Wicked COOL, Derek!
Thanks Steven

The old National VCR has held up well over the years. Needed some TLC but got it running well again. The build is incredibly heavy, capacitors and other parts are huge inside that thing.

Fairport Convention - Nine - Vinyl - Italian Pressing










Have also spun these Fairport Vinyl Albums recently:

Babbacombe Lee
Bonny Bunch of Roses
Gottle O'Geer
Rising for the Moon
Rosie
Tippler's Tales

All are a great listen. Sandy Denny does outstandingly on "Rising for the Moon", I like to call that her album.
