Vinyl craziness? I literally can’t stop…

Over the past 5 years, since the day when I bought on Amazon the cheapest ever (and rather dreadful) vinyl record player, I’ve started to buy records like crazy!

When my budget was tight, I bought cheap original LPs of 1970s-1980s disco, funk and R&B. Later on my taste is music has changed a lot: now I prefer hip-hop, and if we say about R&B, I prefer it to be kinda hip-hop soul — like Mary J Blige, one of my favs. I also love Neo-Soul and Erykah Badu and Jill Stone. I’ve bought all Erykah’s album issued on vinyl ! Actually, all of them were released or rereleased recently, except her Live (1998)…

Lil’ Kim, Eve, The Cranberries, Ja Rule, Ashanti, Jay-Z, MJB, Mariah Carey, Missy Elliott, Jill Scott, LL Cool J, couple of OST for famous Brazilian telenovelas, J LO, George Benson and Fleetwood Mac

DiscoGS, where I prefer to buy most part of my records, has an amazing option, enabling customers to create their own vinyl collections and see their net worth. Well, according to this data, as of now my collection equals to Minimum of $1,376.68, with Mediana of $2,565.53, and Max is $5,010.93

That’s far from end! Michael Jackson, Queen, Notorious BIG, Chic, Amy Winehouse, Barbra Streisand, MFSB, CJ & CO, Roberta Flack, Whitney, Ashford & Simpson, Sade and OST of my favorite 1970s movie — Looking for Mr Goodbar
That’s my “epoch of disco”: Cerrone, Diana Ross, Eartha Kitt, Gloria Gayno, Dr Buzzard, Salsoul Orchestra, OST Flashdance, Rafaella Carra, Grace Jones (my idol!!!)
It’s still not over: Sergio Mendes & Brasil’66, Cher, Alicia Keys, Fugees, Donna Summer, Thelma Houston, Aretha Franklin, Rihanna, Munich Machine and Jocelyn Brown
Lol. It’s far from the end. Alla Pugacheva (russsian “Madonna”) and her debut masterpiece “Mirror of the soul”, Loleatta Holloway, Claudja Barry, Enigma, Beyonce, The Barry Sisters, Madonna, ABBA….
Salsoul Records presents… Boney M, Kanye West, Maria Bethania, Sandra, and finally, MS. BADU, Lizzo, João Gilberto, Tom Jobim, Vinicius, Toquinho e Miucha anx Nina Simone
Ufffff that’s finally the end. Giorgio Moroder, Toni Braxton, Ace of Base, R.Kelly, Mario Winans, Irv Gotti, Amanda Lear, Yaki-Da, OST Bad Boys-2 and Destiny’s child

Let me know what do you think about my musical taste? I will not be offended — I guarantee )))

Let’s talk tomorrow about investment opportunities when it comes to vinyl market!
