  • Whittling down the collection

    ostost
    I go through my collection several times a year and purge. I always have to be able to blindly pick winners from the shelves. Killer, no filler. Also, the purges remind you why you kept certain records. Your tastes usually change and certain things become more interesting or not. I have a standby section where I put records for a few months to a year before getting rid of them if I'm not entirely sure. Anything that cannot easily be replaced, I keep. Everything else goes away. I'm at about 3,750 LP's and 12"s and about 1,250 45's. The rest is in standby or for sale/trade. A good collection should have some focus. As much as I love some pop records, I don't need to have them on vinyl. That's what Serato or Traktor are for if need be.
