Got a GREAT turntable a few years back that even gets through our occasional rock and roll minor earthquakes without skipping. They take up a LOT of space but you can't store them in the cold, so we just make do.

Figured it out - Hammacher Schlemmer is where we found the turntable and it's awesome. Just have to occasionally change out the needle, which is cheap.

We have every Beatles album as well, and lots of the ones after the breakup. All the Stones, most of U2....

on a turntable! We've been thinking about getting one as we have about 5 book cartons filled with LPs. When we get one I'm sure the grand kids will wonder what the heck it is and wonder what the round thing is..

I was so lucky to attend the watch party at the Rock Hall last year when they were inducted.
