Robert Crumb on Collectors

"We might need um, emergency surgery in the studio."

OMG I can't stop laughing.

That's pretty true to a point.

It does turn into a weird addiction.

Hey, if anyone has the "record collectors" party scene, place that on here as well. That part was totally funny.

"Tight cracks and little holes."

I knew a record collector years ago had like 50,000 billion rare-assed jazz records and shit. so many it was impossible for him to listen to them all, ever, it would take a thousand years. when he hit 60 years old he decided to sell the 'treasure'.

years of poor storage rendered 98% of the collection ruined. warped, mildewed etc.

it destroyed him.

Broke the record collecting addiction several years back.
I don't even enjoy record stores any more... I used to spend hours digging through everything.
It's a relief, a burden lifted.

I keep the collection lean and mean. Constantly selling off stuff I don't listen to anymore.
