Extensive and Eclectic and we hear them as is with scratches, crackles and pops.
Being a radio and mobile DJ for a decade and a half, I collected several hundred albums. I had nothing on my dad who owned more than 500 (33 1/3) LPs and over 100 78 RPMs at the time of his death in December 2019. I had no idea he had so many. We found them spread all over the house when we prepared for the estate sale. I went through every one and categorized them on an app called Discogs. I thought so many were unique, I decided to start a podcast called Spinning My Dad’s Vinyl. Each episode will feature an album. I’ll tell stories about the family listening to these albums and I’ll give other info about the album and the time it was released.

My Dad's Greatest HitsThis will be my last regularly scheduled weekly episode. We’ll talk about that as we go along.
One of the last songs my dad heard in his hospital bed the day he died and the one we played as we wheeled his casket out of the church was the Frank Sinatra song, My Way. It’s how my dad lived his life. And it’s how I will bring this show to a close. I’ll use paraphrased lyrics from the song.
So Yes, the end is near.My friend, I'll say it clear.
Strap in. This is going to be a fun musical ride.
So, get ready to hear 20 songs that had meaning to my father, my family, and me in Volume 250: Fading Out My Way.
