Wonderful to get to hear from so many different voices connected to the joys of vinyl. It makes me want to go right now to Amoeba and browse the racks!

Thank you so much, Brad! I'm really glad you enjoyed. It was such an honour to be featured, and I love how nicely these different "vinyl voices" complement each other. Thanks again!

great post and glad i found you

as for the quiz - all of the above

i see this as not a trend but a magnetic throwback that is multi-sensory listening in an isolated listening environment

as a teenager, the record shop(s) were mandatory hangouts. going back to a dark room plastered with pullout posters of rockers and hotties to listen to and read cover to cover the covers and blast each record we bought (or stole)
