The Brazilian Bus Magnate Who’s Buying Up All the World’s Vinyl Records

www.nytimes.com...

his best guess at a current total is several million albums.

And I thought I had a large collection. Crikey, this dude takes obsession to a whole new level. Good on him, though, someone should get all this music together and preserve it. The picture in the article is quite staggering. It's really kinda blowing my mind to sit here and think of all that music. Way too much for one person to listen to in maybe hundreds of lifetimes.

I love to collect music but this guy makes me look like less than a amateur.

Bloody el. That collection must be worth double the amount of Vinyls he has.

Lets just say that his Son's/Daughters won't have a problem making a few quid in inheritance!

Preserving musical history. Awesome
I'd like to browse his collection.

Daunting task. How much time do you give yourself? You would have to stop at some point or you might go on forever and ending up a dead relic in a Brazilian warehouse isn't sounding like fun.

At least I'd hear some good music on my way out.
