Vinyl Haul! Rare Rock Records, Lost Gems, and That $45 Black Sabbath Pressing

Description:
In this episode, Robert John Hadfield (@audiomover) takes us on a deep, passionate, and often hilarious journey through his most recent vinyl haul—featuring records snagged from five Denver record stores. From legendary albums to forgotten gems, Robert shares not just the what—but the why—behind each pickup, diving into personal stories, band trivia, and rock history that shaped these records.

🔸 Ever wonder who originally wrote "Rainbow’s Gold"—the song Iron Maiden covered?
🔸 Remember Rainbow’s last album with Joe Lynn Turner?
🔸 Curious why Robert calls the Paranoid album cover “one of the worst ever”?

You’ll get all that and more in this rock ‘n’ roll treasure chest of a video. Plus: stories about 80s cover bands, lost picture discs, haunting album art, and a hometown legend, Tommy Bolin.

👇 Drop your vinyl memories in the comments and let us know which album was your favorite growing up!
