Wa[x]

Picture a time where Mediafire and Mp3s didnt exist.... Yeah I can't either. But, there was once a time believe it or not when all people could solely rely on was radio and the good ol' record player.  If you know me, then you know my love for vinyl. Lately, they have been my only investment. Not only for the joy they bring to my ears, but for the lovely artwork that comes along with these albums. It's pretty sick to notice the amount of work into these LP covers. What's a little cd or iTunes Artwork compared to a big ol' vintage record? NADA!

Faithful to my love for the old, I've been attracted to music from the early eras. In respect towards these tracks, I want that full 70's, 80's or 90's experience! Therefore, I gotta own em on record. The mp3 effect just doesn't cut it. Snap Crackle and pop as the needle flows!

Some of my favorite album covers below...Can you recognize a few?
