Concert Buddie | Mind of The Record Collector: Melinda Murphy
Wednesday Feb 28, 2024
Wednesday Feb 28, 2024
Great people just walked through the door! Hey Buddies, back again with another 'sode of my series on Vinyl Community Podcasts titled Mind of The Record Collector. This spin around the turntable I'm joined by one of the best Vinyl Community members on YouTube, Melinda Murphy. One of the reasons I started my own YouTube channel was from watching Melinda stand hers up, how she treats her audience, and the great job she does sharing the journey of building her record collection. We touch on all of that, plus what made her start her channel in the first place. To close out the chat Melinda sits in the (kind of) hot seat for a set of fun lightning round questions. What are you waiting for? This episode starts NOW!

Concert Buddie | "Jazz Curious" Roundtable
Monday Feb 26, 2024
Monday Feb 26, 2024
Welcome back for another pod-exclusive 'sode here on Vinyl Community Podcasts. This time we approach the genre of jazz from a different point of view. Fueled by a jazz reissue renaissance the past few years, many experienced and newer collectors alike are getting into the genre at their own speed. That opens up some key questions for many of us: What is it like slowly dipping your toes into this genre? Where are good places/sources to learn about it? And where should someone who is new to the genre begin their journey? Most of our panel for this show finds ourselves in a similar boat. Joined by Patrick (pbthal), Arnaldo (fidelios_frequency), Louie Golden, and Rocco Richardson (Pieces of Vinyl), we share our own experiences in gently building our knowledge base and collections with this diverse genre. Topics covered here include:
(1) How Did Jazz Enter Your Life (and Your Collection)?
(2) Why Jazz, Why Now: What is Driving People to Jazz Today?
(3) Barriers to Entry to Those New to Jazz?
(4) Best Recommendations to Someone Just Starting Out?
A lot of good information sharing in this pod-exclusive chat, here on Vinyl Community Podcasts! Tell us what you think!

Concert Buddie | Talking Pearl Jam: New Album, Tour, and What is a Jammer?
Thursday Feb 22, 2024
Thursday Feb 22, 2024
Spin the Black Circle, Buddies! This pod-only exclusive features a conversation on (arguably) the last great American rock band - Pearl Jam. Joined by two other fans in Vance (zeppearl) and Jason Arsenault, we talk about the anticipation building for the new album DARK MATTER out April 19th, the exclusive release for #recordstoreday the following day, the new tour hitting several cities in the US and abroad, and a few other band rabbit holes that popped up during the chat. We promise, no Eddie Vedder impressions were recorded during this 'sode (I think). Jump on in, the water is warm, for this latest episode on Vinyl Community Podcasts!

Surface Noise | Definitely Talking the Record Store Day 2024 List - Out NOW!
Friday Feb 16, 2024
Friday Feb 16, 2024
Yo! The Record Store Day 2024 list is out! Hear our takes (good, bad, and in between) and what does RSD do right, and not so right. Is getting up early and waiting in line with other feverish collectors worth the squeeze for this year's offerings? Joined per usual by Jason Roxas, Arnaldo (fidelios_frequency), Jose Moreno Rahn, and back for another success spin is Jason Elwood (Spinz Vinyl). After the RSD talk dies down, we tackle another topic: how much "influence" can channels in the Vinyl Community have when it comes to paid promotion versus direct reviews, and does any of this "influence" fuel the FOMO that has infected the hobby the past few years. All in all, a productive show (the freestyle after, on the other hand...whoa nelly). Tune in, tune out, and bring on this latest 'sode of SURFACE NOISE - NOW!!
