The good news is…I recently found my old record collection! The bad news? I don’t have a record player. I’m working on that, and have this one on my wish list. However, just the sight of my records brings back so many happy memories. I have all of my beloved songs and albums in digital format of course, but it’s just not the same. I am yearning to hear the crackle, smell the vinyl, and watch it turn. Tell me…did you grow up with records, or develop a passion for them?

This musical musings post is dedicated to my Dad, who, along with my Mom, inspired me to be a music lover. I can hardly ever remember a time when music wasn’t playing in our house. We would dance, sing, and share the joy of it. These are just some of the artists (and albums) that immediately take me back to my childhood. Each and every time…it amazes me. What songs take you back in time?
