I love living in the future – I love that I can get music instantly delivered to my ears without leaving my seat… but I also have a fondness for vinyl not for any reasons of quality or snobbishness but more because somehow putting a needle into a groove of plastic and getting music out of it is somehow more amazing to me than getting music out of a computer.
I love that people post videos of them playing their records to YouTube and I never get tired of watching them – here are a few favourites, most of which I found in a 30 minute trawl of YouTube – there is so much vinyl joy out there!
The Champs – Tequila
The Monkees – Porpoise Song
The Shangri-Las – Give Him a Great Big Kiss
The Special A.K.A. – Gangsters
Luna – Dear Paulina (of course!)
