Well, I decided to get the vinyl copy of The Hissing of Summer Lawns, after all. You 
can never have too much Joni now can you!

I loved the observations people made about the "tangibility" of LPs - the larger 
photo, the glossy album, the substancial weight and size of the whole package. As a 
teenager I had six of my favourite LP jackets up on the wall, arranged in a large 
square over my stereo. If you can guess the six albums you win a million dollars. 

Anyway, I haven't played, or even opened, the record yet. But I'm glad I bought it!

I'm a secret record-collecting madman and just came out of the closet as such, I 
suppose.
