My dad used to have every Lightfoot album ever made on vinyl. He used to keep them downstairs in the closet and I thought they were the coolest things ever. Unfortunately, about 9 years ago he got rid of his turntable and brought all the Lightfoot albums to a record store, but the man didn't want them!! (Could you believe that??)So my dad ended up throwing them all away.
So 3 years ago, we finally got a beautiful Pioneer turntable (which currently resides in my bedroom)at the thrift store for about $5.00. Realizing his mistake 6 years before, my dad went on a mission, to recollect every Lightfoot Lightfoot album once Again (With my help, of course). We started in late 2001 and finished in August 2004. They were purchased from both Ebay and Record Theatre (A local music store chan that has Lightfoot LPs from $.99-$2.00). We also have plenty of extras.
How about you?
On the subject of turntables, we just bought a beautiful one at a garage sale. The sound is just magnificent, much better than the CD/tape/radio, system that we have. But now just a short time later, the turn table does not turn. Any ideas, other than we might have gotten taken???? Suppose it's off to the repair shop. It's much better than the old one currently in our basement, which will not play vinyls, either.
