Vinyl Record Albums

Is there any way to tell whether a vinyl released under Man’s Ruin Records is a fake or real?

I have been looking at getting all the old Queens Of The Stone Age and Desert Sessions albums on vinyl, and I have been told that there are some fake ones out there.

Did reel-to-reel tapes have superior sound quality than LPs back in the 60s and 70s?

I want to get my hands on an old reel-to-reel tape player so I can see what my favorite albums sounded like on tape back when they were originally released. I know nothing about the reel-to-reel format, but it makes sense to me that they would have superior sound quality over vinyl records.

What percentage of vinyl records, do you think, has been made available on CD over the years?

Help me out here. I’m trying to justify my obsession with vinyl. Are there really thousands of albums that came out on vinyl that were never made available on CD?
Shortly before posting this question I had gone out and bought a collection of around 300 LP’s. I like sampling rare, abstract music in my production and I think it’s awesome when I google a record I just bought and get no results. Plus, sonically, vinyl wins by a landslide, at 24 bit 192khz, while CD’s are limited to 16bit 44.1khz and cannot play the original waveform.

What is the strangest thing you keep in your garage?

Our strangest thing is 5 seperate stacks of old vinyl albums
each about 5 ft. high, and progressively more warped by the year.
Every record I ever bought from stores new or flea markets and swap stores used. Haven’t played them since cd’s got popular about 18 years now. Also, an unused bag of fertilizer about 20 years old has been sitting mysteriously in the same place.
The strangest thing I have ever heard anyone keep in a garage
is a Chimpanzee(very true story). The guy worked watchman
for an animal lab, and rescued this chimp, smuggling him out before he quit. The chimp lived not so happily in the garage
for 4 years.It was one of those you had to see it to believe it things.
He would toss food in, and keep it aerated. The chimp was quite mean, and would attack anyone who entered. He obviously wasn’t happy in the garage, but considering the alternative at the clinic, it could have been worse. Eventually the chimp died either of boredom or lonliness, and was buried in the yard.
