“I actually didn’t truly discover the beauty of vinyl till I was about 21 years old when I found my mother’s childhood record collection in the basement of my grandma’s house.”
I grew up with cassette tapes and whatnot but when I found that collection, it changed the way I listened to music forever. The first record of hers I played was the Woodstock performance and was obviously blown away. I dusted off every vinyl she had and took them home with me and a new sound was born in my ears.
Now when I’m home, my passion for the classics grows and grows every day ’cause I put ‘em on at night by the fireplace and play ‘em thru my Gramophone.
There’s a record store in LA called Amoeba that you can spend 6 hours in going thru thousands of vinyl records that you totally forgot about or discover. I’m very happy that there has been a resurgence in young audiences who appreciate the sound.
I like to leave records all around my house almost like paintings on a wall…they are their own form of art.”
