Yeah...I'm bout reveal the spot in a few....trying to get some pics loaded so you will have an idea of "DAMN AM I IN THE RIGHT SPOT??" or not.....
Now heres my disclaimer....I am only TELLING you this cause we all share the same craft, and I cannot keep all these records...just too many.
2nd, Dig through the pile at your own risk for I see it as abandoned, and or trash. looks like these records have been out there for over a month. I stayed there for 20 mins just going through 2 boxes about the size of a footlocker and didnt make a DENT in the pile... If you get in trouble? Don't say I sent you there, I'm just telling you that there are some records, Vinyl what have you, that looks like its being thrown away. I haven't been there since Saturday so the days are numbered as to how long they will be there.
Soon as my Cellphone delivers my pics to my email, I will post you Digs I found, The Records that have been abandoned, the picture of the FRONT of the place, and the REAR of the place, and an ADDRESS that you can MAPQUEST along with the phone # of the business, which has an answering machine which I have left several messeges and got no call back.
ALL THIS.....For Yall. My diggers!
I am getting ready to go home for the day since I am at work. by the time
I finish my 90 mile commute home, I should have the pics so stay tuned.
Some time tonight I will update this post.

sorry man ....but those records looked wrecked....thats a same.
i'm sure the vinyl is still good on some but there's prolly pits in them.
man if you only would have been there sooner, and if you keep collecting you will soon have that many records too dont worry.

Only on some them the covers are wrecked.... The records inside a like New Old Stock...almost New and some looked like they have never had a needle on them...You know that New vinyl Shine?...Most of the records I found were like that. 4 earth wind and fire albums, all useable but a couple of them part of the label is missing on one side, but the other side is perfect and they ALL cleaned up ok... out of the 90 or so records I have gone through only 3 were just totally Phucked or cracked or something I had no intrest in. I can't take on any more. I know theres some good stuff there I just don't have the time or room to store anymore vinyl....
Wifey is already Pissed!!

I know exactly where West Lee street is. I used to go to Gboro all the time when I lived in Raleigh. Might have to take that trip up to Raleigh to see my mom. :)
