If you're talking about the qualitative differences between cd and vinyl, I'm totally with you - I miss everything about vinyl except the maintenance - trying to get that last freaking speck of dust to get rid off the pop it was causing  in the middle of a song used to make me nuts.  But I miss the warmth of sound, the packaging/artwork... Examining the album sleeve as the record played was part of the experience - CD "liner notes" have never cut it...

and hopefully the private mail I sent you revealed that you in fact caught me off guard, and that was an off-the-cuff, scot-like reply, when in fact I look at cd's like microwaved potatoes and cell-phones- mostly cute trading card type things that I will certainly play but I like serving up a good heaping "hawkwind meal", so just give me a rega-3 replacement and I'll play every piece of vinyl I ever get over and over again (I'll be needing
japanese inners too, however)......but if I never make it the face was as good as the snatch

 more stuff about the band itself.  Like that synth they put up for sale
 recently that I think was Alan's?  I can't even play and yet that thing made
 me go into a shark-like Kollektor blood frenzy because of the
 association  between that and their live shows.

 on Zarozinia in Live Chronicles," I probably would have been trying to sign
 over my house to them, even as my wife had me dragged off and committed to a
 mental  institution.  :)

 nothing there for music-only people
