Record Collectors and Richmond's Fine Vinyl

I love lists.

Well, actually, they're just OK. They tire me out sometimes.

But I REALLY love records. And so this just-posted online list of rare and unusual Richmond-affiliated vinyl platters that I compiled with Richmond Magazine arts editor Craig Belcher was fun to put together and listen back to.... and we even give you links so you can hear the artifacts in question.

With this list, you can find outmoreabout Robert Williams' amazing "Loud Mufflers" as well as check out  noteworthy tracks by the Ferguson Brothers, Johnson's Happy Pals, Serious Tripp, and more. Get to listening right here.

The list accompanies a larger Richmond Magazine feature section where different area record hounds are profiled - there are a lot of record stores in this area, as I've written about in the past. For this Rich Mag spread, I came up with a piece on legendary record collector John Wood, the man who started the Richmond area's first record shows, and who keeps a guest cottage just to house his 45's. Get that article right here.

  2. Undoubtedly, professional-grade vinyl is readily available for home usage, and that means you shouldn't accept vinyl with bad durability. Metallic vinyl and neon vinyl cannot be layered. To learn more about heat vinyl transfer, visit on hyperlinked site.
