Project Vinyl


I've rarely mentioned it on six feet in heels, but I'm crazy about music. In high school, I was one of those girls who judged everyone based on their musical taste, dated boys in bands and felt extremely hardcore and legit. I even have a shirt that says "I listen to bands that don't even exist yet". I hope you catch my drift.

Anyways, I also have a vintage record player, gifted to me by my dad. It was his - he actually used his student loans to buy it! He also never threw out a record and now I have them all. That means not only do I have a huge collection, I also have plenty of records I've never even listened to. So I've decided that my (early) New Year's Resolution this year is to a) listen to all of my records and b) bulk up my vinyl collection. Seriously, when you listen to music on vinyl and then on CD or your computer, there is just no comparison!

So, as part of my Recharge Year, I'm starting up Project Vinyl. I'm going to try to listen to a new vinyl album each day until I have exhausted my collection. I know I must have so many gems just hiding amongst my records and I want to experience all that the 70's and 80's had to offer!

So without, further ado, I'm kicking off Project Vinyl with.....

December 12th - Bob Dylan "Hard Rain"

Do you listen to vinyl? Any "must have" albums?
