The Collection Grows! New Vinyl Finds

This summer I added a few new records to my collection. Some that have been on my wish list for a long time. I was able to find some records at a decent price! Something I am doing this summer is adding records from some of my favorite bands that are older, and currently not popular. I am finding them at a good affordable price.

It's always nice to hear of different artists across the wide spectrum of musical taste.😎

[@MonieMuse]

oh good! These bands have been with me for so long I tend to forget they might be unknown to others.

[@robertquesada1136]

I love how Portland just came at the last minute at the end and stole the show😂😂. Great Job Portland 👍👍

she was waiting at the door for me to say "like and subscribe"

It’s always nice seeing your latest pick ups!

[@MonieMuse]

Thanks marie for watching.

[@dat1phoenix173]

WOW!! first time I have seen Crystal Castles in a collection! You are so COOL

[@MonieMuse]

really! there stuff is getting harder to find, glad i was able to get a copy.

[@dat1phoenix173]

@@MonieMuse I bet! I haven't stumbled across a copy yet

[@dougthePogingguitarist]

excellent video watching from Canada

[@MonieMuse]

thank you! This video had two Canadian bands! :)

[@davidellis5141]

Hi Monie 🌞 - I ❤️ Beach House & I just saw Smashing Pumpkins 🎃 with Interpol opening. Pretty good show & have some great memories associated with each band. New Slowdive on September 1st is my next purchase. Have an awesome Sunday & stay dry ! So much rain coming to So Cal.

[@MonieMuse]

How cool you got to see Smashing Pumpkins, they were in my area too and I tried to get a ticket but the lowest was $300! I cant believe how much concerts now cost. ok thanks for the heads up im going to look out for the slowdrive . Right now we are on a hurricane warnings haha. but its just been a little rain

[@MonieMuse]

Any tips on building your collection with the rising cost? We gotta have our records!!

[@richardwhite2344]

Enjoyed the video Monie!!!! Enjoy!!!

[@MonieMuse]

thank you, i love sharing :)

[@bigedhaaheo]

Aloha Monica, Another amazing video of your Summer purchases. I personally never heard of these bands, but I also didn't grow up with this type of music. I'll check some of these groups out on KZbin. Thanks for Another awesome video. Looking forward to watching your next video.

[@MonieMuse]

wow cant believe you havent heard of these bands lol you know everything!

[@ChrisPropfeMusicallyObsessed]

Great records! I have to do my musical homework because I don’t know a lot of the artists you showed. I guess I have to get out of the 70s and 80s. Lol!🤣

[@MonieMuse]

lol you are the 70 & 80 record specialist .

[@twofromthetrunk9932]

I love the way you interact with your music and the artists you love. 25 is usually my limit too. Like you I try to get the music of my youth. It can be pricey. So I have to be on guard when it comes up for a decent price. I understand that they are reissuing Conciones de mi Padre by Linda Ronstadt for 27.00. This is a preorder price. I’m hoping this is legit. I’m on the east coast so finding it in the wild here is tough. So we’ll see. As always enjoyed your video.

[@MonieMuse]

really, is the east cost harder to find records? im gonna look into that pre order of linda's Spanish album so glad their finally releasing it! thank you for watching tony !

[@josephpolaster2271]

👋Monie , glad to see you not giving up on vinyl. I reccomend buying only vinyl you will listen to. Stay away from FOMO if you can haha. I have hundreds of cds and listen to them all the time and still buy used ones from time to time. In the 90s I purged more than 2000 lps because I thought vinyl was dead. # F,me.😔 Since 2020 I've been collecting sealed old stock of mostly Elvis of course, and Linda Ronsdat plus others that I know I will listen to. But it is getting expensive now. In 20 I would pay 9 bucks now it's no less than 30 for the same so it's getting harder to get a deal for what I want. I'm sorry I missed out on your Ebay purge but I'll keep an eye out in the future. ❤ Your new artistic camera work.😎❤

[@MonieMuse]

hi Joseph good to hear from you, i haven't been able to find more older records because its so hard for me to get out of the house with three little ones, amazing you were able to let go of 2000 lps. Yeah im focusing on some of my favorites at the moment that i can find on line or local stores. i hope to get more of Elvis, i use to come across his music all the time. well if there is anything we know, prices rise and fall with records lol its just a "being there at the right moment" kinda deal.

[@josephpolaster2271]

@@MonieMuse So glad you guys are OK. Record collecting is back seat to raising 4 kids ( husband included) he he. Take care❤

[@stevecarlsonvinylcommunity9147]

At least I knew who Coldplay was. Okay I know Beach House but don’t know their music. Good job keeping at a budget. I really suck at that lol.

[@MonieMuse]

thank you! yeah i get a little record money here and there. i know you try! lol

[@briaredpath9386]

Choir boy,Thus love,Jessica Pratt are all awesome 😎 if you haven’t checked them out.

[@MonieMuse]

Thank you! I will 🥰

[@MonieMuse]

Wow these bands are really cool, I enjoyed their music videos. I think I just fall in love with Jessica Pratt music! Thus love & chior boy are the type of artist that’s rewarding to find

[@BadEnglishRecs]

Oh Coldplay! I feel now that I can't listen them because I'm still not over from that I didn't get ticket to their concert. 4 stadium concerts! And all sold out! :( mr. Finglish (Bäd English Recs)

[@MonieMuse]

This tour!? That is crazy. The last time I saw them they were in a little venue in LA, it was a special filming my husband was working on. It was the best ever. They do great shows, maybe next tour!!

[@BadEnglishRecs]

Yes @@MonieMuse this tour. This is their first time in Finland so...

[@marksantucci4230]

Are my ears working correctly did I hear you say that you want to share what records you have been listening to over the summer? what happened to pushing the kids in the stroller around town and listening to music over the summer? on your walkman when you think of the summer you think of getting out of the house the outdoors ? whether your having a cheese burger out at your local Merchant and having a beer outside on the patio or playing with the little ones on the trail or at the beach, the Park ? crystal castles from 2008 did you said? The Radio department , M83 at Barnes and Nobles how cool ? some questions after the middle one 2. in addition to listening to your new records have you also put on other albums like the Van Halen that you got from Walmart 3. did you put on any 80's bands like the Police , Cars, Elvis Costello ect some music that's been on my walkman from last summer which got cut short Ac/dc- Back in Black Ratt - Out of the cellar Joe Satriana - surfing with the Alien Def Leppard - Pyromania Rush - Moving pictures Kiss - self titled now back to the begining Ac/dc - Dirty Deeds Ac/dc - Let there be Rock Ac/dc - Ball breaker Judas Priest - Painkiller Judas Priest - Sad wings Judas Priest - Point of Entry Aerosmith - Toys in the attic Kiss - Dressed to kill Kiss - Love gun Scorpions greatest hits Queen's greatest hits Metallica - Ride the lightening Black Sabbath - Masters of reality Moody Blues - best of Styx - Greatest hits Iron Maiden self titled Motley Crue - shout at the devil pronounced - Lynyrd Skynyrd van Halen -1984 Today I had on Stevie Ray Vaughn's soul to soul live some albums that havebeen on my walkman this summer.

[@MonieMuse]

[@lindaleg3659]

Unfamiliar with M84. Listened to Wait. Love it. Your opinion, what is their best release. Thanks.

[@MonieMuse]

its so hard to pick so ill rank them 1. Saturday=youth 2. before the dawn heals us 3. hurry up, were dreaming 3. junk 4. fantasy 5. dead cities, red seas & lost ghost i haven't hear DSVII yet

[@lindaleg3659]

Thank you for this. Will def dive into this.

[@georgespencer3973]

That Crystal Castles video is AWSOME. I love stuff like that. Thank you for including the link. The footage reminded me somewhat of the Boards of Canada fan video for Everything You Do Is A Balloon…. which I just noticed it has almost 10M views. Had no idea it was that popular. kzbin.info/www/bejne/moKonpSgbqhpodE . I sure wish they’d make another record. Birds of My Neighborhood is my favorite Innocence Mission record. Probably because it was the first one I heard, but they really don’t have any bad ones. I’ll be checking out some of the others you mentioned that I’m not familiar with. Thank you for sharing.

[@MonieMuse]

isnt the music video weird, he used a public domain educational video about bullies. thanks for sharing your video, it topped my creepy video lol

[@georgespencer3973]

@@MonieMuse You can tell that lead girl in the bully video is a total pest. And the stuttering frames kill me. Too funny.
