Pacific Northwest Record Hunt, Part 2: Records By Mail in Portland

Part two of my Pacific Northwest record hunt, and this one is not a record store. Records By Mail is a private dealer in Portland, Oregon, packed floor to ceiling with records. I’ve been buying from them for about thirty years, but this was the first time I actually went there in person. I walked in with a list, they pulled the records, and I came out with Northwest rock, psych, hard rock, Jesus rock, garage comps, a few upgrades, and one LA hard psych record that snuck into the pile. Records in this video include Donnie & Joe Emerson, Zipper, California Poppy Pickers, Wilson McKinley, Grand Theft, Houston Fearless, Moses Lake / The Bards, The Frantics, History Of Northwest Rock Vol. III, and Rail. 00:00 The warehouse I promised you 00:22 Records By Mail 01:14 Donnie & Joe Emerson - Dreamin’ Wild, sealed upgrade 03:41 Zipper, Fred Cole before Dead Moon 06:01 California Poppy Pickers - Honky Tonk Women 08:20 Wilson McKinley - Jesus People’s Army 10:21 Grand Theft - It’s Eating Me Alive 11:26 Houston Fearless, the one LA record 14:11 Moses Lake, which is really The Bards 16:13 The Frantics - Fog Cutter 17:37 The History Of Northwest Rock Vol. III 20:27 Rail, and the last one I needed 22:37 Why you should buy from Records By Mail direct 23:11 Next up, Crossroads and a Sonics holy grail 23:41 Close Records By Mail: https://www.recordsbymail.com/ Videos mentioned: Donnie & Joe Emerson - Dreamin’ Wild full RIP https://youtu.be/ZhbPh4lvH5Y Lollipop Shoppe / Zipper livestream: https://youtube.com/live/96Eg8ymOlZo Wilson McKinley - Heaven’s Gonna Be A Blast!
