Transcript:
Katy: I don't like record albums...all that crackling. Adam: That makes it more authentic. Katy: Authentic to who? The Rice Krispies people? Adam: Nice one, Katy. Katy: "Snap" and "Pop" might like it, but not me. Adam: Okay. I get it. Katy: Maybe Zeus should have said "release the Crackle!" instead. Adam: You're grounded.

As a vinyl lover, I’ve certainly seen plenty of well scratched records. Having said that, I have records over 50 years old that are just as quiet and have better sound than any CD.

Crackling doesn’t mean it’s authentic. Crackling means it dirty.

My kids love my record player – they are fascinated by the needle and turning and stuff… so much more interesting than a piece of steel with sound coming out.

Analog reproduces sound waves, digital only approximates them. But, really, what matters is how recording method is matched to the medium. That’s what determines how good a recording sounds.

Remember the Discwasher microbristle brush system to clean records?

@pipebongsrus: I remember the Discwasher system and D2..
Digital can only approximate the original sound analog can capture, but digital has come a long way. Still my old Year of the Cat by Al Stewart vinyl blows away the later digital versions I have truest
