Blast From the Past

The Daily Double. This is for two challenges, NF-SOOC of course and also for Disappearing With the Darkroom. That last challenge was to find something you used to use all the time but no longer need. I haven't played LP's in years but somehow can't quite bring myself to dispose of my turntable or the hundreds or records in my collection. I keep them hidden away in the garage. Please don't tell my wife, she thinks I've gotten rid of them.

PS: The record on the turntable is Pet Sounds by The Beach Boys. A true classic

Good one!

[Esther Rosenberg]

Clever!!

[Walks @ 7]

A blast from the past for sure. We still have one but it can also record our LP's digitally. Not that we've done too.many😉

[Mags]

Oh dear. I still have mine too. Including all my Zeppelin albums. Nice shot!

[Lin]

Awesome - a must fav for the cool capture and the memory!

[Milanie]

Love it - still have my 33's and a turntable - love this memory

[Shutterbug]

Nice shot of your not quite disappearing subjects. Good choice. Thanks for participating with the darkroom

[KWind]

Nice B&W!

[Larry L]

Pet Sounds!! YAY
I still play my vinyl occasionally, gotta love it.

[Kathy]

Oh I wish I had my turntable. I still have the vinyl.

[LManning (Laura)]

Perfect subject! I love the tones in this.

[Ethel]

My adult grandchildren are besotted with vinyl. You have a fortune sitting in your garage. BTW I like your photo.

[Islandgirl]

Looks great in b&w, my hubby still has a reel to reel with music hidden away somewhere! Lol

[Diana]

What a wonderful blast from the past, beautifully captured.

[Richard Sayer]

Collectors' items these days- very appropriate to render this in B&W

[KoalaGardens🐨]

now that is so funny - see the image I uploaded as the darkroom for today

[Mike]

Seems so ‘old hat’ these days, but there used to be such an effort put into playing records…I really miss that! Fav

[Yoland]

Great shot of your hidden jem. We have one stored somewhere too and boxes of all my dad’s old records.
I just noticed that tomorrow is day 365 for you!!! Congrats.

[Judith Johnson]

Great shot, and yes we still have ours. I started playing one record every Friday while I was doing the housework. It was good to hear all the old favourites

[Chris Cook]

@koalagardens 😂 Great minds think alike. I could have posted a picture of my CD player because I don’t use that anymore either but the turntable was more photogenic. Besides, I have fonder memories of vinyl.

[Chris Cook]

Thanks @yoland I’m not quite there yet. I joined last October but I have two folders and combined they total the 364 you noticed.

[GaryW]

Love this!

[bkb in the city]

Well done

You know, vinyl is making a comeback, though not for a mass market. The superior sound quality is being noticed by younger music lovers and there are artists who are releasing new material in vinyl. So don’t get rid of the turntable yet.
