...'twas built for the Prince Regent in the Regency period

Now seeing as I lived in brighton for about 25 years thats a big DOH

My kind of surreal question (to myself) was why call it regency line in the first place!

[Sie Vulture]

Haha!

Gonna wear out that needle! Might have to buy a new one.....

Congrats to that guy! Library overload, 'tis a good thing!

rubbishvisual is aka mr jeigh - he makes some very nice beats, so its kinda good that they ended up with someone who will 'appreciate' em fully

That's a fantastic haul and the reason why most of us traipse round car boots / charities / flea markets etc in the forlorn hope that one day the Vinyl Gods will smile down on us.

But the rest of the thread show why we can't be arsed to check Soulstrut any more!! What a pile of wank! If ever there was an argument for chemical castration.....


Wake me up when they update the 'Ish' section.

I some times dream of a haul of library LPs like that and i wake up all happy. Then i realise it was a dream and it kind of ruins the morning. is that sad? I still remember my first KPM record purchase (well first 5), ahhh that was £1.00 well spent.

I once overlooked a music de wolfe library haul. It was about 12 years ago at a local charity shop and they had hundreds of them in the racks for 20p each. I looked through them picked up one and my mate got another but I knew nothing about library LPs and I thought they looked a bit crap at the time so that was that.

Now I toss and turn at night and ask myself why. Why did I not buy the lot, I missed out big time on that one!

I have often wondered if anyone has tried writing to media companys and asking if they have any Library records lying around that they would want to sell.

about 10 years too late dude!

The first KPMs i got were in a record shop in Newcastle (upon Tyne) 5 for a quid. I got about 25 of them (as that was all i could carry) and left the rest. There was racks and racks of them must have been a couple of hundred in all! Again i didn`t know what they really were at the time as it was about 8 years ago. Looking back, not buying as many as i could financially afford is one of the biggest regrets of my life.....

Perhaps we should form a support group!

I’m still troubled by the knowledge that I too missed out on a rather good library score which was partly down to me not having a clue about library records and being rather financially challenged at the time.
A rather famous UK dealer did very very well out of these records that I had first dibs on.
