A Post from a Minnesota visitor: "As far as we know, vinyl was the first tangible material to really hear a complete song on. Plus, with a full album, you get artwork, sometimes so incredible you can look and listen for hours. With covers you can hold, page through, having room for art, lyrics, stories all about the band, other thoughts, ideas and facts about the music, vinyl albums were a total multi-sensory experience. Not many things in life can offer that simply by just being what it is. What a treasure. So eventually, passing of time made vinyl albums obsolete. Until they were resurrected! Thanks to Record Stores around the country bringing it back! Very cool!"
