http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=140206309...
The Most Viewed and Watched Listing Ever on eBay!
From Thomas Edison to American Idol, this is the complete history of the music that shaped and defined five generations. 3 million records and 300,000
CDs containing more than 6 million song titles. It's the undisputed largest collection of recorded music in the world. About half of the recordings
are new and never played, and every genre of 20th century music is represented. There are countless rare recordings worth hundreds, or even thousands
of dollars each on the collectibles market. Organized and cataloged, the collection is meticulously maintained and housed in a climate-controlled
warehouse. The estimated value of this amazing collection is more than $50 million.

I was just about to post this haha. That shit is nuts. If the dude got someone (I wish I was his son haha) to sell his records he could make over 50
million easily.

Someone will bid because they know they could stand to make a lot of money off it.

Would suck crazy dick if he only got $3m from it, years ago he was offered $29m for it I read on one of the sites they put up for this but he was
still doing good financially and was into collecting.
A lot of people ask me what kind of music I like. I love "soul music". My "soul music" isn’t a style, genre or niche. It’s music that is genuine. It’s
a painful lyric, a dirty bassline, it’s a harrowing vocal, it’s feedback, it’s an anthem, it’s a love song, it’s anarchy. I’ve got my personal
favourites but in the end it doesn’t matter who or where it comes from... so long as it’s good and it's real.

Each aspect of the soul has it's own part to play, but the ideal is harmonious agreement with reason and control.

times came for the family.

I met a guy about 10 years back who had a huge music collection. He had to build an additional room onto his house for it. It was an amazing
collection. Nothing close to what this guy is selling though.
