We Found a GRAIL Collection in Florida! Jazz, Funk, Psych, Metal and More!

[@savingsoul]

wow wow wow

[@numsiskit]

Nice! I will be giving a lot of those a listen. I'm not very knowledgeable about jazz funk. But that Maggot Brain! 👀

[@MB-zq6ii]

I am just frothing at the mouth seeing all those OG German Can pressings. Absolutely killer stuff!

[@jojo-hf7wr]

thanks for all the recommedations wow introduced me to some bangers!

[@brentcunliffe745]

Like most record fanatics I have watched a LOT of record finds/ collections of KZbin videos and this is probably the best I have seen to date. Thanks for posting.

[@noblerecords]

Thanks so much!

[@artgazpacho]

One of the coolest collections I've ever seen, so much stuff in there I'd die to have. Killer score!

[@nechadi]

Amazing, everything is amazing. It is also incredible.

[@dazaaw]

Omg how many grails..! this guy had a killer collection.. looked like you had so much fun

[@noblerecords]

It was tremendous fun! Thanks for watching! 🙏

[@kransencrates]

Neat buy, very nice selection

[@phillipcooke500]

Dillon, So, I have spent the last week slowly going through this video and checking out albums and listening to them. One of these videos tends to last me about 12 days of going down the glorious rabbit hole of music. You have no idea how thankful I am Dillon for these videos. It's just...point and shoot, you just can't miss. It's all gold. That Edwards Generation, 'The Street Thang' is so sick. And Calvin Keys! Far out. Australia is a long way from your shop. Don't think I'll ever travel that way. But if I do, I will definitely drop in and say thank you. You are into this for the right reasons Friendo. You are a genuine person. My Daddy used to say that "Jazz is what you get when you get Blues and throw it down a flight of stairs." He was way off.... Cheers,

[@paolaginelli5277]

AMAZING Collection, Impressive !!!! ;-)

[@josephdeane9158]

incredible collection. PHEEEW

[@johannadavis7594]

Wow. And amazing collection and kept In great condition

[@noblerecords]

Yes! I’m stoked to have it. Thanks for watching! 🙏

[@tituschalk]

Stunning collection! I can’t imagine letting that go, but I’m glad it went to someone who appreciated it

[@Jaybird66sweptline]

That's a well thought out, well curated collection. World class collection. Glad it went to someone like yourself. That's not something you see every day. Kudos.

[@richard8417]

Insane collection 😮

[@geoffbirchenall]

Congratulations! Insane collection. Bathory to Dorothy Ashby. That's my kind of haul!

[@Fatdogrecords]

Best collection you have shown, that guy knew his stuff.

[@noblerecords]

He really does!

[@sampietro.e]

Dear original owner, well done! This is what I call a collection: well rounded, tasteful, to the point. It's also good to know when to stop: this collection screams "mission accomplished" and it's probably the right time to spread these records back into the world like Dragonballs. I hope you had a nice ride!

[@enders357]

"It's also good to know when to stop" - this is what I keep telling myself. Don't buy stuff just for the sake of it. Keep a smallish, curated collection. Swap out ones you won't listen to or are just there to tick a box. Thats what I do anyway, but each to their own!

[@noblerecords]

I totally agree. Great comment. He killed it!

[@JohnMuchel]

TY ✌️

[@bigsweetc6]

@@enders357 what do we consider reasonable. I only have like 1500 LPs and maybe the same in 45s. Dudes that own 10,000 can never realistically listen to all of them again so when and where is the cut off for us lunatics? What do you guys consider as the high limit for a manageable collection you can actually listen to and enjoy. I swear other guys just having grails collecting dust. I know Dylan definitely listens to his and I strongly respect he opens his sealed records to listen to. I cannot stand the idea of people intentionally keeping something sealed! It’s made to be played.

[@minoemann8808]

It’s getting spread to his local customers. You saltines are the worst

[@AllThingsProg]

Wow..what a diverse and eclectic collection! Zappa, Zombies, Aphrodite's Child and then suddenly you see Bathory, Slayer next to them. Awesome!

[@andrewodonnell5058]

Absolutely mind blowing collection that guy had impeccably taste.👏👏👏

[@noblerecords]

Yes! Amazing taste

[@Setinstonesandrew]

I just got the edwards generation a few weeks ago. Super tight record.

[@NeilRigler]

Killer collection - thanks for walking us through it! I'm a huge fan of Strata East and Black Jazz and you showed a few I wasn't familiar with but are now on my list! Thanks!

[@gonolith]

Wowza what an excellent haul there! Being able to fill holes/upgrade your own collection along with what's going out to the people is a total win win for all. Looking forward to seeing what makes it to the whatnot stream. Thank ya Dillon!

[@noblerecords]

Thanks man!

[@FizzicksDude]

I've enjoyed every minute of this adventure and look forward to the next!

[@noblerecords]

Thanks!

[@NoisyBeast]

Juicy, mouth watering goodness!!

[@mlblue5355]

Wow! Completely insane collection! Congratulations! Enjoy!

[@noblerecords]

Thanks man!

[@jiggsh54]

Watching your excitement is inspiring. I have even seen some new “to me” artists.

[@noblerecords]

Thanks for watching! 🙏

[@ShootingStars808]

And all just sitting in his living room! 🤯

[@luxgoods]

Great video and amazing collection! Can anyone tell me what’s the name of the Japanese album with red art cover that shows at 30:37? I used to listen to this album but completely forgotten the name. Thanks

[@luckyjhagra6020]

Love that you are stoked on the jazz but I watched looking for the metal, thanks cool to see what people have. 😀

[@mikemtbc]

Sick collection! I’m drooling over the soundtracks. Insane.

[@bassbymichele]

This must be the most beautiful collection ever

[@noblerecords]

It’s not too shabby

[@Localbandography]

Harlem River Drive with Bernard Purdie throwing down. Awesome that one was in there.

[@footyguy01]

I have basically 90% of what you showed. However, it took me over 35 years to obtain. I could not imagine just walking into a place & getting all that at once. What a score!!!❤

[@TheJazzBasement]

Congrats! Huge level up on your jazz collection man!

[@asupremelove5149]

Gotta respect the hustle. That's a hell of a find buddy!

[@noblerecords]

Thanks man! See you tomorrow

[@dewey70]

Wow! Are you going to have to build all new shelves for all these?

[@dannykitchen1699]

Is there an easy way to tell if something is a first pressing or do you have to look it up somewhere? Awesome collection

[@Leaman001]

Tight tight tight!! I wanna visit the shop so bad

[@AttackFromDownunda]

I never see stuff like this. Would love it , if you were my local record store. Also Man Dillon you have slimmed down. Take care, loved the metal stuff.

[@noblerecords]

That’s man! I’m trying!

[@natesvideos7339]

Mort Garson’s Plantasia is a fantastic album! It’s hilarious that it was originally only released in his wife’s plant store as a bonus when people bought flowers lol

[@twofromthetrunk9932]

Just fantastic

[@studiolonepine]

Crazy cool collection. I really need to head out to Carolina! : )

[@noblerecords]

Please do!

[@ab3000x]

Other than your collection Dillon, this is the sickest collection I've ever seen. I'm going to have to rewatch this one when it's not so late. I like to take screenshots (and crop down to the cover) and write down the artist(s) and title(s) so I can go look them up. It's going to take some time to research these. keep on rockin' in the free world.

[@noblerecords]

Thanks man!

[@gardenofgrooves]

Strata/Strata East, Black Fire, Black Jazz, Blue Notes & all over in between. This is the type of collection I come across only in my dreams

[@noblerecords]

Yeah me too! They don’t come along much!

[@TLA1014]

Damn, he took such good care of his record collection! You hit PAY DIRT, Dillon! Enjoy the additions to your own collection!

[@LRogersPhoto]

Did you guys go to "Rock Roll Heaven" ?, used to visit when I lived down there in 2012. Great store!

[@noblerecords]

Wasnt able to make it there unfortunately

[@ethanwolf569]

Some Big one in there better keep! Great collection Great video

[@noblerecords]

Thanks Ethan!

[@alwaysexpandinghorizons6173]

Looks like my own collection. Great stuff in there!!

[@noblerecords]

Let me know if you ever sell it 🤣🤣

[@mariomarques9951]

Wow. Just wow. Thanks for showing so much of this great collection. Never heard of Henri Texier, but you peeked my interest and after streaming, I am compelled to track him down. I also covet those Cliff Jordan Strata East - maybe I will get lucky soon. I wish you had bought this collection just prior to my visit to your store last November! Ha. Maybe next time.

[@big_burly_bro]

I've been digging for Magic of Ju-Ju for yeeeears. Tremendous score. That Maggot Brain has me salivating. That The Shining soundtrack is gonna make someone's day for sure. Hard Hitter is a hard hitter. Black Merda is legit as all get out. I just bought a repress of that Warhorse repress from you, but that swirl is next level tasty. Original Cans can never be in the bins enough. Sooo much killer stuff.

[@jonsrecordcollection7172]

Black Merda is one of the great "My Soul's Been Psychedelicized" bands. Other psychedelic soul LPs worthy of tracking down are Power of Zeus, Scorpion, Velvert Turner Group, Purple Image, Madhouse. The list goes on.

[@big_burly_bro]

Love that Power of Zeus! I have a repress. Don't sleep on the Temptations' psychedelic soul era.

[@LPS-R-US]

Wow!

[@offthebeatentracks4515]

Congrats. Looks like a major, major score!

[@noblerecords]

Thanks!

[@markspooner1224]

That was...I'm lost for words!

[@LPS-R-US]

Definitely a collection u don't see "everyday" congrats on cutting a deal

[@davidweber2143]

Incredible! Thanks for sharing this, been hanging for the video since seeing the highlights on IG. Not sure if this is the kinda info you want to share but I'd love to know what your approach was to making an offer on a collection like this? Obviously not going into numbers but just how you would even begin to break it down and arrive at a figure.

[@Jewi7Orchestra]

What a great collection! I got those two Henry Texier records; amazing stuff.

[@noblerecords]

Yes! Thanks for watching! 🙏

[@charleshandley5661]

I may drive to North Carolina from Baltimore for that Bathory!

[@joemartucci4786]

Killer finds. Hoping to stop by the shop on our way down or back from Florida.

[@bisket2003]

NOICE! Ive been looking for that Jackie Mclean LP for a while now too.

[@noblerecords]

Yes!

[@djtrishm]

Wow lots of cool records!

[@jasonarsenault3791]

Your son has a lot more colouring to do. Nice haul. As always!

[@jerrymarchesi5949]

When will Pink Floyd dsotm. Be in the shop for sale. Thanks. Dillon.

[@glynforster3873]

Hey Dillion, amazing haul. Looks like it was well worth the trip! Good to see you last Friday and thanks again for letting me hang out all day. I had a blast! If you want to get rid of those uk vertigo’s just let me know! Glyn

[@noblerecords]

Thanks man! Great to meet you!

[@nigelcampag1290]

Crazy collection..all killer, no filler. Hell's Belles is one of my favourite OSTs. The drums just sound so fat on it. Too many amazing records to mention.

[@brucybabyy7355]

its not fair! you get all the rekkids!

[@bisket2003]

Well Yeasus.......I just got a wholes years worth of NEW to me music to listen too now.

[@cliffbloomingdale3068]

Awesome score. Nice road trip video. Bring Dom back for sure. I just scored a test press of The Conqueroo from the Vulcan Gas Company it was pressed at MayKing records. I think you recommended it years ago in an early heavy rotations. Also picked up Lucifers Friend s/t and Banquet plus an original Flower Travellin Band - Make Up. Thanks again for the passion and knowledge you bring for guys like me so we can enjoy and expand our collections with killer not filler !

[@noblerecords]

Thanks so much! Glad you’re getting something from the videos. Dom will always be around, he’s one of my best friends.

[@ChrisHolt-mo9on]

Was that Henri Texier’s Varech Dom flipped past?!? Been looking for that for YEARS!!!

[@DominicGeralds]

Yes, yes it was 🤌🏾

[@kristoffer5771]

Jebus. That is the craziest collection ever...❤

[@noblerecords]

Haha thanks man!

[@mercurialmagictrees]

It's been a little while since I tuned into a video of yours. I am glad I watched this one. Unique collection of mostly stuff I am unaware of. I liked how he organized his collection. Nice furniture. It's a bummer he wanted to sell it all but I am glad it's going in your collection and your shop.

[@mercurialmagictrees]

7:30 that's awesome how the music matters more then the money when it can be managed. It's a testament to how much joy records brings to us.

[@noblerecords]

Thanks for coming back around! This was a fun one!

[@enders357]

Quick question - and apologies if you've answered elsewhere - but what plastic sleeves do you use? And do you slip the record itself straight in there loose?

[@noblerecords]

I use 3 or 4 mil poly sleeves for the outer and mofi sleeves for the inner. Lots of people, both me and the guy I got this collection from, store the inner sleeve outside the jacket.

[@BOBBRADLEYCHANNEL]

#collectiongoals. Great work Sir!

[@BellTunnel]

Do you sell on Discogs? Where can we find some of these when they’re for sale?

[@fotoram]

Yusef Lateef's Jazz Mood is worth the trip itself! Very hard to find OG. I almost bought one online, but it wasn't very well taken care of and the seller misinterpreted the condition. I just bought a 20's repress because I just had to have it on vinyl. It sounds pretty good but one day I'll get a nice clean OG. It's hard to get anything like that collection in California. They are either gone and in someones collection or being sold for astronomical prices. Awesome collection!

[@judyli9800]

I need to go digging in Florida, those jazz records! 🎉

[@chestermiller1768]

After getting all these are there any other lps u want?It take me rest of my life just to play em once 😆

[@thomas2236]

Keeping the records out of the cover when they are in a shelf is kinda weird. When shipping ok but when stored?

[@noblerecords]

Reduces wear in the record and jacket when removing the disc, but it’s just preference. Lots of people do it

[@PriapeBoudu]

All that great jazz and funk stuff right along Bathory. This guy wasn't kidding around.

[@noblerecords]

He was hard core 🤣

[@darwinthepubgmute7376]

How much was it for that kitchen

[@Bound2glory]

Yo @noblerecords - Dillon, you gonna be bringing the heat for RSD? I don't really do the traditional RSD thing, but I was thinking of heading out your way from Raleigh this Saturday..

[@revolver64]

Freaking weird - I just discovered that Dorothy Ashby Afro-Harping myself a few days ago, and it’s like the third record you show! I dig it!

[@donbaker9352]

Love those Dorothy Ashbys right off the bat. Nice to see an OG Afro Harping among others. Plus the Black Jazz stuff 👌

[@noblerecords]

Yes! Amazing stuff!

[@lapeercharlie8691]

Somebody pinch me! What a dream collection. GO DYLAN!!!

[@listen_to_records444]

Damn!! Helluva score fellas.. Sheeeit!! 🔥

[@natesvideos7339]

That Batman and Robin album that you pulled out at the beginning, (I’m sure you know the story/the musicians), but for those who don’t, that album is a collaboration between Sun Ra and members of his Arkestra and members of Al Kooper’s Blues Project. Quite the unexpected collaboration but an interesting record indeed

[@SmartDave60]

Nice Miles Ahead. Original cover.

[@michaeldelorenzo6827]

I sysed more gong Gazeuse! And You I would love to have !

[@hippydjkit9913]

One record better than the one next.....i would have loved to see how he looked how old is he....a great collection from what i saw.....

[@noblerecords]

He seemed to be mid 40s. Excellent taste

[@mugwump6885]

Harlem River Drive is a great Album. I listen to it on Tidal now, reminds me a bit to the better stuff of War. Most of the other Albums are a lil bit to "Jazzish" for me, Thanks for the recommendation!

[@topherg1935]

Great collection, why did he sell?

[@noblerecords]

Just wanted a fresh start, he wasn’t listening to them anymore

[@jdmin21]

man, those black jazzs'. saw a axe songs of innocence whoa

[@happyhippythevinylguy]

Nice collection man! Have you ever played side 2 of that Covan album?

[@noblerecords]

I try not to 🤣🤣🤣

[@dasbakon]

You know it's a hot collection when you don't even show that copy of Speak Low, which is one of the rarest jazz records on the planet!

[@noblerecords]

Haha well, it’s not a first press. I wish!

[@FerdinandLezaire]

yo Oliver Nelson is a god, one of the best arrangers of all time, with influences from all around the world

[@noblerecords]

He is! But skull session is just my favorite

[@Jason1978]

I need the Halloween soundtrack!!

[@montopolisthrasher]

Was that a Phantasm soundtrack?

[@garywerner5672]

Are you still pulling a record out of your collection for every new one you add?

[@noblerecords]

Not at all, don’t think I’ve ever done that 🤣

[@brodiekaitlyn-mindful2653]

Dude you should do a collection video series - going through all your records for hours👌

[@noblerecords]

I thought about it 🤣 that would be a long video
