Anybody collecting vinyl (records and albums)? Which artists?  |
| |
|  My daughters came across one of my old LP's and asked what it was. Seeing a teaching moment, I told them about turntables (what's THAT, dad?).
But then I said how we would put a needle onto this spinning piece of vinyl and one - - with horror in her eyes asked me... you would put a needle on it ... on PURPOSE?
Anybody who knows how vinyl records work ... 33's, 45's or 78's... please write in and send me a friend request and/or reply here and let me know if you are collecting vinyl.
Thanks, folks...

| |  Hell, I purchase NEW releases on vinyl all the time.
My latest acquisition is the double LP release from the band Chickenfoot.

| |  I don't collect them really but I have held onto mine, mostly for sentimental reasons I guess. Your discussion made me think about when we moved into this house, our youngest was only about 6 years old and when he saw the stack of albums, he wanted to know where we kept the cd player that they fit in. I haven't played them in years because I can't locate a needle for the old turntable we have in the basement.

| | Look online. You can actually purchase new turntables for less than $100 if you can't locate a stylus, or you can replace the entire cartridge assembly for $30-40. | | | |

| | Thanks for the idea lamb, I'll do that..I didn't think I would ever hear music coming from this old Kenwood again, it would be nice to hear my old Black Sabbath albums again. | | | |

| |  I wouldn't say I'm collecting vinyl, but I still have all the records I bought in the '60s and '70s when they were pretty much the only medium there was for music. (Shamefully, I also still have a number of 8-track tapes that I keep holding on to... maybe I'm hoping a Museum of Outdated Technology will call me and offer me money to add them to their collection? LOL...)
I still have two turntables, though neither has been connected in years.

| |  I Love vinyl for many reasons. I first got a passion for collecting when a friend got me into spinning and mixing records. There's just something about the feel of a record sliding across the needle. And the tones are much warmer and richer. Also, I'm a big fan of album art, something that has long been lost in the age of mp3's.

| |  Haha, your daughters are adorable!
My father still has a lot of vinyls and listens to them from time to time.
Flashdance, Bob Dylan, Steeleye Span, Fabrizio de Andrè (famous Italian singer and songwriter), etc.
I love those vinyl albums as well.
