Why Vinyl?
Although vinyl records do not technically equal the fidelity of CDs, they
continue to be a high
fidelity audio medium delivering listening pleasure to millions. Apart from those who insist that vinyl's sound is superior to CDs, adherents are
also attracted
by vinyl's other endearing qualities.
-- For some, the notion of the
analogue sound having been physically pressed into the disc gives a sense of tangibility to
the musical work.
-- That the technology works as well as it does, lends more
than a bit of "magic" to the listening experience.
-- The care in handling, playing and cleaning of records necessitates a
degree of involvement (even if small) on the part of the listener.
-- Then there is the emotional connection. There will be very
few people who grew up in the later half of the
twentieth century for whom music played on vinyl records did not play an
important role in various of facets of their coming-of-age.
-- Also, album covers,
inserts and other embellishments are sometimes works of art and fonts of trivia that can be a great
accompaniment to the music.
All-in-all, I think that listening to
records is an entirely different experience to listening to digital media. It's an
occasion, an event.
