Brag About Your Vinyl Collection

I have a very obscure and rare Keith Jarrett album. Probably only 30,000 were made. In fact it's listed on A'gon right now. I'm willing to let it go for $20.00

;^)

Neat thread. SOme of my favorite obscure albums include
Monk and Trane double record album
Blind Faith MOFI
Lost Gonzo band
Pousette Dart band (county line)
Cashman and West (a song or two)

Not all classics but some of my favorite obscure albums

I have a Helen Sheilds 7 in. EP. A local Indianapolis Band, although noone in the band is named Helen Sheilds. Still looking for any Bitch Head stuff.

VG++/EX version of a Brooks True Blue that some lucky mgh get soon for $2K.But for pure "cool' is my original Jazz West copy of Lawrence Marables "Tenorman".Find the CD or Japan re-issue.Prices have just enraged me lately.I bought the Tenorman for $300 5 years ago.I saw it go for $1200recently.I have many Mosaic collections ( 3 volume 66 LP Commodore is probably mos important-bummer Cuscuna has gone all CD now) but iwht I had bought more before the huge run up in about 2003 when every Korea and German not on Ebay went into collecting just wish I had gotten some BN's and now $800for a Freddy Hubbard "Open Sesame" isn't worth it.One dealer said "Just wait till the Chinese get in on it".So than Gof there's Classic Records and Speakers Corner Etc.But I guess my 3K plus jazz Lp's are my pride and joy.Now I need to broaden to funk,soul and even country and classical I have heretofore ignored.

I have a lot of original Blue Note, original Prestige and other jazz labels from the fifties and sixties. Periodically I go to Ebay to see what they are selling for just for the heck of it. I've seen a couple of them selling for $300-$400. I would never sell any of my vinyl for any reason. My only hope is that my 10 year-old son learns to appreciate this music and this music format one day. When I'm six feet under, I hope my vinyl remains in the family as an heirloom.

......probably won't happen though....my son can't wait to get an Ipod .....
