How do you arrange the order of your records?


I guess some alphabetically. Some by genre. By quality. Etc.
My preference is keeping them randomly arranged. This way I get a nice variety and I don’t have to choose. And it’s always a nice surprise.

I take them out about ten at a time and place them in a dedicated space between my mono blocks.

mike -- if he's there, go about it the right way and start with contemporary Dutch composer Michel van der Aa.

I have categories: rock, jazz, classical, blues, and female vocalist (female vocalist itsis vestigial). I need to disperse this into the main categories). Then alphabetic. I usually know what I feel like hearing, then go to find it. So this system works for me.

400 or so pristine 78s and 1000 or so 33 and 200 45s. Many of the 78s are still in the Book albums. The 33 are in ALL conditions including frisbee and wall art.

3 types of records and I play about 30 albums at the most. I have 10 or 12 I listen to when I listen. Two more years, I retire. I can't wait.

I'm A-Z. My select 30 stay out. I'm playing Linda Ronstadt as I type. I'm lazy, I like a hard drive with a FAT. It sure is quicker.

WHY do I keep going back? It's time for a meeting. VA, Vinyl's Anonymous. I need help. Vinyl deprogramming? I had my 6 month pin a few times. I keep falling off the stoop.

It says something about this forum that this is the most popular post today.
