I know it sounds a bit scratchy and it's not very comfortable to use, but how can you resist the charm of an old record player?
My vinyl collection is still a bit small, but it's so much fun, whenever I have the time, listening to these old songs. Just like every collector, it's become a sort of challenge for me finding just the record I'm looking for, and this too is part of the game. When I put a record on, I think about the kid it must have belonged to, and wonder what listening to that music meant to him or her. I like to think that, for kids of that time, those musicians were real heroes, surrounded by an aura of mystery, and buying the much-longed-for record became some sort of event. Vinyls are like my personal time machine.
Isn't it all so romantic?
