Record Collections...what's in yours? - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Berlin · 09-23-2003, 06:47 PM

For those of you that have LPs lurking around your house, what's in your collection?

I don't really have many records, I stopped getting them when I got my first CD player in 1993 (it was my tenth birthday present) but my mother has a massive collection including albums from:

The Beatles
Janice Joplin
Blondie
The O'Jays
Rose Royce
Jackson 5
The Who
The Rolling Stones
Black Sabbeth
Elivs Presley
The Jam
Aretha Franklin

Most of her stuff is from the 60s-70s. She's got so many, way more than listed above. I love listening to them, hearing music on records feels very different from CDs or tapes for some reason.

What about you?

I think I either gave my old records away, which is very stupid, or lost them in moves, which is just sad. I'm tempted to buy them again on Ebay, but haven't yet.

I do have:
Lennon Sisters
Lawrence Welk (my parents stuff)
Barbara Mandrell
Classical -George Gershin, Mozart, etc.
The moon landing & Apollo 13
JFK speeches

I have lots of Rick Nelson CDs though! Play them all the time.

A big part of mine, say 75%, is very old oldies. That's about 50% from about 1957 through 1963 and another 25% is from 1964 through maybe 1970. Almost none of it is anything recorded after 1995.

I have a bunch of songs from the 1950's and 1960's, many Christmas records and albums of Johnny Cash and Elvis Presley.
