always see Band on the run half-speed master! I know where one is right now sitting in a crate in an antique mall

[@RUfromthe40s]

some years ago i sold a lot of records for a lot of money a guy which is a musician ,went to my house because other menbers on his band knew me and told him ,"that guy has a incredible record colection" ,one day maybe in 2008 ,he went to my house and started to ofer me a fortune for each record. He used to ask me ,"Is this the first edition? " i would reply that all the records there were bought when released ,mainly because i had to go to London had my sister living there and still is.

[@honiideslysses12]

I'm 6/10 on your list! lol. Most of them are most likely second or third pressings except Brothers and Sisters which I "borrowed" from my dad's collection. I was lucky to find an original copy of Station to Station at my local used record store owned by a hippie-dippie couple back when I was in high school for 10. I've recently discovered through a box of my dad's old albums was Getz/Gilberto; the one with "The Girl From Impanema". I betcha he only played it once back in college and it was never even removed from the sleeve since then! Happy hunting!!!

Ah! Barry Manilow's Greatest Hits on vinyl, with the notch cut on the jacket, probably a promo release on Arista, as I have one, too, which I got when working at Tower in the late 1970s.

[@xselectronics1618]

An Australian friend of mine (who lives in Brisbane and is a friend of Ed Kuepper) told me that the Aus pressing of '(I'm) Stranded' was mastered from a copy of the UK vinyl album. Sounds like a bizarre thing to do to me, but his source of info is pretty solid.

The Bowie album Parlophone reissues are very good. I just got Station to Statiin last week for $27 and it sounds great.
