To me, they are both priceless! I know, that sounds hokey. http://www.corfid.com/ubb/rolleyes.gif

I don't think that I could part with them for anything. Most of them were the originals, that I bought when they came out, and then got some in duplicate. ------------------ 'Rainy day people always seem to know when it's time to call; Rainy day people don't talk, they just listen, till they've heard it all.'- GL [This message has been edited by Aime_41 (edited February 11, 2005).] |

Priceless? Y'all don't move often do ya? http://www.corfid.com/ubb/wink.gif
I was trying to decide just the other day how badly I want to keep the vinyl. They're heavy to move, take up storage space once you move them and I'll probably never play them again even though I own a working phonograph. I've cut the collection back over the last couple moves down to the ones I can't bare to part with. But I'm thinking of parting with them. quote:Originally posted by Aime_41: I don't think that's hokey. Most of my vinyls are beat up, but they are still "priceless" to me.

Then again, I could create a couple dozen place settings instead. Hope no one did this intentionally.

We've lived here for 35 years. I can't even imagine what moving will be like. Our son and daughter-in-law moved last year, after only 11 years, and they hauled away a dumbster full of junk.

I know my copy of the original,"Sit Down Young Stranger",is priceless to me! I couldn't believe it when I just happened to find it that certain day in Oct. of 2002! http://www.corfid.com/ubb/eek.gif
I mean,I wasn't even looking for a GL album that day! (I thought it would be awhile before I'd find anymore.) ...but there it was in the record rack along with a near perfect "Don Quixote"! http://www.corfid.com/ubb/smile.gif Besides,think about it folks,"Lightfoot" will be a (gulp!) 40 year old record next year! SDYS is 35 at the end of this year,COTS is 30,D.S.Rose 25. We hold in homes "classics". Forget $$$ folks,what these records mean to us is worth a lot more. http://www.corfid.com/ubb/smile.gif http://www.corfid.com/ubb/cool.gif ------------------ "A knight of the road,going back to a place where he might get warm." ;) - Borderstone |
You know what guys, you are absolutely right. It's not about the monetary value of Gord's albums, but the, personal value of his albums. If all of Gord's LP's were worth one penny, I wouldn't care. It's not about the vinyl, but the music and the voice pressed ON the vinyl...

I don't collect vinyl, but all of my CD's are priceless. I don't really care much about rare material or mint condition. As long as I have all of the songs, I'm happy! http://www.corfid.com/ubb/smile.gif

Oh, Violet, don't get rid of those records! Some day you'll regret it. The music, the memories. I've carried all of mine (Gordon and others) from place to place and never been sorry. This Christmas, I bought my 20 year old a combination CD player and turntable, and sent her back to college with many of my old albums that she loves.

A friend in Santa Barbara, CA (who owns a record store wrote me today:
Rez.... Thanx for the E-mail. I (like you) have only seen a picture of the "only" Gordon Lightfoot cover. It would be worth considerably more than the SDYS ($25). If You Could Read My Mind is $10 and EVERYWHERE (I have some in the back "bargain room" for $3). The VERY first two he ever made available only in Canada are WAY up there ($200-$400) and, of course are conSIDerably hard to find as he personally tried to buy all copies of the first one personally to destroy them with an axe (I kid you not!!!) Vinylly, The Doc (Dennis) I gotta ax him about that axe. The Rez ------------------ It was a Beautiful Rainbow A Beautiful Time in my Life A Thing to Share A Time to Care To Be Alive |
Yesterday at our local Antique "Mall",I saw 3 LP's selling for 5+ dollars apiece. A fair copy of DSR,an original 1969 Best Of GL,and the best one of all,"Endless Wire" in it's original plastic wrap with the "featuring the songs" sticker still on the front! http://www.corfid.com/ubb/smile.gif
I'd have bought it but it's the week of rent paying,with which I also pay my water bill along with it. Next week! http://www.corfid.com/ubb/biggrin.gif ------------------ "A knight of the road,going back to a place where he might get warm." ;) - Borderstone |
