Classic Vinyl Records

Are Bright Eyes Like Pink Floyd?

I never listen to new music, classic rock guy, but I was at a local record store looking at vinyls and noticed the Cassadaga album. So I asked the guy about it and he said it was kind of trippy. Are they anything alike? If not, are there any other opera-rock bands? Thanks.

record store in the south florida area?

does anybody know of a place where I can buy some classic rock lp’s in the south florida area- basically from Fort Lauderdale to Palm Beach Gardens. I really want to fond some classic rosk vinyls like the who, beatles, neil diamond, and led zeppelin. thanks in advance

Know where I can get a Victrola/ quality replica?

I’m new to the vinyl scene and fell in love with the sound and look of early victrola “his master’s voice” record players and wondered after trolling ebay and phonophan.com where else there may be for a geek like me to find a working victrola or replica, not a floor model though! I’m having a suprisingly hard time finding one, and I’m most definitly on a budget :3 And any other record, phonograph, graphophone, and classic music/ LP resources are SO appreciated!
Thanks!

Anyone know what old vinyl Christmas Album this is?

My mother is looking for an old album she used to have of classic Christmas songs. She says it was a country styled album and believes the front of the record sleeve had a country-type winter picture.

Two of the songs she is sure it had on there were:

Wait for the Waggon
and a song that goes something like: “on December 5 & 20″

We think, but we’re not sure if it would be the album:

Rudolph The Red Nosed Reindeer by Tex Johnson and His Six Shooters… but this is the only info we could find on it:

produced by Pirouette and has a pink label, has a light blue and silver cover, and is a 3D “stereophonic recording.” Below are the songs in order:
*Side A
Rudolph The Red Nosed Reindeer
When Santa Claus Gets Your Letter
Fum Fum Fum
Wait For The Wagon (On Christmas Day)
I Heard The Bells On Christmas Day
Cheyenne
*Side B
A Merry Christmas To You
Pride Of The Prairie Mary
The Night Before Christmas Song
San Antonio
Just As The Sun Went Down
Go Tell It On The Mountain

Can anyone give any insight on to what album she could be thinking of…or would this Tex Johnson album be it? (if it is, anyone know where we can find it?…I’ve heard it’s on CD)
Ok, I found out that this IS the record my mom was thinking of. However, the record was released under 2 different names on 2 different labels…

The first one was:
“Rudolph The Red Nosed Reindeer,” by: Tex Johnson and His Six Shooters (Pirouette label)

and then it was re-released on vinyl as well, again under this name:

“Western Christmas,” by: Cactus Jim and the Wranglers (Diplomat label)

I figure most people don’t know that these two records are the same, considering everyone talks about their memories with the Tex Johnson album, while it is kinda hard to find…however, the Cactus Jim album is easier to find on places such as Ebay and Amazon in the $13-$40 range.

***Now my question is simply: Does anyone know where we can get either one of these albums (since they are the same) on CD or Cassette tape? I’d rather have it on one of those formats instead of vinyl (vinyl being the last resort)…CD being my top choice, but cassette is easier to transfer with better sound quality.

Classic Country fans: Is this wish list on CD anywhere?

The short list as of right now:

1. Woman Your Love by Moe Bandy
2. Fantasy by Mac Davis
3. Slow Boat To China and Walk Me In The Rain by The Girls Next Door
4. Still Hurtin’ Me by Charlie Daniels Band
5. Touch Me With Magic – NOT THE LIVE VERSION by Marty Robbins
6. Anything by Tommy Overstreet or Roy Clark – seems the Dot stuff is really hard to find if it exists at all.

There are plenty of others. This stuff isn’t on iTunes, or if it is, it seems like it’s always a watered down, re-recorded or K-Tel-ized version. Any thoughts? I have all this on vinyl. Maybe there’s a way to digitize that stuff into the computer from there.
