People love the warm, detailed sound that only a quality vinyl record can convey to the listener. 

After a hard day of work, what can be better than to come home and relax, put on a record on the turntable and sip a glass of wine to relax. As they say, "Music to soothe the savage beast."

Other items available at the sale will include concert T-shirts, and other music memorabilia.
