I also have a small vinyl collection.  I had a few albums from back when
I was younger.  In more recent times, I would sometimes drop by a local
"flea market store" or the Goodwill to see what they had.  I have found a
lot of old Herb Alpert & the Tijuana Brass records that way, as well as
some from Jimmy Dorsey, Tommy Dorsey, and a few rock classics, too.
 
I have not done that for a few years, since pre-COVID, in part because I
found myself having less time to listen to them.

Back then, the flea market store had a booth with tons of old vinyl.  I
suspect the booth owner (who was never there when I was) may have
liquidated a stock from ome or more radio stations as I would
occassionally find a "radio only" copy of something, but never something
I was interested in.
