All About Vinyl Records and Other Really Cool Stuff.
For as long as I can remember, music has been my passion.
This site, all about vinyl records, reflects that passion for collecting vinyl records and albums. I grew up in the fifties and sixties when Doo-Wop was at its peak.
Fifty years later I still enjoy listening to Doo-Wop, Classic Rock, Country, Rockabilly and many other styles of music.
So...If you're a vinyl cover lover come on in, grab your favorite beverage, and pull up a chair...This could take a while.
I'll share with you the album content, the artists, their music, song lyrics, and why I believe vinyl albums are such a great piece of history to own.
Here is where you can step back in time and relive old memories and where you were when these classic records were playing.
Remember the sock hops, school dances, American Bandstand, Friday night cruisin' and Drive-in movies. All these old memories will come to life as you read about and play the cool music on these pages.
I'll cover my three favorite decades, the 50's, 60's and 70's when the golden age of vinyl records was at its peak. So close your eyes and come with me on a trip down memory lane.
To a place where cool 45's and LP albums were a part of life no one in today's digital world could fully understand.
A time when both classic rock albums and classic country albums were something you could hold in both hands, enjoy the picture art work, and read all the information about your favorite artist.
Hard to do on a 5 inch by 5 inch CD.
Some double albums have photo's you can frame, and many have several pages of written information about the artist or band. Look for my cool page on the Little Deuce Coupe album. The vinyl cover lovers and Hot Rod fans will certainly enjoy this page.
"They Tore the House Down!"
And don't overlook the Johnny Cash "Orange Blossom Special" album that tells a classic story. How Johnny and his special new friend "Tore the house down" in what Johnny said was his most memorable live performance ever on that particular song. A unique original and memorable story told by Johnny Cash.
