Going to be selling most of my vinyl collection soon. I will offer them here first of course for members at better prices.
Its all in great nick considering the age etc. A lot of rare titles, and all will be cleaned if needed.
A lot of blues, but jazz as well and various genres like western swing, country folk, oldie Americana etc . Some of these when i did a discogs list, were not even heard about lol. I had to do entries for them.

Im getting too old and infirm for using records all the time, as much as i love em.

So watch this space..... already a section with rare yazoo titles, most you have to bring in from usa.

Sorry the hear you are selling them off, but I suppose we all need to take stock of our own mortality at some stage and selling them off is better than having your kids or someone who duped you in your latter infirm years into leaving them instead of your kids, everything just dumping them in a skip

Will look forward to seeing your lists as you get around to it though ;)

Sorry to read that Grant. Mind you, great as records are it's the music that counts. So if you use streaming, CD's, the radio etc you can still enjoy the music mate.

Good luck with your sales Grant.

Cheers

No I wont digitize Tom. Ive never had much luck doing it, so if there is any I want< will likely get the cd. Probably not many will sell anyways.

Some nice records there - I'm sorry no-one is picking the rest of them up. Unfortunately I already have too many LPs (and CDs) and am resisting adding to the over-stocked library!

Thats no problem Clive. Due to the sq of blues music, its often not high on an audiophile's list. Understandable, that folk want to showcase the equipments capabilities. Probably more Blues/ record collector stuff tbh.
