We old geezers have all the tunes on the original media: vinyl platters of various speeds, 8 Track, and Cassettes and even some reel-to-reel. And unlike the throwaway players of today, the ones to play these still work fine.

Ahhhh the mellow sounds from my tube-type system still warms my old heart and amazes those who hear it for the first time.

Even the buzz and hiss of physical contact with the media is comforting in its own way.

Looks very good in terms of artist roster.

Shame there seems to be no FLAC option and it also seems to require ActiveX. I guess that the latter would account for a browser full of unstyled XML when I try and listen to anything.


I think I'll still be listening to the Tubes' White Punks On Dope from the original vinyl for a while yet.

I use eBay for CD's of old bands. Got the likes of Blossom Toes, Edgar Broughton Band and The Pink Fairies for £5 + £1.50 P & P.
