The Greep album is my record of the year. Can't praise it enough and as you say it's unclassifiable.

[@cordesrecords]

How good is it! If I’d recorded my best of prior to Xmas it would have been up there!!

[@derekking9824]

Terrific post, really enjoyed it! Thnx heaps for sharing.😀🤣😀

[@Albert-jr4fu]

I like your record hauls More porfavor!!

[@dennislawson8910]

Good morning Katie. There is nothing better than a successful record haul. I do not know the Tim Hardin lp, I love the 60's folk scene. Thank you for sharing your wonderful & varied musical taste with us.

Great video Katie - very interesting as usual. I am a Travelling Wilburys fan and love Vol 1. Vol 3 (there was no volume 2) is also worth getting if you can get it for under $40 in NM condition. Glad I moved on collecting Split Enz catalogue about 5 years ago. They were incredible 👍 Loudin Wainwright has some great tunes and glad I have seen him live back in the day. If you haven’t heard “History” from 1992 (beautiful songs), or “I’d Rather Lead A Band” (jazz influenced) from 2020 - check them out as well. Inspired by your last video, I have ordered my first Monk album - Monks Dream on EBay, a 1987 pressing. Collecting vinyl is so rewarding-today I played an album from my collection that I wouldn’t have played for 20 years and I was totally blown away with the audio quality as well as the muscianship - Genesis Three Side Live.

Thanks very much. 😊

Fantastic video Katie. I've seen that Cunningham Bird LP around, but I had no idea it was a track by track version of Buckingham Nicks - I'm streaming it now and it's wonderful! Thanks for the info!

[@cordesrecords]

Oh fantastic! Pleased you now know.

Very cool 😎 record showing, some great finds. Some I'm not very aware of, may need to check them out. Curious why you needed to emphasize the one artist as "Queer" ? Does that fact make them more musical ? Cheers 🥂

[@cordesrecords]

It does to them😊

[@mikevinylspiral]

The Joni Mitchell bootleg was a lovely find as was the Sex Pistols Japanese press. Cheers Mike

[@cordesrecords]

Thanks for watching Mike😊 I was especially happy with the Joni :)

[@Jeffva868]

I saw Split Enz play in Canberra in 1984. Brilliant show.

[@cordesrecords]

Cool! 😊

[@jimmccloskey4254]

Traveling Willbury's - the Dylan track is his tongue in cheek response to Bruce Springsteen New Jersey epics. They're buds having fun.

[@cordesrecords]

Aaaah ok. I need to listen more carefully now! 😂

[@mariawesley7583]

"Urban Cowboy" is tied with "A Room with a View" as my favorite film soundtrack.

[@cordesrecords]

That’s cool! And quite the difference 😂

[@TheAuditoryVinyl]

Urban Cowboy! Love the movie and the soundtrack! i think that Traveling Wilburys album is great! but Im not sure about the others. Love the Split endz

[@cordesrecords]

Thanks!! Not a folk fan ?😂

[@peterx1957]

Hey Katie, great haul. Would love to have gone to the Newtown fair but lack of funds scupppered that. 🙄 That Wilburys LP is quite remarkable when one considers that George Harrison was originally trying to record a single B-Side and roped in some friends who happened to be tied into each other's albums. Dylan loaned them use of his studio. George presented the track ("Handle With Care") to his record company who deemed it too good for a mere b-side and requested an album which was made in around 2 weeks or so. It was friends having a lark. 😊 In 1988 I was travelling on a bus from Groningen to Drachten in the Netherlands and the man seated next to me was actually holding this CD. I didn't twig to what it was until I came back to Australia... long story for another day lol. Cheers 😊

[@cordesrecords]

Thanks for background Peter😊

[@narrowfield6846]

Very nice selection of records. Love Tim Hardin, Loudon Wainwright III (got T-Shirt as well), Joni Mitchell (anyway), Travelling Wilburys, etc. As I am not a particular collector of soundtracks, I go first for great songs (like Amazing Grace by Meryl Streep on Silkwood), and secondly when there is a tight connection between movie story and music (like High-Fidelity, Almost Famous, The Harder They Come, and many more). I love Andrew Bird, having several of his albums. I could not warm up with Cummingham / Bird yet. I listened to it via streaming at least ten times. But I will give it another try. Love Torres as well. And I will listen to Geordie Greep and Moses Sumney as well. By the way: I am looking forward to Mary Chapin Carpenter's Stones In The Road, which should be released first time on vinyl soon.

[@cordesrecords]

Thanks for watching! That mentioning of Amazing Grace from Silkwood brought back a sudden memory for me! Thanks for that! I haven’t thought of it for years. The One Night Only vinyl from Mary Chapin Carpenter during covid was wonderful - worth checking out.

[@narrowfield6846]

@@cordesrecords Hi Katie, during the corona lockdown we watched many of MCC's Songs From Home episodes. And we watched (and paid for) her great performance of One Night Only live when it was first distributed. If you imagine how great that was considering all the empty seats in front of her. And we have got the digital download of that performance.

[@lukeaus]

Don't feel bad about soundtracks. This is my favourite genre to buy all though not my most listen too.

[@cordesrecords]

Thanks for the moral support😊😂

[@hanselmerson3366]

Hello, never seen Split Endz live here in Sweden. I have seen Loudon W live, he was great and think Tim Hardins best was To Susan album...

[@cordesrecords]

Thanks! We were lucky to see London at a local folk festival in our small town in Australia about 10 years ago. Amazing artist.
