Getting ready for a yard sale!

BUT!! I was so happy to have my over 300 vinyl LPs back in my hands again!!

There is just something nostalgic about the soft crackle of the scratches on an old LP playing in the background.

But in my place, I have no idea where I am gonna put all these albums!!help


Then there are the Christmas decorations!! But I do enjoy the old LPs

Anyone else like their old vinal???


Oh....for you younger guys. Vinyl was what we had before cassettes, I mean CDs...oops, I mean MP3srolling on the floor laughing

Nope, sorry don't have any extra cash to loan ya - my car is being repaired, so I'm pretty much tapped out atm.

Anyway, can you build or buy a little shelving unit for them? Maybe you could even find a real cheap one at a yard or garage sale. My uncle has a ton of those old LPs, also - they are in superb condition, for being so old.




cheers

Haha!



Okay then, here's another idea... you could put them in a file folder type book thingy (are you with me?), ya know - with the pocket/sleeve inserts. Or purchase an appropriate size photo album, and slide them in there...


You wouldn't need to put any holes in the walls if you built or bought a unit that is free standing...

Absolutely! My own collection go from the cylinders by the Edison recording through both 45's of the Rock 'n' Roll years from "53 through the 60's and the LP's covering a lot of categories. The oldest disc is from 1908 the record in one-quarter of an inch thick; Dixie sung by a Mabel Garrison in ...Soprano!!It's bizarre and hilarious.... I'm keeping them and hopefully my children will appreciate them or their values...

Shouls also mention some vintage Johnny Cash. Including Ride This Train. I don't think there was a single hit on that album, but I think it is his greatest work

Hey Ship do you have Walmart or Ikea where you live? They have storage bookcases or units that have adjustable shelves so that way when and if you decide to move then you can take them with you. In the meantime you can house the beautiful collection of music.
