uberwaltz...thanks!  I like to buy in person just so I can make the determination of the condition.  Great advice though and plan on using it!

Any other online reliable sources besides those that have been mentioned so far? 
If you could only keep 5 record albums, what would they be?
Now that I have read these replies I want to change my mind!  Pink Floyd...Dark Side of the Moon; and how could I not have voted for Steely Dan, Santana and The Who!!!

What is the first album you purchased, and do you still have it?
In reading these posts and seeing so many who like I, saved their first albums, I wondered...what else did I save?  What other objects held such esteem?  I have a handful of old toys, a few books, but music holds a special place in my heart.

BTW...to the Zappa enthusiasts...did anyone ever read his book, "The Real Frank Zappa Book?"  I laughed so hard...one of the best books I have ever read.

I really have enjoyed reading these posts.  I spent some time this evening flipping through my older albums and listened to a few.  Amazing how I can still remember where I bought some of them, how old I was, etc.  Great music therapy memories!!!

Sounds like one I might need to add to my collection! Glad to hear you are like me, still enjoying it after all these years.

I am not fond of country music, but for some reason, I found in my collection an album by Roy Clark.  On it is the song, Yesterday, When I was Young.  I have listened to it over and over...and subsequently the other songs on the album.  I am think... 
BE VERY CAREFUL OF YOUR DEALINGS ON AUDIO-ASYLUM
Just always do your due diligence.  That is the best defense in my opinion.
