my record shelf
 

I need to arrange everything, because I have been listening to stuff and not putting it back in alpha order.
the three white boxes on the top are my 7" singles.

Wow. Just... well done.

Hardly compares too Rob's shelf, I've only been collecting since I was 16, but here's my records at home in their 'record cupboard', in no particular order. Slight storage issue now in that they're now competing for space with my bitchin' boots and dirty washing.

 

 

I dont have much vinyl. Mostly cuz I dont have much room for it. I love 7"s though. I'll say that.

Those are some seriously kick ass record shelves.

Here's what I got going on:









Nah, I just straight up lied. I only have like 3 records, cause I don't even have a working record player. I plan to get one though, I really do.

This is where I keep the S-T section of my 1957-58 7" vinyls.



Edit: Not really.

Oh, me and Afterthefact just told exactly the same lie in exactly the same thread at exactly the same time. (well I took longer looking for a suitable jpeg than he did, but either way).

hell, why not, it's still a collection I'm just as proud of:

Ha, and here I thought I inspired you.

If I could do a scrollable screenshot of my itunes, I would.

What are the two DVDs that look the same, three along from Elephant?

Looks like Faulty Towers to me.

man that is still a sweet set up dude. for real. Nicer than the crates I had before I got my shelf unit.

I think we bumped into one another while browsing the aisles of google image. I was the little fellow in the sailors outfit, with the limp.

Correctus.

These pics date back to a year ago, but it's pretty much like it is today.
Homemade shelves aktion

I have one J Geils Band CD. That's it. I don't see a single J Geils Band CD in any of those collections. That's why you have so many records. Compensation. One J Geils Band CD, and a fleshlight. All a man needs.

I remember you. I told my apprentice to distract you while I stole your change purse, but he wanted no part.


You've got a cool looking place, Gex.

This isn't too related to the OP but what the hell, I'm a senior member around here so I can post whatever I want. I've been inspired to go minimal in my apartment. I've taken down all wall art, put away all decorative bowls, baskets, etc, have put away all books and magazines in closets, and have kept furniture to minium. I've completely decluttered. I'm also getting rid of "stuff" (but not records). I'm finding that the more I simplify or declutter my surroundings, the more clearheaded I feel.

They say the way you live and the condition of your home directly reflects your state of mind.

Cluttered Home = Cluttered Mind

Organized Home = Organized Mind

^^ of course

Well, it seems obvious, but some people don't realize how closely they are related. It's not so much that your house being cluttered with clutter your mind, but also the fact that your mind being cluttered will cause you to clutter your house.

This is all obvious of course, I'm just sayin'...

^^ thou speaketh the thruth

Thankeths.

Thou art welcometh

Four thoust fine conduct, haveth a sip from my brew:

One very simple thing--without clutter I find things easier. When living conditions are simpler, it's easier to stay organized. I used to probably waste at least a few minutes in the morning hunting for all the shit I needed before I left the house--keys, lunch bag, this folder, that letter, etc. Now there's a place for all this stuff, it's all easy to see, and I just grab it.

J. Geils Band pretty much sucks, by the way. I have Monkey Island on LP and I can't stand it.

what kind of cartridge are you playing it with?

The counterpart to this is, if you can exersize absolute parity of mind, you're not a terrifically clever person. My organisation always proceeds emotionally, it's not a filing system. I know where everything is, but there's no hope in hell for anyone else.



My record filing system, yesteday.

You should have named this thread :
POST A PICTURE OF YOUR SHELF
I'm so ashamed of you I won't read any farther.

Grado blue series. Why?

it must be the balance on your tone arm then.

No, I think it's the coke in the drug-addled band.

No it's definitely your system. Either that or maybe a poor pressing.

No, I'm beginning to think it's your brain. Cut it out.

Can't it be both?

a poor pressing and an unbalanced tone arm? it's unlikely but obviously possible.

As it looks right now...
