AAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I GOT THAT AS A GIFT WAY BACK WHEN – I STILL HAVE IT!!!
that album cover STILL has a Squee Factor for me. Oh the nostalgia!!
Played it OVER and OVER and OVER!!…
Sharon – !!!!
You still have it??? I just so loved his nostalgia about it – and not just remembering that he loved it – but remembering who he was at that moment that he loved it. sniff!!!
I love that you remember. :)
Oh and Sharon – do you still have a record player?? Are you able to listen to it still?
I should get a durn turntable – I have so many albums stashed away I’d love to listen to – and there’s just something about vinyl.
Red, my wife got me one of those Crosley all-in-one sets for my birthday. Google Crosley Radio and you should be able to find the site. The downside is no tone controls on the model she got me (the one in the Queen Anne cabinet), but it sounds good enough–not audiophile country, but good enough. They make tabletop and freestanding models.
