There's something to vinyl... Don't know what though
Spent an evening with a mate a couple of months back going through his LP's with a fairly basic player (I think we plugged it into the TV's analogue in for lack of any better speakers.
He had Waayyy too many 'Top of the Pops' albums though, seems he had a 'thing' for Legs Eleven.
I think Vinyl makes you lisiten more, with digital, you can flick 'next' way to easily at the slightest glint of risng boredom, with vinyl, you've gone to all the effort of carefully getting the LP out of its sleeve and onto the plate, lining up the spindle with the hole, then carefully lining up the needle and lowering it (gently) onto the surface. I think 60% of the 'pleasure' of vinyl is relief at having managed that task.
I kind regret giving away my old albums, but not too much, I have too much fun with Music Player Daemon.
Biting the hand that feeds IT
