A friend brought over 42 boxed sets of classical, jazz and big band LP's yesterday and GAVE them to me. Most look to be unplayed. There's even a boxed set of country music that begins in the 20's and works by decade through the mid 70's. I'm overwhelmed with the quantity and the need to gather information about what I should keep and listen to and what I should part with. If anyone is an expert in this field and would like to help me figure this out, I would appreciate it. I know nothing about classical music.
I recently returned to my home state of Nebraska and visited Backtrack Records (www.backtrackrecords.com) in person picking up a ton of vinyl. Some of my more favorite finds were "Intensive Care" by Bellson, Brown and Smith (cover art to die for), Fleetwood Mac in Chicago (hard core Chicago blues), a sealed "Dead Man" sound track, a sealed "Stawberry Statement" sound track, a Buddy Holly picture disc and filled in almost every hole in my Neil Young collection. Still trying to find "On The Beach" though.
This is the first time I have done this much shopping for used software. I had read Neil Young's biography "Shakey" which started the ball rolling to finish my collection of his recordings. I guess I got carried away like a kid in a candy store while looking at tens of thousands of quality albums. It's time to go on a "vinyl buying" diet. It was a great way to spend a vacation though.
