such as 45s and 78s? And do you listen to them? Or is it
just CD's now. Hubby and I have quite a few records and
we are keeping them. We still listen to them. Kingston Trio,
Judy Collins, Joan Baez, Peter, Paul and Mary, John Denver.
and others.

You bet that I still have all my LP's. I have the 45s, 78s and the 33s as well. I still have the record player that plays them as well.
I live in a tiny 8 X 30 travel trailer now, so I don't have room in here for the player and LPs, so they are all in storage right now until a later day when I have the room for them.
I was collecting all these back when I was a teenager and I am now 51. I have now clue as to what all of them are. I would say that I have over 100 LPs right now.
As far as CDs go, I have a few of them as well. I also still have my cassettes (several) and I also still have my 8-track tapes too.

Sure do. A few 78s, lots of 45s and 33 1/3s. Still have a decent truntable that can play at least the 45s and LPs. Got a lot of Cds too. I used to collect records, haven't done that for a while. I've just started transferring some of my LPs and 45s to CD. I've been able to remove the clicks and pops and they sound just like new.

Yes, I have stacks and stacks of vinyl 33rpms, and a few 45s kicking around. But, my turntable is not working. I was considering getting rid of a lot of the records, but some of the classical ones were never re-done for CD, so I'm keeping them. On vinyl, I have an equal split between classical and popular, including everything (including re-issues) of Aretha Franklin's music, and a collection by the interesting vocalist, Yma Sumac, among others. I'll even admit to owning Carol Burnett's album!

We have many LP albums and some haven't been opened yet because my husband wants to "save" them. The problem is we don't have a working turntable.
He has all the early Beatles and a lot of the singers and groups from the 70's. I have Elvis and Barbra Streisand and some from the 50's and 60's that I can't remember the names .

No more 45's or 78's. I have GI Blues and Kingston Trio, Pat Boone on LP's. I wanted to give them the heave-ho years ago, but hubby pulled them outa the rubbish.

Don't listen to them much but have entirely too many of all speeds (the wife has about 625 LP's she refuses to get rid of before she transfer some of the songs to reel-to-reel, ooops then it was transfers to cassettes , ooops now she's going to burn them to cd's "when she gets time") but tomorrow never comes..... The Artists you mention are some of my favorites,
Got a little Bob Dylan or Gordan Lightfoot ?
