Contents sales are always bittersweet. Someone is moving away or has passed away, and outsiders come in like vultures to scavenge through a house filled with memories. The bittersweet part becomes especially obvious as people try to haggle the price of goods that they're already getting very cheap.
That being said, I find myself very lucky to have picked up six Joni Mitchell LP's and one John & Yoko LP, Double Fantasy from a content sale this afternoon. Song to a Seagull, Clouds, Ladies of the Canyon, Blue, For the Roses, and The Hissing of Summer Lawns were the Joni records... and I can't really complain about not getting a Court & Spark in there, but it would have been nice to have her first six instead of just first five.
I can't wait to spin a couple of these on this beautiful autumn day!
