From the New York Times:
When she’s not on the road, a typical Friday night for Lynne means having some friends over for a bottle of wine and playing records, just as the family used to do in Alabama. “I don’t have an iPod,” she said. “I have a computer that I turn on occasionally. I still have all my vinyl. Sissy” — her nickname for Moorer, who lives in New York with her husband, the alt-country singer Steve Earle — “says she has no room in her apartment for records, but I’d keep mine even if I had to sleep on them. You can’t roll a joint on an iPod.”
Well, no you can't, but I do still have some dark colored CD jewel cases from the late `80's with some suspicious razor blade marks on them.
ReplyDeleteI thought that was a pretty good article.
ReplyDeleteI have just the most important albums still on vinyl. Got tired of moving them.
ReplyDeleteI didn't know Alison and Steve were married ...
I loved this article.
ReplyDeleteI didn't know that Steve and Alison were married either. Or that Steve lived in New York.
Michael, you'd love David Lynch's attitude about the iPod here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wKiIroiCvZ0
ReplyDeleteChristian: Thanks for that. That's hilarious and I totally agree with him.
ReplyDeleteThis is a riot. The David Lynch video is perfection. (thx brittney, christian)
ReplyDeleteHello all,
ReplyDeleteI would just like to inform you all that you are able to listen to your classic Vinyl Records, even if you have to keep the bulk in storage. I am talking about USB turntables that allow you to take that vintage sound, and change it to digital form. Stop by and check it out.
Always,
AMS
