Subject: RE: 1960's Australian Folk Albums
Rich-Joy - I wasn't planning to get rid of the vinyl, it's too beautiful. Replace = buying CD versions of stuff I own & I've been doing that for years now. I don't have many records (about a dozen, maybe 20) & can't play them anymore. Some I have on tapes, some originals, others copied yonks ago on cheap Sony tapes but still usable, but I rarely play 'em.
Then I read your second post & wished I had lots more records as they might have funded my retirement. Some time back I read an article on Baby Boomers & learnt I'm going to be one of the Boomers living in genteel poverty. Some folks own zillions of records ... I hope I'll be able to afford the National & Jamberoo & the occasional CD.
The makers of the Declan Afflay CD are apparently going to make others, including I think Colin Dryden. Ask Bob Bolton for more info as he has a better memory than me & knows lots of useful stuff
