Well, hey everyone, welcome back to another episode of The Vinyl Guide, the podcast where we talk to the

artists behind the records, we love and collect. And this week we have on the show, Tom Timony,

a man of many talents and careers, and at one point was the general director and owner of Ralph Records,

the infamous record label that was home to many artists and primarily known for

the residents. Now, Ralph Records was a record label run like no other, and today Tom is going to

share with us the amazing tales of the times, the rare vinyl pressings and the stories behind them,

and the marketing or anti-marketing approach of the records released on Ralph. And I must say I have many releases

on Ralph Records. Each one is unique. However, the one thing they have in common, I clean

them with my groove washer record cleaning kit. The groove washer was designed with the record

hobbyist in mind. Their G2 fluid is perfect for getting deep into the record grooves and helping

your vinyl sound

its tip-toppiest.

Now, Groove washer cleaning kits start at only $12 at Groovewasher.com, or you can get

a bundle with a few other record cleaning products for the ultimate bang for your record

cleaning buck.

And with that, let's get into today's

episode featuring the tales from Tom Timney and his time with Ralph Records. Do you listen to

and collect vinyl records? Well, you're in luck. Welcome to the vinyl guide, the podcast made
