Anybody else regret flogging their records when cd’s became the next big thing? Not me I still have quite a bit of vinyl that I haven't got round to selling but as I have no record player it's pointless keeping it I actually like CDs and am convinced they'll start rising in value in the next 10 years So long as I can hear a song I don't care about anything else. I have gazillions of tracks digitally and that does me |

I was a bit of a nerd with my vinyl and each outer sleeve would have a small sticker with filing number on the back. I sold it all to a shop on Mansfield Road, Nottingham for peanuts. Fast forward to 2014 and I bought a joblot from a fellow dealer in Driffield. In this lot was a copy of Peter Gabriel's Melt.....with one of my handwritten stickers on the back. Nottingham to Driffield to Scarborough and still in good condition. |

Anybody else regret flogging their records when cd’s became the next big thing? Gave all mine away to a mate about 20 years ago.  Fortunately when he decided to emigrate to Sweden at the start of this year I got most of them back.  One or two missing but can't complain. Most by Killing Joke ( + other Coleman, Walker, Glover, Ferguson, Raven projects ) Then The Fall..... then Husker Du ( inc Sugar, Bob Mould & Grant Hart solo projects ) |

Probably the Grateful Dead, given the huge number of live retrospectives (including a 74-CD box) they've released.

Never had you down as a Dead Head
I've never understood the appeal
Just (in the main) sounds like bang average country and blues

Just (in the main) sounds like bang average country and bluesSome of their music is country and blues-based. Some is wild avant-garde improvisation drawing on jazz and classical music. They've also dabbled in all kinds of other music, essentially being magpies who will borrow from any style at any time. Their most interesting studio album is probably 1975's Blues For Allah, which is jazzy avant-prog with lots of Arabian elements but also some quite catchy tunes. |

Slightly different to a lot of the stuff I have heard but still, ultimately, very noodly and the sort of thing you might hear in a lift. Really not my cup of tea. Clearly the work of complete stoners |

Clearly the work of complete stoners Their music certainly is noodly: if you don't like spindly, ornate music you're not going to like the Dead much. The album after Blues For Allah, Terrapin Station, also dabbled with progressive rock, but of a completely different kind: the title suite, which is utterly sublime, drew on baroque classical music and featured a full orchestra and classical choir. It's worth listening to the end, as the middle instrumental section (reprised at the end) is superbly crafted. They never attempted anything like it again, with all their subsequent albums being straight rock. |
