Was listening to some music on my iPhone today while driving.
Shuffle of things.. Journey, Bee Gees, EWF, Neil Diamond, GnR, Disturbed, Tone Loc...
Then I get a track from Herb Alpert. A Taste of Honey. It was pulled from vinyl. I didn't realize how much I LIKE the crackle and hiss from a needle. Yeah the other songs are crystal clear and every minor imperfection brushed away, but there's something about that needle noise that I enjoy.
Herb could trumpet his ass off, BTW. It's a nice interruption in the mix.

Gotta love that Tijuana Brass. :)
Ever listen to any of The Hollies' stuff from the late 60's/early 70's? Doesn't quite have the hissing sound but it does have the Motown sound - like it was recorded in a cave with an echo. I like it.

I'd like to go back and get vinyl of everything I have pre-CD days. Back in Black album by AC/DC is ten times more awesome with the needle scratch carrying it. Same with Hotel California, The Long Run, Commodores and most of the KISS stuff. Alive I and II on vinyl? That's the shit. I hate remasters now.

They have this stuff all over the internet. Plus, I know there is a store in Birmingham that sells all vinyl.

Yeah. I know. I'm more saying that Herb convinced me to replace as much of my "pristine" remastered music with good old scratchy vinyl sound as I am wondering where to get it.

I got a record player for christmas a few years ago and I usually try and check out the Thrift stores and flea markets for some treasures. there is a lot of shitty records that are given the goodwill.

If you're looking for a good cheap place that has a shitload of vinyl, try the goodwill stores. My friend got me hooked when I was living in N'awlins. It was the last place I had even thought about having records. Although you might have to dig through a lot of shit to find one good one, you'll never know what you might stumble upon.

Yep, they are loaded with vinyls.
Also, if you are ever in the Auburn/Opelika area for games, etc...check out that Antique Mall in Opelika on 280, Angel's I think its called. I bought a poopload of records there a while back. Four Tops, Beatles, Joe South, Simon and Garfunkel - good ones. Many more. They had 1000's. Most were 1.00-5.00 each.
