Re: LPs, cylinders and eight-tracks

I have a wonderful collection of Scottish and Irish 78's and a perfect
wind up Victrola for playing them, alas sadly all had to put in storage.
But if the next album comes out on that format you can bet I'll be
unstoraging them all! Never did get a cylinder player, though a friend has
a few... As far as 8tracks, that concept never flew with me. Who wants a
song ending in the middle and pausing while it gets to the next track? No
thank you!
In the meantime I'm also in the USA and would seriously want a copy of the
lp, so if there's anyone willing to pick up yet another... maybe the 500
will sell out after all!
Wish I could be at the gig, though!

Scott:
Will the new LP be available on the website if it does not sell out at the
show?I ask for those of us who love the aeroplanes in the United
States...Can we purchase the LP before the show to guarantee us a copy???
Me:
A assume so? Chris?? They said they are pressing 500 and the capacity of
the Fleece is only around 400, so you should be ok. Even if the gig sells
out, I can't see everyone who goes trying to buy more than one,
somehow....
I'm happy to pick up one or two for people who can't make it if mail order
from the website isn't going to happen.

Me again:
I saw a wax cylinder gramaphone player in a junk shop window a while back
and went in to inquire, but it turned out that it was a non working
replica.
I do have a sizeable collection of 78s (and a nice old 60's Garrard SP25
on which to play them), so would happily accept it in that format. I
think Tom Waits released a 78 recently?
I was doing a college course on Popular Music a few years ago, and was the
oldest person on the course by a country mile. At one point they
distributed a load of music on old formats for us to peruse. The group I
was in were passed these strange plastic cases and the rest of them looked
noneplussed. "So I'm the only one in the room apart from the lecturer who
knows what an eight track cartridge looks like then?" Turned out the
answer was yes.
