Just bought the new Elbow (double) album -it's a 45. My Linn doesn't play 45's. - World-Designs-Forum

This is very rude of me, but count your blessings. The new Elbow has to be the most boring album in my entire collection. I haven't managed to play it all the way through yet, and I loved the previous ones.

Your Linn will play 45s (I think) if you buy one of these.

HaHa! (I would've written 'lol' but I'm not sure it's acceptable protocol on this forum!), every cloud eh?
Thanks for the tip(s) anyway Guy. Perhaps it's time I moved on into the 20th century with a 45 adaptor!
Maybe I should move into the 19th century and try a 78 adpator if the LP's as dull as you say.

I love the new one but they are probably my favourite band. I like all of their albums and have them all on vinyl. The new one reminds me a little of their first one, "asleep in the back".
The new one plays fine on my Lenco, cutting edge technology has its advantages.

Yes, saw them again at Glastonbury this year. One of the highlights of the weekend IMHO.

Just in case any Linn users are Foo Fighters fans, Their latest album "wasting light" is a double/45rpm as well. Maybe it is the "latest thing" to do it that way.
