GG>Nope. It's nationwide. Vinyl is making a comeback. A small
GG>comeback, but a comeback none the less. I don't know where it
GG>started, but I'm starting to see turntables in catalogs again, and
GG>more and more releases. Gee, maybe the days of great album
GG>cover art can return too. You just can't get great cover
GG>art (like in the 60s/70s) on a 4.7" x 4.7" space. It's a
GG>lost treasure.
You can even buy a turntable at Radio Shack! I agree on the cover art.
At my age, even with my glasses, I need a magnifying glass to see the
"whole" picture, not to mention reading the liner notes.
GG>You can't tell me you never sat there staring at an album
GG>cover while listening to the album. I can remember
GG>tripping while staring at King Crimson's "Court Of The
GG>Crimson King" album. <laugh>
How about Carly Simon album covers. Of course, I'm a dirty old man.
