Years ago, when I lived in Southern California, there was an article in the Los Angeles Daily News (published in the San Fernando Valley) about a guy who worked in the sound department of one of the major movie/television studios.

He owned 100,000 vinyl record albums, and had them all in his rented home in Santa Monica.

The volume of records were so heavy that the floors were sagging.

That must have been an amazing collection, but I doubt if his landlord was pleased.

Personally, I have 1,000 - 2,000 vinyl albums.

Yeah, it’s funny when you think about why they were originally called LP’s. They don’t compare to a digital library. And once you build up your collection, they can get rather heavy. :)

We moved to a relatively small house in rural KY. I actually rotate my collection between the shed and the house. Typically, only a couple hundred are in the house at any given time. Keeps my wife happy.

I have five Peaches crates full. Never bothered to count them but they’re pretty heavy.
