Yea the guy I sold my LP's to had a business on hobby level he had about 10ki of vinyl in his garage (he brother had areal record store somewhere else where it all went eventually ) . So apparently every one has bette midler "the rose" some rod stewart ABBA (ar least in sweden ) private dancer with Tina Turner and some Swedish stuff that "every one " had . He basically had a list in his head of 30-40 LP he always find when buying a collection :) . But this modern times have loosened up what is "old" or hot and who's actually buying it . I mean 20 years ago you could probably guess some ones age within 5 years from looking at 50 of his LP's . The backlog of recorded music has increased exponentially and music industry is dying they say I have never in my life had so much to choose from -- Mnyb -------------------------------------------------------------------- Main hifi: Touch + CIA PS +MeridianG68J MeridianHD621 MeridianG98DH 2 x MeridianDSP5200 MeridianDSP5200HC 2 xMeridianDSP3100 +Rel Stadium 3 sub.
