    Spent £180 on records today. Some real bargains amongst them.

    Was absolutely brilliant.

    Lifted me. At the moment I'm finding things depressing at BFC. I hope it can be sorted, we have a great young squad, but we just seem rudderless.

    No one ever said it would be easy.

    Love to know what you picked up, mate. Been a while since I dropped that much on vinyl!

    Original copy of Tom Waits Rain Dogs, a really rare Art Blakey LP, loads of obscure **** & a few cheap LPs too, Tim Hardin, Pentangle & Ginger Baker being the latter.

    Help me out here. Is an LP an album on vinyl? And your other buys were singles or one offs?

    I like obscure schitt. More details, please!

    True, playing them at 45 or 78 was always good for a chuckle. Or very slowly backwards if you were looking for satanic messages.

    True, but not what I meant! Lots of albums mastered at half speed and pressed to be played at 45rpm these days. Most of the audiophile labels put stuff out at 45rpm. Better quality sound.

    It's vinyl, Jim, but not as we know it.

    Billy Bragg albums tend to be 45rpm (I think because they're shorter in duration than your average?), other than that I don't know of modern albums at 45rpm. I realise Billy Bragg can no longer be classed as modern :D

    LP = 'Long Play' (a full album)
    EP = 'Extended Play' (usually an extended single, 4-6 songs)

    Lots of audiophile stuff - jazz etc. Impex, Analogue Productions, Music Matters etc all do it. The MoFi 45rpm releases of Dire Straits albums are astonishing. Black Keys El Camino is one on my shelf...

    Never knew! I have plenty of singles at 33 1/3. Blue Monday probably the most infamous. And also (I think) the biggest selling 12 inch single ever?
