  • Summary

  • Cheers - This is Alex - your music man, record guy, host and curator of The Vinyl Playground Podcast.

    Here, I take a look at a rather large collection of records, my family's record collection. 12 record collectors under the same roof, and the music we collectively bought between 1936 and 1987.

    Originally intended as a personal letter between 2 musical cousins discussing family and music, The Vinyl Playground has bloomed into a "musical family tree" with almost 100 years of recorded music.

  • The Vinyl Playground Podcast - "Ep. 8 - Love, Honor and Meat Lips Mix-Tape"
    Jul 27 2024

    Fall, 1984 - I was a newly-minted high school freshman, surrounded by the then-current Top 40 (Prince, Madonna, Michael Jackson, Springsteen, Cyndi Lauper, etc.). My ear, however was tuned to the music of nearly 20 years earlier - the music of the 1960s.

    And mixed in with the music? First love. First kiss. Last suspension from high school. Yup - lots of firsts, plus music from Wham!, The Doors, Ennio Morricone, Band Aid, Love, Pink Floyd, Buffalo Springfield and Gary Puckett and the Union Gap.

    Fast recollection of the afterglow following my first kiss, freshman year high shcool, 1984. It was a doozy - and part of me is still "stuck on stupid." Cheers!
