After a near-50-year search, this week Christopher Long finally brings (back) home a well-cared-for used LP copy of Behind Closed Doors — the iconic 1973 breakout record from country music legend Charlie Rich — for three bucks.

This week, Christopher Long recounts the time he was blessed with a bounty of beautiful vintage LPs from a wonderful bygone era — a massive haul that included the instant crown jewel of his classic crooner collection: an original 1958 mono pressing of Tony’s Greatest Hits. And he got it ALL for FREE!

In this installment, Christopher Long STEALS his sister’s long-lost original vinyl copy of the self-titled 1975 Daryl Hall & John Oates breakout album, from the family storage garage.
