19 feet of 12" vinyl. about 1,300.
10 feet of CDs. (300?) a few more in the car
only 2 feet of 45s and 78s
cassettes? mixtapes? reel to reel? a few boxes
I have started culling them, but it's hard. I gave some to my niece and sold a few, but at this rate it's going to take forever.
What are you rules for culling records? If I haven't played it for 10 years, it should probably go. If it doesn't light a spark in my brain, it should probably go. But it's painful.
Some of them I know I'll keep until I'm dead. Mingus, Ellington, Zappa, Gerald Wilson, Oliver Nelson, Prokofiev, Blues.
Others I'm sort of blah about. The ones I already gave away are Ronstadt, Jethro Tull (except the first one), Elton John. I like some of it, but I've got much better.
How do people go to desert islands with only five?
