Never been into records, grew up late 80s and early 90s where cassettes were the cheapest option for pocket money, and then CDs were about to monopolize the market, so as it is I've only got one LP to my name. Complete Madness.
Purchased in mint condition for three pounds from eBay in 2005 as an 'investment'. A quick scan on the auction website today sees them for roughly a fiver. But given ten years has passed and the average rate of inflation, this mintas EP has depreciated. Badly. And Madness have never been so popular. Complete Madness indeed.
Anyway this was an earlyish greatest hits from One Step Beyond (album) to 7. I'm sure it sounds great. But it's never been listened to as -
1) It's an investment. It's my pension etc.
2) I've never had, or any access to, a record player.
3) It's rotting away in the damp of my mam's garage.
Anyway. I'm off to listen to Divine Madness. On Compact Disc format. In the car.
