[@EightVinylLow]

“It’s hard it’s heavy it’s aggressive it’s loud” SAY IT TO MY FACE, ALEX.

[@beerandvinyl]

I’m pretty sure I have…? 👀

[@EightVinylLow]

@@beerandvinyl you right

[@samstjohn1994]

Da flippity floppity disc made me chuckle. That jazz record sounds like it would scratch me right where I itch. Great title, great video, Great White, Great Scott. Cheers

[@beerandvinyl]

Sir this is insensitive as we just lost the great singer and frontman of Great White

[@samstjohn1994]

I'm always insensitive

[@AnthonyGambler812]

Great debut Alex! Awesome pick ups! Floyd for $5, Bowie for $1! Congrats on the new series & good luck 👍🏻

[@beerandvinyl]

Thanks Anthony! Let's hope this isn't a one hit wonder series.. lol

[@brucybabyy7355]

i will check out the Elton. cheers!

[@beerandvinyl]

It’s definitely different, but I dig it!

[@finnroohomebrewing]

Awesome, Beer and Vinyl, right up my street. I'm into the same mix of music so very much enjoyed the show. Cheers from NZ😎👍

[@beerandvinyl]

Thanks so much for watching!

[@robwalkerletthemusicplay]

Hi Alex love all the police albums ..the uk copies were blue. 👍

[@beerandvinyl]

Hey Rob! Ahh yes! That's why i don't see it much. Looks like Spain's was purple which is kind of cool. The search continues!

[@richards5280]

Super start to the new series (this ‘episode 1’ is WAY better than Star Wars episode 1)! Some nice finds & spins, indeed!! 😎👍

[@beerandvinyl]

Thanks Richard! Appreciate all your support as always.. and unfortunately saying it's better than Episode 1 of Star Wars is not a compliment!

[@richards5280]

@@beerandvinylWellllll…it was intended to be complimentary 😆 No Jar Jar Binks is always a good thing!

[@MGKBOSTON]

Hi Alex! Thanks and Colton sends his best regards. 🐈 “Michelob Ultra doesn’t get any better” I have the Doors discography. One of my top 5 bands! John Densmore is a good drummer still. When we lived in Huntington Beach I remember he was playing in some jazz band and it was on the local PBS TV station around Christmas in /08. I wish there was footage on KZbin. I have a CD copy of Changes One Bowie. Art Blakey for Gary. The Police…I have them all. Looking forward to this new series Alex! ✌️

[@beerandvinyl]

Hey Colton! (And Mike!). That’s an awesome story about seeing Densmore. No disrespect towards the Doors, I do really like them, was more about just really loving Ray. Thanks for the inspiration sir!

[@RichStrickler]

Hey Alex. As much as I like L.A. Woman, I would never shell out $125 for it. Riders on the Storm is a masterpiece. That Bowie Changes One comp for a buck is a no-brainer. Nice grab there. Have a great weekend.

[@beerandvinyl]

you and me both, Rich! You talking about it on your R show with Glen probably inspired me.. it's brilliant! Thanks Rich!

[@MarkMorris-1962]

Some fantastic records this week, Alex. We've already discussed my love of Berlin (and I have the MoFi record coming), but you may be surprised that I was a HUGE Doors fan in my teens and 20s. I especially love their debut album and LA Woman. As with many things in my life, I obsessed over them to the point I actually burnt out on them. In recent years, I've been enjoying the Doors again, though. I think this is called "second childhood" when you get to my age. Anyway, I'll never shell out a 125 bucks for LA woman, but I am glad to hear there are still people who will. I saw Ray Manzarek iive in a small venue no long before he passed. Incredible man with incredible stories and smart as a whip. As Morrison himself said, "Ray Manzarek is the Doors." Maybe hyperbole, but the man was insanely talented and could really create a mood.

[@beerandvinyl]

Hey Mark! I forgot to shout you out in this video for some inspiration but that will happen soon :) very cool story about seeing Ray. Really appreciate you watching, friend!

[@matthewstreet1961]

Dig that tee! Great idea for a weekly roundup! You and MGKs Friday will be must-see TV! 😊🙏😎👍🎼🎶🎵

[@beerandvinyl]

I'll never be able to compete with Mike but just to be mentioned in his company is such an honor... HA! Thanks Matt!!

[@3dimensionsofmusic3D]

Great stuff Alex. LA woman is a fav of mine. I bought a repress a few years back @ 33rpm , sounds pretty good. I'll stay with it. Good finds. Berlin is on my list 😊

[@beerandvinyl]

Both great albums.. thanks Greg!

[@EightVinylLow]

That shark is so cute.

[@beerandvinyl]

You could have gotten one too if you accepted my invitation to Boston!

[@vikingbrace]

Hi Alex! What’s on Tap recap. Brilliant. Bowie for a buck? Wow! What record store does that on Mondays? Interesting Pink Floyd compilation. I love The Doors and LA Woman. That Police record is a fantastic debut. Sounds like you’re quite taken with Haken. What a title for the Caravan album 😂. Chris Squire was legendary. Have a great weekend Alex

[@beerandvinyl]

Thanks Gary! Spoonful Records in downtown Columbus does it every Monday! Thanks for watching and digging all the good music. have a good weekend sir!

[@vikingbrace]

@@beerandvinyl Never been to that store yet

[@vinylwood]

Fun video, glad to be part of this inaugural event. Cool finds , some are a must buy for the price. That Art Blakey on BN would be criminally insane to pass on for under $40. Did you notice the cover photo on the Pink Floyd album and the faces? The faces have been placed on the wrong bodies and David Gilmore’s image has been removed and replaced with Sid Barrett…..yikes. Weird how some labels take liberties with cover art. Thought I’d mention as it was blatant and unnecessary as the albums shown on the back cover were 80% Gilmore era.

[@beerandvinyl]

Fascinating! I'll have to go back and check that out.. thanks for watching and pointing that out. Cheers!

[@AllMediaReviewsPodcast]

"Late For Dinner" the original title of Kevin Gilbert's song "Shadow Self"

[@beerandvinyl]

Always can count on you for KG trivia!

[@twofromthetrunk9932]

The Doors album is one of my favorites. I really have to think hard about price, since i’m retired. 40 dollars isn’t too outrageous but the album must be something i really really want. Bowie for a dollar is a grab. Early Elton John was fantastic. He was a different artist then.

[@beerandvinyl]

Thanks Tony! Totally agree with all of this! Good thing I'll never retire.. so I don't have to save for it... HA! Cheers!

[@MortenAastad]

Hi Alex, howzit? Good morning from a sunny Skagen. Good start this, L.A. Woman is my favorite Doors album. One of those 1971’ers 😉 When ever I see a Pink Floyd comp, I always think… «why?!?» What an oddity! I still thing that Elton John covers looks like a soundtrack to an Elton John biopic starring Justin Timberlake 😆 Know nothing about Haken but wow, great album cover! Looks like the Ladd Company meets Weyland-Yutani Corporation design to put on a t-shirt 😎 One of you guys talked about Uncle Tupelo the other day? I got their biggest seller Yankee Hotel Foxtrot in a waaay too big box Christmas 2022 and, well, I have not been giving it enough attention. So, thank you for reminding me? 😄 Have a lovely weekend Alex 😊

[@beerandvinyl]

hey Morten! Thanks as always for watching! yes.. on that Haken cover they went full computer concept in all of the ways, and the music reflects that (but not electronic, if that makes sense?). I'd recommend checking out "The Mountain" as that is one of the best prog metal albums of the last 20 years. For more immediacy, check out their video "Cockroach King".. brilliant! And yes.. someone brought up Uncle Tupelo! YHF is great and I still need. Thanks friend!

[@MortenAastad]

@@beerandvinyl Thank you for the tip! I’m about to upload a video that’ll either have Chris Propfe laugh, smile, shake his head, call social services or murder me 😂 I will also recommend a craft beer channel in this 😉

[@jameswilson7084]

I'd think the people buying that Doors "L.A. Woman" UHQR LP would be better getting the "L.A. Woman" 50th anniversary deluxe edition set. You get a very good LP remaster, plus CD's of amazing alternate takes. I think it's already a great sounding album, on any format. It has to be The Doors best engineered album. I think all of The Police albums are great. I love just about everything they ever recorded. There's not many music artists I could say that about. I think that Elton John album is very good. And I wasn't expecting much, since I'm not much of a fan of Elton's debut, "Empty Sky" album.

[@beerandvinyl]

Agree with all this! The Police's career was basically perfect and they shut it down before it had a chance to completely unravel. I'll need to give empty sky another spin to check it out. Thanks for watching James!

[@roygoad2870]

Are you familiar with Blodwyn Pig? Saw them a bunch of times around 1970. Great two albums, listened to the track ‘The Squirreling Must Go On’ 🎉. From Getting To This 2nd album 😊

[@beerandvinyl]

Hey Roy! Very familiar.. I have Ahead Rings Out but not that 2nd record.. I’ll have to be on the lookout for it.. thanks!

[@JackTheMusicGuy]

Don't like polices debut only because they have that stupid song about a blow up sex doll 😒

[@beerandvinyl]

well I wouldn't know anything about THAT now would I jack
