Wonderful

Mile High Vinyl went above and beyond in fulfiling my vinyl record order. They actually looked at my order and made sure that the albums they would ship were to their standards. They definitely were! I have enjoyed each one. If you are looking for a great selection of music, put a few hours aside and visit their website. You will not be disappointed!

last ever release by rick nelson

I was totally unaware of this album until a few weeks ago. It was released posthumously but some overdubbing done before its release.It's a solid album any way you look at it, a good mix of well known covers with a smattering of Rick's own songs. To really enjoy anything by Rick Nelson, I think you have to be a fan to begin with as some songs are just fairly good while others great. I enjoyed it immensely. Once again the service was great. I received the vinyl album in the mail just three days after it was mailed. Perfect condition. Exciting stuff all this returning to vinyl, as that's how I grew up. Love it.

Loverboy - Lovin' Every Minute Of It (Cass, Album) (Near Mint (NM or M-))

Late period Rick Nelson

I have just bought two vinyl Rick Nelson albums from Mile High Vinyl. They were beautifully packaged and mailed and arrived in record time (no pun intended).
I can only assume they are recent re-pressings as they are in mint condition.
Jeremy is a very conscientious and reliable person to deal with and is most eager to provide the best possible customer service.
I look forward to acquiring more vinyl albums from him.
