  1. Hey @HDN, the record player is out.  I know you're a McCartney fan, and here's the one actual vinyl record of his that we have.

      Funny that you mention this now, as I just turned on a McCartney song for the first time in a while.

      I do miss my record player; I've had to put it away for a while to make room for all the Christmas decorating. Your's seems to be of a much-higher quality!

      There are a few good songs on that album, "Coming Up" is one, but its generally regarded as one of his weaker albums. I don't think I've listened to that album in its entirety. Then again, they said that McCartney 1 wasn't great, and I rather enjoyed that one. That one celebrated its fiftieth anniversary this year. So, you do you. Don't assume that something is going to be bad because of its reputation. For instance, 2600 Pac-Man. I love that game! Who knows, you might like McCartney II after all (or maybe not).

      I think I'll have to give that one a listen at some point. Perhaps I'll enjoy it.

      And also, I see "2600 Space Invaders: The Album"! I believe that one's "Don't Look Back"? I don't listen to Boston.

      This reminds me that I have "The Amazing Adventures of Pac-Man" on vinyl on display in my office.  Time to fire that one up.

      Honestly, I don't think I've listened to McCartney 2 all the way through.  Not my cup of tea. 

      Our record player has a USB connector, so you could theoretically record digital copies of records.  I have never tried that though. 

      Now THESE ones I think are awesome:
