Jimmy Durante (some younger readers may need to look him up) used to say "Everybody's gotta get into the act!" and when it comes to vinyl, he was correct! It's sold at Whole Foods (which because of some of the customers I encounter there I like to call "A-Whole Foods") at Urban Outfitters (along with Crosley "groove chewers"), Target and other unlikely vinyl venues.

Now HDTracks, the pioneering high resolution digital downloading service, has added a vinyl store from which you can order and purchase LPs. If you click on the above hyperlink be sure to click there on "go to category" to see the full offerings.

If you hover your mouse over a title and click on "QUICK VIEW" you'll get information that is sometimes useful and sometimes not, like this info you get about the stereo Sgt. Pepper's...: "This vinyl pressing contains the 2009 digital remaster of the album, making it sound more vibrant and electrifying than ever before."—not that some of the hype filled jargon on other vinyl selling sites is any better.

For now the site is offering some good discounts.

Welcome to the vinyl world HDTracks!
