Vintage Records

[michaelmilitello]

My daughter, 12, has recently gotten into records, which I find really cool this day in age of streaming music and digital everything.  I told her that grandpa (my dad) has quite a record collection and she was eager to investigate when we were visiting today.  Before today, Kate had one record of her own: a copy of Queen's "a night at the opera," which she has fallen in love with since Bohemian rhapsody came out.  She has a portable Crosley player.

Anyway, grandpa was generous to add to her collection, including my mom's Beatles records, all vintage, of course.   Mom's been gone for several year's so I think it's so fun that she can relive her grandmother's youth, especially knowing The Beatles came on the scene when her grandmother was about Kate's age. 


I got walk down my own memory lane, too.  Dad has all of my record collection.   I got into collecting vinyl in high school, and I love classic rock.  I finally brought home my collection (you haven't really  moved out till all your stuff moves out).  Here's my Zeppelin collection.   I have all the studio vintage stuff except Led Zeppelin 3. 

Funny, now I have to borrow my daughters record player to "get the Led out!"   Lol.

That's pretty cool - I'm sure she was pumped to add to her collection!

I'm like vintage vinyl, I still have good tunes but I crack and pop occasionally

And when you get played backwards...

I  still have all my old albums from the'70's & 80's. Still played regularly on my 80's audio system.
