Hi-Fi Choice has always championed the much-loved format alongside new audio alternatives as they arrive, but it’s clear that the vinyl resurgence is reaching new audiences as well as reminding many that had forgotten why they once loved it so. As record sales continue to grow, April saw the format 113 make its biggest comeback so far with the UK’s eighth Black Rhodium Sonata VS-1 Record Store Day making 2015’s event the biggest yet with hardcore fans queuing up early outside local stores to get their hands on the numerous special and limited edition pressings made exclusively for release on the day. But, of course, the headline news is the introduction of a new weekly vinyl albums chart launched by the Official Charts Company following the upturn in sales – see page 79. Turntable brands have wasted no time in tapping into the market, and I reckon there are more decks available now than at any time since the seventies. In our Group Test starting on page 24 we select six bargain-priced models to see how well they spin our treasured records. Whether you’re returning to vinyl after a lengthy hiatus, looking to digitise your albums or discovering the joys of the black stuff and the yearning to get started on the Blur hi-fi track for the very first time, we’re sure to have a 99 The Magic Whip model that’s just right for you.

Now in it’s 8th year in the UK, the event has become a fixture of the vinyl lover’s calendar, and it’s easy to see why. Anything that celebrates the black stuff should be heaped with praise. But there’s a growing feeling that it’s having a detrimental eff ect and is getting away from its original goal. Before we start laying into RSD, let’s first look at the good stuff . This year saw a 3.3% percent rise of sales over last year and a 628% increase in vinyl sales on the previous week (April 11). So far, so impressive, but delve a little deeper and it’s no all quite so good news. Record Stores are off ered the ‘exclusives’ that prove so popular by distributors on a ‘firm sale’ basis meaning that they’re not sale or return like normal.

Poetry and other creative efforts should be levers, weapons to be used in the people's struggle for understanding, human rights, and decency. "Art for Art's Sake" is a misnomer. The poet can never be neutral. In a hungry world the struggle between oppressor and oppressed is unending. There is the inevitable question: "Which side are you on?" To be content with as they are, to be "neutral," is to take sides with the oppressor who also wants to keep the status quo.

  • 1 the Words December 2007 Over the Last 15 Years Or So I Have Been
    Songbook version January 2008 The Words December 2007 Over the last 15 years or so I have been collecting lyrics to songs - mostly old-time country, bluegrass, cowboy, and old blues songs. I wanted to consolidate these lyrics into one big searchable file that I could use as a reference. I started with the Carter Family, Stanley Brothers, Flatt & Scruggs, Bill Monroe, and Uncle Dave Macon sections, which I had in separate documents, previously downloaded from the web over the last few years. I can’t remember where I got the Carter Family or Uncle Dave songs, but the rest were mostly from Bluegrasslyrics.com. I had the rest of the songs in a huge binder. Excluding those that were already in the existing sections, I searched the web for lyrics that were close to the version I had. Other useful websites: www.mudcat.org www.traditionalmusic.co.uk http://mywebpages.comcast.net/barb923/lyrics/i_C.htm www.cowboylyrics.com http://prewarblues.org/ (not so many lyrics, but a cool site) There is a rough Table of Contents at the start of the document, and a detailed Index at the end. I’d recommend using the Index if you are looking for something in particular, or use your search tool. (There is no reason why some of the song titles are in CAPS but they are mostly Carter Family songs). I haven’t been able to read every song, so there may be lyrics that are insensitive, especially in the Uncle Dave Macon section. I’m sorry if I missed them.
