I confess I went the way of iPod a long time ago. Most of my favourites on CD were converted and everything I buy now is online.
I was never a really serious audiophile to begin with so my trusty iPod works beautifully for me … although I am on my third one now – built-in obsolesence and all …
Yes; I am still on my first ipod classic which I have had for 5 years or so now. But I just have to hold on to everything. Just checked, I’ve got 14404 songs on it which would play for 39.5 days – madness hey? Of course they’ve stopped making the classic so everything will have to go onto something else then. I resisted mp3s at first, pretending to be a purist, but gave in and love them. My friends and I, and the library, are my source of all my music. I’d be spending a bit too much otherwise and our rural satellite internet is shite. π
Very nice angles of the record. The middle photos was my favorite because it reminds me of my teen years. I would try to get the needle exactly on the spot for my favorite song over and over. Nice memories. My granddaughter has a record player and LP collection. It is nice that they have returned. Very nice selection for this week’s challenge and love your angle selections. Nice photos!!
Blast from the past. A great choice for the prompt. Like the middle photo.

Believe or not, I cleaned it before taking these photos. I upped the contrast to accentuate the tracks; out comes all the unmovable dust.

I too love the middle photo. It’s been a very long time since I’ve handled an LP.
