Today is the first day in over 25 years I'm playing my vinyl. Ordered a new turntable and spent the day yesterday calibrating and balancing everything.
Upon hearing the first note, I had a tear in my eye like you might get in a movie with a heart tug ending.
First album I cued up is To the Heart Mark-Almond.
Now comes the long , but enjoyable process of cleaning all my records. I have about 350, most of them purchased back in the 60s and 70s, mostly a mix of jazz and classic rock.
So now I have a question for the group. I've heard various philosophies on how to store the records. I bought some MoFi inner sleeves and Sleeve City Ultimate outer sleeves.
Looks like some store the record in an inner sleeve but put that on the outside of the jacket which is protected by the outer sleeve. I've started doing it this way as an experiment and keeping the paper sleeve only if it has art and writing as it is original to the album. I will keep that inside of the jacket.
Curious how other people store their records.
OK, allow me to get back to playing more music!
