Hi, I’m Joel.
Music has been part of my life for more than fifty years. What began with buying my first records as a teenager grew into a lifelong passion for collecting, discovering artists, attending concerts, and sharing great music with others.
JAS Limited grew naturally from that lifelong passion. Every record I sell is personally cleaned, play-tested, accurately graded, and securely packaged because I believe collectors deserve to know exactly what they’re buying.
From my collection to yours—that’s what JAS Limited is all about.
A Lifetime of Music
Music has been the soundtrack to every stage of my life. I’ve spent decades exploring record stores, attending concerts, discovering overlooked albums, and building a collection that reflects a lifetime of listening rather than simply owning records.
Along the way I’ve been fortunate enough to see legendary artists perform—from Bruce Springsteen in his early years to more than twenty Santana concerts and about twenty-five Grateful Dead shows.
Today, every record I list reflects that same appreciation. Whether it’s a common favorite or a hard-to-find pressing, I clean it, play-test it, grade it accurately, and package it the way I’d want to receive it myself.
Artists That Never Left My Turntable
These artists have been part of my musical journey for decades. They’re the records I return to again and again—the ones I continue to revisit, recommend, and collect.
- Grateful Dead
- Santana
- Pat Metheny
- Jackson Browne
- Van Morrison
- Joni Mitchell
- Mark Knopfler
- Miles Davis
Those artists continue to inspire what I listen to today—and you’ll see many of them featured in my Now Spinning posts and throughout the store.
More Than a Store
Buying Collections
I enjoy rescuing collections that have been loved for decades and finding them new homes.
Grading Matters
Every record is professionally cleaned, play-tested, and honestly graded. I’d rather lose a sale than overstate the condition of an album.
From My Collection to Yours
Whether it’s a common favorite or a rare first pressing, I package every order the same way I’d want it to arrive at my own doorstep.
Why JAS?
Friends have asked me why I started another business after spending years in the travel industry. The answer is simple: music has always been home. Selling records gives me the chance to spend every day surrounded by albums I love while helping them find their next collector. Every box that leaves here is another piece of music history continuing its journey.
