VINYL FINDS. 10 ALBUMS I ADDED TO MY COLLECTION IN JANUARY  

adverts on my videos are out of my control. I’m not monetised

You always give me new music to check out. Looked up Elbow. I really like them so off I go to search my local record store lol. Great video Rob!

Nice finds and at good prices, Rob! Holy cow, cool you got to see Beautiful South. I was dating a 36C when 36D came out back in the day. Oh, the mammories... errrrr ... "memories". Hope all is well! Cheers, Tom

Thanks Rob, these types of videos are right up my alley. Good inspiration for my want list. Now I’m gonna be hunting for that Eurythmics album.

Hi Rob, you particularly piqued my interest in the new Shed Seven album. I guess I had written them off a little, but you have sold it, so I’ll pick that up tomorrow. I’m also looking forward to Audio Vertigo, the single sounds great. Mike

That’s a pretty good month Rob :-) thanks for another great video sir.

I’ve never seen that Madness comp. I rather like their albums. They are much more than just the singles.

Nice video and so surprised to see Shed Seven coming back! I was lucky to see them in concert in my town at the time of their 1st album, which I liked very much , I still have the T-shirt that was sold at the time 😁 ... Elbow seems to be more famous in England than in France unfortunately, it is a very good band...

Some great pick ups Rob. I have a soft spot for R.E.M.'s Monster. It was the one and only time a got to see them live and they were brilliant. Grant Lee Buffalo were a great support too. I'd never realised that the Buggles cover had the cord stuck into his neck! Madness were a pretty great singles band & I quite like their early albums. I've just recently got into Alvvays. Such great smart pop songs. Good haul Rob. Cheers....Ben

Hi Rob, Monster is a great album… love the blue cover too! Never heard the remix version.

Hi Rob, nice set of finds. One of my favourite Elbow albums there. Shed Seven is a name from the past. Age of Plastic is high on my want list and I agree you never see it. I'm going to a fair tomorrow so maybe...cheers Dale

Awesome video Rob 😀👍 I love Elbow’s ‘Leaders Of The Free World’ album; it’s pretty underrated in their catalogue and cannot wait for the new album in March man 😀👌 R.E.M’s ‘Monster’ was a grower for me; but I really do love it now; some amazing tracks on there indeed ‘Bang & Blame’; ‘Tongue’; ‘Let Me In’ & ‘Strange Currencies’; yep brilliant album 👍 I haven’t listened to ‘The Plastic Of Age’ - Buggles in absolute years man?! Noel’s ‘Who Built The Moon’ is utterly magnificent mate; definitely my fav solo album of his and very much looking forward to seeing him at Piece Hall in August 😎 The Beautiful South’s debut album is amazing; I really do hope they get to reissue ‘Blue Is The Colour’ & ‘Quench’ down the line 🤞 Fantastic haul video Rob; have a good weekend bud 😀🍿🎸🎶

I have a copy of the Buggles album which I purchased when it came out. I haven’t listened to it for years. I will definitely revisit it thanks to your video. Cheers Rob. 👍

Nice mixed selection Rob. Utter Madness is basically Greatest Hits Volume 2, following on from 82’s Complete Madness. Thanks for sharing 😊

Elbow are fantastic!! A guy i knew working in a pub kept telling me to check out this band...i didn't know anything about them but once i heard their music i thought they were amazing and now have majority of their albums on CD 👍

Enjoyed the diversity of the pickups! Gonna give a few of those a listen, since I wasn't familar with them. Thanks for sharing, Rob.

Not sure I remember Monster now it's been ages...... 25 years. Shocking. Elbow from HMV for 15£ no brainer. I cannot stand HMV so you've done well to persist with them. I think we forget how huge Beautiful South were and actually good pop songs. Dark though. I'd like to hear that Eurythmics one, often seen it. Never heard Buggles either. Cheers Rob, hopefully see you in Leeds?

Hi Rob, James Griffiths sent me that Buggles album as VCLT some years back. It works well as a companion piece to the album by Yes called Drama. Trevor Horn and Geoff Downes appear on that as well, released in the same year. Cheers

Video Killed The Radio 📻 Star 📺 ! Love the work Trevor Horn did on The Lexicon Of Love & Welcome To The Pleasuredome & of course 90125.

Hi Rob - I always learn something new from your videos, like Shed Seven this time around. I have no memory of them. Utter Madness is new to me too. I like The Age of Plastic. Nice to see Alvvays mentioned. Very good additions 🙂

Excellent pick-ups, Rob. HMV is no more here. We have Sunrise Records. I'm not familiar with some of the artists you've shown, but they look great! Enjoy the listen, my friend

Hi Rob, i keep looking at that Buggles album but im waiting for it to come down in price a bit, ive not heard that Eurythmics album. i love Monster, a great album and Gallagher's album contains my favourite ever song of his, Holy Mountain. - Lloyd

Wonderful pick-ups!

Hi Rob - the Buggles debut is great , also like the Adventures in Modern Recording album - both not that easy to find , I bought the Elstree single and loved the B side Johnny Riding on the Monorail .

It doesn't matter if its 10 or 2 records as long as you're happy,that's all that counts Rob. People would still watch you 👍👍👍 There was one particular album there that made me smile,no prizes for guessing what it was 😁😁😁

Hi Rob. Shed 7, that's a band we don't hear too much about on the VC. I really like Monster, I just picked up the CD from Oxfam for a couple of quid last week. I love The Age of Plastic, it's a Top 10 album for me. Their second LP is even harder to find but is also good. If you ever see the original Bruce Woolley Camera Club album, pick it up - it's got the original versions of Clean Clean and VKTRS on it. I'd forgotten about Young Disciples, that's a blast from the past. Cheers, James

I ❤ REM. I saw them in concert for the Monster tour. I do enjoy the singles on this album. Nice to see those 1980s albums. Annie Lennox is my favorite female vocalist. Have a good day 😊.

Elbows new album audio vertigo is released on 22 march on blue vinyl .,and I was mistaken the buggles album the age of plastic was released in January 1980

Hi Rob, I had no idea Shed 7 were back together. loved them back in the day of A Maxim high and Let it Ride . Saw them a couple of times - once supporting The Beautiful South! Good to know they still have some good tunes

I love Elbow. Wish I’d discovered them after I got back on vinyl. Rough Trade’s got a nice looking edition of their new album looks like? I’d love that Shed Seven album. Chasing rainbows is an amazing anthem of the age. Great Great Madness comp that I own on cassette. Got all the Eurythmics in those uniform looking CDs that came out years back. Not listened to the first one much. I do have the 1984 soundtrack but on vinyl from back in the day, and I looked at it and I’ve not treated it too kind back when I was a kid looks like. Hey, I also got that Beautiful South a few weeks ago (on vinyl) and with that cover. Love them so much. I really need to get Paul Heaton and his «solo» work with Jacqui Abbot. I have Acid Jazz records. Corduroy! 😊 All the music you show I love or want Rob 😊 Hey, got my first VCLT yesterday! Have a great rest of the week man! Cheers from Morten.

Nick pick ups Rob. I have to admit i never saw this Eurythmics album in any store or record show i have ever been to. The Bugles were huge in France back in the day, thanks for sharing Rob, take care 🙂

Hi Rob! I only have an older Elbow album on compact disc. I do love Guy Garvey's voice and should get some more. Love the cover on that Shed Seven record. Nice copy of that Buggles album. I saw a documentary on Conny Plank last year. Not sure where it is streaming now, but it's worth you seeking out. Your description of Alvvays was spot on! Love that Beautiful South album. Nice haul Rob! ✌

Hi Rob. I looked up 'Monster' on RU-vid earlier today, after you showed it in Simon's live stream. It's the same price as the single disc version. I'm tempted. There are some 'bargains' on Amazon at the moment. 'Who's Next' box set for £112?

In the Garden is a brilliant not often mentioned album from the 80’s English Summer is such a good song.Thats a great pickup The Beautiful South in that condition.. the replacement album cover has a teddy on it and I believe is actually rarer though I could have made that up 😂 they were fantastic live in the 90’s saw them many times. Paul & Jackie are still making great interesting music.

Love the Age of Plastic Rob..very innovative record, Johnny on the Monorail is my favourite track, but it's all good. I was wrong in thinking the album was released at the end of 1979. In the Garden is wonderful..the first 2 Eurythmics albums are far and away the best..after that, you only really need the singles imho. I'm Never Going To Cry Again is sublime and the video was wonderfully atmospheric.

Saw the guy from Shed Seven doing a DJ set at the roadmender in Northampton around 2016.

I love the Eurythmics- i remember first hearing Love is a Stranger when I was living in Germany and I just thought it was excellent. It’s still one of my favourite tunes. Cheers Rob !

Young Disciples album is superb, played that to death in the 90’s but need to get another copy. Hope you enjoyed my vinyl tag this year 😉

The Alvvays album is a belter. Picked this up for £12.99 as well. Happy days. Good jangly guitars and hooky songs. I always thought Monster by REM was underrated.

Hey Rob. Having grown up near York, we always used to see Rick Witter swanning about at gigs trying to do his best Ian Brown swagger. Weirdly, last year a friend messaged me to say she'd just spotted me on TV. She had been watching a documentary about the Britpop years. In a section about Shed Seven, there was archive film from 1994 following the band around York, and in a record shop you could see me and a mate in the background. I have no recollection of the filming and hadn't seen it back in the day. That was a surprise. Cheers - Hedley

Their first Number 1 album for the Sheds too, Rob. Instant Pleasures is really good too. Saw them play live in Manchester in November and they were superb!

Great mix Rob. Leaders of the Free World I need on vinyl. I'm holding off on pre-ordering the new one as I was really disappointed with the last one. Buggles is interesting. Never seen on vinyl. Cracking

The Buggles album is excellent and I love the music they came up with, amazing production by Trevor Horn as you’d expect. Their second album Adventure in Modern Recording is equally as good.
