Yep - I can relate. I got all my dad's records and reel-to-reels in my parents' divorce settlement - he had all styles and genres from 50's onward (I think I developed my eclectic taste in music from him). I also acquired my grandmother's more modest collection of 30's and 40's big band stuff, that I love. Not to mention all 300+ of my cassettes - I went through a phase of rebelion where I refused to buy CDs after they replaced LPs and bought cassettes, instead.
