   2000 45's is quite a haul.   
      
   I have about 500 45's.  Back in my day [and pre-highschool age]     
   I didn't have any easy  resources to investigate/study music     
   groups and songs.  I'd just visit a local shop in town that had     
   several waste-height "bins" of 45's and I'd just sift through     
   them until I'd see what piqued my interest.  Another     
   alternative was to give my mom a list of songs I was interested     
   in having heard them on the radio, and she'd give the list to     
   someone working at Sam The Reord Man in downtown Toronto when     
   she was still travelling to Toronto every week.
