Comment:	Mike - the memories! I was (and still am) a massive music fan. Like you, I agree that vinyl packaging is best! I became a Christian in 1980 in Hartlepool (not far from you!). Your description of Christian bookshops of the time was spot on. My local store was called "Christiana" and the first two albums I bought were Larry Norman's 'Upon This Rock' and Bryn Haworth's 'The Gap' (his first album for Chapel Lane). These were quickly followed by two other Chapel Lane albums - The Barrett Band's 'Playing in the City' and (the totally brilliant) Mark Williamson Band's 'Midnight Diamond'. We managed to see MWB several times, most notably at Durham University were they were supported by Liberation Suite. Times have definately changed!!!!! When I get home from work some LPs will be getting their first airing for some time!
