It is a collection of art...

It says a lot about us and our tastes/preferences. Other forms of art are to look at and enjoy, the LP is a unique form of art that has something to look at and listen to. It can say more about us than any other possession.

We listen as a foreground activity. I'm sure most of us select music that sounds great and makes us feel something. My mood dictates what I want to listen to. Sometimes I just listen but others times I really become a part of the performance. I love those sessions where I know exactly what I want to listen to and the selection of LPs seem to follow a magical order.

The LPs just seem to jump into my mind and the end of one LP tells me what I want to hear next. My LPs have music to cover all sorts of moods. I have bluegrass that has happy banjo sounds and blues that reaches my pain.

When the music is just right the hair stands up on my arms and I play all sorts of air instruments. I also think I can sing well when the music is reaching me. When the music reaches me I feel renewed. Everything is better after a great listening session.

When I don't listen for a long time I get very moody. Personally I need music to keep me happy. Its like a drug and it has terrible withdrawal symptoms.

I cannot remember not listening to music and humming a tune. All that I know is that its part of my life and I need to listen.

I'm glad I have this problem. Its a good one.
