Recently, I was brousing through the local Kemp Mill Record store here in
College Park, (Kemp Mill is a local discount record store), I saw several
Original Master Recordings (by Mobil Fidelity Sound Labs) in the cutouts
bin! They had maybe 20 selections at prices of $6.99 and $7.99. I
bought six of these that I didn't already have, and when I was paying for
them I asked the cashier why they were in the cutouts bin. She said that
the reason for the ultra-cheap price was because of the competition from
CD's. She said that anyone who was willing to pay $14-$18 for an album
would probably rather buy the CD version instead. She said she expects
to get an even larger selection of these Original Master Recordings in
the near future.
So for those of you who still enjoy audiophile LP's, watch the cutout bin
in your local discount record store, you may find some really great
bargains!!
