Thrifting down at The Princeton Record Exchange in New Jersey today I found mint condition LPs of Frank Sinatra's A Jolly Christmas from Frank Sinatra , Dean Martin's A Winter Romance, and Percy Faith's Christmas Is.... The Percy Faith LP was only $1.00, and Dean Martin went for a song at $1.99! How could I resist? I already own each and every one of these albums on CD but there's just something magical about watching the vinyl spin on my Crosley turntable and listening to the music on its crackly speaker. Once you hear the rich warmth of the LP version of an album, the CD version sounds cold and sterile in comparison. Plus I love the HUGE album art!

I searched and searched for anything non-Christmas related that I could listen to and enjoy now, but I couldn't find one album! And even though the holidays are over, I simply had to buy these LPs today or risk losing out on owning them - the merch moves pretty quickly at The Princeton Record Exchange!

I&#39;ll just have to go back one day soon to locate that lost Jackie Gleason album I didn&#39;t buy a few months ago. [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/tongue.gif[/img] I love me some Jackie Gleason music&#33; [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin.gif[/img]
