Got Vinyl?

Yeah, I'm talking about Record Store Day!
I'm a bit late 'cause Record Store Day was yesterday (April 19)...yet time is timeless and some things should be seen, if you're into that sorta thing anyway.
Here's a cool little documentary (it's about 27mins) about the joy of music, records and those that dig sounds and bands...with a focus on the very old, yet very hip n' cool source of music that came from the actual stamped vinyl disks called albums. *gasp* Yes some antique thing that uses physical means and moving parts to recreate sound. :O
If you're in the US you should be able to view this documentary...but I don't know about the UK or other countries. You'll have to give it a try.

Now I'm a bit remiss in finding out about Record Store Day...but then I put on vinyl nearly every weekend (because I love music of all kinds) and "burn up" my turn-table and very ancient Cerwin-Vega speakers with much rock and other oddities.
I remember my very first record purchase (and I still have the record ) it's still in pretty good shape. There's a very good chance my "vinyl" is much, much older than you. :D
If you dig music you might like this little documentary. Check it!
