A nice elegy for the death of the seven-inch
single. But cheer up, there's still lots of vinyl knocking
around on the secondhand market--! Every once in a

player (that cost me $170 on the internet a couple
years ago, & weighs almost nothing it's so completely
made of plastic)...& it sounds better than the same
recording from a CD.
