They are coming back, esp. with the younger crowd. I had to stop at a record shop in Orlando for my son on our way home from Mass a few weeks ago.Go figure !!

I got a bunch that we played on an old wind up player. Oldest son took the player but I got a bunch of the records. Even got one that is only recorded on one side!

I still have a lot of albums and 45's but no way to play them. I have seen machines that will convert them to cd's and I am watching for a good sale on one so I will still be able to listen to all that classic music. I have a lot of Elvis too, you gotta love him.

I have had so much trouble getting rid of her things that I'm trying to not leave my children such an onerous chore. I just had my 70th birthday and realize I won't be keeping house forever.

I hate getting rid of them, but they were used so much I dont think they would be considered collectables,but probably would be in good shape. I've got so many from the early 50's, and some from the 40's,like the Andrew Sisters,Glenn Miller,Benny Goodman.,etc.I know my kids will toss them, but I just can't make myself do that.
