Make MP3s from my LPs

I haven’t converted any of my LPs to MP3s in a long time. I need to get started on this again. I have a stack of albums just waiting to get converted.

I haven’t heard “Avenging Annie” in years. I love that song!!

I found this order form for a Roger Daltrey hologram pendant with the album. The offer expired March 1, 1978. Too bad. lol

This is the first album I’ve converted in 5 months. The album was very dirty and crackly. I only saved 6 songs from it. Two that I didn’t save I already had from a greatest hits album (Gypsy and Hold Me).

Since we moved, my LPs have been unearthed and I also got a USB turntable for Christmas so…. this should be “easy” once I find the time…. that’s the trick.

The software keeps shutting down when I try to flip the album! AAARG. I’ve tried on two different albums and the same thing happened. Waah.

Doing okay with recording my 45s, but it’s frustrating to spend so much time only to have the software crash.

I don’t want to transfer ALL my vinyl to mp3, becuase some of the albums are in pretty awful condition and/or are so rarely played it wouldn’t be worth the time, effort, or hard drive space. But I have a lot of great albums that I should transfer, at least 40 in total. Some old 70s folk and rock, standup comedy from Bill Cosby and George Carlin, and even the Saturday Night Fever soundtrack. Time to boogie on down to the office!

Good ol’ rock n roll!

Everytime you go away ….

This is a great album. I used to listen to it over and over. I think I like it so much because it’s fun to sing to.

This is another benefit concert for Amnesty International. This one has Sting doing “Roxanne” and “Message in a Bottle”, Phil Collins doing “In the Air Tonight” and “The Roof is Leaking, Bob Geldof doing “I Don’t Like Mondays” and some songs by Jeff Beck, Eric Clapton and Donovan. At the end, they all get together and sing a song together.
