“Breadcrumbs”

Heh.

Funny guy.

Luckily, I not only have all my old albums, I also have two regular turntables and two USB to MP3 tables.

If memory serves, as a teen, I paid $10 for Welcome To My Nightmare, back when JC Penney still sold records.

The vinyl being sold today is $35 and up.

Even the few used vinyl stores around want crazy amounts for a “passe’” medium.

I hate streaming.

All my stuff is on my iPods.

Probably my best vinyl is the gatefold pop-up Tull album, “Stand Up”.

You open it and Ian and the boys spring to life.

They don’t make neat stuff like that anymore.

I was in a Best Buy store recently and was surprised to find a small display of vinyl LPs. Most were what are known as “ classic rock”. I expected to be shocked by the prices, but one that I looked at was only $17.95, and that was a double LP. Considering inflation, that wasn’t bad.
