    I know I'm preaching to the choir, but I get so emotional when you put clips of your dad in videos. I lost my dad when I was 23. Dad's are one of those special things that can't be replaced. Mom's can't be replaced either, but we both still have ours. I can only imagine how difficult this was for you. I still have some of my dad's stuff that some may would love to collect, others only I have any connection to.

    Your video brought back memories of my father’s passing 2 years ago. He was a well-known voice in the music industry and had been an avid collector since he was a kid. I believe at one time he had 30,000 items (78s, 33s, 45s and CDs)! It was a lot of work going through, so I know your struggle. Music has always been an important part of my upbringing, and I cherish so many of those memories, it brings me closer to him.

    My mother was the record collector in our family. When I was about 13 years old, my uncle bought me my first LP for my birthday. It was the Mammas and the Pappas "California Dreaming". That started off my collection of records, which grew and grew and grew until about the 1980's when vinyl records were no longer sold in South Africa because the CD was the new in thing. I was mesmerised when you were going through your Dad's records, especially the 45's. It must have been heartbreaking for you to have to sell your Dad's precious collection, but there always comes a time in life when difficult choices must be made.

    Oh the music!!! Born in 64 I was brought up on a lot of these, my dad was only 18 and loved music, which he passed on to me 😍 While I was away at school he sold off a load of LPs to his students and when I returned home I was furious, as some were mine... Turned out he sold them to his students (he was a cool teacher and often had the latest albums he would tape on request lol). The boy who bought most of them became my husband, so I got my records back!!! 🤣

    Alex, I'm so glad that you still have some of your fathers collection of albums. He has some really good titles from what I've seen. I thought of my dad when I saw your video. My dad was a talented local drummer and loved music of many different types. He had decent album collection (not as big as your dads') and I remember looking through his albums when I was a kid. Sadly he passed away in 1996 and his record collection was destroyed. So that is why I'm happy that you have some of your dads albums

It is all good as you incorporate some into your life, and move some on to new good homes. Lots of the titles were part of my teenage time, brought back memories. I loved the video.

    yeah, I know the feeling my uncle had about 10,000 records but my aunt thought she could sell them without my expert help (i have been collecting too for about 30 years 78s and cylinders mostly) and she got a really shitty deal the guy basically scammed her out of thousands! I would have taken in the records so she would have had room in her house and I would have divided it into sections from trash to treasure and auctioned them off on our national record fair's auction section far better than a local record dump dealer who pays 5 bucks a kilo! so people do some research and a place where 2 to 3 million collectors come to forage is probably the best option.
    also, I would have done that all for free you do that for family and dear friends.

      also, do the homework because if you sell too cheap it is your own fault.
      when I buy bulk I recon on value of just a few items I can see the rest comes later so if I get a collection worth thousands instead of hundreds it is not my fault but a lucky find for me if you find an expensive painting in a thrift store for a dollar the owner wouldn't call you a scammer.
      getting an appraiser helps in these circumstances or sell at auction.
      when Alex got that huge collection of watches and parts for a low price then you would not call him a scammer, would you?
      I don't even know if the term scammer applies I think the right terminology is a swindler.
      so for your own stuff, I would say be careful do the homework google and eBay know a lot (eBay past sales) it all has to come from you because most countries' laws say that a deal is a deal if you get swindled then you lost.

    I love that '64 Caddy! So huge! When I was a kid that was what we would call a "land yacht!"

      @@melw401 Nope it's a '64. I didn't want to get it wrong and I thought it was a '64 or '65 so I googled both and the pictures I found of '64 sedan devilles are exactly it. Then to verify, I went back and checked the video where Alex bought it and he says in the video it's a '64.
