Re: how many records have you got and do you still play them

I've got about 4000 LPs & 12"s & a few hundred 45s, I've even got some old school 78s.
I've been a DJ for about 20 years, I still use vinyl all the time.
I've picked up many a bargain from charity shops & car boot sales.
I had to stop buying a few years back because I ran out of space to store them, my parents shed is full of my records.
I will keep buying & playing vinyl for as long as possible.

bootsales are a great way of getting them but also charity shops.
ive a charity shop that has literally hundreds of vinyls both the small and bigger ones and so chaep they are.

most for under 2 quid.

if you have the time ............boot sales are an excellent place to get those vinyls back...........price wise its a dream

Yep. If you sell, you do what you think is right at the time. A friend said I should search Amazon, eBay etc and re-collect. But it wouldn't be the same.

I still have some records, though only a few as i've got most of the Song's i like on CD mainly. I'm not sure who the Records are i've got though, without looking I think one is Tom Jones, may-be a Spandeau Ballet one and "Now That's What I Call Music" from about 1993. As for the other's i'm unsure though which Artists/Compilations are on them.

...always preferred the sound of vinyl though as it has that 'raw' sound.

I agree; the 'higher' end of the sound, particularly, is better on vinyl.

All of my music is on cd ........... I have no albums on vinyl now as my music system basically died a slow death because the wiring decayed.......I have always preferred the sound of vinyl though as it has that 'raw' sound.

Re: how many records have you got and do you still play them

I had a huge vinyl collection until about nine years ago. I went through a period of being very hard up indeed. I sold quite a lot of stuff including all my LPs and singles. I'm quite sad about it now.

Re: how many records have you got and do you still play them

A few hundred singles not counting albums mostly from the 50's and 60's.I used to have lots more from the 70's and 80's.Don't play them any more since my record player broke down about 6 years ago.Mostly cd's and downloads now.
