No, my name is not Mr. Rogers.You are gonna make someone very happy. Ol buddy, ol pal.
Actually I need to do the same thing. I need to thin things out as I have run out of room and will never in my lifetime listen to all the Lp's in my collection, let alone get them all cleaned. It almost feels like a ball and chain every now and then. My goal is to get it down from 6,000 to 1,500-2,000. Cleaned, alphabetized and catagorized, and sleeved. Damn that would feel good.

Whether to be an archivist or a collector????I am damned by ambiguity! One day I read a string like this one and I think, "If I just keep the best of the best..."
The next day I think, "But what if a friend wants to hear..."
The next day I think, "Imagine owning only records that would blow both my mind and anyone that enters this den of iniquity..."
Back and forth, forth and back..."Why do I need these Styx (substitute ANY name here) albums? I never listen to them, I don't like them overly much..."
Even in the Jazz, "Why do I have these ragtime LPs, I never listen to them...but what if I have a friend over that likes ragtime???"
I think I need my Nuk! Heck, all we had were thumbs when I was a wee one!
Nurse, nurse...I think you forgot to give me my meds!
Sleaze the day!
i like being the archivist - don't worry mike, someday your princess will come and ask to hear lady on those monster infinity's - and, please continue to be the archivist for those of us whose collections of only 6500 or so don't have room for the likes of styx and ragtime
IF either of my sons decide to get busy, get successful, get married, and give me a grandchild to spoil rotten!A two year old to sit on my knee and listen to my Infinity speakers...well, maybe, if those lazy kids of mine get busy and get rich, I'll have a pair of Superbobang 7000i driven by Gargantua Didactic Literature mono-blocks, connected with DeBoers 100k Diamond wires, and a Rolls-Royce Camargue turntable with a Lamborghini Gigliato Aerosa tonearm and Ferrari Testarossa cartridge!
About as believable a scenario as the names of the equipment, eh?
Sleaze the day!
But maybe filler belongs on CD and... Styx, I am not sure where that belongs... Well, I am, but my tongue will be held.
