Records make the moving process a near Olympic training session!! The artform of transporting vinyl is strenuous but necessary when one is addicted to collecting. With over 700 records, I've mastered said artform through the years; the trick is no crates, and no boxes full of nothing but records as the result is holy hell!! <br />Vinyl vs digital is like comparing homemade Lemonade to the powdered mix you buy at the supermarket. yuck.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10975899643489395437noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3442455430231444267.post-15466874070853629912009-09-20T20:25:23.078-04:002009-09-20T20:25:23.078-04:00Crates of old vinyl

Over the last 6 years of show-hopping and radio-hosting I've managed to accrue quite the collection of special release LP's. The fact that in this day and age anyone can discover any and all musicians via the internet is amazing but it does lead to a generation of listeners who have traded the warm quality of analog sound for the low-bit-rate crud that is readily available. Whenever I have the opportunity to see a band I love play live, I make sure to pick up my favorite album on LP from the merch booth. There is no other way to really appreciate the art and acoustics which these artists strive to achieve while supporting them directly!<br /><br />Now that I have moved to an area with 3 record stores in walking distance (and away from a roommate with a record player) my growing collection faces a sad level of under-appreciation: I can't play them! Help me set my lovely collection free to the airwaves again! My Portishead vinyls just aren't as lovely to look at when they aren't filling my living room with beautiful sound!<br /><br />Sitting in the less-than-blissful silence of Columbia Heights,<br />JamisonUnknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17661107919343946050noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3442455430231444267.post-57328838045358929742009-09-03T19:39:09.519-04:002009-09-03T19:39:09.519-04:00I'm in love with the modern world!

When they first moved in they looked with wonder at the old, beaten up Pioneer turntable gathering dust in the basement and my oldest asked what it was.<br /><br />It made me think back to raiding my parents' record collection as a kid and listening to "Cosmo's Factory" by Creedence and "Live at Harlem Square" by Sam Cooke, discovering that there were things outsidethe world in which I lived in inner city Baltimore and that a lot of great sounds filled the air before I was even born. These are revelations!<br /><br />I don't live in Baltimore or the inner city anymore -- but I would like to give that same experience to my sons. When I saw the posting for your contest, I went into my attic and dug out the vinyl copies of Neil Young's "Decade", Aretha Franklin's "I Never Loved a Man...." and yes, even "Thriller". I thought about the purity of sound I got from these discs and the never ending stack of 45's that my kids look at as artifacts.<br /><br />I want to share the experience of listening to music as an event with two children who have seen it heretofore as nothing more than a left click on a mouse. That, and a desire to preserve a legacy of sound sitting unheard inside my home, is why I want the Crosley. I want my kids to know that there is a lot more to the world of music than whatever generic hip-hop/dance music they hear on the radio or from their friends. This is what I would do with a brand new Crosley. Thanks for letting me speak my peace. Take care.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10965369686095948093noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3442455430231444267.post-58120930315627026802009-09-02T22:06:05.842-04:002009-09-02T22:06:05.842-04:00Winning this would be almost as good as a Rotier&#...Winning this would be almost as good as a Rotier's milkshake...<br /><br />...almost.O/Ahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10330158958848185970noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3442455430231444267.post-89018444977641746302009-09-02T05:41:47.791-04:002009-09-02T05:41:47.791-04:00i just want to hide that sharpening knives' si...i just want to hide that sharpening knives' silenceLata de Zinchttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03294923233219203228noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3442455430231444267.post-18045286672772700982009-09-01T19:46:54.785-04:002009-09-01T19:46:54.785-04:00I wanna eatah egg, I wanna eatah egg, I wanna eata...I wanna eatah egg, I wanna eatah egg, I wanna eatah egg!!!
