So, while I have been moving all my crap out of my old house, I come across my box full of all my records.  Havent seen this box in over 27 years!  Probably longer, well since like 1980!  I remember albums and how the covers were all the big deal.  Cool covers that you cannot even get close to with DVDs in plastic cases.  So one day at a garage sale, I bought all this guys albums, 45's and a turntable.  I went home so anxious to plug it into my surround sound system and kick back and listen to some old classic rock.  No go.  My receiver is digital and the turntable was analog. Bummer.  So anyways, I open up my original Peter Frampton double album cover and there are little seeds still in the crack.. Anyone remember why there would be little seeds in this crack of this particular double album cover?  I was laughing my butt off.  Then had to quickly clean it cuz daughter wanted to see all my albums.  She went thru them all asking all these questions like, are these originals? Ummm, yes, I am that old daughter. She is like, Cool, this one is so cool, so is this one.  So being now that she lives in an apartment and has boring white apartment walls in her bedroom that we cant paint, I suggested that she go thru the album covers and pick out the cool ones and we can go around to top of her walls like a border and sticky putty them up.  I will post a pic when we are all done. Oh btw, anyone ever heard of "Matt The Hoople".  I have three albums and dont know who these people are but look like early 70's.  Also, does anyone have a stereo rack system with speakers and a turntable that they dont want anymore?  I want to put it in her room for her to play these on.  Will bring back alot of memories and I know that I can prob download them jsut the same, but it isnt the same at all.  The scratches, the sound, remember when you put a penny on the needle so it would play better?  wow, how much fun did we have?  I also saw all my albums with my name writeen on the cover, cuz whenever we went to Mark Stevens house to party on the weekends, everyone would bring their favs to share. So if you live near the northland, or even if you dont, and you want to get rid of a system or sell for very very cheap (cuz I am a poor white single mom to a 16- year old, I want everything and I want you to buy it now, daughter).
