Yeah, it's a Breville espresso machine. Love to have a cappuccino here and there, and the girlfriend likes her flavored lattes (hence the syrups!).

The booze shelves are probably a direct result of years of supporting Everton, ha.

All three of those large walnut cabinets under the box sets and audio equipment actually house my full vinyl collection (plus a stack or two on the floor you might can see in the photo that haven't been put away yet). I've been collecting vinyl for almost ten years now. Have probably 1,000 - 1,100 or so at the moment (plus a decent quantity of reel-to-reel tapes, cassettes, and CDs - vintage music formats and even some vintage equipment = a pretty big hobby for me). My goal in the new year is to properly go through and catalog them all.

When your done, there's a job here for 5 cents on the hour...

1k-1.1k vinyls, what's your taste?

It's honestly all over the place.

If I had to pick one particular favorite artist, I'd probably say Vince Guaraldi, which is not common, I know. I do like a lot of other jazz - especially of the cool / West Coast variety - Bill Evans, Dave Brubeck, etc., and I've also been getting a good bit of Japanese jazz stuff lately.

Also love what I guess would be termed classic rock - The Beatles, Bowie (as you can see in the photo), U2, etc. But I also listen to a lot of Sinatra, Bing Crosby, Tony Bennett - old-school crooners. A lot of K-pop too. And lately I've been getting into ambient and electronic music. All kinds of other random stuff mixed in there too.

So, yeah, not exactly a traditionally cohesive collection to say the least.

Here's my Discogs collection profile, if you want to see what I've gotten around to cataloging already (a lot of stuff in my wishlist is actually now in my collection, but hasn't been moved over): CrimsonToffee - Discogs
