The purpose of this blog is for me to discuss my love of music, and to write about one of my favourite pastimes... shopping for music! Yes, I still buy CDs - I even buy vinyl! There's nothing like going into a store and filing through CD after CD or album after album finding a new record that will introduce me to a new voice, a new era or a new music genre. Every new record is a new experience, and I never tire of the discoveries. Of course, it's taxing on my wallet. CDs, even in an industry that is dying, remain pricey (especially reissues and special deluxe editions, which I love purchasing). However, I still choose to put my hard-earned money towards artists. I do download, but I just don't enjoy it as much. I prefer having the physical CD, seeing the album cover, the art design, the liner notes, the credits, the lyrics! This blog is for those out there who still buy physical forms of music, whose homes are cracking at the seams with too many albums/8-tracks/CDs/cassettes. But it's also for those who simply love music and who also want to discover new music. I hope you enjoy it! To start things off, here is a track from one of my favourite albums - an album which I have bought in various formats - Dusty Springfield's "Dusty in Memphis".
