What got you into Vinyl ?

I started collecting almost 3 years ago when I kept popping into a record store @waxandbeans. Couldnt afford a decent turntable until recently though so I waited. Money was all over the place so I bought and sold but Ive got back all the ones I sold. For me its a combination of the sound quality and The local community on it.

But what got you into Vinyl ?

I'm old, records were what I bought till they got really cheap and shitty (manufacturing wise) them cd's, when vinyl resurfaced I was straight on it

It was the only thing available in my youth. I am nearly 70 :-)

My Dad starting collecting records again about 2013 or so and I came along for the ride

my dad had vinyl since I was a kid, just kind of always been around... old friend gave me a turntable and mixer after I gave him a laptop, I had some records around and then whenever I go to a show I buy the album.

Found some of my dads old records at my grandparents house and I haven’t looked back and that was probably 15+ years ago. Now he’s back into collecting too, it’s great

Started DJing in the early 90’s and have never stopped collecting.
