    8:00 If I had attended that same Plaid Room sale or a similar warehouse sale of 10,000 records, I'd probably focus on LP records first while honing in on specific genres I like (or working from one corner to the last) and then if I had time, I'd tackle 45s which, as much as I enjoy them, they truly are the most exhausting and tedious of all to sort through when in so many cases, one relies on having to scrutinize the record labels to pick out individual songs or artists compared to LPs that offer cool covers to draw the eye.
    Either way, that sale and variety of records looked amazing! :)

    I managed to be there on the 1st day of their 1st warehouse sale, it was so hot & humid but had a really great time! I just randomly picked boxes to go through and found some cool stuff. My favorite find/gamble was Little Saints’ album Slapping Houses, something I probably never would have come across otherwise.

For me man, in a place like that, knowing I couldn’t see everything in one day and only had one day to see it, my first aim would be genre only, and first genre in a place like this, I have to see the classic rock, what late 60s through 70s and even rare 80s rock albums they have, then after that, I’m hoping they have a specific post punk cold wave new wave goth 80s fringe section

    2:59 wait…stop…”Burning Love”….I was after this one, a while back. A 45 from eBay…two live via satellite. All kind of flat. Then, finally…this version…from a little antique store- between Buffalo and Rochester, NY. About as clean as it gets, I’m thinking. Anyway I had to seek you out tonight…Oh exalted Analog Guru. The old BX-300 just grabbed ahold of another tape. It’s got one more strike…then the hunt for a JVC direct drive begins. Of anyone….

    For every record I own purchased from thrift stores (over 2,000 used records, give or take, which I'm not saying to be boastful since it's kind of horrifying to me. Haha!), I had to sift through 200 to 500 records to find them in great, playable, and mostly scratch-free condition. That means over the past 30 years or so, I had to sift through between 400,000 and 1 million records. Oh, brother! Still, I wouldn't have had it any other way. :)

    At first I thought go for the LPs as they're easier to see (picture sleeves) etc. But then I considered your comment about other buyers cherry picking the LPs before your visit. So perhaps forget the LPs and focus on the 45s. You're certainly more likely to find an overlooked 45 in a charity shop (thrift store) than an album. People have got much more canny over records since COVID.
