How long have you been collecting records for?
I was gifted my first record when I was 14 (1985) (Nazia Hasan). It was a real pleasure to spin this on the family's Cosmic solid state turntable. My collection grew slowly over the years with a gap when I moved away from home. It all restarted when my sister Jotika gifted me a turntable in 2007.
Which is the most valuable record in your collection?
I am possessive about my Steve Wonder Aquarium vinyl which I found in Osaka. I am also very fond of my Madonna collection.
Tell us all about your turntable setup.
I aquired a basic project turntable a couple of years ago. I still prefer something easier to handle ie without the external belt drive.
Any advice...
Its critical to store your new and old vinyls proplerly so learn the basics of how and where to store. I was lucky to get record collections of my friends Vikram Gokhal and Amitabh Krishna which comprized older titles helping me have a more holistic collection.
