At one time the scene was focused on good records, many of which just happened to be rare
Yes this is very true of the 70's and 80's when fresh tunes were turning up by the box load ,and lots of new releases were played alongside the rareuns .. Today Everything goes to auction , people are more aware of the money records ,and seem to be impressed by expensive auction records in playlists.. Its mainly quite boring now IMO unless its a good social !! ..
