WOW! Been awhile since I came across a deal like that. Good find.
If you havent found Discogs yet, you may want to check it out. Website/app that you can put your collection in and have access to what you have on your phone by the app. Give price range also. Breaks them down by release and rerelease and even the plant they were made in. All that info is in the runout wax to help identify what you have. I'm not a dealer but its nice to have the info. Its also a source for insurance purposes.

Thanks, Greg! I'm going to have to add new riders to my homeowners to cover recordings and audio-video equipment.

Louis Armstrong Plays King Oliver, 1969 release. VG, $1.01. I am pleased with it.

Picked up a copy of Black Label Society's RSD release "Alcohol Fueled Brewtality Live".

Great album. I have seen BLS in concert several times and they do not disappoint. The best show I saw was Zakk Wyldes Zakk Sabbath tour where he is covering Classic Black Sabbath songs. When he was playing War Pigs, he came out in the audience during the solo and stood right in front of me!! Me and my buddy were the only ones who did not have our phone out. I was not about to watch him shredding through the screen on my phone.

Some Rundgren and some Utopia, some Sinatra, and some Pete Fountain and Al Hurt. The covers are worn, but all of the discs are nearly in mint condition. There's a copy of Runt: the Ballad of Todd Rundgren for about 20 bucks. I know that's at least a hundred dollar plus album, but I already have copies on vinyl and CD and I am really not interested in speculation at this point. I'm close to a thousand LPs in my collection. Running out of shelf space as it is.

Picked up a couple of BTO albums that I didn't have. Can't remember the titles. Also picked up " Tony Alamo: Love Songs for Sue... and you". My sick sense of humor rising I know. Yes, I also know what a despicable cult leader he was.

Picked up a reissue of Metal Massacre 1. A compilation from the early 1980's of unsigned bands with the first record release of Metallica and Ratt. Also picked up the new release from Clutch: Sunrise on Slaughter Beach.
