Man, I hadn't seen the album Cellophane Symphony in years! Used to have it, but somewhere over the years it grew feet. Some great tunes - Evergreen, On Behalf of the Entire Staff and Management, Pappa Rolled his Own as well as Sweet Cherry Wine, Making Good Time and others. Yep, some good times listening to that album!

I'm listening to more records now that hockey season has started.
I DVR all the games, mute the game, fast-forward past ads and use records for a soundtrack.
I usually play something rocking like Scorpions, Aerosmith, Hendrix, etc...
Since I've been going through my boxes of incoming-unlistened-to-yet I decided to try a different approach...
Simon & Garfunkel ~ Wednesday Morning, 3 AM (1964)
lol NOT hockey music! At least none of the players heard The Sounds Of Silence
Roger Mozian ~ Spectacular Percussion - not so spectacular
29 Strings And Then Some - ho hum
Jack "Bongo" Burger ~ Let's Play Bongos! (1964) - NOT Bongo Fury
Then some more half-a-side-is-all-I-can-take until I needed to hear something good
Eddie Condon ~ Chicago and All That Jazz (1962)
Had to crank some music I could hear in the other side of the house today
Pink Floyd ~ The Wall (1979)
Big Brother & the Holding Company ~ Cheap Thrills (1968)
Janis Joplin & the Full Tilt Boogie Band ~ Pearl (1971)
Steve Miller Band ~ Number 5 (1970)
I slit the wrapper on this brand spankin new 41 year old 1970 Capital Record Club release - sweeeet
The Alan Parsons Project ~ Pyramid (1978) - I like Tales Of EAP & I Robot but this is crap
Van Morrison ~ Tupelo Honey (1971)
I'm going with early Van Halen and Guns N Roses for hockey tonight - no more Art & Paul during the game

oh man - you are gonna have to reinforce your home's foundation with all that vinyl!!! How about a picture or two showing how they are stored?
Definitely agree with your comment about that Pyramid album - that was a total disappointment. I Robot is still a fav here. Glad you are still having fun there. :)
