God - I thought I had a lot at 2500!
LP is an album. vinyl can be LP, EP or singles.In my day, admittedly a long time ago, we just called them LP's
That’s rather decent!
Quite....it's why we said LP's, EP's or 45's in those days. Mind you I also had some 'vinyl 78's. Hound Dog/Teddy Bear by Elvis. Grand Coulee Dam/Sal's Got a Sugar Lip by Lonnie Donegan were two of mine that I remember.LP is an album. vinyl can be LP, EP or singles.
In my workplace, I get annoyed that people talk about ‘trainings’ when they mean training courses.Vinyls should be placed with medaled (as in to win a medal) in room 101

I called them records. We had records, tapes & CD's. CD's had just been 'invented'. They hadn't just been invented but it was a big moment when the 'Now 378' album came out on CD in the very late 80's/early 90''s & I had a CD player! My brother said CD's were indestructible so I kept throwing his Fleetwood Mac CD against the wall to prove it to my friends. When they1st came out they were indestructible, I even trod on one & took a chunk out of it. That's how I know that CD's play from inside out rather than outside in, like vinyl. They don't make them like they used to, a tiny scratch on a CD now will make it unplayable.People referred to 'vinyls' in the 90s?!
I think they were probably shellac as opposed to vinyl... or possibly even shellacsQuite....it's why we said LP's, EP's or 45's in those days. Mind you I also had some 'vinyl 78's.

The 10” was called the LP, many people refer to albums as LP’s which may be incorrect.When I started buying 'records' in the mid 70's we simply referred to them as singles and albums ... and then occasionally boast about having a 12" single. I think I've still got a 10" single up in the loft.
First single I bought was in 1975 ... Minnie Riperton ... "Lovin' You".
First album - released in 1974, but probably bought in 1975 was Slade's "Old New Borrowed and Blue"
Still have them.
And don't get me started on 'headquartered'In my workplace, I get annoyed that people talk about ‘trainings’ when they mean training courses.
