Concert Buddie x Spinz Vinyl | Collecting Like You've Never Seen: Wayne Johnson of Rockaway Records 50:26

πριν 9 μέρες50:26

50:26

Welcome back Buddies! For this latest 'sode on Vinyl Community Podcasts , we have a guest and a conversation so rare, so valuable, so unique, that we had to enlist another host to reign in this collecting madness! Joined in the co-pilot seat by Spinz Vinyl (Jason), we speak with Wayne Johnson: co-owner and co-founder of Rockaway Records in Silver Lake, CA. Founded alongside brother Gary Johnson in 1979, Rockaway has seen the peaks, valleys, and rebirth of music on vinyl, while also growing, shrinking, and pivoting their business in various forms along the way. What once was the largest store in the Los Angeles area, Rockaway has diversified their focus to not only include the rarest of vinyl recordings, but also pieces of memorabilia that can only be dreamed about. We are talking much more than a Beatles' "Butcher" covers here: think BIGGER...think RARER....think UNBELIEVABLE pieces, unreal stories, and customers that would make the Rock 'n Roll Hall of Fame Museum blush: Jimmy Page, Steven Tyler, Robert Plant, Chris Robinson, and other music loyalty. Even Lucinda Williams once worked at this legendary store! We are talking items that the public rarely gets to see, with access and the ability to provide a revolving inventory that not few stores can compete with. Also in the conversation Wayne shares some great advice for those considering seriously purchasing unique vinyl or memorabilia, gives his thoughts on the emerging "slabbing" of vinyl, and offers his opinions on auction house buys and sourcing today versus 10, 15, 30, and even 45 years ago at the beginning of his journey. It's a fun walk down memory lane, and one you will find here RIGHT NOW on Vinyl Community Podcasts ! Walk with us! 🎧 👇 👇 👇 👇 👇 For more information on guest Wayne Johnson | Rockaway Records: https://rockaway.com IG: https://www.instagram.com/rockawayrecords For more on co-host Concert Buddie: https://www.youtube.com/@ConcertBuddie https://concertbuddie.com For more on co-host Spinz Vinyl: https://www.youtube.com/@spinzvinyl?sub_confirmation=1 IG: https://www.instagram.com/spinz.vinyl For more information on Vinyl Community Podcasts: https://vinylcommunitypodcasts.com . . . . .

The Waxed is back on Vinyl Community Podcasts to share a new interview from his Thursday morning livestream with Craig Crane, the owner of Analogue October Records in Chichester, England. Craig is a self-described crusader for the warmth of analog in a sea of digital detachment. "With a steadfast dedication to vinyl records, cassette tapes, and the cherished memories they evoke, he champions the cause of the authentic, the cherished, and the timeless. Amid the convenience of digital streaming, his store stands as a bastion for the physical, a haven where the crackle of a record and the tactile joy of flipping a cassette side reign supreme. Yet, he navigates the balance between analog passion and the digital era, occasionally embracing the pristine sounds of CDs and SACDs....In a world quick to forget the value of the past, he operates beyond the mainstream, ensuring that the spirit of music's golden ages remains alive and accessible for all who seek refuge from the relentless advance of the digital domain" Hear firsthand the efforts involved in operating a physical store + global online marketplace for music fans around the world, information on new releases, running his own record label of often overlooked music marvels, and the work invested in procuring and obtaining music for his customers. Joining the discussion are regulars to The Waxed's regular Tuesday & Thursday morning livestreams: Jim Kaplan from Record Collector News and Norman Maslov. 👇 For more information on Craig Crane and Analogue October Records: https://www.analogueoctober.com IG: https://www.instagram.com/analogueoctoberrecords 👇 For more information on The Waxed: https://www.youtube.com/@theboomerscalper IG: https://www.instagram.com/the_waxed_vc Livestreaming each Tuesday and Thursday morning at 10am EST/7am PST 👇 For more information on Jim Kaplan & Record Collector News: https://recordcollectornews.com IG: https://www.instagram.com/recordcollectornews 👇 For more on Norman Maslov: https://www.youtube.com/@mazzysmusic IG: https://www.instagram.com/mazzys_music 👇👇👇 . . . 🔔 For more information on Vinyl Community Podcasts: https://vinylcommunitypodcasts.com…
