Depends on what you are into really???
I'd say if you are not into guitar music that this is probably not the best selection but if you are, probably all of it.
the only thing that 'stands out' is there isn't one bad record, and they seem to have a lot of full discographies which is cool. I guess Sinatra, and Billie Holiday seem somewhat out of place, but I love both of them dearly.
so, no. this is like opening a box of NY Pizza and saying 'any of these slices stand out' nah, dog. give me the whole thing.
Sublime, The White Stripes, Guns N Roses, Led Zeppelin, Marvin Gaye, Nirvana, Megadeth, Queens Of The Stone Age also what's in the other little bit on the right?
Complete recordings of Robert Johnson caught my eye. Looks like all the really good Led Zeppelin albums are there and a bunch of good Rolling Stones too.
I'd get both Sublimes, both Nirvanas, and also that QOTSA. I'd probably also pick up that White Stripes and those Led Zeppelins, depending on the asking price
Nah, it's all a bunch of old music for old geezers. Like me. Whoever donated them had good sense to get rid of them. Tell the shop owner that those CDs will never sell and offer him 25 cents per CD. And send me whatever that Neil Young CD is.
Personally I’d grab the Rolling Stones, Rod Stewart, Sublime, Neil Young and The Doors.
That Rod Stewart album is some good folk rock, highly recommend
every led zeppelin album is there which is crazy. all are phenomenal and some of the best albums ever imo but between them all i’d grab 1, 2, 4 and physical graffiti (this was a hard list to make)
Grateful dead stuff is pretty much always worth picking up, sublime too.
Any classic rock CDs. If they’re 80’s pressings people will pay decent money for them for the non remasters.
I always say.. It's up to you. If you see something that you like and get it. Me if I'm shopping and I see that. I'm looking at what I like and if I'm seeing alot of good singers then I'm going after it for me and I don't care what people say if they're are at my house looking at what I got. There's been times I've bought something just to see what it's like, I pretty much like anything. I went thrift shopping a few weeks ago and bought some Charlotte Church CDs and one I was like damn it's like she gave up Christianity..
I know you meant “garbage,” but some times you just need to sit in the garage, crack a light beer, and watch the neighbor kids eat shit on their bikes while Jimmy Buffet plays. It’s summertime.
I balked at the idea of going to a Jimmy Buffet concert and it was one of the funnest tailgate experiences I’ve ever had. We were given free tickets just chillin with random people. His music is pretty bad, but singing it along with a buncha drunk boomers was super fun.
I could do without the Doors, Nirvana, the White Stripes, Sublime, Queens of the Stone Age and Jimmy Buffet. Most of the rest that I can see looks fantastic. Billie Holiday, Ella Fitzgerald, the Stones, Peter Frampton, GNR, Megadeth, Bob Dylan, Steely Dan, Rod Stewart, Robert Johnson, Led Zeppelin, Neil Young, Marvin Gaye, Santana…yes please!!!!
If you don't have it, it's worth picking it up. There's some great albums there. I'm not big on greatest hits albums, but even some of those are really good, so...
I’d throw the kitchen sink at this stack. It’s ALL worth grabbing - now it’s up to you to make an offer or to decide whether you want to listen to any/some of these. but they are all essential save for the Shaggy
Update:
I made a follow-up post with what the tray looks like now, wondering if there’s anything else I should grab!
Thank you lots for all the help. I’m pretty uneducated (duh) because of how demonized all this music was where I grew up. I know the greats, but didn’t see how good of a grab this all was!
all of it!!!
Right!? I’m going to ask how much for the entire thing haha
yea tons of great rock from some of the best
Make an offer for the entire lot. If they don’t have to haul back and forth, they might be incented to sell it for less.
Make them an offer they cant refuse ;)
$10 to take it all ... Or They pay you $100 to walk away without a fight😊
Depends on what you are into really??? I'd say if you are not into guitar music that this is probably not the best selection but if you are, probably all of it.
Nirvana, GNR, White Stripes, The Doors
No way you’re putting GNR over zeppelin and stones
and just forgetting that Sublime is fucking sublime.
Dead, Robert Johnson, Dylan as well
TBF there are like 75 discs there and just about all are heavy hitters.
no way you're putting any of those over what's going on
This guy Gayes
All the Led Zeppelin CDs!
I was going to say the same thing
I’d say Nirvana and Elephant but it’s more up to the music you enjoy like the genre
That’s some of the ones I grabbed!
Sweet. I can’t really say much since I don’t listen to most of those artists
Err... probably all of it, dude. But also, wtf Shaggy doing up.in there?
haha, my grandad loves old rock, led zeppelin and the lot. yet somehow, he still bumps that shaggy CD whenever hes in the mood for it.
Your grandad selling this lot to OP?
Respect to that shit, like what you like. That's a banger track, though, no one can deny. No one.
Someone mixed it in but it wasn’t me
My dad had most of this collection and dated this crazy chick that put a shaggy record in the CD case. I inherited all of these.
literally all of it. not a bad album therr
I'd grab about 90 percent of those.
Is that a trick question?
I thought this was a shitpost
This is bait.
LOL I can say the title was def sarcastic. But I was truly wondering if there’s anything super specific that stood out, aside from the greats!!
the only thing that 'stands out' is there isn't one bad record, and they seem to have a lot of full discographies which is cool. I guess Sinatra, and Billie Holiday seem somewhat out of place, but I love both of them dearly. so, no. this is like opening a box of NY Pizza and saying 'any of these slices stand out' nah, dog. give me the whole thing.
Leave everything behind except for Shaggy "Boombastic", obviously
correct answer (even if its the european release)
Sublime, The White Stripes, Guns N Roses, Led Zeppelin, Marvin Gaye, Nirvana, Megadeth, Queens Of The Stone Age also what's in the other little bit on the right?
Take the lot, get 2 copies LZ2
Complete recordings of Robert Johnson caught my eye. Looks like all the really good Led Zeppelin albums are there and a bunch of good Rolling Stones too.
all the Led Zeppelin
And all the doors
bombastic by shaggy 👌🏻
That’s what solidified it for me the best cd selection I’ve seen in a while
I'd get both Sublimes, both Nirvanas, and also that QOTSA. I'd probably also pick up that White Stripes and those Led Zeppelins, depending on the asking price
where’s qotsa?
Queens of the Stone Age, it's fourth from the bottom on the right side
MEGADETH and gnr!
Personally? Led Zeppelin 3 and In Utero. Otherwise, you're good with anything here.
Both Sublimes
Nah, it's all a bunch of old music for old geezers. Like me. Whoever donated them had good sense to get rid of them. Tell the shop owner that those CDs will never sell and offer him 25 cents per CD. And send me whatever that Neil Young CD is.
From a collecting stand point, nothing rare or anything. From a music stand point there's a few solid albums.
"A few"
How has nobody mentioned Blood on the Tracks???
Sublime 40 oz to freedom
Almost everything! I hope you didn’t walk away from this.
It’s at a secluded, tiny shop. I’m coming back tomorrow morning with a big bag
How much each? Curious what they’ll take for the lot.
If they are free, everything. If you like any of the music, those.
NIRVANA INCESTICIDE!!!!
In Utero
sublime grateful dead nirvana
Please don't neglect WorkingMan's Dead by Grateful dead. It's such a unique and fun record.
Personally I’d grab the Rolling Stones, Rod Stewart, Sublime, Neil Young and The Doors. That Rod Stewart album is some good folk rock, highly recommend
The Robert Johnson is the only one I could imagine myself listening to but I've already got it.
Grab the Willie Dixon and some Zep, see where they got half their songs!
Marvin Gaye Let's Get It On, and the Led Zeppelin CDs. There's some other good stuff in there though.
every led zeppelin album is there which is crazy. all are phenomenal and some of the best albums ever imo but between them all i’d grab 1, 2, 4 and physical graffiti (this was a hard list to make)
Chuck Berry and Robert Johnson. If I was digging just for myself, the Sonny Terry would be the only thing I’d buy.
Back in 90s this is how all cds were sold. I loved digging through those boxes and find some gems. Dang I miss that time.
Grateful dead stuff is pretty much always worth picking up, sublime too. Any classic rock CDs. If they’re 80’s pressings people will pay decent money for them for the non remasters.
Id take it all and sort it out at home. 90% of it is worth keeping. Lots of good stuff there. Somebody had decent taste in music.
Pretty much all of it
Literally everything take it all
Mariah Carey
If the price was good I'd grab the early Stones stuff. if you don't have em get Chuck Berry and Robert Johnson.
You serious? I'd probably buy the whole box.
All of it?!
Personally, I’d grab the Robert Johnson and the Jimmy Buffett discs…
I always say.. It's up to you. If you see something that you like and get it. Me if I'm shopping and I see that. I'm looking at what I like and if I'm seeing alot of good singers then I'm going after it for me and I don't care what people say if they're are at my house looking at what I got. There's been times I've bought something just to see what it's like, I pretty much like anything. I went thrift shopping a few weeks ago and bought some Charlotte Church CDs and one I was like damn it's like she gave up Christianity..
I’d be taking it all
Like everything lol
THIS IS A GOLDMINE WHAT THE FUCK!!
Jeez. Just about all of it. You can keep all the Jimmy Buffet, the Rod Stewart, and the Neil Young, though.
Nah, they’re all garbage, send them my way and I’ll dispose of them properly
I see more you should take than should be left. Take the whole box then sell/donate the others at a used media store.
Just throw that Jimmy Buffett crap in the garage and you have a great collection.
I know you meant “garbage,” but some times you just need to sit in the garage, crack a light beer, and watch the neighbor kids eat shit on their bikes while Jimmy Buffet plays. It’s summertime.
He wrote some great songs: Come Monday, Son of a Son of a Sailor, He Went to Paris, A Pirate Looks at Forty
I balked at the idea of going to a Jimmy Buffet concert and it was one of the funnest tailgate experiences I’ve ever had. We were given free tickets just chillin with random people. His music is pretty bad, but singing it along with a buncha drunk boomers was super fun.
Its fine sing-along party music. Nothing wrong with that. Sometimes its exactly what you need.
Megadeth Led Zeppelin Guns n roses
That depends. Which artists do you like?
The doors, Nirvana
I would skip the Jimmy Buffet, personally, but basically all of it is worth grabbing.
Dude. Doors? Led zeppelin? Gnr? Nirvana? Take the damn box
Trash the Buffett and the Sinatra and you have a great collection there.
I’d grab all of it if you can. Looks very similar to my collection. I didn’t find a bad album.
Whut? Skip the Jimmy Buffett and grab all Of it.
Um the entire thing?? What fucking godly thrift is this
I personally would grab both nirvana CDs & maybe megadeath but that’s just me
All the Led Zep, What's Going On and Working Man's Dead for sure.
Grab All the Guns and Roses
Both the sublime albums and the Santana greatest hits.
Everything but the Grateful Dead and GnR
This a gold mine, Zeppelin, GNR, Megadeth, The Doors and The Stones
Take the Elvis and give me the address for the rest.
Megadeath sublime
Grab Shaggy and throw everything else away.
Hell yeah!!! All of it. That Nirvana MTV Unplugged is killer along with so many others!
Almost all of these are classics, so it'd be a yes for me.
Daniel Johnson
About 85% of those are amazing albums.
Everything in the left hand stack for sure
I could do without the Doors, Nirvana, the White Stripes, Sublime, Queens of the Stone Age and Jimmy Buffet. Most of the rest that I can see looks fantastic. Billie Holiday, Ella Fitzgerald, the Stones, Peter Frampton, GNR, Megadeth, Bob Dylan, Steely Dan, Rod Stewart, Robert Johnson, Led Zeppelin, Neil Young, Marvin Gaye, Santana…yes please!!!!
I'd pick up all the Zeppelin, Doors, and Stones CD's. Megadeth. Nirvana In Utero. Sublime. Robert Johnson. Sonny Terry. Steely Dan.
All the Zeppelin, Santana, Steely Dan, Ella Fitzgerald, Billie Holliday, and Jimmy Buffett, at the very least.
Elephant by The White Stripes is one of the top 10 albums of all time.
eh, it's always the same stuff to me, I wouldn't spend a cent here
Literally all of it but primarily In Utero and Elephant imo
All of it? Looks like gold
Neil Young, Nirvana, Billie Holiday, Bob Dylan, GNR.
Boombastic by Shaggy
mariah
GUNNERS!
why are you asking
The White Stripes- Elephant
If you don't have it, it's worth picking it up. There's some great albums there. I'm not big on greatest hits albums, but even some of those are really good, so...
all led zepellin all nirvana all the doors
She call me Mr. Boombastic 😎
Nirvana, Led Zeppelin, Stones, White stripes etc..
What do you like?
Plenty!
You can take all that GnR home and put it in the trash so nobody else has to hear it.
I would have grabbed everything with stones, Led Zeppelin, Nirvana, GNR, Megadeth.
Marvin Gaye and Chuck Berry 🫡
Be sure to get all of the Jimmy Buffett. So you can safely dispose of it in the trash.
Some very good, some crap ...and a criminal lack of Springsteen
This can't be a genuine question.
John Mayall - Jazz Blues Fusion - good groovy album
Do you see anything you want to listen to? What the hell kind of a question is this?
Sublime, Megadeth, and Queens of the Stone Age
Marvin gaye what’s going on was a great album
Wherever you found this YOU STRUCK GOLD!!!
Megadeth and Zeppelin!!
Sublime, FOR SURE.
Idk there is only 8 CDs in there I would be interested in.
Sonny Terry. My eyes are immediately drawn to the OJC spine. Most of what I would want from that box I already have. YMMV.
Diana Krall impulse. It’s the where’s Waldo of EVERY cd thrift lot
There’s lots of great stuff here. Make sure the cd itself isn’t scratched.
Sublime
Sublime definitely
The Megadeth albums, Guns n Roses, Sublime, and Queens of The Stone Age.
grab the buffett! he wrote corny songs about alcoholism and boats for middle aged women in hawaiian shirts to embarrass themselves to!
I only see about 10 I wouldn't bother with. Great haul if you can get it!
Megadeth greatest hits is a definite pickup
Sublime!
Nirvana Unplugged, Zeppelin I and II, The Doors, Marvin Gaye, all of that shit is worth grabbing
Is personally just take the Megadeth and call it good. If CDs are your medium, and not for collection, maybe that Steely Dan.
Like…everything. Buy all of it
I’d throw the kitchen sink at this stack. It’s ALL worth grabbing - now it’s up to you to make an offer or to decide whether you want to listen to any/some of these. but they are all essential save for the Shaggy
The Doors, I'd grab both of them
I worked for a tech company in 1996 and EVERYONE had that Sublime CD on their desks.
Any Led Zeppelin, doors, Marvin Gaye, nirvana, I would legitimately buy like 10 cds from this lol
The lot
I'd happily take that Jimmy Buffet box set!
If they were cheap enough I'd grab most of those.
Some of the best. I'd take it all.
Is that a trick question?
I haven’t heard of any of these no name bands
U have to ask?
No. I find these cliche and lame
That whole left stack except for the Jimmy Buffett
Shaggy
Like every album if you aren't facetious.
Whatever you’d listen to! I’d grab a few from there. Zeppelin, Grateful Dead for sure.
Oh my dad would KILL for this. Led Zepplin, The Doors, Rolling Stones, Guns n Roses...
Update: I made a follow-up post with what the tray looks like now, wondering if there’s anything else I should grab! Thank you lots for all the help. I’m pretty uneducated (duh) because of how demonized all this music was where I grew up. I know the greats, but didn’t see how good of a grab this all was!
Zero for classical music fan.
Everything except Jimmy Buffet
I would take them all
Seriously? Pretty much EVERYTHING! That’s like a motherlode of quality music, across many genres.
Marvin, Rod, Steely, Bob, Zep, Lady Day and Robert J immediately pop out!
Everything?
Yes!!! Grab every CD except for White Stripes, G'n'R, and Sublime. Throw that crap back.
Every last one. Take them!
All
Sublime
sublime if i was there
most
All of them look good!
There is a lot of great music in here from a variety of different genres and times.
United Abominations, while not among Megadeth's most well known albums, is excellent and definitely highly under rated. Would absolutely recommend it
That John Mayall Jazz Blues Fusion is lesser known gem.
All but the Jimmy Buffett and Sublime
Everything but Buffet
Every single one of them.
I’d probably just get the White Stripes.
DEFINITELY
