This is kind of a follow-up to madmax's thread on turntables. I thought it might be interesting to see what albums everyone has and it forced me to document mine in a .txt file.

    Led Zep 'Zoso', that's funny, it's Led Zep "IV", hombre.

    Yeah, I couldn't begin to make a list, I usually buy 30 or so a month.

    Russman - all the remastered Led Zep CD's are now labeled "Zoso" instead of "IV"? What's up with that?

    It's untitled. Amazon and such have listed it under both IV and Zoso.

    I'm like madmax- I'm in the 1200-1500 range. Might post a pic when I get the chance.

    yep... They might have put IV on the remasters, but it never had IV on the original album anywhere. Kinda like the white album. About half the people I know call it IV the other half call it Zoso... occasionally it'll show up in catalogs as "symbols" but no one actually calls it that.

    Does anyone have any holy grail like albums they want me to keep an eye out for at the thrift store. I saw a pink floyd Ummagumma today in very poor condition.

    I would recommend that you store your records vertical. That will ensure they stay flat and do not warp.

    Yeah, I had to move the case & I'm in the process of reordering everything, so they're just kind of leaning there right now. As for the 45's they're all crap anyway.

    Does anyone want to list 5 or 10 of their favorite vinyl albums that they own. I'm just curious.

    I just started collecting vinyl about 3 weeks ago. I'm at 79 albums right now, thanks mostly to my brother sending me about 50 of his extras. The other 30 or so I've picked up from a couple craigslist postings and one goodwill visit that netted 10 beauties. Maybe since my collection is small right now, I might start to document them and just keep up as I add. I've thought about doing this for CDs but its far to late. Between my wife and I, we are well over 2000 CDs.
    For rig details, see my profile. Nothing here anymore...

    Massive Attack- Singles Boxed set (The only one I've ever seen in the united states)

    Henry Belafonte- Live at Carengie

    Guns N' Roses- Appetite, banned cover and still sealed (still waiting for the right time to open it...

    Mckay- S/T I can't even find proof that this one exists, apart from the fact that I own it. Might have been a test pressing that they never put out.

    Rolling Stones- Sticky Fingers... the one with the working zipper.

    I've got the Belafonte at Carnegie, IMO, the example of a GREAT recording of some mediocre material (some really good, though). One of the albums that audiophiles have to have just because.

    Not a slam, just my opinion.

    Great "Redbook" vinyl as opposed to MOFI?

    A few sonic standouts out of the 400+ LP's that live here spring to mind:
    David Bowie's Let's Dance
    Roxy Music's Avalon
    Alan Parson Project's I Robot
    Rickie Lee Jones' S/T
    Elvis Costello's Armed Forces

    Hmmmmm... No classical. I'm sure there are some and more non-classical as well.
    More later,
    Tour...
