THE VINYL FINDS OF 2024

[@YesterdaysTrips]

*DISCLAIMER* I realize that I refer to some of the gradings of the records as “VG+-“. I realize that this is not a proper grading for a record when following the Goldmine Standard. However this is how I was taught to grade at the record store I used to work at. When considering the grade “VG-“ it refers to a record that is between G+ and VG. Now establishing what my definition of VG+- is… it refers to a record that is between VG and VG+. Just thought I would clarify that to avoid any confusion. Again, I understand this is not proper but it’s what makes the most sense to me. Thank you all so much for the continued support and take care! 🙂✌🏻

Nice to see some Master pieces: T2 is my favorite

[@YesterdaysTrips]

T2 is absolutely killer! So glad I own a copy finally! Thanks for watching! ✌️🏻

Thank you so much for the kind words! Agree, we all need a record buddy :) I'm sure there will be many grailz in 2025! ✌☮

I liked that copy of Mudslide. I've got 12 different copies of the show from different labels and / or sources but unfortunately I don't have any vinyl copies. That's cool to have the TMOQ original pressing 👍 Over the last 4 years or so I've been trying to get the original boots on LP. I've always dealt with lossless audio files or CDs that were lossless. But there's something cool and original when you find it on an LP. Good luck and keep up the good work! Brian in Fort Worth 🎶

[@YesterdaysTrips]

And yeah finding them on LP is very difficult! Having them banned on discogs marketplace and also they get taken down from eBay sometimes as well. It’s always a struggle to track them down. I got very lucky fs and am definitely grateful. Thanks so much for watching Brian and take care! ✌️🏻

Wow, you had a great year! So many gems, that Van Der Graaf Generator is awesome. Always cool to find a Zeppelin boot, those 70s releases on Trade Mark of Quality are big collector items. I love the WCPAEB, cool you found an OG of the first album, great stuff! I picked up a reissue of the Tangerine Zoo album, fantastic stuff, so is their second album, Outside Looking In. Can't go wrong with Maggot Brain, love Funkadelic. You and Sorin always impress me with your amazing vinyl finds! Hope you have even more great finds in 2025!

[@YesterdaysTrips]

Thank you so much for the kind words! I definitely need to find a copy of Tangerine Zoo’s second album! I suspect that I will probably enjoy that one a decent amount more with it being more straight psych over garage. Thank you so much for watching! ✌️🏻

[@nigelcampag1290]

Great finds there. I'm still after Third Power and Floating Bridge. Well done on the McDonald & Sherby.... result! Cheers Nige

[@YesterdaysTrips]

Thank you so much for watching! They were very high up on my radar so I was dying to get copies of those haha. And thank you! Very surreal to own that record I have to say! Happy new year! ✌️🏻

[@Groovesandgrailsmn]

Congrats on the amazing jazz haul! The McDonald & Sherby is a major heavy hitter! I found a sealed copy a couple of years ago. The cover is so unassuming, but the album shouldn’t be underestimated. Cheers!🎉

[@YesterdaysTrips]

Wow a sealed copy is a crazy find! And yeah the cover could certainly be taken as a folk record at first glance! I find the contrast between the music and the cover to be very cool honestly haha. Thanks for watching! ✌️🏻

[@trentsrecords]

Awesome stuff, man! Floating Bridge is a NW classic. Also, don’t think it’s basic to say Mingus is your fav! He’s phenomenal and his compositions are fantastic. Love T2 too. One of my fav prog/hard rock albums, and can’t go wrong with any early Funkadelic! Killer stuff dude, cheers to more in 2025!

[@YesterdaysTrips]

Thanks Trent! Glad to hear from you again! Take care dude and I wish you the best in the coming year! ✌️🏻

[@katstar1982]

Nice! I love that you nabbed the mono promo of that West Coast Experimental Pop Art Band! Your excitement about that one is infectious. Thanks for this showcase. There is a lot of stuff here I plan to check out. Take care/happy New Year!

[@YesterdaysTrips]

[@BoomKazoo2112]

Very cool finds 🔥My local store had an OG copy of the Third Power so I traded in my reissue great record! Floating Bridge is an awesome find also. I’ve never seen that Banchee record in the wild great pickup! Bought the cd of Mingus the Clown back in the 80’s great album 🔥T2,WCPAEB,both Funkadelic and McDonald and Sherby All bangers 💥You had a great year !!! Take care Brian ☮️

[@YesterdaysTrips]

Still looking out for a CD copy of The Clown! Just recently got a copy of Tijuana Moods on CD and it sounds phenomenal! Really great to hear from you again Brian! Take care and happy new year! ✌️🏻

[@BrainDrainMediaArchive]

Been looking for a reasonably priced OG copy of “Maggot Brain” since I started collecting nearly 25 years ago. I gave up and bought a recent reissue a couple years ago. Just started my channel TODAY, essentially. Excited to join the community!

[@YesterdaysTrips]

Hey! Happy to welcome you to the VC! Will be checking out your channel! And yeah Maggot Brains tend to either be too expensive or in rough shape. I'm very thankful for the one I managed to get off eBay. It was by no means a crazy deal, but for the condition its in and the going price for them, I just had to pull the trigger. I previously had the 2014 European reissue of it, and for what they go for, its a very solid reissue! Thanks for watching! ✌️🏻
