As for LPs across genres know that anything you need/want to sell I'd be happy to provide a loving home for or find someone else who could (and give you similarly great prices).
I'm told Dusty Groove buys CD collections and pays very well. You might want to look into them, especially as they carry your new releases and Rick certainly seems to respect your ear.
Yeah, it's a shit-show. My folks are down there and hunkered but it doesn't look good (FWIW they are in Montrose, not too far from Buffalo Bayou/Allen Parkway). Unbelievable devastation.
