The shelf is less than 4 feet from me...if I could walk through walls, but the door is 5 feet from me...In reality, if there wasn't a wall, the Jazz bookshelf would be the back of the 'puter desk, but I'm too lazy to get up, so...
Off the top of my head, 5,6,7,19,27,30...then add about 70 or 80 on top of that.
I don't wanna do that! I'm into the LP collection...if I ever get that done, MAYBE I'll do a spread sheet of my music books. Let's just say I'm the only person I know that has a collector's guide with 78's listed! But then there's this gem I paid $30 for: "The Complete Encyclopedia of Popular Music and Jazz, 1900-1950" Roger D. Kinkle; Arlington House 1974; 4 volumes.
I almost crapped my pants when I saw it years ago in Pittsburgh at a big "remaindered" book shop called "Book Country." List price was $100...I think I may have sprung for that if I'd seen it at that price. Talk about a golden research piece!

the "New Hot Discography is entirely 78's

masturbation has got to stop! Talk about illicit drugs! If I could eat, go potty, grocery and other sundry shopping, sleep, keep in touch with friends, shower, and everything else that life demands while sitting in my record room and listening, THEN this titillation would be O.K.Since life is a bit more complicated, I'm being driven crazy by all of these Jazz LP posts!
