While digging through the MOUNDS AND MOUNDS of belongings my Father In Law left behind when he passed last month.
Yes, the year on the license plate is wrong, the grilles are wrong, and its pretty beat up, but its still cool as hell.
Oh, and I also found THE MOTHER LODE of music.
Besides the 12 cases of NEWER albums, and many many shelves of CDs and DVDs, I was finally able to dig my way to the cabinet that has music dating back to the 60's and 70's when he was a kid, and I’m pretty sure its all been here since the late 70's/early 80's when he moved in.
I can’t wait to catalogue it all.
Someone help please.
Please.
Please, help me.

Rush, The Band, and Van Halen 8-tracks? Beatles and Joe Cocker 78s? You’re father-in-law was awesome.
ETA: Just noticed the Thin Lizzy 8-track. This photo needs to be a higher resolution.

Fixed now. Not sure why they got rid of the “copy and paste” image feature. I have to remember to copy LINKS now. LAMEEEEEEE

Sorry about your dad. If it makes you feel any better about cataloging extra stuff, I have over 800 laserdiscs that need to be catalogued and sold from my dad when he passed.

Wow. Somehow that makes me feel better... mostly because his collection is mostly in a popular format. ;)

Well, he didn’t buy them at retail price, I think they were about 75 cents a disc.

I told the wife that MAYBE the cassette tapes were worth money IF it was a band that never released on vinyl or CD..... I wonder if there were any movies that ONLY came out on laserdisc that would be worth $$$?

Holy shit, Starcastle. I forgot that was even a band that existed.

LD are going up in price for some reason. Most are worth a couple of buck , some are worth a lot. I have an unopened mad max in LD for example.

Is there any benefit to some LD over DVD or BluRay? Extra content or something?
