I have pretty much the entire Frank Zappa catalogue on vinyl that I acquired from a friend. He moved back up north from FL, and the truck he rented had a water leak, and it was hurricane season. This one crate of albums was literally sitting on the wheel-well of the truck where the water was getting in, so they got soaked. Of course, this didn't get noticed until two or three weeks after he was getting settled in--so they sat there damp/wet in the crate all that time. He was just going to pitch them all. I took them, cleaned them all and replaced the inner and outer sleeves with plain white covers and printed stickers with all relevant information. Sure--I lost all of the artwork and liner notes, but the vinyl is in great shape (and you don't listen to the covers/sleeves).
