Description I've seen this done a number of times before, and really wanted to give it a shot. I've always liked the way a vinyl looks, and thought it lended itself much better to photography than cassette tapes or compact discs ever have. Maybe because looking at a vinyl, you know exactly what you're going to get. Pitch for pitch, audio wonders created in little pits of plastic. There's nothing quite like an analog single, I just need a better needle.

The LP is the soundtrack to Star Wars Episode IV: A New Hope, if you were wondering.

Records are pretty interesting, they give you something tangible to look at to see where the music's coming from, rather than putting a cassette or CD into a closed compartment and then listening. Now, with iPods and whanot, who knows how they get the music in that one little piece of plastic? Hehe, but it's always plastic giving us the music XD.

Having the center of the record a little off in the picture itself makes it more intersting to look at then if it had been in the very center ^^.

It's funny how far we've come, and yet how little has changed. Always trying to copy what we had to start with. Thanks for the .
