... at my age, it's a great relief that one can now fairly firmly say "music [books/films/food/people... ] I know I'm never going to like" - so that one can get on and concentrate on the good stuff. I haven't got time to waste on Messrs Brian, Vaughan Williams, Shostakovitch...Originally posted by Caliban View Post

We popped into the HMV shop in Princes Street and got the Weilerstein Elgar/Elliot Carter concertos for... a single pound! For another pound came a Partricia Pettibon cd of Baroque stuff on DG.Originally posted by Barbirollians View PostComment

I do agree with the first sentence. I refuse to rise to the mischievous second....

Record Store Day: CD Review 18 April
(There was a thread on this subject but I couldn’t find it)
10.45 am
To mark Record Store Day Andrew is joined by life-long record collector and chief music critic of The Times Richard Morrison, and retailer Chris O'Reilly to discuss the current habits of the UK's record-buying public. With a virtual wallet containing £50 in their pockets they tell us what they would buy.
I expect everyone here has happy memories of the time spent in his/her favourite record shop. I do, and I hate to say this (it sounds terribly philistine) but are record shops such an irreplaceable cultural institution that we should not abandon them? Beyond the nostalgia, I don’t miss them/it.
I’ll be interested to hear how this slot goes.Comment
