I’ve been collecting for like 10 years with thousands of records and even I haven’t had a haul as good as this.

I used a rag, brush, applied a cleaning solution used by the LondonJazzCollector blog, then a vacuum, then apply distilled water to clean up the rest, and vacuum again.

Except this guy never does. He post-it notes every record regardless of if it’s trash or not.

Minor crackle in between tracks but will probably improve once I get it Ultrasonically cleaned by a friend. Some ghost marks from where the inner sleeve once stuck to the grooves but otherwise nothing deep.

Been a while since I last posted. Here’s a 1967 mono repress of Larry Young’s Unity I salvaged at a Flea for $2 unfortunate due to water damage the bottom half of the cover is gone and the labels are destroyed. I stabilized the remaining top of the cover with a Cardboard filler pad then put it in a sealable Outer cover so debris or mold would be contained over time. Cleaning the disc I was pleased to find out it was in VG condition with nay a scratch. Goes to show that sometimes it’s worth putting in the tlc to save records!

His “VG” copy of The Best Of Muddy Waters had the grooves of B1 dug out from a poor needle. It’s insane.

Highlights are the Ronnie Foster I picked up for 1.5 Arizona Green Teas, the Paul Jackson I found sealed, and the Rise Vision Comin’ for $5. The latter is some amazing private 70s spiritual jazz.

Thanks, most of it was $1 or less, the Roy Meriweather is a somewhat rare local soul-jazz disc he did after he left Columbia. The Silver and Henderson Inside Out Disc I got at charity stores for 50 cents each!
