Thx to all that have responded! This idea of posting what I play came indirectly from my wife. I had purchased about 60 albums from an early spring garage sale and she said you plan on opening a record store? Obviously 1000+ albums does not make a record store but to a non audiophile its about 900 albums you don’t need. This made me think how many albums is to many and how long would it take to play all of them? In 7 months twice a week(a few missed days) 6-8 albums sides has totaled 329 albums, so roughly over 2 years to play 1 side of every album in my collection. In conclusion, for me the sweet spot is never exceeding 1500 albums and then consider many of us have an equal amount(approx. 1000) of compact discs. |
Albert Collins-Ice Pickin' Side A
Teresa Brewer-Greatest Hits(Philips PHS 600-062) Side 1
Bobby Bare-Drinkin' From The Bottle Singin' From The Heart Side 2
Carole King-Thoroughbred Side 1
Rush-Exit...Stage Left Side 4{Dark Sounding?)
Paul Carrack-One Good Reason Side 1
Tchaikovsky-Symphony No.5(Bernstein MS 6312 Six Eye) Side 1&2
Note*** I started recording my playlist on 4/14 of this year. Have played 332 albums only 3 have been repeated, Marlena Shaw-Is It Love. Played side A 6/16 side B 10/25. Sergio Franchi/I'm A Fool To Want You side 2 5/19 side 1 8/9. Steely Dan/Gaucho side A 2X 5/10 7/28 Are the Babylon Sisters responsible for my repeat? My vinyl collection is around 1400 approx, 50 are in poor condition(Toss) 75 are multiple copies and another 50 i have no interest in. So that gives me around 1200+ albums so in a 7 month period i have spun over 27% of my vinyl collection which is of modest size, Just want to make a point not all audiophiles play the same 50 or so albums over and over! |

+1 @tomic601
Interesting note Jackson Browne had his first 7 albums certified platinum in the US. Quite an accomplishment considering the mature adult lyrical content. Need to find a mint original pressing of The Pretender and Late For The Sky, my garage sale find of Running on Empty is near mint. Hate to pay $50 for an album that was $5 10 years ago! Will spin an overlooked album(if I can find it) Lives In The Balance tonight! |

@drrsutliff Great album, I picked up an original pressing VG+ at a thrift store. This album gets better the more times you listen to it. I was not aware of this LP because its a previous generation album for me. Might be a top 100 pop/rock album of the 70's? |
