Amanda Jackson’s dad might have gotten a little carried away.
What began as a Nova Scotia teenager’s small library of 20 or so country music records grew over the next six decades to roughly 8,000 albums!
The family of the late Murray Deal was left with one question: what to do with their dad’s impressive collection?
Amanda says it wasn’t easy to decide to sell the eclectic collection, which contains music from as early as the ’40s right up to the 2000s, noting her dad’s favourite artist was Hank Williams. The collection also includes artists such as Merle Haggard, Dolly Parton and Johnny Cash.
She’s asking for $5,000 for the entire collection and isn’t willing to see it torn apart. Her dad grew up in Fairview, Nova Scotia and died in the summer of 2018.
Amanda says to the family, it’s priceless and the most important thing is that it goes to somebody that will love it and appreciate it.
What a collection!
