My eldest son Matt did something today, which most of us did at his age without a second thought, but today is a very rare event. He bought a couple of 7" singles.
They are both by the gloriously named "Get Cape, Wear Cape, Fly" and form a set. They were 99p each and tonight we have fired up my record player to enjoy them. This also involved me getting one or two of my collectibles to show him that what he did today used to be the norm.
It was very strange as after he bought them, we went for a coffee and he just sat in Starbucks and kept staring at them, taking them out of their sleeves and generally being completely overalled by these two works of art he had just purchased. It has to be said that no CD or download has ever had that effect on him. Vinyl may have had it's day but it does still have the ability to bring out the same emotions that we encountered when we were 14!
It's IPT -7!
