D'oh.......Oh well, my finger was getting tired from spinning the disks anyway, so I'll just cut my losses and go back to trying to play Beta tapes in my VCR. ;)

DANG! Just missed out on a dirt cheap Quadrophenia auction on eBay. Easily one of my top albums of all time, but I only have it on CD.

Quad is unbelievable on vinyl, but you have to get a good pressing. Who records can be so finicky between pressings. Mine is an original German Polydor and blows the CD (which is a really good mastering) out of the water.

I love my Quad copy of Jefferson Airplane's "Volunteers".

I've been buying a lot of vinyl lately. Trying to get a decent collection started up. Unfortunately I haven't found any good sales outside the web. Went to Goodwill and didn't find a thing, were as usually there is a lot of gold.

"The other versions will disappear. Even the 35 million tapes of Star Wars out there won’t last more than 30 or 40 years. A hundred years from now, the only version of the movie that anyone will remember will be the DVD version [of the Special Edition], and you’ll be able to project it on a 20’ by 40’ screen with perfect quality. I think it’s the director’s prerogative, not the studio’s to go back and reinvent a movie." - George Lucas

I remember my parents owning some vinyl records back when I was five-years-old or so - don't know the titles, though - but no record player. They probably pawned the thing so they could have money to buy pot with.
