Dust & Grooves Video

I know I am a bit of a broken record when it comes to the rather amazing DustAndGrooves.com vinyl blog, but Eilon Paz is a true vinyl lover, skilled photographer, and now that he’s branched out into video it gives the whole Dust & Grooves experience a new dimension that’s a quite welcome addition. Great stuff and highly recommended. This particular video features a prog collector in Brooklyn, but I’m hoping for many more clips like this from D&G.

Dust And Grooves In Turkey Part II

Eilon Paz, vinyl junkie and photographer extraordinaire, has another post from a visit to Turkey on his most outstanding Dust And Grooves vinyl blog.

Dust And Grooves is a Turntabling favorite–the photos are outstanding, the vinyl discussions are always interesting, and it’s a real anomaly in the world of vinyl blogging. Turntabling’s tagline includes the idea that vinyl is more of a lifestyle rather than a simple format choice, but it has to be said that Dust And Grooves does a MUCH better job of conveying that notion through pictures and interviews.

The album cover pictured to the left is fabulous–want to find a copy of that for the Turntabling Collection. And that’s another thing that’s truly awesome about Dust And Grooves–the vinyl obscurity factor is very, very high. Every time y0u find a new blog post at Dust And Grooves, you can always count on seeing new albums you didn’t know existed, and that’s a wonderful thing.

Dust and Grooves Strikes Again…

One of the best vinyl blogs on the planet (objective, aren’t we?) is the wonderful Dust And Grooves. What’s most excellent about this blog, subject matter aside, is the photography of people and their record collections. Eilon Paz has a great photographic eye and his subjects always look far more artistic than you’d imagine a collection of photographs of vinyl records to be. In short, amazing work.

One of the latest posts at Dust and Grooves features Emek Can Tulus, a record collector based in Istanbul, who had a lot to say about the tactile fun of record collecting in general and about Turkish vinyl in particular. This is some amazing stuff! His collection is nothing short of amazing…and his cat likes it, too. Highly recommended!
