Five years?? Surely you mean half a century... But it lasted long. The LP lasted half a decade? Five years?? Surely you mean half a century… But it lasted long.

It got lost in my dashboard. You're totally right about classical LP booklets. Cast albums often had large booklets as well. It didn't happen often for film scores though. If LP's were still the main form of media AND we had our current film music preservation, then, yes, you're probably right, the LP's probably would have come with extensive booklets. Maybe even more than the CD's do because of the larger canvas. There might be even more with Intrada, Varese, and some others. I do know that those CD booklets are incredibly cost prohibitive.

I guess we'll all have to wait and see what the future brings. But it might be time for you to take the plunge and start learning the digitals ways. Even if you don't necessarily download, you might be surprised at the ease of having a digital copy of the music on your computer, iPod (or other mp3 player), etc. Then again, maybe you're able to survive without it. If so, more power to you. :) Hi Shunta, thanks for commenting. I guess we’ll all have to wait and see what the future brings.

Most of the artwork is good. Most are my mother's and she has given them to me. The CD is okay. Digital music taking over? I hope not, but I think the first commenter might be right about where music is going. I don't know the first thing about the new craze and I guess if music finds it's way into download only I'll be left out in the cold because I wouldn't have a clue on how to do it or how to play it once I've done it.

Booklets were definitely possible with LP releases. Many Classical music LP's came with large booklets featuring liner notes and, if sung text was involved, reproducing the entire libretto. For some reason, the preservation aspect of film music was not as strong at the time as it is now. One could easily argue that, had the CD not been invented, today's soundtrack LP releases would come with extensive booklets. Would you agree? Sorry to be the one splitting hairs again.
