    As if SF Sorrow isn't anything but a masterpiece.

    That’s all you got out of this video? That I don’t like SF Sorrow? Haha! The Pretty Things were a truly great Rock’n’roll band. They threw it all away for the LSD fad. SF Sorrow is weird, meandering and wimpy. And they never recovered after that venture. They should’ve left the drug music thing to the Beatles and Pink Floyd. I’m sure you disagree, but I thank you for watching. This is just for fun! Have a great rest of your weekend! Cheers, Jon

    Damn! Missed the stream. Great box of goodies there Jon. Norton has put out fantastic reissues. Loved the needle drops.

    Thanks Southport! Yeah, Norton records was a big influence on a lot of my musical tastes. So many obscure and oddball artists I would have never heard of . Appreciate you watching! Have a great week! Cheers!!!!

    Thanks Jon! I completely missed they were having this sale. Nice to hear a preview of some of before ordering. My Norton collection was mostly just stuff from the Flat Duo Jets and the Lyres...cool to pick up some older classics that I think my wife will even dig. - Scotty

    Awesome Scotty! Unfortunately, a lot of their best stuff is out of print. But pretty much anything they release is something worthwhile. Thanks for watching! Hope you’re doing well! Cheers, Jon

    Hey Paul! So sorry I missed your stream. I saw the thumbnail a few days before and meant to stop by. Been very busy these days. I can only watch a little KZread for now. Yeah, shipping costs are the worst!! We need to come up with a new system of shipping in bulk back and forth across the pond. Have a great week! Cheers!!!

    @@bipbopboom No worries, Jon - appreciate you're busy and I did it at pretty short notice and with no gameplan! Yeah, I wish we could figure out the shipping costs thing! Does Norton even ship to the UK? Look forward to your next upload. Cheers, Paul

    Thanks Jon, i just went ahead and bought a bunch of records in this sale. I snagged that Dion record and the Pretty Things ep with Rosalyn, as well as a handful from Norton/Sun series with a different artist on each side. Great deals, i appreciate the heads up on this sale! I only had a handful of Nortons in the collection prior. Thanks, Brian

    Hey Brian! Thank you for watching! Glad you dug some of the stuff. I know a lot of these oddball tunes aren’t up most people’s alley! Haha! But they’re fun to spin! I hope you dig that Dion lp as much as me. Either way it’s a steal at that price! Those Sun releases they did are excellent. You get two A- sides on each one!! So good!! Thanks again! Have a great week Brian! Cheers!!!

    I only have issues with scratchy records when the scratches are as loud or louder than the music. I'm getting a big box of 45s today and it will be a surprise what I get. This guy sends a massive email list. I pick what I want and then prioritize them. I pay for all of them. He does his best to give me everything I want and sends a check for what he can't fill. I've got great stuff in the past so I can't wait to see what shows up. My wife had some experience with Kim Fowley but she doesn't talk about those times of her life. I can only guess why.

    That’s great Ed!! Sounds like a lot of fun and a great way to buy 45s!! Hopefully you get some gems!! I prefer not to know every record I buy beforehand. I love putting on a single I took a chance on. Some are winners, some are losers! Yeah, no need to bring up Kim Fowley. The guy was a creep. Thanks for watching Ed! Have a great week and good luck with the 45s! Cheers!!

    Some great single...can't go wrong with Gene Vincent. Really dug the Tico and the Triumphs. The Oriental thing is pretty funny, because Asians here in the US are super offended by it, Japanese and Chinese record collectors eat that stuff up, they love it. Not sure about the Koreans, don't know any that are collectors, but in Japan those singles are super sought after.

    Hey Steve! Thanks for dropping by! Yeah, that Asian stuff is tough. It’s not overtly racist or mean spirited. Definitely insensitive caricatures mixed with clueless bands trying to sound exotic. I have an LP compilation of that stuff that the shop owner gave me for free. He said just take it out if the store before someone complains. It’s mostly instrumentals. There is a really cool boot CD of all the early Simon and Garfunkel incarnations and bands from the fifties to early sixties that has some genuine excellent RnR tracks. They were talented. Thanks again! Cheers!!
