You guys are giving me the urge to pull out my turntable - if I can find it, it's somewhere in the attic, well stored in its original box - and try some vinyl.

My turntable was a Technics, can't remember the model (will have to find it) but it was one of the really good ones. I took great care with my records, used white lintless gloves to handle, no one touched them except moi, etc ...

You see, I haven't played a vinyl record since that amazing "Breakfast in America" CD that converted me. Of course, back then I had younger ears and most likely, less refned tastes.

OK, you guys have convinced me ... vinyl is now on my "list of things to do". Hopefully, my turntable still works after 20 years or so in storage.

GREAT thread ... thanks !
