Here’s How You Can Score Records from the Vinyl Collection of Questlove

In time for Record Store Day, Questlove is auctioning off some of his favorite vinyl records from his personal collection.

If you’ve always wanted to score records from Questlove’s vaunted vinyl collection, you’re in luck. In time for Record Store Day, the musician and Oscar-winning directer — who owns more than 200,000 records — will host a Whatnot livestream on Friday (April 7) where he’ll auction off 50-year-old-plus soul jazz grails from his personal collection.

What will be selections from Quest’s extensive record collection? James Brown’s 1971 album Hot Pants; The Ohio Players’ 1973 classic Ecstasy; Kool & the Gang’s 1972 LP Music Is the Message; The Soul Searchers 1974 staple Salt of the Earth; and more. All proceeds from the auction will benefit sustainable food organization Future of Food Entrepreneurship Program and culinary-focused nonprofit Food Education Fund.
