How do we buy music these days?....

[MontyVeda]

Lots.

I've placed a pre-order.

I'm very tempted. But at £52 inc P&P it'll be the most expensive LP i've bought to date.
However the beauty of pre-order is one forgets about the money by the time it's arrived

 

[MontyVeda]

I don't get this. What do you mean by no patience for vinyl?

I may be missing something here.

taking the sleeve out of the sleeve and then taking the record out of the other sleeve... it's a right hassle!

 

[MontyVeda]

Didn't know you could get videos on vinyl, does that predate betamax?

possibly... I've got this movie on vinyl.

it's the whole film, dialogue, footsteps, karate chops and everything on 2 records, you just have to imagine the visuals.

Why they released such an oddity, I'll never know.

I spent 153 quid on a mint copy of King Crimson's in the Court of the Crimson King album once. Not a mark on the cover, original inner sleeve or record.

I bought a copy of Cliff Richards 'Bachelor Boy' for 6/8d ..... still got it somewhere.

not bad, the only 'mint' copy on discogs is over a grand.

hmm, how can it be original if it's expanded and remastered?

 

[Oldhippy]

@Venod I have the CD too. I only listen to blues and prog Internet radio in my office and have never done the Spotify thing.

Vinyl sounds better so spend £150 on an LP but never listen to it and spend £10 a month to stream the inferior digital version instead.

None of that makes sense.

Find a little time and treat yourself to some tracks from your youth. Music is a wonderful thing , even some of the crap I listen too.

I also thought that.

You don't have to subscribe to listen to Spotify, if you don't mind ads, and Vinyl doesn't sound better to me, I think it's over rated.
Oldhippy has stated he listens to it on CD so probably doesn't play the LP.
