A few years ago I started collecting Vinyl too. It's a lot of fun and it's a great thing to do when you travel too. Whenever I'm in a new town (for work) I'll check out their local record shops. It's also fun when you have friends that collect too (or a girlfriend) so you can swap records etc. It is the listening experience at it's apex imo and not as much for the sound quality as for the entire experience; Album art, the tactile experience etc.

My favorite record that I own is Yesterday and Today by the Beatles. It's the famous "Butcher Cover" that was pasted over with the suitcase cover: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yesterday_and_Today I have a pasted over version that is near mint condition. I love the history behind it. That, along with superior sound quality, is something MP3's just don't have to offer.

ecib, bgood79, cgod I know all of you collect, I'm wondering if you have a favorite(s) record for nostalgia's sake?
