Who has a vinyl records collection here?

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

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?)...
