Records, ranging from mostly 45s, LPs, and 78s from the 50's through to the present, primarily focusing on 50's and 60's.

It's huge size and John's recall of all the particulars of anything and everything in his collection; such as, how many copies he has of a record, their condition, year it was originally recorded, who performed it and wrote it, what label it was on, if it's the original label, etc.

John has anywhere from 150,000 to 200,000 records.

John has thousands of boxes, containing all sleeved records that are cataloged and on shelves throughout the house, mainly in spare rooms of the house.

Because I grew up listening to him play records from his favorite 50s and 60s era, I am familiar with a lot of music from periods prior to my birth. I have a wide range of music styles that I enjoy listening to because of this exposure. John has a wealth of knowledge, that others often come to him to discuss history of music/records and compare collections.
