The Vinyl Guide is a weekly podcast for fans and collectors of vinyl records. Each week is an audio-documentary on your favourite records, often including interviews with band members and people who were part of the project.
It’s hosted by Nate Goyer, a self-described vinyl maniac who enjoys listening to records and sharing the stories behind them. Despite his Yankee accent, Nate lives in Sydney, Australia with his wife, 2 kids, and about 1,500 records. (But only about 1,000 of them his wife knows about.)
The Vinyl Guide takes records one by one, telling the tale of how they came to be, why the work is important, and then shares how collectors can tell one pressing from another. Learn more at the TheVinylGuide.com or simply subscribe via iTunes or RSS feed.
This week, we have Chris Robinson formerly of The Black Crowes and now with the Chris Robinson Brotherhood and we’re talking about his history, his music, and of course his massive record collection. Chris is quite the vinyl collector and can’t seem to stay out of record stores while on tour. Check out the new LP If You Lived Here, You Would Be Home By Now available here, as well as the tour dates for the Chris Robinson Brotherhood.
And this week we also plunder through the new Record Store Day Black Friday release list. Lots of stuff there—mark your calendars for Friday November 25!
