Anybody here prefer the touch of a beautiful album cover over the immaterial pixels on a flickering screen?
Post pics of your collection - I will as soon as I get moved in
Now that I have a job I can finally buy albums again, something I haven't really done since 2006.
My goal is to build the ultimate collection, I want a huge shelf with thousands of cds and a few hundred vinyl records.

Here's my classic setup.
And one of my more revered albums. The actual one I bought as a young-fella-me-lad back in England in 1982, I kept my most valuable vinyl where a lot of people unloaded them when CDs took over. It's worth a pretty penny these days.

Do you have anything good in there or is it just all metal

I have the same audio-technica turntable

Yep. Whenever I hear of an album I think I'll like, I'll youtube it a few times and, if I like at least half of it I'll buy the physical CD. If I only like a couple songs I'll usually just buy them at one of the online services

Hey PHM... you like Huey Lewis and the News? Their early work was a little too new wave for my taste. But when Sports came out in '83, I think they really came into their own, commercially and artistically.

He's been compared to Elvis Costello, but I think Huey has a far more bitter, cynical sense of humor.

I think their undisputed masterpiece is "Hip To Be Square". A song so catchy, most people probably don't listen to the lyrics. But they should, because it's not just about the pleasures of conformity and the importance of trends. It's also a personal statement about the band itself.
