Who has a vinyl records collection here?

[goldencoil]

Alam ko na hindi na common mangolekta ng plaka nowadays. However, I am still keeping some new wave vinyl records with me. There are times na pini play ko yun at tinititigan ko yung mga sleeves pag inaalala ko yung 80s era. May mga times na bumibili pa din ako from ebay.

Just want to know if somebody here in tsikot still collects/keeps vinyl records.

Vinyl records is still much better compared to the sound of those from the CDs. Kaya naman, may mga Discos na may gumagamit pa ng mga vinyl up to now. Iba yung "kalansing" ng trebel sound na galing sa vinyl, sompared sa CD.

Yup, we have tons of records here at home, including the 2 big albums of Spandau Ballet. Now if only may mahanap na parts for our Technics turntable.

Yeah, he is. He used to frequent the Audiophile shop in National BS sa Q. Ave. noon and brought me along nung bata pa ako (grabbing a sandwich sa Bread Connection to my delight).

I remember the first time I heard Pat Coil's "Steps" (Sheffield labs). Ang linaw!

i have this record too, though in CD. ganda pakinggan yang title na yan.

is your dad here in pinas or in the states? how old is he? malinaw pa ba pangdinig? hehe

[mbeige]

Oo naman, he's here with us visiting. Uwi kami June 10th

I too have the CD version, even the other Pat Coil albums.

I remember minsan paulit ulit niya pinapakinggan yung mga favorite albums niya. Sila Janis Ian, Claire Marlo, etc hehe. Too many to remember! I recall he has this LP cleaner too na may vacuum/suction slit where he turns the record like a turn table pero the machine sucks the dirt (with matching cleaning agent, alcohol based ba yun?)...

[goldencoil]

Wow. Ok ah. KAla ko walang fanatics sa mga plaka. Isang gusto ko while playing vinyl records eh yung pag umiikot yung plaka especially pag picture disc sya. Isa pang maganda dun eh pag nagre reminisce ka nung mga childhood moments mo na parang ang simple simple pa lang ng buhay. Hehe

[zero]

mga LPs noong 60s, 70s and 80s ang nakatago sa bodega namin.
Jack Jones, The Lettermen, Stylistics, Helen Reddy, Carpenters, Eagles, Tito, Vic & Joey, VST & Co., etc..

[XTO]

i still have them. over a thousand 12" mixes and lps. i didn't sell them after
our mobile got disbanded. iba talaga ang tunog nito at buong buo though depende
sa stylus na gamit. shure is one of the best syempre. at kayang
timplahin thru pitch control ng tt. i left one technics turntable with me.

yung ibang new wave namin then ng barkada mga picture disk pa from uk.
like the care, madonna, real life, gene loves jezebel etc. at remember the
tears for fears version of everybody wants to run the world. not rule?
well, those were the days.

Mayron pa din ako ilan, pinapatugtog ko paminsan-minsan. I had an Elvis Presley hard vinyl some years back. Binenta ko sa collector - nice and tidy sale. Pinanbile ko ng ng cellphone. Rare hard vinyl records still fectches princely sums from collectors. If you got Elvis Presley's first 33 LP (hard vinyl - yung pag binagsak eh basag), it can go on the collector market as much as 30K petot. Soft vinyl records (yung nababaluktot) fetch lower prices compared to hard vinyl.

Kapatid, I can relate he he he. Medyo umistambay-istambay din ako sa mga fwends ko dati na nagmo-mobile. Medyo natuto naman ako.

IMO skill ang mag mix ng party tunes using vinyl LPs kase dapat kabisado mo yung BPM nung kanta, san maganda intro/mix, saan maganda outro, etc. With technology now-a-days, software at computers na gumagwa. I remember dati, nilalagyan ng fwend kong may-ari nung mobile ng sort of wax paper in between the record and dun sa turntable para less friction pag nag-scratch sya.

[kimpOy]

iba pa rin ang soundstage sound ng analog...

yep, ang sarap kahit sa una pagpa-pawisan ka pero once makabuo ka ng
say 30 mins pwede na magpasikat sa mga tsikas. hehehe

agree nico, dun nagkakatalo sa pasok at babad na tinatawag teka baka ma-
close to. sa mixing ang ibig ko sabihin nung dumating ang cds pumasok
na mga software kaya seating pretty na lang ang mga djs unless may competition.

we put several pieces of thin plastic sheets then felt paper on top of the
rubber for smoother and friction-less releases.

[niwde11]

yup still have. collection of my elder brother and sisters(including in laws). but not as old as the collection of nico. afair, we have Queen Double LP (Live Killers), Beatles, Elton John, Pink Floyd(Dark Side of the Moon), Jackson Browne (Running on Empty and Lawyers In Love), CSNY (Dejavu and Four way street), etc. mostly classical rock.

[Asus700]

in th u.s. they still produce LP of modern singers like diana krall and norah jones and the likes, mahal lang. dito lang yata wala.
