I still cannot understand for any reason why people now pay the prices that are being asked for vinyl records; to me, its just pure exploitation by businesses due to the fact that vinyl has become popular again. Maybe i'm living in a dream world but, a few years ago, everyone was chucking them in the bin as worthless, old fashioned junk; now people are paying crazy money for "half speed remasters," "180gram sp edtns" and the like - crazy or what ? It's just a vinyl record, it doesn't mean one should be paying a kings ransom for it!!!!!
Anyway, that's my thoughts on it. I'll buy CD's, remastered CD's etc for a few quidand I know they'll sound good for years

The sanity of record buying, like hifi and just about every hobby/pastime, doesn't bear close scrutiny, it's all a bit mental really. Though for most of us with limited funds there will come a point where we go "right enough's enough, they're taking the piss now"... I've reached that point, and fortunately I have enough vinyl now to see me out
I will still buy the occasional LP if I consider it to be a (relative) bargain.

Hothouse Flowers - Into Your Heart
Bought this today from a charity shop. Very listenable without being too challenging.
At these prices it is nice to try things that I've never heard of before.

1984 was a warning - Not an instruction manual
I like (things) in brackets
Track 1 Bass is really quite something..
Having said that, the whole album is pretty amazing.
"Never Good Enough" drum work is worth a test listen.
