I'm relatively new to collecting records. A couple of year's ago I discovered a used record store called Krazy Bob's Music Emporium in Langley, BC. I usually go there at least once a month and splurge on some neat vinyl.
I buy any old school Hip Hop I can find because it seems to be the most valuable and I've been a huge old school Hip Hop guy for more than a decade.
Other than that, I love big band Jazz. Any Blues or Jazz from the 1920s-1950s, including vocal Jazz. I've been getting into really really old country from around the 1940s and 50s; you know, the corny stuff haha. I try to collect a lot of soul as well because I love hearing the break beats they come up with.
Just interested in what some of you vinyl nerd's favourite pieces are in your collection? Here are some of my favourites (I know, not very rare, but they're my favourite):
Eric B. & Rakim, Paid In Full
The Battle for Rap Supremacy
Fat Boys, Fat Boys
Fred Astaire, Starring Fred Astaire
MC Shan, Born to Be Wild
