Have you listened to the new Nevermen album much? I gave it a few listens but wasn't all that impressed initially.

I just received it in the mail today and haven't downloaded the MP3s yet, so I've only heard one song from when it was first announced. My expectations aren't super high - I was tempted by the artwork and color and made an impulse buy.

I believe it was Simply Red's 'Picture Book' in 1986

I think that's about the same time I last bought any vinyl as well. Maybe something as late as the early 90's, but if I did I can't think what that might be.

That doesn't count getting presents for other people, however. A couple years ago I bought my mother a few LP's for Christmas, since she still has a turntable.

I highly recommend getting a turntable again. If cash is an issue just cut back on some of the inessentials like clothes and food. I'd been without a working one for three years and just bought myself a new one for Christmas - so much fun. Great sound, big album artwork, and the whole ceremony of putting on a record where the turntable becomes a shrine.

Sidewinder: I'd love to see your whole collection, some awesome stuff just out of what you've posted on this thread.

Thanks! I post a lot of records on Instagram (as I listen to them) and have just created a separate account for that a few days ago, so I don't annoy all my friends with records every other day.

I'm still trying to transfer some past records to that profile, but I should be caught up in about a week and posting new stuff again. Also I've been cross-posting them to a tumblr:

Instagram: @allthatyouseeandhear
Tumblr: We Will Control All That You Seen and Hear

And there's also my Rateyourmusic profile that catalogs everything I have and listen to:

No idea but it would have been around 1985 or 1986.
