Any colored vinyl is a good find and in that set excellent. I have a small set of classical 45rpm clear red records from the 50s I think. unusual items.

I suppose you could say so! Although no money has changed hands.

A friend came by today with 250 mixed classical lps from the whole period from 10in deccas to the last period of mainstream vinyl. He handed them over saying no payment required!!

Now I have to find the time to sort, clean listen and send the odds ends to charity.

Just rediscovered the Travelling Wilbury's LP's and found them both in very good condition on flea-bay (not cheap unfortunately, they reach around the 20 € incl. postage, but you do not count when you love!).
Love this unbeatable Harrison's style and they still sound amazingly country rock and though modern,even after those 20+ years.
Just before I found Roy Orbison's "Mystery Girl" in VG+ condition for 1 € at my thrift store next door. Heard this album benefited from Jeff Lynn and Tom Petty's cooperation.
Looking forward to more treasure search this week-end...
Dual 1019/Shure M97xE/Jico SAS stylus.
Thorens TD 146 & TD 166/Ortofon OMB5 and OM40 carts.
Marantz Mod 6170/Marantz E 5000 cart.

I can't believe you are either. At least it wasn't the Osmonds! :wink:
