More mainstream news on growing interest in vinyl

Go Johnny Go !

Ha! Back in the early eighties, when all of the hipsters were opting for "Perfect Sound Forever," I, and my fellow nerds, cleaned up on vinyl at the hipster's garage sales.

Thank you hipsters very much. Your RCA's, Mercury's, Turnabout's, Westminster's, Contemporary's, Blue Note's and Angel's are sounding absolutely amazing on my turntable every night.

That's what the mainstream news has been saying for years. Ever since 1982, actually. What I'd like to know is where is the cassette revolution in the mainstream news?

People are returning to vinyl for better sound and a more involving listener experience (large artwork, legible liner notes). Pre-recorded cassettes offered neither. They were for convenience and mobile sound, not better sound.

Well, they were better sounding than say CDs, that's for Gol Dern sure. Tape, any tape, is a natural medium. It breathes.
