My dad used to have every Lightfoot album ever made on vinyl. He used to keep them downstairs in the closet and I thought they were the coolest things ever. Unfortunately, about 9 years ago he got rid of his turntable and brought all the Lightfoot albums to a record store, but the man didn't want them!! (Could you believe that??)So my dad ended up throwing them all away.

So 3 years ago, we finally got a beautiful Pioneer turntable (which currently resides in my bedroom)at the thrift store for about $5.00. Realizing his mistake 6 years before, my dad went on a mission, to recollect every Lightfoot Lightfoot album once Again (With my help, of course). We started in late 2001 and finished in August 2004. They were purchased from both Ebay and Record Theatre (A local music store chan that has Lightfoot LPs from $.99-$2.00). We also have plenty of extras.

How about you?
i'm a little confused. he got rid of the turntable. threw out the albums. then got another turntable and began recollecting the old albums he threw out. here's my questions. > witch albums did he have? why did he throw them away? it seems so wastefull to throw such stuff away i would of kept them till somebody wanted them. i'm sure there's enough places to give away these things. >why at some point did rid of all of the Lightfoot albums and then try to reclaim them? other than the fact he got rid of the record player.
i hope i don't sound to unkind.
