Kept them in a crate for when I moved to where I am now. During my younger years, I had put together a good "budge audiophile" system that got tied into my home theater. I have a bunch of my dad's old records (he had Miles Davis, Horace Silver, BB King, Stan Getz, Ramsey Lewis, etc). I never got chance to find a good place to put it all back together after I moved (too many other hobbies going at the moment ).

Way back when I worked at my college radio station, I used to go into their album library and dig similar ones out to run over the air and got lots of "wow thank you" calls!
