I still buy CD's and then via iTunes rip then to MP3 and they then go on a memory card on an old mobile phone that I use for playing music via earbuds or speake. I buy CD's new and sometimes second hand, Music Magpie is fantastic for secondhand CD's, I recently bought a special edition of The Clash's "London Calling" (2CD/1DVD) for under a fiver and it was in perfect as new condition, most of their second hand stuff is in good condition. I'd never subscribe to streaming sites like Spotify as I think they rip off artists !! John 😎

Another great gone, way too young at 73, RIP Tom Verlaine John

In my view some modern is rubbish but some is fantastic, Miley Cyrus has just released a terrific song called "Flowers" which has gone to #1 in the UK and the USA, it's a brilliant pop song IMHO, one of my favourite artists Ian Hunter, who's in his eighties, has just released a song called "Bed Of Roses" featuring Ringo Starr and Mike Campbell which is also just as good but it's classic rock and not what you would call modern music, in the end for me it comes down to how good the song is and these are both excellent and weirdly both have horticulture themed titles LOL John 😎

One of Ian Hunter's solo albums is called: You're Never Alone with a Schizophrenic, always thought it was a great album title 😛 John 😎

Really liked the songs, vocally reminds me of Ryan Adams at times, fantastic playing and singing by all John 😎
