The Problem with Vinyl

By Stephen Mejias • Posted: Oct 13, 2008

Oh man. You see this record? It was only fifteen bucks. I really wanted it. I mean, it was kind of just there, looking at me, asking me to love it.

I wanted to love you The Shape of Jazz to Come by Ornette Coleman, I really did. But I just couldn't do it.

The problem with vinyl is you can't just buy one album. Vinyl needs friends to go home with. The problem with me is I don't like even numbers. So, I would have to buy at least three, maybe even five new albums, you see.

I am sorry The Shape of Jazz to Come. Someone else will love you, I am sure.

I just picked this up on CD this weekend, and I have to say that you're missing out, Steven. You can tell me the same thing when you (inevitably) wind up with a vinyl copy.

Stephen! If you pick up that LP for me, I'll pay you the $ plus 5 bucks for the gracias

Laurent: I am sure you're right!SD: I would have happily done this for you, but I'm already back in NYC. I'm sure we can find it here, too.
