Yeah, I had sold off some of the ones I thought I still had... I used to buy about two CDs a week, I think in the last year I might have bought that many... My record collection (actual records) includes Beauty and the Beat; I Love Rock N Roll, Freeze Frame, Journey's Escape, Dark Side of the Moon, Houses of the Holy, Kill Em All, Beatles 62-66, Licensed to Ill, Tougher than Leather, The Wall, Rush: 2112, Bon Jovi's first album, Van Halen I, 1984, Syncronicity, Thriller, Metal Health and Business as Usual... Most of those hold up pretty well...
I don't have any more of my vinyl albums - even when they were around, I liked cassettes better. Probably the worst thing we have is an album of Cat Stevens songs, but it's not Cat Stevens doing them. My wife saw this at a garage sale and got it for something like 25 or 50 cents. On the other hand, maybe it would have been worse if it was really Cat Stevens.
Chant: The Benedictine Monks of Santo Domingo de Silos It's still in the plastic wrapping, so I'll assume it was a gift.
Cat Stevens' early albums were quite fine, I thought. Abba is perfectly delicious pop, and I will not argue this. And Cap'n Kirk, nice album in you tagline. Destroyer is easily my favorite Kinks song. I still have about 200 vinyl albums, and a working turntable. But I don't get to play them much.
A former college roommate has the Slim Whitman Christmas Album. He was a dick. We called up and had him buy it through a TV offer. I'm sure he was surprised when it arrived at his new apartment.
