Leaving a fire react on this feels very morbid considering the album cover.
The agutierrezb 2019 record collection challenge
So I've decided to embark on my own personal challenge, which consists of listening every record in my collection before the end of the year. My record collection is not that big -only ~250-, but I still feel like there are a bunch of records I don't give enough attention to, while still adding more titles to my shelves.
For this reason I've set a couple of rules in order to play every record at least once before December 31st: I'll play at least one record a day, going from front to back in the way I have them sorted in my shelf. I can play a different record (i.e. Not the next one in alphabetical order) if I feel like listening to something else in any given moment, but at least one of the records I spin in the day has to be the LP in turn.
I didn't take pictures for the first two days, but I'll try to document the process from here on, so I'll be posting daily on this thread. Wish me luck!

So I came across this NM copy of RTJ3 out in the wild today. Been looking for it online for months. Walk into a local and there it is staring at me. It was technically "used" so I was apprehensive because reviews for this pressing are... not good. It had all the inserts, and it looked unplayed so I took a chance. And holy crap you guys, it sounds great and only had a few little pops here and there that you'd expect from a Rainbo pressing. But I don't think I could have hand picked a better sounding copy of this pressing. I'm stunned, the vinyl gods smiled on me today.

Other one I picked up today. 3LP 45 RPM. Wow. this is a stunning pressing. I wish I could just crank this right now. Fantastic.
