I found this book to be extremely informative, even though it may be missing many artists and albums in its price guide. The information pertaining to what to look for and what *not* to look for helped me immensely when I decided that I wanted to become a collector of vinyl.

5.0 out of 5 stars A great, readable book with a lot of good information, February 2, 1996

By A Customer

This review is from: Goldmine's Price Guide to Collectible Record Albums (Paperback)

Umphred is pretty sharp and his book is too. There are loads of good pictures and a host of informative essays in the front. The one about the Beatles and about the Dylan rarities are notable, as well as his list of the 100 most valuable albums. My collection is not that big, but I love this book and bought it even though a friend had already lent it to me. Enjoy
