does anybody still listen

my mucic collection contains pretty much everything ive ever liked with over 2500 titles but over the last few years ive got selective & only keep about 500 or so in rotation,mostly jazz & blues,last week i decided to get the entire collection out & check it out.

i spent the day listening to stuff from my youth like alice cooper & black sabbath,queen & deep purple & king crimson & the likes,wow i forgot how much i had enjoyed most of this music,it hit me while alice cooper was playing(i love the dead)at how truly ground breaking alot of this stuff was for its time & how much i liked listening to older 60's & 70's rock music.

i was curiouis if anybody else's tastes had changed from the music that made them take up this hobby or if you still listen to everything you've liked in the past,for me im going to start listening more to the rest of my collection,right now i got grand funk spinnin & im pretty happy to be hearing it too.

That's almost reason enough to get a sea of CD magazine changers or a hard disk player. That way you can easily force yourself to listen to to stuff (especially B-sides) to albums that you have forgotten. Just put the "whole thing" on shuffle.

As for me, I still listen to a lot of stuff of my youth. But even at 27, there are some titles that still haven't gotten play in a while. But every once in a while I do queue them up.

For the most part right now I'm trying to make my way through the 100s of classical records that I haven't yet heard, yet are taking up most of the floor space in our basement.
