I have over 1000 Lps/12"s and another 50 7's. Add to that well over 1500 cds, and thats a lot of music.
After my last move, i reexamined how i buy records. Ever since i began buying music, i would constantly buy things on whims, or things i kind of liked at bargain prices. especially at thrift stores and garage sales. but after moving them all, i changed my mind. i dont need every herb alpert album on vinyl. i shouldnt be buying vinyl becuase im interested in a group necessarily (12's excluded). Im about to start a process of getting rid of about 300 LPs soon, as I am in a minimization mode for this spring.
also, my cd collection exploded when i started djing weddings and corporate events 3 years ago. then, i had a need for every type of music, and began burning all my clients' cds. never before would i have assumed id own The Bee-Gees Greates Hits.
