Scored an Akai belt-driven turntable for $20 off Craigslist a week or so ago. Been spinning all my old high school punk records since I found that box in the attic. An Inforoo Santa brought me Love- Forever Changes, Mogwai Remixes, Purity Ring & Live Cloud Nothings, all sound amazing. This afternoon I stuck gold again in an old funk & soul basement shop...Yuck, Black Joe Lewis, Thomas Dolby, Canned Heat, Issac Hayes double live, Barry White, Woodstock double, Hank Sr, Rare Hendrix, Zappa & Beefheart, Santana, all $2-3 bucks apiece. Life is grand.

It really is. I haven't heard it in a little while and immediately when I saw it in the store I just snagged it out, ready to purchase it. No hesitation at all.

I think this thread has overtaken Now Playing as my favorite thread. I love looking at people's actual LPs. Records are beautiful. Not just the sound of it, but the images, the liner notes, the lyrics, the physical "beingness" of it.
Every time someone my age starts talking about the generation behind us screwing things up grumble, grumble, I point out to them that that generation is buying real mf'ing records - and if that doesn't make you think the kids are alright, than nothing will.
Ikea is the best option IMO for record storage. I don't have an Ikea close by, so I bought these interlocking cherry hardwood crates from Tony's Woodshop. He also made the matching interlocking base and top. I am very pleased with them, they look nice and will last forever. And I can always buy more as my collection expands, which it looks like I'll need to soon.

Love those Expedit shelving units, I have four of the black ones in my room as well. Very slick and sturdy.
Can't wait to get my Christmas vinyl haul. I have basically no money for records anymore with rent and my car payment so records are pretty much all I asked for for Christmas.
Also excited to give some records out. Got my one roommate Death Grips-The Money Store, another Madlib-Shades of Blue and the 3rd a Handsome Boy Modeling School single that his Uncle played keys on. Then my best friend gets a Rolling Stones live album to expand his ever-growing Stones collection

Expedit shelves are one of the coolest gifts a vinyl nerd can get. My girlfriend bought me some for my last birthday. She painted them and then glossed a bunch of old show posters onto the exterior.
My boss got me a copy of that Beck Sea Change on pink vinyl from this past Black Friday that was super hard to get (Schoolkids didn't even get any in) for Christmas. My boss rules!
For those who don't know: remember you want to store your vinyl upright on strong shelves that won't bend. Vinyl is heavy. If you store your vinyl face down in a stack, eventually it will warp.
