Hello,
So I’ve been getting back to vinyl after a brief dalliance with digital media. I’m ashamed to admit that the convenience of computer stored music tempted me with its ease of use and soulless sounds. But slowly I began to realise something was wrong. I was listening to music but it was like subsisting soley on a diet of fast food. It looks like food and has some of the taste but without the nutritional goodness that your body craves. It’s like that with digital music for me. There is a quality that is missing from the experience.
Anyway I’ve been trying to replenish my vinyl supplies after a break away from it and some ill-thought out sales of some classic records. I found a good website that has a lot of old vinyl for sale but I need some inspiration for what to buy. I’m going to be re-buying load of stuff that I previously owned but I’m also looking to buy some new records to broaden my musical horizons. Obviously I only want to buy records that really shine on vinyl and that are well-recorded so I get the most from them. I need some inspiration though. What are your absolute must-have records on vinyl? Albums that you would rather not listen to at all than listen to digitally. Records that sing through a stylus?
Thanks.
