nice spot, i was only thinking of that song this morning in bed. y'see, classic example of what it is to miss vinyl. now this had a lovely sleeve 9wyatt), and you unwrapped the 7'', popped th plastic onthe deck and lost yerself in it for 3 minutes. now, we log on search and listen, and we've unfortynatle missed out on the elegance of the sleeve, and everything an artefact has to offer in enhancing our listening pleasure, like who produced it, who played bass yadda yadda yadda. Shame, still, at least we're savingt he environment with less packaging, mind you burning more fossil fuels by keeping our computer's on for longer, ho hum! | ||
