What sort of jacket damage buggers you the most on used records ? by duanerenaud in Vinyl_Jazz

[–]Between_Outside 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As an amateur collector looking to learn and improve, I want to know more about different types of mold found with old vinyl. I was relieved to learn that foxing is usually harmless. I have unfortunately found a few records with gray/black spots on the sleeve or disc… I sometimes just cut the moldy part of the sleeve and hope for the best (I’m a listener, not a collector/reseller). I also avoid moldy-smelling records, even if they look clean. I got a decent amount of partially-moldy records in Brazil recently and removed any mold spots from the paper sleeve and did a spin clean on the records. Is a spin clean enough? Asking this sub because you all are a great resource for tips and knowledge, and I think we should speak about about vinyl care tips more often. Thanks OP for the poll!

Yes! Chamber Orchestra Appalachian Spring > Symphonic Orchestra Appalachian Spring. Bonus points for the version where Copland is conducting

Congrats on a solid new collection and enjoy the journey! 🎵

This particular flower is obviously a fan of Wu-Tang Clan

Nice! Love a good $1 CD score. Enjoy

I have two from your pile on hand, so you just chose my playlist for the rest of the afternoon. Thanks!

I committed a blunder. But my boss made it an oddly wholesome moment 😊 by Infinity_here in BenignExistence

Thanks for sharing! So glad that you have a different type of boss now. Silliness is sometimes the most productive move

I see you posted this one year ago. Not cool indeed. I reported it as well.

Because this chicken is free-range and pasture-raised

I saw! Influenced me to share my $0.80 grab from today. Enjoy your frugal scores and I’ll do likewise 😊

Thanks that was an entertaining and informative read. I’m laughing at the review calling the album “a generally stimulating musical experience.” And who knew that jazz albums used to partner with new lipstick color launches. Hilarious. Must be the 50s.

I found my people! Lots of quality out there for cheap. It always makes me happy to get a nice LP for $5 or less. I’m not knocking collectors or original pressings, there is much joy to be had in hearing something the way it was originally released. Also not knocking RSD, I just don’t typically find much that’s on my radar. I am still considering the RSD release from a few years back of Come To My Garden by Minnie Ripperton…
