Wendy- colored vinyl is the bane of my existence My dh and son both collect it. It is so expensive....though I did not mind my dh purchasing The Zombies recent release on blue vinyl. Some of my sons favorite bands will release the same album in different colors. Sigh.....
I still have my eighties vinyl- U2 and The Alarm and Kate Bush and Hothouse Flowers. Would you believe cassettes are making a comeback now? We are really fortunate to have seven independent record stores within an hour radius of our house.

wow - interesting!
got to watch the Ringo Starr show tonight on AXS channel. they showed it twice, so i got to see it. The actual concert took 2 hours with no warm-up band nor any breaks/intermission. however, the AXS show was only 1 hour long with a couple of commercials. i've never watched that channel before, but now i will. they have some good shows on it. i rarely sit and watch TV. last night, i was watching CNN's special called "The Eighties". it was really fun to watch! they showed numerous pictures of Steve Jobs and Bill Gates. they had commentary from industry analysts from the current time (2016?) about Bill Gates' maverick ideas. they had a segment about how the home video industry exploded in the 80s. i didn't realize there was a supreme court ruling regarding consumers' taping of TV shows on their own VCRs (it was found to be OK). they showed Jane Fonda's workout too! and all of the video stores packed with people renting videos!

bzar-I am glad you could see the Ringo special. My DH recorded it last night. We enjoy that channel, especially since VH1 Classic turned into MTV Classic and the channel is horrible. All they show is 1990's shows and hardly any music.

My husband was a DJ when we met, so our bedroom is full of vinyl, two turntables, and a microphone.
I'm SO GLAD Depeche Mode is still popular!!! SO GLAD!!!!!
