Sad but true story:  years ago a friend (no names but some of you 
know him) sold all his Who and Who-related vinyl, a couple milk 
crates' worth, including near-mint copies of all the Meher Baba 
albums, hard-to-find boots, etc., during a fade in his interest and 
competition from other interests (family, job, etc.). A few years 
later, he renewed his interest in The Who, and is still trying to 
replace some of the stuff.

So the moral is:  keep all your stuff...eventually some of it will 
make other fans happy and the rest will occupy its own niche in a 
landfill somewhere.
