VO-BB - 20 YEARS OLD!

Bill · Guest

I still have my Onkyo direct drive Turntable in the original box sitting in storage. Put it away when we started having kids and they were romping around. Tub of vinyl as well that had been stored at my parents house until Dad died and Mom sold it, now its sitting around waiting for me to transfer to disc. Some day maybe.

I miss the vinyl days, lying on the floor reading the liner notes, these days my eyes are too old to read the liner notes on most CD pakages, and nevermind the liner notes on mp3s' Gasp

just not the same experience.

USB lavalamp??? to get that special vibe happenin'

My one favorite unique LP is my Monty Python album that has 3 sides.

Yes, the back side of the album as 2 sets of grooves. Depending on where you drop the stylus determines which track you get.

The one LP I just *had* to go digital with was Pac-Man Fever. Call me crazy, but I love it. You know, in that way you love things you shouldn't love.

Actually, LaLa.com has 8 of the Dr. Seuss CD's available, two of the Bugs Bunny "You Don't Know Doc" series, a dozen Monty Python records, and hundreds of Disney CD's. No Rocky and Bullwinkle shows though.

Does anybody remember the period of time when there were a slew of picture disks and colored vinyl releases? I have an incredible collection of those from the '70's. Very fun stuff indeed.

My brother has a few of those colored vinyl albums. A couple of them are sort of tie-dyed looking. I forget which artists they are, but they were definitely from the 60s.

Do you remember the 45 of Strawberry Letter 23? It was scented. I don't know if the album was.

I remember the Bobby Caldwell record What You Won't Do for Love that was red, and shaped kinda like a heart, released for Valentine's Day 1978.

I have Styx-Paradise Theater with the laser etched art on the B-side. Also on the B-side there is no label, so the entire side is black. When you shine a flashlight on it, LOTS 'o colors appear...very cool cool

The art, by the way, is from the album cover.
