LAINE'S RECORDS
Start Here

Anyone who knows me would say that collecting records is a main facet of my identity. Because I would agree with this statement, I have decided to focus on my record collection for this page. I have over 2000 12" LPs, but here I wish to detail only 100 of my most valuable records. In order to determine value I used four sources: Jerry Osbourne's Rockin' Records, The 2003 Goldmine Price Guide to Collecting Records, Ebay, and my own knowledge that comes from collecting records for 10 years and working in a record store for seven. In some instances I chose to put a slightly less valuable record in place of a more valuable record simply based upon personal preference. I realize that this kind of defeats the purpose of the "100 most valuable" concept, but it is, after all, MY identity. So, click a link to begin the trip, or just click "start here" and begin that way.
