Hey man, that was great. I especially liked your Cosby comments. I was digging awhile back and picked up a Cosby Show LP with Grover Washington Jr., a fave of mine. Also, I wanted to know where a fellow vinyl head could cop a T-shirt like yours. Too dope! Cheers!

[mrhoffame]

@djhussa1 LOL Thanks man. I got that T shirt at some record store in Chicago. Can't remember the name of it. I know they do sell them online too.

[LPGuy1991]

AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!! :D

[dereckvon]

I love when you said "for all you youngsters out there"!

[mrhoffame]

@dereckvon Yeah, a lot of the "youngins" today have no idea what real music is about or where it came. I kind of feel one of the purposes of the VC is for us to educate them lol. Let them know NE YO and Rhianna (or however you spell her name) is not what R&B is really about lol. But you know..it's music right? So to each his own.

Great to hear from you D man! CANT WAIT TO GET YOUR LP!!!!!

[dereckvon]

@mrhoffame You and me both!

[stephievon]

@dereckvon me too!

Joss Stone is from near where i live. There's a venue here called 'mama stones', its her Mum's venue. Its a shame though because the venue its ridiculously priced, you have to pay for a table there, they wont put on bands who are heavy in anyway. Her mum like uses her daughters fame to big herself up. Its a shame really. What is 'SEAL' like? I saw an LP in a shop for £1.50 still in the shrink wrap. Cheers. Joe.

[mrhoffame]

@Joespencer92 Seal in incredible. I think he is one of those artist that people LOVE or HATE. Songs I suggest checking out...Killers, Crazy, Touch, Let Me Roll, Don't Cry, Dream In Metaphors, Just like you said, and Loves Divine.  That will give you a good feel for who is. Cool story about Josh. Have you ever met her?

[Joespencer92]

@mrhoffame Well in that case if its there when i am next in i shall check out the LP, its super cheap too so will be worth it regardless. Her name is actually pronounced 'Joss'. 'Josh' is a boys name lol im not sure if its a common name over in the US. I havent ever met her no, her music isnt really my cup of tea, she makes some great music though i have to admire her for that. Cheers. Joe.

[mrhoffame]

@Joespencer92 Sorry, I don't type very well lol

[Joespencer92]

[stephievon]

[mrhoffame]

@stephievon Thanks again lol I try lol

[BASSLINE06]

It's funny u picked Sade and the Tcha picked Maxwell's 1st album. Both of those artists are connected cause members of Sade worked on Maxwell's Album. Sweetback actually or Matthew Stuart.

[mrhoffame]

@BASSLINE06 Thanks so much for watching!

What I love about the "The Last American Virgin" soundtrack is that there are songs on that album and in that film that were well known, you know? Unlike most soundtracks from the era.

I would of thought you were gonna show some AC/DC here ;)

[mrhoffame]

@vinylated I guess the song Ride On by AC/DC could be considered a bit romantic lol You are right about that LA Virgin Sdtk. I mean Lionel, Journey (open arms), REO (keep on lovin' you)...that soundtrack was 80's love heaven. Even the upbeat stuff like the Cars Shake It up and ..."I know what boys like..I know what guys wants"...lol. That movie was my introduction to The Waitresses too lol

[vinylated]

@mrhoffame Yeah, with AC/DC "Let me put my love into you" would be of been a good one. But the knife references? I don't know lol.

I think we just have to be honest here... "I can't get over loving you" by Ray Parker Jr is the winner here. You got to stalk or obsess over the one you LOVE lol. You know that!! ;)

Said it before and I'll say it again, we're too alike hehe. Be seeing you real soon bruv!

[mrhoffame]

@vinylated LOL I agree. That Ray Parker song is kind of like Every Breath You Take by the Police. It sounds and feels romantic but when you listen to the lyrics you start to understand they are totally psycho. I love that part line at the end of the Ray Parker jr song where throughout the song he says "I still can't get over lovin' you" , but at the end he throws in " I still can't get over...I ain't through lovin' you". That is creepy lol

[vinylated]

@mrhoffame Imagine... a "Better off Dead" scenario, okay? You've got the girl alone in the restaurant, instead of breaking out the Sax you excuse yourself to put on that record. You sit down, say nothing and stare longingly into her eyes. I bet you any money by the end of the night you'd realise the only date you went on was one with YOURSELF hahaha. Poor Ray, still the man had a winning smile ;)

[jbonefilms]

wow 3 vids in one day i love it!!! nice response my friend!

[mrhoffame]

@jbonefilms I'm trying lol  Thanks for watching
