Bring back the RECORDS!

I am at a point where I am just ready to say, bring back the record. Not because of music quality, I am Ok with CD quality. I can live with CD quality and do enjoy the convenience of CD's. But I miss the booklet...I miss the large color pictures, the ones I can actually see without a magnifying glass...I miss hanging my album cover on some wall...I miss zinging them across my room...I miss opening it up and wondering what cool thing will be in it...I miss my love gun...I miss putting my name on the outer edge in black marker and on the inside of the record (OK, my mom did that)...I miss putting a mustache on the the lead singer's face...I miss flipping through them at a record store and then not buying one...do I need to go on? Well to put it into perspective, I saw an old record store for sale and I was going to buy it for everything that was inside and I went and told my uncle all excited that..."hey, I decided to buy a record store"; and his reply was "wow, I hear it's a real booming business."

So maybe my next blog will about downloadable music.
