Yes, it is a nuisance, but it is based on how we played records in the 1960s and earlier.
Do they still do the 1,4 and 2,3 on remasters? That would annoy me.
I do wonder when it was changed to 1,2 and 3,4. And if it varied by record company. The last album I remember being the old way in my collection was George Harrison's "All Things Must Pass". Geez, I just looked Stevie Wonder's "Songs In The Key Of Life" 1976 was still changer ready.
I'm digitizing some of my vinyl, so that solves the extra steps of swapping out those discs.
I'm going to do Wishbone Ash's "Live Dates" tonight.
Really, how many double albums do you have? I think I probably have lesx than 30,but that is just a guess.

Nawww... I think I DOUBLED UP on meds. Sometimes I forget. I have around 2500 LP's currently, down from a peak of about 3500. I've been selling off the duplicates and rejectoids, so it would take a while to count the doubles count the doubles.
What got me thinking so deeply about this thorny issue was an inmate recently asking for a recommendation regarding a record changer. Imagine-- A REKKID CHANGER, in this day and age! I like the guy.
Getting ready to pull out the Christmas LP record changer. I love spinning 6 records at a time and hearing that satisfying "Plop!" followed by the dulcet tones of Mel Torme singing Christmas tunes.
Have you considered digitizing those Christmas LPs, you could then do custom playlists.
And, please it is too fucking early to be thinking about Christmas. I try to ignore until Thanksgiving. Of course these days they start advertising right after Halloween. Which used to be my favorite holiday, no presents, costumes, I could be something or somebody else. Good parties, I miss that. After about 45, Halloween just becomes another nuisance. Buying candy for kids that don't live in my neighborhood. Bah humbug!
