Thread: Anybody collect Records? (vinyl)

I don't know if anybody put up a thread like this.. but anybody collect records around here? i wouldn't want to be cliche.. but i love myself some Beatles records. my prize record is a NM butcher cover in mono 2nd state =D Ive only been collecting for about 2 years. I was born in 1989 so a lot of you gentlemen have a good head start on me!

I have a couple of hundred.

I have about a dozen that are quadraphonic.

Yea I have a bunch. A few years ago the local classical music station which has been around since the 1950s switched over to C/Ds and sold their entire record collection. It was a madhouse-open to the public. They sold everything for like a buck or two a records. Many were really collectible pieces from the 1950s and 60s which could probably fetch a few hundred. I got a bunch then. I wish I got more.

I don't collect, just have a lot from my parents and when I was young. Most of the 33s are gone, but probably have 100+ 45s

Yeah, I've got a couple hundred as well. Peanuts compared to some guys' collections. Makes for a good conversation piece when company comes over, though.

PS - Congrats on finding the butcher cover, I've wanted one for years. I do have some original British pressings as a consolation...

That butcher cover could certainly finance quite a few razors.

Yes I do, maybe 1000.

What do you play your records on?

I have a 35 year old Garrard Zero 100 turntable with a Shure V15 Type II stylus.
