Indeed DottorJazz, I went on to meet Mrs Right. Unfortunately for me, I was married at the time to Mrs Wrong. The path of true happiness went on to be rewritten.

However there is still what brothers in music refer to as “W.A.F”: Wife Acceptance Factor. Record playing equipment, storage, and interconnecting “wires” score very low.

To the ladies I say: its never a good idea to demand ” either the records go or I do”.

yes,I do.
everyone always encounters the right wife……
……after !
in the meanwhile everyone of us,no one excluded,must protect our beloved “children” with every effort,even arms in hand.
here’s my shoulder to cry.

Horrifying in retrospect. My then spouse decided we had no more space for my records and determined to take stuff I didn’t play to a car boot sale. Most of my 1960’s vintage vinyl collection was snapped up instantly by a dealer, and she proudly gave me the £20 she had got for them all. I passed just one in the window of a record store the other day, £250.

There is a moral here, but I can’t seem to find it. Help me out, anyone?

Hey Al- indeed, have a blast at the WFMU Fair. This will be the first time in five years I am not selling at the show. Between rising table costs for dealers and being in the process of moving, had to pass up this time. Speaking of moving, this is the first time in my short life thus far (29 yrs old) that I have had to move 10,000+ LPs from A to B and man, it’s killing me! Anyone have any humorous, frustrating, or horrifying vinyl moving stories to share?

Well, Al, enjoy it. While you’re selling your gems, I’ll be here in the rainy Netherlands! 😉

Good luck with the sales at the fair this year Al. Sadly, I won’t be able to make it myself… The wife “grounded” me until all the #$%&ing leaves are off the lawn believe it or not !!! It also cost me $3650 to get my chimney fixed this weekend, so I won’t be buying any records for a little while… But we’ll see… heh heh heh.

Hey, Jason. I’ll be there all three days this year. I haven’t found any more Brother Jacks, but I’ll look and see what I have in the Prestige area that may be of interest.

Al – will you be there all three days this year or just Friday? And any Brother Jack on yellow label Prestige making its way to the fair?
