-- way to ring in the New Year!! Thanks so much for this -- and especially for the offensive records! It is so exciting to see a mainstream label like Blue Note fully embrace the all-analog chain for their vinyl reissues, and to see their faith rewarded with epic sales. Quality does indeed sell. Hopefully others will follow. The only downside to the vinyl resurgence is finding bargains in the used record stores, but I'll take the trade-off. Love your videos -- more please!!!!

I'm not the typical Taylor Swift fan, being almost 52, male, but I bought Folklore too, and even watched the Netflix documentary about this album. I think it is one of the most relevant albums of the year.

What on earth happened when you showed that Nina Simone album? Did the white balance change automatically? Make a mental note, Michael: turn off auto white balance of your camera in the future. It's yet another argument for the BLM being so relevant these days. Even cameras are racist/biased! (note: I actually think the camera reacted to the blue/white color of the album, not to Nina. It's weird though, that auto white balance didn't change when the Nina album was gone).

Recent documentary, definitely worth watching. Available on Netflix.

I wonder about the marketing strategy of being offensive? Do I want to pay money to have someone offend me...like having Don Rickles come after you.

Really great video Michael and I've always appreciated your knowledge about everything vinyl. But, I'd like to know where one can purchase some of these records that you give reviews to. Like the Tom Petty box set. All I can find is the seven album box set and I believe that you're holding up the nine record album set.

Just watched you video, this is the second video shot where your Alexx's are in the back room on time-out. What is in there place? Could it be a 370k version?

I was hoping that was it. Cant wait to read it. If you decide to keep them I will rob someone and buy the Alex’s.
I listened to the Chronosonic’s quite a bit when Rudy had them in West Palm. Even my wife liked them.

Loved the video. I second the request for more. I’m almost 73 and my 37 yr old daughter gave me Taylor Swift’s Folklore for Christmas. I wasn’t excited at first until she told me that Aaron Dessner and Justin Vernon co wrote some of the songs and performed on the album. Wow! What a great album.

Thanks also for mentioning Car Seat Headrest. I saw it in my local record store the other day. I’m going back to buy it.

It’s great that companies are continuing to support it however I fear that way too many are getting into it simply for the trendiness of records rather than to experience a more involving music medium. I visit many of our local shops and notice that teens and twentysomething’s are buying it because of coolness factor. I’ve seem more than my share of them taking selfie’s holding lp’s. Eventually most will move on to the next big thing after their crosley’s have destroyed most of their purchases, will the companies quickly dump the format?

Here’s another example of the power of the vinyl resurgence....Bandcamp is now producing vinyl! Get ready for a ton more indie music available on vinyl. Be interesting to see what the quality is going to be like.

Absolutely love the energy in this video! The vinyl resurgence is such a testament to the timelessness of analog sound. For anyone looking to dive deeper into creating content around this revival, I highly recommend exploring the best AI tools for video editing. They can really elevate your projects, making your vinyl journey even more visually captivating

AI tools are also transforming the financial industry by making transactions safer and streamlining banking operations. AI-powered fraud detection systems can analyze large amounts of transaction data in real time, identifying unusual or suspicious behavior that could indicate fraudulent activity ai trendy tools. This proactive approach helps prevent fraud before it occurs, protecting both customers and financial institutions. Additionally, AI tools are used in wealth management to provide personalized investment advice. Robo-advisors use algorithms to analyze a client’s financial goals, risk tolerance, and market conditions, allowing them to recommend investment strategies that are tailored to individual needs. This makes financial planning more accessible, even to those who might not have access to a traditional financial advisor.

The vinyl resurgence truly reflects a nostalgia and passion that tech can't replicate. Just like how Ehsaas Program 8171 connects deeply with communities, vinyl revives memories and lasting impact.
