I hang onto them because I can't sell them! With CD's
I
am a liquidating fool. If I need some quick cash
(which
seems to be the case more and more these days) I can
clone a CD then sell it. 95% of the time I just sell
it. If I have something on vinyl I rarely listen to
I'm
least likely to sell it because I know I won't make
any money from it. So I hang onto it and I have it
when
I need it.
I like LP's. There's just something about pulling one
out and throwing it down, pulling the tone arm over...
In fact, I listened to a couple of records yesterday
whilst trying to entertain my four-month-old son.
Unrest's "B.P.M." rarities collection, Prince & The
Revolution's "Around The World In A Day" and The
Bangles' "All OVer The Place." I could safely say I
probably wouldn't still have these on CD.
