vinyl collection picture thread

Will post a proper pic of my room when it's actually tidy. This was taken a few years ago. The other wall is the same. Will dig out some of my favourite sleeves too. The loft has a few thousand more in but that's even more disorganised.Attachment 13427

D-Kem, all I have to say is DAMNNN. That is one hell of a collection. I'll be posting mine soon, but it only consists of about 15 :).

Bejesus I hope the floors been reinforced for that lot.

I've got about 1350 listed in my Discogs collection and sat here waiting for the postie to bring a few more :thumbup:

It's a 10" test pressing of "Year Of The Hip-Hop" by L.L. Cool J signed by K-Def, who produced the track. Only 10 numbered copies exist. That's number 3.

I ordered the record from the US. When it arrived, it was in a Royal Mail bag with a notice on it saying that "the item inside has been damaged". I opened it up and it was utterly soaked through with water. I dried it out and thankfully the record label looked fine, but both the inner and outer sleeve were ruined. I contacted the record label and they had another sleeve made up and sent to K-Def to sign, but he signed it "To Barry" when my name is Steve, lol. They then made up a third sleeve and the guy from the label wrote "To Steve" at the top, then K-Def wrote the rest, hence the different handwriting.

dang i looked that album up and that is pretty rare! looking forward to seeing more of your record collection

Love the pics, nice to see some good vinyl collections. It is much nicer than perusing a list in an explorer browser! ;)

Not got any pics at the mo, but have about 2000 downstairs in the 'booth' ;) with the other 3-4000 records tucked away in the loft sadly :(

One of my favourites is the limited to 350 pressings of Cosmos (Tom Middleton) 'Summer In Space', 1 side the full track, the other side looped samples, and it's blue vinyl too!

Speaking of house music, my radio show tonight on NuRave Radio 6-8PM (UK), Deep/Souful House first hour, then some Rave Breaks, topped off with some classic '97 UK Garage. Tune in!

Yeah I own quite a few too but struggle to find stuff in the chaos. This 12" is one of my favs.

I've got a stack and there's brilliant stuff all over the shop. Sometimes it pays to rock doubles because the strings can get a bit saccharine even when the rhythm is astounding. 'Magic Bird of Fire' by the Salsoul Orchestra is a case in point.
