  • Lets Dance !

    Slow in here so I thought I’d post something ...
    About 30 years ago a demolition team was digging a hole to push structures into to burn,then cover completely. I was called to check out a water well which was old , rusted, and not worth salvaging..I checked out a store house which was next on the list to be destroyed.. Inside there were about a thousand 45’s and some artist I did not know...Anyway, I consider myself a salvage expert of sorts and pulled these out of the demolition teams way....The Elvis has one song on it that I was told was his only C&W ........JJ

    Ah, the twentieth century iPod! What's funny is I know all of these songs! I am 16 and wow, that is very weird for this day and age. Cool stuff! I bet a collector would pay something for those.

    My grandmother had some troubles with her water pipes a few months ago. They had to pull up the floor to get to them, and lo and behold, sat a bunch of 1960's super bowl Wheaties boxes. My grandfather collected everything under the sun and hid it, or displayed it. Don't ask me why he buried cereal boxes though...

            Vinyl is making a real comeback and some of the old records are worth big money, especially when they are obscure recordings by recognized artists. 😎

              Really ? I can’t imagine why unless it’s just a fad .. Maybe they wil bring back 8 track tapes too... I have a lot of those but I doubt they would play. Our roads use to be lined with tape from 8 track failures .. JJ
