Check out this K-Tel Record Selector! Is this the weirdest record accessory ever made? Maybe... but now it’s mine. A total time capsule of 70s TV marketing... and it goes well with my Ronco Record Vacuum. Stay tuned for the full unboxing and demo this Sunday.

I finally got my hands on a vintage Ronco Record Vacuum to see if it’s a hidden gem or just 1970s weirdness. I unboxed this "cordless electric" wonder, popped in some giant D batteries, and put it to the test. The result? Let’s just say it’s... fast. youtube.com/watch?v=Ojdd7H…

The return of Friday Night Vinyl! In today’s episode, I’m diving into the newish RHINO Reserve series. These are premium pressings, cut from analog masters, that retail for US$32. Are they good? Yup. youtu.be/ec6AiEiKZFQ

New video alert! 🚨 I headed to the Toys R Us closing sale expecting deep discounts on records and CDs, but what I found was... well, a mess. 📉 No deals? Damaged shrink wrap? Check it out here: youtu.be/uZ4oD8NpxBY

This one popped up in my video feed today... what a flashback! Record shopping in #Winnipeg nine years ago (I was only visiting at the time - we were living in Edmonton). We also found Neil Young's teenage home in this video.... youtube.com/watch?v=jFASwp…

I paid my pal Peter at Duly Records in Winnipeg a visit... sold him an Ozzy box set and checked out some awesome records. Come tag along... youtu.be/IOQ7NVeJTVE

My Chinese "Gibson" Les Paul (aka Chibson) just arrived. First impressions .... it looks and feels pretty darn good... I'm going to tune it up and report back.

Man, times flies. Someone just sent me this gig poster. 30 years ago my band Spit in the I played a New Year's Evr bash. If I remember correctly, we were playing at midnight and missed the countdown. Everyone was pretty wasted... and I'm sure no one noticed the delay, lol.

If you feel like record collecting is becoming too expensive and generally headed down the wrong path... you’re not alone. That’s my biggest takeaway from the annual Channel 33 RPM Viewer Survey. Let's dive into this... youtu.be/npeYg7hq1HQ

For many of us, K-Tel albums were among our very first records. What really happened to the company that practically invented the modern infomercial AND the compilation album? And how does it continue to quietly thrive in the digital age? youtu.be/-aXHCFsAeKA

Happy Black Friday! Grab a drink - let's sit back and talk music. In this episode, I talk about Record Store Day and a bunch of cool stuff that landed in my mailbox (apologies to the band SAY SHE SHE, which I called She, She, She). youtu.be/NRkLwDfeW3c

😁

I'm dusting off the video-making machine. See ya tomorrow.
