Here are some records I proudly own. They are 45's unless otherwise noted. They are in no particular order. They are in all different conditions. If anyone has any info on the collectability or worth, or has any interesting comments, praises, criticism, or info about any of these records, feel free to e-mail BwanaDon@webtv.net. As far as selling any, that's still up in the air at this time.

Page under construction, I should have some titles here soon. Check often as I will add little by little as time permits.
