Going through some boxes and found a bunch of LP'S(records) mainly from the mid 70"s--Came across a 5 LPset from 1986(my sister -in -law gave it to me as a Christmas Gift)I never played it--Bruce Springsteen &the E Street Band Live /1975-85 no turntable now-just wondering who else has a hoard of albums just taking up space?keep on cruising -Dave.

I still have some lp's need a new needle for my turn table but I still love to listen to vinyl. I wish I had all the lp's that were stolen out of my apartment years ago, they took over 250 of them some I will never find again.

As far as sound nothing beats a lp

I have quite a few going back to the 60's! :thumbsup:
Have about 300 45's too!:)

Bunches... I'll never get rid of them:noway:

I have over 3,000 of them black things. Wife keeps threatening to throw them out. I just laugh at her. Keep on spinin'.

A couple hundred or so here. I still listen to some of them that I could never find on CD.

Got a bunch. I make it a point to thumb through them at thrift shops.

I have a couple hundred. I also have 75 to 100 78 rpm records for my Edison record player.

Still have several hundred 33's and about 200 45's. Some date back to the 50's (my mom was a music nut!). Also have a few 78's kicking around. Just can't bear to part with them and when the mood strikes, I still crank up some of that good ole rock and roll from the late 60's! I'll never get used to the stuff my kids like but it is amazing how much of MY music they really like. I guess good stuff never goes out of style...kinda like Chevelles!

Yep, lots of 'um! Both 45s and 33s. LOTS of EARLY Elvis 45s!!!!
I gave away all my 78s (kids albums from the late 40s-early 50s) when I got to big for them in the mid 50s (in Jr Hi/Hi school then).
The ONLY reason that I never play the 45s/33s is because I no longer have a turntable/stereo to play them.

I have a bunch of LP's also. I prefer them over CD's actually. I have every Metallica album on vinyl, and am working on completing my REM collection. I also have some of the original Beatles albums. I usually pick one and play it on those nights where you really don't feel like watching TV, but just sit around and chat for the evening.

I have about 500 Lps mostly Elvis and the older type of rock, beatles , rolling stones ETC. I also have probably 200 of the 45 RPMs but I really have gotten spoiled with CDs they are so much easier to use.

Got a bunch here but certainly not hundreds. I do, however, have almost 100 old Edison records (the cylinders) and a player - they are a trip to listen to!

Between the wife and I we have about 500 albums with most of them dating between the 60's-80's. Our oldest daughter (17) who is into nostalgia has been finding a few at garage and yard sales and she's got about 50 or so but hers are older stuff than ours. She likes old big band swing stuff.

I have a couple hunderd albums and love to play them now and again. :D

I still got My Falco LP, does that count?:hurray:








:D

I have around 500 of them, the best part of that is my 16 year old son discovered all my vinyl, the bad part is I'm starting to get a little tired of Pink Floyd at high db's coming from the basement. some of them over and over and you get my drift :thumbsup:


Rocky

Lots and buy them for a quarter at yard sales. Look for 60-70 rock and old jazz and r&b.

I took a bunch that were not avail as CD's and made my own CD's.... all you need is a turntable, an amp of some sort and then into the computer.... I used 'Clickit' to remove all of the hiss and scratch/pop noises - re configured the sound into a wav file (compressed) and it worked fine.

Did ya know that Bill Cosby made an album?

Not the comedy - he sings!

(And not a bad singer either...)

I am in same boat I need a new needle/stylist and drive belt for my Garrard (spelling??) lab series turntable. right now I have other things i am spending money on.
about 100 LP and about 75 or so 45s from the 60s and 70s in my collection

I have maybe 10 LPs. My turntable still works and I drag it out every now and then to listen to the vinyl :) . Nothing beats the "warmth" or "depth" of sound that LP's have. My dad has a great collection of 60s and 70s rock albums. Not sure if his turntable works anymore though.

I still have about 600-700 of them.

I have several hundred of them and haven't even thought of playing one in many years. I do have a turntable and my wife wants me to get it up and running to be able to play some LPs. I kinda adjust with the times. CDs and now Ipods (we all have them) and I have an FM transmitter to play it in the car.

I only have a few (maybe 15-20)... I picked up 7-10 AC/DC albums at a garage sale for $1 (total for the set)... Not perfect vinyl & not perfect covers, but still cool... I think most of my others are AC/DC too... I guess those were the only ones I kept...

My turntable needs a new needle/cartridge, and now I need a stereo too...

I've got a few dozen. I listen to music on my turntable every week!

I listen mostly to new stuff though. Slipknot, children of bodom, pulp fiction soundtrack, opeth. I have a lot of older stuff too, but i really only listen to the new stuff. I think i have almost all of the beetles albums. one of my favorites is bob segar.

OVER 4500 OF THEM + 45'S(WAS A D.J.)

long road of burning to c/d's ahead of me some day...

Some iPod commercial comes to mind...

Some iPod commercial comes to mind...

it be nice if they made one with changeble harddrive-cartriges...
that way I could have 1 ipod and hard drives it plug into it for each gender..
60's/70's/light rock/hard rock/big band/country/metal/dance/pop/etc,etc,etc.

I have a few dozen from the '70's. Rarely play any but just can't throw them or the turntable out.

Have between 700-800 here.Lots of heavy metal,rock n roll,old punk,with a little country and odd stuff,some Sinatra.Try to play at least one a week,the kids think they're neat.Years ago I had a bunch that got stolen,would've put it close to 1,000.I think I like the sound better than c.d.s,but have many more of those than l.p.s.

I still have a "Peaches" peach crate full of vinyl and a Peach crate that isn't put together yet. I remember purchasing those crates in Milwaukee, WI when I was through there on a trip in about 1980 or '81.

They came unassembled..........remember??

Got mine at Schultz Brothers in Portage Wi.! Yep, had to assemble them!:thumbsup:

Have all of mine , still use them all the time, love the analog sound. Now my parents should never have given me a bb gun and their 45 collection. I would see how many 45's I could go through with different amount of pumps on the gun.We are talking Sun 45's , Elvis, Jerry Lee, I know they are worth something now, back in the 70's who cared.

About 10 years ago, I weeded out maybe a third to a quarter of mine, but I still have between 250-275. Mostly stuff from the mid-60s to the early 80s. Paid I think $400 for an audiophile turntable (a Linn Basik) between 15 and 20 years ago since the quality of the audio source can never be improved downstream by a good amp, speakers, etc - it is what it is.

I've got all my 80's records (Van Halen, Beastie Boys...) plus my sister's 80's Europop (Depeche Mode, Thompson Twins...) plus my parents' crazy mix of showtunes, Sinatra, Beatles, classical, classic country...

My record player bit the dust during my last move, but I got another one for Christmas last year! You can still get one at Best Buy pretty cheap...

I still got My Falco LP, does that count?:hurray:
:D

I have one of these too. I won an EP of "Rock me Amadeus" as a door prize at a high school dance.

I have around 500 or so from 60's-90's.
I really enjoy vinyl. I am made a lot of my own CD's already but have not put my turntable back together from when we moved so they are all still in boxes.

I have some LP frames and have a lot of the car themed LP's in them. Some of the cover art or photos are really cool.

I was reading that they make a turntable that does not use a needle but some form of a laser to read the vinyl. I was thinking of spending the money to get one of those but I have not seen much about them and I don't think a Circuit City or Best Buy would have it. Would need to go to a higher end electronics store I would think.

:D

If you weren't as big as you are, I might have had to smack you for that one...;)



ATTN.- NEEDLES... I have this great shop in Seattle that carries 100's of replacement needles. If anyone needs help finding one PM me and I'll see if I can help you out. I also listen to records several times a week.

Have a couple hundred, working turntables, too.

Anyone have reel to reels? Got three and a bunch of tapes.

Stalkingbear,Mike,helped me with trying to get set up to convert my l.p.s to c.d,following some of his links I stumbled across a tutorial,thought I'd put up a link for anyone else who is interested in the conversion.

I started collecting 45's back in 1957-58 after my older Brother gave me this Elvis, Platters, Satins and a bunch of Doo-Wopp records. I how have around 3,500 45's(50s & 60's- some 70&80s) and about 650 LP's( loads of Elvis, Beatles & Stones).
I haven't collected in over 12 years now and the collection is all neatly and safely stored away in my garage....... just waiting for me to die so my wife can chuck them into a DUMPSTER along with my die-cast collection after I'm gone.
................. It's a cruel world :sad:
