I guess I should have written here first. I'm Lori, and Astra is also my /nick in the LR and Vault. I'm mad about Jack, and recently got back into collecting vinyl even though CDs have been my primary form of collecting. I've always had to have something, and was kind of bitching to myself about no real places close that sells music I want.
I recently got into The Black Keys, and in context of them, The White Stripes kept coming up. I remembered a lot of times I'd listened in the past (all the way to around '01 or '03-ish!) but wasn't a huge, huge fan, and no idea why. Researching them more in searches and Youtube, I recognized some Raconteurs songs I liked too from the radio, and I didn't even know about TDW. When I read about Jack and TMR, my respect for him went way up. This past Christmas, instead of back-collecting TBK, I shelved that one and started, first in CD, the aforementioned bands. I should have done this ten years ago. And I'm collecting vinyl slowly. I'm not much of a vinyl player right now, but I can remember having records as a child so the meaning of it isn't lost on me. I can also remember I was so bad at playing mine I scratched them bad. I'm terrified of ruining any of what I'm getting now
