Scoop Posted April 26, 2008 Share Posted April 26, 2008 I was a journalist on Kerrang (plus a few other mags) and I was also a rock club DJ about two billion years ago. As a consequence I have a pretty enormous collection of rock albums, mainly from the mid 80s to mid 90s which I frankly never ever listen to anymore. The collection is a mixture of LP, 12" singles and CDs. They're cluttering the place up and I haven't even owned a working turntable at home since about 1997... At a conservative estimate I'd say there are between 1500 and 2000 items in total. There are a lot of promo copies, white labels and rareties in there and there are frankly too many to catalogue; in fact it's the very idea of actually going through them and listing them which has stopped me making any effort to be rid in the past. I'm based in Liverpool . Come and browse (I'll make you a cuppa) and take what you want in return for folding money. If you want the lot, hell, I'll make you two cups of tea. Oh, but do let me know you're coming first... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chopthebass Posted April 26, 2008 Share Posted April 26, 2008 Its a shame you don't have a list of what you've got, as I reckon you'd get a huge amount of interest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll get onto listing them tomorrow. Cheers for the interest folks. dave. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
