Guest alison Posted March 22, 2005 Posted March 22, 2005 It was mentioned on another thread......assume you dont have a husband or wife or children to leave your records to......what would you want to happen to them ? For many of us, our collections are our most prized sentimental asset as well as possibly being worth a few quid. So would you have it written into your will for your executor to contact Manship and flog the lot for the benefit of your long lost cousin or his glue sniffing son, or list them individually leaving specific records to friends that would really appreciate them. Or are you timing the peaks and troughs of the sales market to get rid before that last tune of the night is played ? Just morbidly curious. (I think it would be nice if there was a museum or a curator which would look after them for prosperity)
TheBigO Posted March 22, 2005 Posted March 22, 2005 I've left a few too friends and the rest will be going to Manship as he would get the best price for them and thus my kids, soon to be 4 of them!, would at least have some cash from their strange Dad with the weird plastic vinyl things :-)

Craig W Posted March 22, 2005 Posted March 22, 2005 This is all assuming there will be a market & demand for this type of music in 20 / 30 / 40 years time.

Is morbid, but I've already left instructions on that one. :graynone:
Guest Brian Ellis Posted March 22, 2005 Posted March 22, 2005 So would you have it written into your will for your executor to contact Manship and flog the lot link I wouldn't write them into your will as Gordon Brown is likely to syphon off 40% of their value. Just make sure that whoever you want to get benefit from them clearly knows about them and how you want them disposed of. I wonder which would be first record that Gordon Brown takes - maybe Al Kent's 'You Gotta Pay the Price'? Brian
Guest Posted March 22, 2005 Posted March 22, 2005 Thanks for you concern stevie,never had speeding fine before but they have tried ,oh records are like tribbles (star-trek) little furry things that multiply and take over,one day i wont get in my house what do i mean,their house later little-stevie Ken link :Fck_off_by_nulltarget:
Little-stevie Posted March 22, 2005 Posted March 22, 2005 You should have two boxes.One with the good stuff tucked away and one with you're stardust collection on view The funeral tunes things been covered in the past i think..I'm sure a thread can be found..

Simsy Posted March 22, 2005 Posted March 22, 2005 If anything happens to you, can I have first dibs on your Luther Ingram bruv?

Is morbid, but I've already left instructions on that one. :graynone: link There lies an ethical question, try finding a cremetorium with a deck, and would you want your "deep and meaningful" track played on CD. Am I splitting hairs here?
