   -> That's too bad.  I took great pains to preserve my LPs.  I     
   -> bought extra onion-paper sleeves and replaced the typical     
   -> factory paper versions.   
      
   Thees weren't mine to begin with; I bought them used, bit by bit over   
   the years. . .    
                                                              
   Now I try not to play them, being as I can find most full albums on   
   YouTube.                                              
      
      
   -> Hmmm..  genuine vs print wouldn't have made a difference from     
   -> the point of view of an audience.   
      
   True enough (album covers as backdrop in a play); I think the director   
   just liked the idea more than anything else. :)    
      
   But 'tis true, the printed ones would look shiny & new, while mine had   
   definite signs of aging.   
      
      
   -> I dunno.. I have favourites across all the different decades.   
      
   Oh, same, but my general favourite, for rock is '67 to '86.   
      
   I like some of most genres, except for rap & most pop, as they get too   
   repetitive or otherwise show the creators don't have any legit skills.   
      
   I particularly like Deep Purple, because every member was classically   
   trained, & it shows in how they forge a harmonious interplay of sounds.   
      
   & Pat Benatar, as she was operetically trained & could really wring some   
   sounds out of her  throat!   
      
   Freddy Mercury, too, had a special voice, as did the Frank (Sinatra)   
      
   I love music that I can close my eyes to, & just feel all sorts of   
   symphonc sounds wash all around me. . .
