[Flick Lives]

I gave my 32 year old son in law some old LPs I've had from the 1970s. He called me the other day and said "I just listened to both sides of Jethro Tull's Aqualung! That's great music."

I do miss the great album art on the old LPs

"I do miss the great album art on the old LPs"

I do think that is one of the appeals of vinyl records, the issue of sound quality aside. Handling the album and playing the record on the turn table is a tactile experience and the album covers and liner notes add to the experience-- more so than on a tiny CD, let alone a bodiless digital version.

I guess you can compare it to the preference that many people have for physical books over e-books. It is part of the experience.
