I store way more than 7,000 in shed
It’s been a few years and they are still fine
But yes it’s definitely been considered

You are an immigrant who is storing things that define your self-worth in a shed outside. Minari is a cautionary tale.

I will say I'm a bit surprised that anyone who values music and the physical form at such a high level stores their media in a shed. I mean, I didn't like storing my lawn mower in my shed back when I used to have a shed.

I mean, I agree with you but where’s he supposed to put them. All “932 sq ft” house jokes aside, most people don’t have an entire extra room to store records. What’s he supposed to do — rent a temperature controlled storage space?

Personally, I could picture hutch sleeping surrounded by mounds of vinyl…

Well I pick the ones I want in my home but I just can’t keep more in my home.. I mean many of those in the shed are fairly worthless records I have no interest in….should I keep five copies of Rappers delight in my house?
It’s actually very common for people with large collections to keep part of it boxed up….you have to make choices…
In my old house I kept them all inside and what happens then is the records you really love are overrun by records you find kind of interesting or bought for next to nothing just to listen to once… some of those are pretty banged up….it doesn’t make sense… I have thought of renting storage many times but it’s just not worth it
My idea is to get rid of many of them…and I have already started doing that…
When you spend twenty years collecting records this is what happens… I always thought I would have a massive record library at home but it’s just not going to happen

technically Led Zep had only 2, 3, and untitled
first one is self titled and not considered Led Zeppelin 1

There is an underworld curated cd where they include Marvin Gayes’s T plays it cool (from Toubleman) with one of my favorite drum breaks ever played by Marvin himself
And sure enough “Tree and two chairs” on Drift includes a very similar drum break
Most people don’t even know Gaye was a seriously talented drummer

Exactly what are you doing to yourself with those LP's? Never mind…don't need to know.
