For my birthday my son and daughter in law gave me an Amazon gift certificate. I'm using it to load up my Ipod for the trip (what else!). I discovered you can buy the music from Amazon a lot cheaper than I Tunes.
I had a large collection of 33s and 45s from my 'childhood', but they didn't survive my children's 'childhood' quite so well! (Once, while we were in Germany, I found them playing...they were basically skiing...using my vinyls as skis on the tile floor!) I actually still have them in a box...somewhere.
So, my goal was to find as many of the albums and singles as I can afford and put them on my Ipod. So far I have some old Chicago, Moody Blues, Raiders, and some Phil Collins. In my research I neglected to find out how the music is different...when technology is involved. I saw the songs, listened to that brief snipet of music and got all excited!
When I listened to the music, it wasn't quite 'right'. See, I've listened to it so many times, I have memorized the subtle changes in tone and tune...some of these songs were just a bit 'off, while some didn't even sound like the same people singing.
So, the next time I download oldies, I will pay more attention to the words, re mastered, re mixed, and re recorded! They are NOT all good!
