Hate to burst your bubble. But My 14 year old daughter listens to the
local '70's station and requested and got a Jimi Hendrix CD for
Christmas. Now I get to listen to it as well, when I can get it out of
her CD player. She also joins us for a once or twice a month LP marathon.
Yes I said LP as in vinyl records. We have a nearly 300 LP collection
that I am not going to give up for the world!!! (I think they have a
better musical presence than any CD I ever heard IMHO)
