Mudsimus Posted February 25, 2019 Share Google play (or any other equivalent) R59 per month.every album you ever wanted. This thread is actually not becoming obsolete. I signed up with this about 3 months ago.Could download any album and then play in the car through BT.so i got a whole bunch of albums that I own the CDs of but just can't play becausea)they're scratched - that 80's fallacy of CD's lasting forever......b)they're lent out to long forgotten friendsc)lost/stolen So ja, get going online, you won't regret it.because if you really want to read the album notes you could find them online tooI stream about 20hours a week from Spotify. Threw all my CDs away about 3 years ago. I do have a pretty decent vinyl collection. Some albums you just need on physical format. gemmerbal 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Readsalot Posted February 25, 2019 Share Might have missed it but no "Dark Side of the Moon" - Pink Floyd? Personally, I overplayed Pink Floyd so I've moved those albums to my Not Now list as well. Instead, I have the David Gilmour - Live at Pompeii concert and the two Roger Waters albums on my Must Have list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MovieAmandla - A Revolution in Four-Part Harmony Soundtrack And… Johnny Clegg - The Best of Juluka/Suvuka Jain - Zanaka Paul Simon - The Ultimate Collection ... plus a couple of Dizzy, Surge and Trance House albums from my clubbing days of yore at ESP in Joburg. Plus I still have to check out Tananas and Ladysmith Black Mambazo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thor Buttox Posted February 25, 2019 Share My selection of the ones that blew my mind in a moment of time that they always take me back to are:Radio head - The Bends (better than Android) U2 - The Joshua TreeOpeth - Still Life (and Deliverance, but Still Life is better) Anathema - JudgmentHypocrisy - Abducted (and Hypocrisy) Judas Priest - PainkillerMaiden - 7th son of a seventh sonKatatonia - Last fair deal gone down Death - LeprosyOverkill - Years of DecayPlacebo - Without you, I'm nothingAntimatter - Planetary Confinement (and Leaving Eden) The last one is a really odd choice for those that know the kind of music they made and the incredible songs from the 70's but I really love Sabbath's Headless Cross.

You just don't get that with a streaming service https://thevinylfactory.com/features/secret-history-messages-etched-runout-groove/ I collect vinyl since listening to music on vinyl for me is about the whole experience. It puts your whole mind in a different vibe, which listening to CD or streaming can never do. I am a subscriber to Tidal, of course.

Instead, I have the David Gilmour - Live at Pompeii concert and the two Roger Waters albums on my Must Have list.Definitely a must have album. This recording is just insane.
