What is the earlest date you have King, and who was your favourite artist?king wrote: Thu Jul 09, 2026 4:07 pm I've collected vinyl records since I was in my teens. Probably buy a couple records every week. I've around 10,000 now and the wife is sick of them filling up the house. There mainly 50s & 60s records.
Well, Dave, I think i can only improve.Diamond Dave wrote: Thu Jul 09, 2026 4:13 pm I love art in any form Dev, to me the only person that can criticise any interpretation of art is the artist themselves.
However. I do draw the line at some modern artist like Tracy Emmin who are just taking the piss out of society.
The only way a "masterpiece" can be called so, is if the artist himself is happy with it.
Jmo.

The earliest 45s I have are UK Export 45s made in 1950 which is 3 years before 45s were available for sale in the UK. I've too many favourite artists to list, but Glenda Collins is one of my favourites.Devo1956 wrote: Thu Jul 09, 2026 4:14 pmWhat is the earlest date you have King, and who was your favourite artist?king wrote: Thu Jul 09, 2026 4:07 pm I've collected vinyl records since I was in my teens.
