Digging out the old vinyl

[Gwylan]

I don't think you understand how MP3s can be played "wherever you do" - that is, at home, on the move, and at work. Anyway...

Oh I do, I do. I sit in the same office as Macworld listening to them going on about iPods all day and every day. Anyone would think that Apple had discovered a cure for cancer or something.

 

[Barnet Seagull]

Vinyl's good - I trot out my vinyl every now and again on my SL1200.

You only have one?

 

[Deano's Right Foot]

Yes. I sold the other one - far too old to DJ now. I have trouble staying up after 11 o'clock what with kids waking up at anytime from six!

I used to like the idea of listening to music everywhere I went - especially on the train to London and back everyday.....but then I realized I missed listening to the real world everyday..... and now we look forward to going home after work, glass of wine in hand - sift through the records, lay some vinyl on the turntable, crank up the amp and listen....

 

[DJ Leon]

I've been trying to find out how I can get my vinyl onto my ipod. Anyone got any ideas?

 

[Gordon the Gopher]

I was 13/14 when punk first came out and from the proceeds of my paper round acquired nearly every Jam, Clash and Buzzcocks single released. Seeing the Jam live on their modern world tour is one of those little treasures (along with the clash at the Lyceum) that I will take to my grave. Have also been offered a sizeable sum for my collection but would never part.

While talking about punk I heard the guy from the Office was on Soccer AM the other day and saw Lovejoy wearing a Ramones tee shirt and took the piss when finding out he had never even heard one of their records. Anyone see this?

 

[The Large One]

Ever experienced Dusty Springfield 45s on a Dansette then?

No? 1-0 to the fat bloke, then.

Just off to do that now.

yes it was great.

Martin Freeman: Is that a ramones t-shirt?
Lovejoy: Yes
Martin Freeman: Can you name one of their songs?
Lovejoy: >Silence<
Martin Freemand: Can you even name one of their albums?
Lovejoy: No
Martin Freeman: Thought so.

Marvellous Scenes.

Yep


The last music centre we bought, we made sure it had a turntable with it. I have my collection of 60's vinyl that I love to listen to.

Probably worth a fair bit now 60s vinyl as well.

 

[Brighton Breezy]

Ive got a stack of vinyl, some signed ltd edition. Would never sell it because its bloody great.

Dusty Springfield...amazing singer who sounds perfect on a record player.

I was actually saying just this afternoon how I was thinking about buying a new record player to do my vinyl justice.

Probably worth a fair bit now 60s vinyl as well.

My kids can sell it when I'm gone then

My son loves most of my 60's stuff. He has put some of it onto CD for me.

 

[Brighton Breezy]

Yorkie, what sort of stuff have you got?

Open to offers for any of it?

 

[Yorkie]

Beatles, Stones, Gene Pitney, Simon & Garfunkel & Fleetwood Mac (albums)

Loads of different singles




NO

Your kids will be very grateful one day

I thought they had to be in mint condition to be worth anything.

I have the original 'Love me do' with a red Parlophone label (they changed to black the next year) from Nov 62 but I wrote my initials on the label because I took it to Portslade youth club and I didn't want it nicked

Doesn't matter as there are hardly any around, seriously think about having it all valued for house contents insurance purpose.

 

[Brighton Breezy]

Often vinyl with qwicky stories attatched to them like your youth club one go for more.

I know someone who has 'the who live at the isle of wite' which was damaged in a fire that detroyed a record shop so he got it in the sale. Worth more because of the story and background. It has to be playable still but sometimes things like singed sleeves and innitials make them more desirable.

Ive got all the beatles albums, currently looking for ones by:

- geno washington
- al green
- stevie wonder
- dusty springfield
- pp arnold.
