Howdy y'all
You may have noticed that the traditional album has made a comeback in recent months. Those who thought that iTunes had put an end to good, old fashioned long-players are probably feeling very foolish right now.
What has provoked this return to favor of the LP, I hear you cry? It's the new gimmick modeled by the likes of BRUCE SPRINGSTEEN, the PIXIES and DEVO: namely, the classic album tour. Why have a setlist when you can just play an entire album instead?
