"The two things that really drew me to vinyl were the expense and the inconvenience".

...And because it continues to voyage where no man has gone before.

The translation of an inscribed, modulated spiral groove into sound and music is something really special. When I think of analog storage, it is really a multilayered digital approach to me. Perhaps something akin to quantum ternary computing with dimmer switches....Today's fixation on digital is a dichotomy whereby we have founded our reliance on a base-2 numbering system simply as a notation of convenience and have built computers to interpret that data in a discrete manner. In some respects, this advance is a fundamental step backwards and perhaps we as a society need to revisit the art of information re-processing.

They may be Bald but they are way too young to be audiophiles and too skinny no way skinny guys get good bass.

From what I've been told, seeds are the stuff (pun intended) of nostalgia for THAT too. Seeds? What seeds?
