Vinyl Records for Father's Day.

Does your Dad say things like "they just don't make music like they used to" or "back in my day, they knew how to write good songs!" Well, he could be on to something.  Maybe the songs were better, maybe not, but the sound of the songs pressed onto vinyl records and played on a turn table is different and special. And that retro sound is becoming very popular today. Here are a few quotes from around the web that describes the sound of vinyl and why it is attractive again:


 
Take a trip to Goodwill stores to find records from Dad's teen years, or find bands and singers he played for you when you were young.

 
Vinyl is also becoming more than just finding treasures at garage sales and thrift shops. Today's music artists are pressing records like Mumford & Son's "Babel", The Black Key's "El Camino", and The Zac Brown Band's "The Foundation".



So surprise Dad with some music memories. While hunting for albums, keep an eye out for an old turn table. Dad might need one of those too.
