I have a 2-foot stack of old afrts (Armed Forces Radio
and Television Service) LP records from the 70's.
They are used, but in good condition.
They have the offficial afrts label with records
contents listed.
What should I do with them? (be nice)
Examples:
Kris Kristofferson
David Cassidy
Barbara Streisand
Roy Clark
Sweet
DeFranco Family
Dawn, featuring Tony Orlando
John Lenon, Yoko Ono
Michael Jackson
Rick Springfield

Exactly what this has to do with legacy computing escapes me, Steve -
but speaking as a person with many many years in the music and film
business, and also many years (to the present) of audio restoration and
media conversion experience:
Are any of the titles NOT available on CD as compiliation or re-issue?
If any are NOT (and the titles you gave are all very common everywhere)
are the discs in pristine, maybe-never-played condition, in inner and
outer sleeves?
Have you looked at the vast array of Vinyl Record Sellers on eBay and
elsewhere to compare your items with prices/desireability??
We now return our readers to their regulary-scheduled Legacy Computing
Mailing List.
Cheers

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
!
The Armed Forces actually published an album of John Lenon and Yoko Ono
music?
Now I'm convinced our nation is doomed.
Michael Jackson
Rick Springfield
And this is just sick.

Cool! Surely someone would want to purchase those! If I had the space
and the economy was a bit better, I'd love to purchase them. They sound
like collectors items, that would also be great to listen to... with a few
exceptions such as the Michael Jackson album.

Agreed! My wife and I love LP's. You can pick them up dirt cheap
(at BadWill the boxed sets are especially nice as it's harder for the
idiots that work there to trash them), and if you like old music you
can find tons of stuff you couldn't get otherwise.
Stuff like 78's are a bit more of a problem, as a new turntable to
play them is rather expensive.

Donate them to WFMU in Jersey City, NJ (www.wfmu.org). Laura Cantrell in
the Radio Thrift Shop (Saturdays afternoons) plays AFRTS records. Then
listen on the net...
Tax write off, as well!
