Not long ago, the altar of almost every under-thirty household was a wall of shelving filled with 33 1/3 LP albums. Moving, and there was a lot of that, always required sturdy boxes filled with heavy vinyl disks and their covers. Yes, the records sounded great except for the scratches, but all you could do with them was listen. Can you imagine? Oh, you could read the liner notes. The mp3 file is very much with us yet, but it’s not the cutting edge it was when this comic was drawn in 2006. Streaming is big now, and a link, I suppose, is the only physical connection to one’s music collection. I don’t know if it’s better, but it sure makes moving easier.

Several celebrities have passed away this week. Mel Tillis, Della Reese and David Cassidy. A mixed bag there.

‘So long until tomorrow’, your sign off yesterday, used to be Lowell Thomas’s extro at the end of his moderately Republican commentary at 6:45 pm Eastern on WJZ, I think. Sponsor: Blue Sunoco. He lived on Quaker Hill, nr. Pawling, NY, I think before Norman Vincent Peale’s time. Have mentioned here before that Thomas and FDR had amateur baseball teams that played there and at Hyde Park. Saw FDR at QH once; he had ridden there in a LaSalle.
Peace,
emb, I have heard Lowell Thomas and read a biography of him at one time. Thanks for the background information. I was a fan of Paul Harvey too.
Our 35 year old son with broad tastes in music began with cassettes, then CD’s, & then MP3’s is collecting LP’s now. We ended up getting a new record player so he can play them for us. Amazingly high prices he’s paying sometimes, too! Luckily, our LP’s are still packed safely away! đŸ˜‰
