Never been a massive fan of Albums on vinyl so haven't bought any so far. Played a lot over the years (not owned) I preferred single track or EP years ago.

Me and an old school friend found £30 on the street, on the way to a lesson that got cancel due to an issue with the building.

We ended up walking several miles and stopped at a record shop (no longer in business) and he got External Link/Members Only and I got some other 12".

Later that day he want some thing else and I swapped my last bit of cash for his copy "20,000 Hardcore Members" which is what I consider my first bought (second hand) 12".

After years of collecting vinyl, I've moved to CD (which I didn't like when they first came out and digital media, later but still play vinyl and move with the times. But not really streaming much I prefer media I can have a copy of not just some where online cloud based  (which is good for back ups) and needs internet to work

Recently went to their last ever live gig!

Sad to see how his health has deteriorated . Looks a frail old man on stage now. I believe his son plays the drums for Genesis now on tour. Quite like Genesis but was never a fan of Phil Collins solo work ( apart from " in the air tonight " )

Mr Wonderful by Fleetwood Mac.
That's the real Fleetwood Mac not the one with girls in.
Bought it as I thought it would have songs like Albatross on it, big mistake.
All twelve bar blues which got me into that type of music.
Never looked back and still play it.
It sounds so fresh compared to most of the dross served up today.
