Records Again!!

Well I think I've just got time for a quick blog before bedtime!

The continuing saga of cataloging my records!!

The cataloging, I have to report, is almost complete. And I'm feeling suitably chuffed. Still a few stragglers to be logged but I'm almost there.

The down side of my fervent cataloging is that my flat is now awash with piles of records, and I can't find anything. There are various piles: piles of records to be added to the database, piles which just need their photo adding, piles which have a different catalogue number to the one listed....I'm sure you get the picture.

All this is particularly annoying when you try to have a mix and the next record you fancy playing takes so long to find the last one has run out!! But ho hum, not really complaining, am still quite chuffed with my self.

All in all it has been great. I've rediscovered countless forgotten gems and made a few interesting discoveries about the value of a few of them. For example whilst cataloging the sell or send to a charity shop box today I was quite shocked to find the 'spiral tribe' LP I nearly sent to the charity shop last year is changing hands for between £60 and £100!!

Might actually put that one up for sale after all.

Am also quite chuffed as I had my first release submission accepted to discogs today as well. After a few rejections I have managed to get my head around the discogs cataloging system and am now the proud contributor of "Zero dB's Bongo's Bleeps and Basslines", which I have to say is a mighty fine record. In fact I would go as far as using a favored phrase of my littlest brother and describe the record as DIRTY. And by DIRTY I mean the kind of record that makes you want to get very sweaty shaking your ass.... So anyway its a small claim to fame, and really rather insignificant, but I am proud to have that little 'submitted by mcop' to look back at in years to come. - I'm easily pleased!!!

Now if you have managed to wade through my boring waffle to this point, you may have come to realize I have a bit of an obsession with records.

Its not going to get any better.

I have a problem and I don't care!!

So there!!!

(And I also quite like using exclamation marks)

Have just noticed the time and although I had other subjects to waffle about, I have to get up in the morning so had better go to bed. So good night all.
