Abbey Road

Saw a record store new arrivals flip video where the vinyl was pulled from the sleeve.

I'm not a huge fan of color vinyl. I mean, it's ok occasionally and some variants and designs actually wow me.

But The Beatles on color vinyl .... well that feels like a sin of unparalleled gravity.

Maybe it should be an amendment to the ten commandments.

          11. Thou shall not put The Beatles on color vinyl.

 

With that visual bouncing around in my mind and the fact that it's been many years since I've listened to this record, I pulled out 'Abbey Road' this morning ... on black vinyl and also the remastered compact disc, The Beatles on cd concept seems mildly acceptable to me. 

There were flashbacks to long gone days of youth and the hours spent listening to my vinyl mentors record collection.
