Vinyl on the Radio

This past Wednesday Los Angeles station KSWD (100.3) played entire album sides, entirely on vinyl, the whole day!. You could actually hear the needle hit the grooves and of course a little snap, crackle,and pop. Entire album sides such as Abbey Road and Dark Side Of The Moon sounded terrific. We can only hope they repeat this soon.

Doh! Rshak...more fool me. Thanks for setting me straight. Oh well. I actually thought the sound was a little better there than on some of the other channels! Too bad. The music is great - especially when they get into something less mainstream...Wishbone Ash comes to mind. One other thing I do like is hearing some of the old DJs from the days of "underground" FM out of NY and Phila (before playlists took over).

If you live in the NY/NJ area, CBS 101.1 has what they call,
"Turntable Tuesday". They play 45's all day and night. I love it.

Can you still hear the FM compression? I understand that can be eliminated by conscientious stations (who want to).
