What You Should Know Before You Begin Collecting Vinyl
My first two LP's were purchased in April 2014. Four years ago I would never have imagined having almost 300 albums, almost 100 45's and even a couple 78's. Record digging has become more than a passion for me, but a lifestyle where I discovered I am more than a collector, but a historian of a long chapter of music history that shaped civilization and humanity. Here are a few things you should know if you decide you want to begin collecting these artifacts.

My 15 Favorite Happy Mood Songs
In my house, it was either disco or rock. I grew up with vinyls and no working turntable, but it was so much fun to imagine what they would sound like after being in a closet for decades. Eventually, my dad was given a working turntable when he turned 50. So far, I've played my own music and some of my dad's, and each vinyl sounds just as good as the last one.
