As for LPs and 78s: I have about 250 LPs - mostly classical and musicals which I am able to play (but seldom do) on the turntable unit within my stacked music centre. There must be about 100 78s up in my roof space which I cannot play but would LOVE to! They are virtually all Scottish Country Dance band music - Jimmy Shand, Ian Powrie, McBain's, etc., etc. - but I have some recordings dating back to the 1930s that belonged to my father. It would be wicked, if not sinfull, to destroy them!
yes, it would be wicked to destroy such a collection.
I'm waiting to see one of these kids try to play one of these "big CD's" in any modern CD player!!!
