Yeah, the guy threw one in for free.
Its not sheet music, they are albums. 78s. -
Nice score! My dad would have done back flips over that collection of music. If the composer hadn't been dead for a couple of hundred years after creating the music, my dad wasn't interested in hearing it!:DMarantz AV-7705 PrePro, Classé 5 channel 200wpc Amp, Oppo 103 BluRay, Rotel RCD-1072 CDP, Sony XBR-49X800E TV, Polk S60 Main Speakers, Polk ES30 Center Channel, Polk S15 Surround Speakers SVS SB12-NSD x2

Damn... there's some potential there... Do you have/ have access to a nice cleaning machine?
Conductors? Symphonies? Furtwangler is one name to look for... He did a great deal of great recordings in the 1930's/ 40's with the Berlin Philharmonic... Beethoven, Brahms, etc....More later,

Come again? I really have no idea if I do or not. -
VPI... Nitty Gritty... Two biggest names. Wash and vacuum the vinyl dry... Good used deals abound for 1/2 of new prices. You can scope out different models at needledoctor and Audio Advisor...
The covers/ boxes look to be in decent shape. How's the vinyl look?More later,
Tour...

I've been picking up LP's at the Goodwill store for the past couple months. Fifty cents a disc.
BTW, if anyone needs me to pick up some Barry Manilow, they've got tons!
-
El bumpo. If anyone wants these, I need to get them out of the house. They would be a beast to ship, but if you can come pick them up, they are yours. Free of charge.

Vewy vewy gween wit envy!!! Nice pick up!

Damn, thats an excellent collection of some outstanding music. You might wanna check it out, Shelby. That **** will grow on you....;)
If you clean them up and get a new stylus on you TT, my money is on you keeping them.
I see one is Bach's Brandenburg Concerto's. One of my favorite group of compositions. Way cool... -

Sheesh.
Name what you want, name your price, and most importantly, you need to tell me how to pack this things for shipping.
Let me know if you need info on whats available. -
A lot culture there, nice collection. If I can remember, doesn't the 78'S use a different angle stylus than the 45 & 33's.>
