Most of my vinyl(~200 records) is from the early '70s through the '80s.
For instance, the next record is going to be "Let Them Eat Jellybeans", a
major punk rant of the era. A Google search turns up takusan hits.

Funny how many people like that stuff.
Many of my records are unusable for digitizing, and should be replaced
with CDs, when available, but I will have to judge how "listenable" they
are. Anyway, it's kinda fun doing this technological exersize.
A really well made record with a good turntable and cartridge is
amazingly good sounding, even today. I used a Techinics SL-1300 semi-auto
turntable, and a Shure M97 cart. I bought these a LONG time ago, '70s,
'80s. The phono pre-amp on my Denon AVR-2600 is pretty good! No noise
that I could hear.
Anyway, I thought I'd archive this stuff before the fungus got to them. (^^;;
