Den's Record Thread - How many records did Den or NES_Rules buy today?

[den68]

a good chunk of it is probably stuff I wouldn't even want.

and the no need to hunt anymore factor is a huge reason not to buy it. the hunt is main reason I collect anything.

[NES_Rules]

a good chunk of it is probably stuff I wouldn't even want.

Definitely. I only collect Rock, and sure, I could sell off everything that I don't want, but that would be SO much work.
And the seller says it would make a good museum. I don't really think it would, mass amounts of records just don't look that amazing on shelves.

[den68]

I can't even make myself sell off  the hundred or so doubles I have of video games.

[Tynstar]

It would be for a museum.  I would never really care to have all that but it sure would be neat. Thats a lot of history. Lots of stuff that will never be redone on to a new format.

[NES_Rules]

I was flipping through a box of records that I've been trying to sell, all junk that I've picked up with the good stuff. Or so I thought it was all junk. For some reason, I never listened to the Ozark Mountain Daredevils album, but I did today, and it was pretty good, I'll definitely be keeping it. It's a southern sounding band similar to Skynyrd but slightly less Rock. They have a pretty unique sound and I'll definitely be looking for more of their records in the future.

Last week, I picked up about 30 classic rock records from our neighbor's yard sale. Total price: free!! A lot of them are in quite good condition, but a few are in 'I will not put that on my turntable!' shape. Even a couple of beatles records. I'll edit this with a complete list in a little while...

[NES_Rules]

Very nice haul today, they're not in the best condition, but it all looks playable.
For $4:
Rush - 2112
The Who -who are you
cars - candy-o
Led Zeppelin - III (That's got to be one of the sweetest covers, ever!)
The tubes - T.R.A.S.H. (Never heard of 'em before)
Kansas - two for the show
Elton John - Blue Moves
Sweet - desolation boulevard
George Carlin - take offs and put ons

Nazareth - hair of the dog

foghat - Live
Styx - II
the greatest of the guess who
queen - greatest hits
doobie bros - the captain and me
foghat - energized
foghat - stone blue

He had a couple hundred more, but I left them because I had most of them and the others were in just too bad of shape.

Also, I got this really nice record player for free.

So someone gave her this one, I'm keeping it and I'll give my mom another (cheap) one that I have.
She also had a bunch of records that she was going to give me because "no one wants this stuff these days" until some idiot told her she could sell them on eBay. So it looks like they'll be going to eBay. Hopefully, she'll decide it's not worth the trouble and give (or sell cheaply) them to me instead.

[Fuyukaze]

All the records listed and the one thing that interests me is the record player.  Then again, having a small collection of clasical music, I've already got stuff I'd want to listen to.  Just need to get lucky and find someone selling something to play it on.

Wow, I forgot all about this thread, I miss posting in it
Nice find Rob. Some VERY good stuff in there. Especially the Badfinger 45, their stuff is pretty hard to find anymore, very under appreciated group IMO.

[den68]

whoa. I haven't posted in this thread in a LONG time, and I have stll beem picking up records.

nice find! Beatles stuff is hard to come by. Did your Sgt. Peppers still have the paper cutouts insert? I still wish I hadn't cut mine out as a kid.

[Izret101]

I was wondering if you guys has stopped picking vinyl up.
