Time to weed the LPs.... (choosing stuff to dump)


I am in the process (again, every few years) of weeding the Rock LPs. Going through newer stuff to decide to sell to my fav. record store, or keep.
I do this every few years to thin out the collection gradually. Eight years ago I did a major cull removing 6,000 LPs of 12,000 to move. Over the last six years I have cut that down to 4,500 (and probably buying 500 of those during that time).For all sorts of reasons it is a good project. Get rid of cobweb covered music I have no use for, (and maybe someone else wants) Frees up a small amount of cash to waste on more Stereo junk.The main thing is the collection gets better, more just what I really like.Anyone else clear out the junk now and then?(For the question already forming... and no I will not sell them here. I have bought tons of stuff at my fav. record store, I like them, and sell all my records to them.  LOL)

Years of  bin diving escapades for the "stamper" copy of Beatles and Stones albums takes up space.

Keep the "stamper"(your personal best)original presses and put the rest out on the curb for someone to experience.

I do this every now and then. Years of doing it, the desert island collection has developed into first press, mono/stereo heaven.

Get rid of those  "Greatest Hits" albums. The sonics are always a let down anyhow.
