Comments on: Tea with Hungry Lucy #113 (Shiny Hammers) http://blog.hungrylucy.com/2008/04/27/tea-with-hungry-lucy-113-shiny-hammers/ read, hear and see what Hungry Lucy is up to Thu, 24 Jul 2008 15:24:47 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.5.1 By: Grant http://blog.hungrylucy.com/2008/04/27/tea-with-hungry-lucy-113-shiny-hammers/#comment-120899 Grant Tue, 06 May 2008 21:35:48 +0000 http://blog.hungrylucy.com/?p=575#comment-120899 On the vinyl subject - I no longer buy any, but I have a large collection that I would never throw away. There's something magical about a gatefold sleeve and a big shiny black LP with an ornate centre-label. And let's not forget picture disks (I have a fair few Marillion ones). The only snag is that my old Technics turntable is knackered, and I can't justify the cost of getting another one for the occasional spin of an LP.

I'm a week behind and was listening on the bus on Monday; I had to crank up the volume and just bathe in the beauty and simplicity of it. It was quite moving. Any chance of making it available to podcasters to play ? Can I just say that the version of Shine was beautiful.

No vinyl for me. When I started buying music in the early '80s the cassette was all the rage. CDs were just starting to show up in stores my senior year of High school (1984). Your analysis of music purchasing sounds about right. I'm 41 and I still want CDs, but I've been buying lots from Amie Street. Those I burn to audio CD (and data DVD) for backup. Even though I buy most on CD it really just gets ripped to AAC then put on a CD rack. 1st thank you for the live performance!
