Anyone listening to vinyl?
#41

With Christmas just around the corner, I finally dug out an old console stereo that I stored when the kids were younger, after I caught our toddler pushing the speaker grill cloth in ... Icon_eek  !!! After getting fed up with the crappy music on the radio, I started picking up some old records at the local resale stores. Thought I'd pick up a couple dozen old Gospel albums. Nothing is that simple! Before I knew it, I had over 100 in many flavors. I brought the old stereo back out, upped it over several days, ordered a new needle, lubed and have it working. Still needs more cleaning, lube, idler and tlc. But, its playing those Christmas records Icon_biggrin
   
It is hard to beat the sound of those old console stereos from the 1960's. It is a sound I grew up with, and had mostly forgotten until I powered this baby up. Even my wife mentioned how good it sounded!

If I could find the place called "Somewhere", I could find "Anything" Icon_confused
