I Bought a Record Collection #19: 500 Rare Jazz, Funk & Soul Vinyl Records. 

Jazz funk+jazz fusion, from the 70s+80s. Fantastic music😄

man, how do people part with collections like these? there was some legendary stuff in there. by far my favorite of your buys.

Oh wow..."Headhunters" has been on my lookout for a long time! Dylan with the poster...DAYUM! "A Love Supreme" is a jazz grail for me...man oh man! "B*tches Brew"...that's pretty cool! "Bags and Trane" some heat! You can't go wrong with Cannonball Adderley! "Completely Well" by BB King...very nice! "Song For My Father" another grail of mine! Lots of great showings man!

Amazing! If I didn't live 10 hours away I'd be lining up before the shop opens on Saturday. There are some really jaw dropping albums in that collection. I don't think a lot of these will last very long. I really can't wait until I can get back to Charlotte. Hopefully late spring/early summer timeframe.

Major respect for you wanting to maintain that excitement that comes with finding a record you've wanted in a store. Just last week I found a copy of Rio Grande Mud by ZZ Top. While that's not a rare record by any means, I had never seen a copy (first press or reissue) in any store. I wanted it just for "Just Got Paid" cuz it's such a great song. When I found it digging through some bins last week I was extremely excited and talked to the owner about how long I had been looking for it. There's no better feeling than finding something you've always wanted in a store!

You glossed over that Charles Sullivan LP- Great and quite rare!

I wish I could be at your store Saturday morning. You would take lots of my money!

"kool & the gang" like so many others who sold out to make terrible disco (I love disco but not the pop/commercial end of it) are almost like 2 different bands to me. Pre 1976 ish they are an amazing funk band with mainly instrumental tracks, after 1976 ish they are, if I'm being kind, no longer an amazing funk band. I'm glad you talked about Gabor because a few shows ago you sort of glossed past one of his albums which made me wonder if you weren't aware of him, the song "Mizrab" off "The Sorcerer" LP is one of my favourite tunes of all time (And yes I have about a million all time favourites just like Dillon lol).

God Almighty! This guy probably has all the best vinyl in the friggin universe!!! Amazing!

Just found your channel. Awesome . I’m starting my collection and your tips are gold. I found a few gems at the flea market. Over 200 LPS . 200 45s . I’m learning about album print differences. I’ll stay tuned

I have a several Gil Scott-Heron but that's the gap I've been trying to fill. I'd keep it for myself too.

The Freddie Hubbard LP you flipped past so fast at 15:00 gave me a chill! The title tells me it's a jazz interpretation of the My Lai Massacre. Songmy was the name of the larger town itself--My Lai was a neighborhood village within Songmy. The names are sometimes used interchangeably in history books. Man, I bet that's one staggering, dark piece of music.

Hi Dillon, New subscriber. Enjoying your videos.Best wishes for your store and the new year! Will be driving across the state to shop! Take care, Ralph

I know it's weird me commenting on a video from months ago lol but man what a cool collection. I actually found a Dylan greatest hits with the poster one time for $3 at an antique store. Thanks for the vids and caring for your local customers!! Gonna make my way down one day soon

Killer stuff there Dillon. The early K&TG lps are all great but that debut is fire! Only been after Pieces Of A Man since the early 90s...one of these days...haha. The local collectors are very fortunate to have you as their local record shop.

Nice catch

Awesome! Can’t believe this stuff!!!

That’s my kinda haul..Killer stuff!

I bought Pieces of a Man a few yrs ago NM for $7 at thrift store. Awesome you found one as well, great album

You're killing me, man. I. Want. That. Dylan. Poster. Unfortunately, we'll be out of town. Dave told me about that Shakara after we left the store last week. Head Hunters is a personal fave of mine as well. Awesome stuff.

Jazz? Now I'm waiting for Tunes from the Man Cave's collection update lol Awesome pick ups man!

Yes....this was one of the best. Geeeeeeez. The OG gil scott fucked me up! Damn! That eric burdon too! Yes! I respect that no shipping rule too. Love that.

I agree with bill from the vinyl verse. Awesome stuff!!!!

Really nice haul. Won’t last long. That James Brown is a tough one to find in the wild.

That Charles Sullivan Genesis Strata East how was that forgotten?

Hey Dylan, was just going through my records. And I looked inside one of my Dylan records. Was not the greatest hits. But it was Dylan record self titled Dylan and too my surprise I found that poster inside it. Anyways cool poster.

I have the 45 of "The Revolution Will Not Be Televised".

Sir, you have a good mix of albums in your record collection.

I have 3 copies of that Dylan Greatest Hits with the poster. One was my dad's, there's pictures of his place in the 60s with the poster on the wall. He's the kind of person that takes meticulous care of his stuff (I got the collecting gene honestly) and the poster was in the album, still in great shape, even though it was on his wall at one time. Another copy was in a box of records I won at an auction for maybe $20. With a good 50-75 records in there that means I only paid like 40 cents for it. The third copy, and the one I paid the most for, was only $3.99 at Half Price Books. Clearly they didn't know what they were doing! Such a cool poster. I got an original pressing of that Gil Scott last year from a local place here in Lexington, KY. I think it was about $40. Cheap considering what it is, but still a lot to pay for one record. But like you, that was one I'd been trying to find for ages, and I too like to discover the stuff, not just buy online.

I just spotified that Gill Scott-Heron, I recognized the revolution verse from some public enemy. That whole album is very funky, also reminds me of the impressions. Never heard of him, but will dig a little deeper. Thanks

Awesome stuff Dylan. Definitely up my alley. Lucky people that get to dig through. Should sell fast. People are sleeping on hell? Weird. Love that record.

Great collection!

Great catch!

Nicely done brother! That early James Brown you are keeping is fire! Not much to see here, just an OG press of A Love Supreme haha. Naturally there would be a Bert & Ernie record in there....it only makes sense haha. I'll have to check out that Chakachas Jungle Fever album. I recently got that Gil Scott-Heron Midnight Band myself...kept it on the artwork alone and man, it's killer music too. Killer collection man!

Hi Dylan . Great video and wow you did get some great stuff there . And I just did a video for you 403 is the video for you take care !!!

Amazing collection. And even though i'm all the way in London and would love to buy respect to you for only selling at your store.

first one.. Eric burden declares war is awesome... the Mother Earth blues for Memphis slim jam on side 2 is awesome

Got the pieces of a man on uk Phillips. The retta Hughes is dynamite. James brown hell, fantastic album. Next time I visit my family in n.c I may take a trip over. My greatest thrill is digging thru 45s and lps in the states 😁👍 Best wishes from the u.k

That Dylan poster is fresh

Great finds i am more into listening to music i just listened to Herbie Hancock sextant album amazing i wander is there any other jazz fusion albums that are recommended too

hi, love your videos, I do agree with you about preferring to wander into a record shop and buying from them direct, but when the shop you want to go into is on the other side of the world and due to the covid-19 coronacrap virus you cant leave your country (Australia) because all travel is banned, the net is the only way I can buy anything. however I do enjoy your videos (as well as frank's from channel33RPM) so keep them up. Do you have a website connected to your shop since it wont be until at least January '21 until we can fly out. Corona is a dirty word in my house. Anyway back to enjoying my 10k+ LP collection, in process of re-cataloguing them into alphabetical from ascending numbers. Enjoy the music....

I hate I work Saturdays. I'd make the trek up to North Carolina for that Fela and Coltrane.

Gil Scott Heron, pronounced Hair-uhn. Like the bird.

More than a few of the CTI records were recorded by Rudy van Gelder - aha, that's why they sound so good.

Nice collection.Over the years,I've purchased two or three superb collection of R&B.Is the Dylan poster that big-a-deal ?I have at least 15 copies of the Greatest Hits ...with that poster.

Nice stuff man, like I have said before it to far of a bike ride..lol. Peace

The alt cover for Jungle Fever is one of the sexiest (& sexist?) album covers of all time. IMO.

Interested in the Gil Scott Heron! How can I get in touch with you? Are you keeping it? Thanks! Mike

Dr John Babylon ...straight fire .... GSH fire!!!!

Stanley Turrentine pieces of dreams. And sugar are great LPS

Curtis live is the best!

FFFFFFFFUCK I want that "Maiden Voyage"!

I need an original of Pieces of a Man, I won’t ask you to ship it.

from where can i buy collections please?

I never see the Dylan poster. Poster is with more than the album.

Been looking for that Sextant and found it for $1. Sleeve is not in the greatest shape, but whatever.

Cal tjader, soul sauce!!!

The Rhetta is more Easy Listening than Funk/Soul, sought after but probably should not be, more a $5 than $50 vinyl. I never knew the Dylan had a poster (seen 100's over the yrs) about a year ago had a mint copy with poster did not know what to price it as, let it go for $15, maybe $20. Pieces of a Man, essential. His prices go up and down quite radically, or have done for 40yrs. Just don't buy anything after 74/75, it all went Pete Tong. Some hipsters still buy them though, no idea, or just collector types! The piano on the Wanda R is well worth checking out, her voice or the album as a whole, mixed bag! The Jihad Lp, woooooooo....about $200 maybe more if vg plus plus. Timepiece. Not a bad bunch, I'd have driven an hour or so and given him about 1k for them. Any half decent vinyl shop needs the OG's early 70's Mayfield, Wonder, Davis, Bohannon, GSH's in stock. Hot Buttered Soul $12? Are you sure it is not $2.? Malcolm X , he must have done a lot, I have a few but none of those. cheers

Amiri Baraka does the spoken word on Black&Beautiful. He's credited as Leroi Jones cause it's right before he converted to Islam and changed his name. My uncle read with him a few times in Newark. Dylan, I know you don't ship, but seeing a Baraka LP out of Jersey just feels wrong. I kid i kid. Be well

Man, what do you do? Do you hypnotize people ? Do you give them an offer they can't refuse? Do you pay them a bunch of money but just enough to make a profit?Whatever you're doing is working, great records.

Yeah cut. Creed taylor

You didn’t show the inside of black mans burden...classic photo inside

Wow! GSH Pieces of A Man. That’s actually a jazz album. I purchased my copy from Tower Records in 1978. It features jazz giants, McCoy Tyner and Ron Carter. I actually may have two copies. Didn’t realize how highly coveted it is. My copy looks and plays new. Hearing it from you makes me feel especially proud that I managed to hold on for so long. Great presentation. I’m gonna visit u one day just for the hell of it. Maybe I can search my collection for records that we might exchange?
