MOVs are almost all from digital sources- but they routinely sound excellent

It sounds good. I have a Mingus twofer I need to compare.

Well, the Mingus MOV is very nice. Good quality vinyl.
The old twofer has a special kind of sound that's timeless.
I'll put more thoughts in the jazz thread.

So maybe my best online find ever? Took a chance on this jazz/blues lot of about 15 records for just under $75 and this was in there:
Robert Johnson - King of the Delta Blues 6-eye deep groove mono, promo stamped.
Condition is spectacular, true OG mono. VG+ all around.
Standard, non-promo averages $375:

Promo has never sold on Discogs, couldn’t find another one to compare it to. Only 2 people on Discogs have it in their collection.

Thanks! I wasn't even after it, lot had a few hard to find jazz titles I've been looking for and a few blues titles I figured I'd keep or sell. Assumed it would be the 70's reissue but this was a nice surprise!!

Went to a thrift store yesterday to look at records and found a 2x2 Kallax in great shape for $5. How the hell am I supposed to pass that up? I couldn't find anywhere to put it for records, so it's in my clothes closet serving 'organizational' purposes.

I never find much at Goodwill, but the other day I stopped in after dropping off a bunch of donations. This fine lady was staring at me and it was a nice find for $2, record is in great shape. 
Got home and went to log it into Discogs and found this message on the back. Unless Courtney loved Blossom Dearie enough to fudge her auto, I’m betting she met her at a show or something and got it signed. Pretty cool!

Amazing score! Funnily enough, I found a copy of Blossom's "Needlepoint Magic" a few years ago at a carboot sale for 20p that is signed by her. I thought it was part of the cover art at first. Red pen as well to match yours!

Her haircut's a bit better on this one.
I think it's the same 80s-Battlestar-Galactica hairdon't, but I think in Selaws' pic someone hit her with a blow-drier riiiiiight when the camera went click

My "bargain bin bandit" buddy went to our local on "a whim" after work today, despite having been yesterday, and once again got the goods!
He's giving me the bottom row. I already have to top two (including an OG Canadian Mono of the self-titled) from his previous binning excursions.
