Today, I was talking to the daughter of an old a'phile who is now in his 86th year. I do not know this gent, but his daughter wants me to acquire his 12,000 classical LP collection. The old gent has collected all of his life. Now, he is suffering from dementia and his daughter wants to make sure that this large collection is disposed of. I'm going to take a long hard look at it. Problem is, I just disposed of over 10,000 LP's from my collection ( triples and not so desirables), so I'm not overly excited about this. The other interesting thing is this old gent also has a large system consisting of multi-speakers in the same room as his LP collection. The daughter describes him as a "hoarder". Rather a sad situation, IMHO.
Anyhow, I will probably be posting some interesting classical LP's on line in the next few weeks. If anyone is looking for something in particular, send me a PM, and I will see if it is in the collection.
