Santana “Lotus” Japanese pressing. The most elaborate folding and art ever done on any album. The Japanese must really love Santana. It’s a true masterpiece of Love and “Live recordings” I cannot find an American pressing that is as complex in the fold outs. It’s very beautiful 🙏🏻
What was the best vintage LP you have ever found and why was it so?
I am a prolific vinyl collector. I think that I have almost every album that I ever purchased but I often wondered what happened to an album I used to play a lot in grade school..
Some of mt records are collectible. However, one of my very best memories (not just LP related!)
was when a friend visited me from out of town. It was snowing and most shops downtown had closed.
We found a thrift store and as I thumbed through a box of albums they had sitting on the floor, I spied
a treasure from my childhood. It was an old Christmas album that I played over and over in 6th grade.
When I saw the album cover I couldn't believe it. I had forgotten the name of the record, but I instantly recognized the cover. It was in excellent condition and I think I paid something like fifty cents for it. I play it a lot at Christmas, and even pull it out and play it a few times during the year. Music therapy!
