I think any vinyl junkie can appreciate this:

The entire documentary is there. After part one finishes it seamlessly jumps to the next part.

Here's an accompanying article from about 10 years ago. I think I enjoyed reading it as much as I enjoyed watching the short film:

Great book about record collecting. Has lots of older guys who collect 78s including R Crumb.
Also has Cut Chemist, dude from REM, dude from Sonic Youth, and some other big record collectors.
Pretty good.

I heard John Cougar Melloncamp has an insane record collection.

good watch, it was great to see that kinda motivation for digging. kind of inspiring.

great documentary.
i thought some of my shit was rare until i saw the stuff he's digging up.

a few years ago, my girlfriend interviewed a guy in dc who had the world's largest porno collection (his claim) and was donating to it the museum of modern art.
i went along for the interview. got there and discovered he also had an enormous collection of blues records.
