Hidden Treasure Found.......


....while at the ancestral home for the holiday, the Mother and I were searching in the storage area of the basement for something or other, and came across these. They are called 33's and some still have on the plastic sleeve in the cover. There were four huge boxes of them and these were the first four I pulled out.


At a glance, there was also some Henry Mancini, Percy Faith,Julie London, and loads of lounge and jazz greats, not to mention some Saddler and Young. Now I just need one of those things to play them on. And a nice neat libation!

    Now these are great reasons to own a turntable. If I ever inherit my parent's small record collection, I'll need to get one.

    In fact, I wouldn't mind having this one. Retro but works with MP3 players.
