Odd that I should start this thread seeing as I'm a HUGE vinyl LP fan.  But since there are some things that are not out on vinyl or are too outrageously scarce and expensive on vinyl, it seemed appropriate to give a nod to some of the music on CD we appreciate or even cherish.

My first entry here is something I picked up- sealed, no less!- at our local Goodwill store and I'm head over heals for this album.  It's one of those, "I can't believe I haven't heard or had this record before" kind of things.  Absolutely marvelous!  Very scare and out of my budget on vinyl, but the CD sounds great and the music is majestic!

    I think Gigaton was the last CD I bought.  I still buy the odd PJ thing on CD, but I buy Vinyl and/or Digital now.    I do keep some kind of device in the living room that can play cd's (Xbox One X) if I feel the need, but they get dusty :(

    Here’s some recent acquisitions. The PJ stuff came in trades with a fellow board member except for the European Gorge promo set in the plastic wallet which was an eBay find. Australian and South African copies of Ten,  a Mexican Vs., and a bunch of old silver pressed boots. And then some Bowie and Rush.

    Really enjoying this album. Didn’t pick up the last album so am pleasantly surprised by this one.

    Saw this lovely couple at an annual Celtic music festival northwest of Calgary last weekend. Check them out! 
    First CD I have purchased in 20 years, at least. Lol

    I just realized after my new car purchase I don't have a cd player.

    It seems really strange to me that a lot of new cars don't come with a CD player, and even more strange that many do not come with a spare tire.  My 2008 Toyota has one of those stupid, nearly worthless "donut" spare tires.  Cutting corners at every turn!

    It’s the only CD player I have. 

    I don’t think it comes with one either, you have to get the DVD player, which then plays cd’s.  Seems stupid because I don’t have any DVD’s either and it won’t play blue ray 

    it’s maddening
