The Day the Music Died

Out walking this morning, only 19 degrees but saw this receiver turntable combo sadly sitting on the curb for pickup. Guess I am getting old...

Perfect title, what a loss to the world - I love vinyl

@graemestevens Thank you, I am glad to see vinyl beginning to make a come back!!! I recently saw Barnes and Noble bookstore had new records for sale, okay there were The Beatles, Carole King, Crosby Stills Nash and Young- but its a start.

However, turntables are not dead. They are coming back for those who love listening to music on vinyl. We have a new model at the family house in Portland and love bringing out the old records our late mother collected. Sinatra still sounds pretty good!!

@nydelignorsk I know, Barnes and Noble even started to sell new vinyl, shocked the pants off my 20 year. I am glad that the music hasn't dies but is allowing more avenues for appreciation.

Wow you will never see somebody putting out something like that here.

@sdutoit I agree, shame that it ended up there. I am amazed what people get rid of- and not try to donate or recycle.
