Vinyl Find of the Week?

My stepson found a NM Japanese pressing of Pink Floyd's "The Wall" at an antique pavilion for $10. The same thing on eBay with water spots on the cover was going for over $150 at the time.

I also got the Sheffield "King James Version" at this antique pavilion for $3. Since I've been a big band fan all my life, the music isn't cheesy to me, and it's one of the best *sounding* albums I've ever heard.

I got a collaboration of Mel Torme and Buddy Rich direct-2-disc in NM condition for $4 at a record show.

Although they don't have great market value, I find many reissues to be well done. I have the early '70s Columbia reissue of "Kind of Blue." Got it at a record show for $8, and I think I like it better than the 200g Classic Records reissue--a little cleaner and faster sounding. But maybe I need to raise the VTF a little to accommodate the thickness of the 200g pressing.

In classical I like the Columbia reissue series, "Great Performances". I have a Stokowsky of the Bizet Carmen and L'Arlesienne suites and George Szell and the Cleveland Symph that I got at thrift shops for $1 ea. The recording, pressing, and performance quality on these are all excellent.

I just picked up about 500 or more goodwill records for free. London ffrr, Decca. Deutsche Grammophon, His Masters voice RCA, Red Seal - the list goes on and on.

Sinatra, Dino. classical, rock , pop, 7'' vinyl "how to learn English" (with all the native colloquialisms) in just one week. 78 acetates (some home recorded) The history of my local area documented in some of these. Choir music, organ music, Carribbean, Hawaiian. A bit of everything - much more than I could have imagined - even a mint test record. Late 1940's to late 1980's for the most part.

At this point I'm not even sure what I have - but some of it is great old stuff in excellent condition. I don't listen to classical - so These will go to a friend this Christmas. Some albums will be returned.

One question for members please. How do I find out about this stuff?

These arrived in two different batches - and FOR SURE the ones in sleeves are in fantastic condition. The jacketed ones only are not near as good.
