All of them.
In addition to my affinity for the vinyl (and the memories associated with
the tangible albums), I haven't had the patience to see what the rarities
could bring in cash (although after that BIRDS BEES MONKEES post last week,
I was tempted). And to sell them (or cds) at the going thrift store rate?
Not worth the gas to drive them there.
One day (sigh) I'll have everything catalogued and a plan to become an
Amazon or eBay vendor. And although I hope that all those demise-of-the-cd
rumors are just that, I do know the vinyl will stand the test of time. :)
