Post random pics of your CD/vinyl/cassette collection

[Johnny Vodka]

I have a lot of those. Your old boy was a fellow of exceptional taste

He liked his music! Quite a bit of it I would have been dismissive of when I was younger, but (in particular) more interested in jazz now.

It was never going to live up to the gorgeous Marc Bolan...The Power Station, Get It On; I've just checked that out. It fails, for many reasons and is not to be recommended.

The Power Station = Robert Palmer + some members of Duran Duran iirc

I loved Robert Palmer...and Duran Duran of course, being a Brummie
Some great Blues stuff in your Dad's collection

Butterfield Blues Band and Mahavishnu Orchestra. Splendidly cool fusion taste!

Bit of a chassa haul today; 5 for £5 and, as a bonus, the UB40 is proper heavy vinyl and plays like a dream.

I think the 12" Ghost Town is missing its original (picture) sleeve and has a generic replacement, but hey...for a quid.

I can't tell if he's looking at the Fall or Half Man Half Biscuit, or looking at Mogwai on the shelf below:

It's a good record, and believe it or not his first solo release, a year after his passing.

 

[plurker]

Just got this Congo Natty vinyl, and about to squeeze it into the right section

 

[LeytonCatLady]

Found this today for a fiver in All Ages Records, Camden.

Love a bit of King Prawn

Bought today from Flashback Records in Bethnal Green.

Yet, again, the Missy Elliott/Brian Eno section is the most smell-worthy:

Random shelf over my shoulder that really needs sorting out

 

[BassJunkie]

Please excuse the mess.

There are a load of 78s there which I inherited from my Dad. He inherited them from his Dad, who ran a record shop in town.

At some point I keep promising myself I'm going to buy a gramophone so I can give them all a listen, and catalogue them.

That would also provide a genuine opportunity to exclaim "Put A Sock In It!".

78's. Record player you say. I've always lusted after something like this but we really don't have room for ornaments.

 

[Ground Elder]

Please excuse the mess.

I see you're still working your way through the stock of pandemic panic buy loo roll

I've been tempted by a few 78s recently. There are a couple of R&B tunes I'd like that are much easier to find and cheaper on 78 than 45. My decks will play them with a change of cart and some adjustment

DATs?

 

[klang]

I see you're still working your way through the stock of pandemic panic buy loo roll

I love how those speaker stands are not in use

 

[BassJunkie]

DATs?

Pretty much the only thing I don't have. But, you're saying there's another gadget I could buy!?

 

[BassJunkie]

I love how those speaker stands are not in use

There's a long story, just out of shot are a pair of Kef LS50s that go with them.

I'm contemplating converting the living room from 2.1 to 5.1 and using them as the rears.

 

[danski]

I was wondering if I spotted some there.
Just to the left of the buff and shine box.
Looked too short for cassettes.

Ah, yes, I see. Something else for my to do list. They're video tapes from a camcorder which are waiting to be converted.
