I got back into vinyl (after a 20 year hiatus) not because people my age (middle age) were into it, but because I noticed all the young people were getting into it. My son (20 at the time) had roommates his age who only listened to vinyl.
Me too. It was my 20-year-old stepson, who found an old B.I.C. 912 in the garage, who hooked it up and got it running, and then kept bugging me to take him to some used record stores. Then one day we were out and he spied a garage sale with audio equipment. After a 25-year vinyl hiatus, I bought a Yamaha belt drive TT for $2, and then I got hooked too. 2 weeks later I bought my Technics SL1210 m5g and Shure M97xE. Since then (6 weeks ago) I've acquired over 100 LPs.
