I have very few... the perfect digital reproduction of CD's without cracks, skips and hissing suits me just fine.
Unless I was a massive musical snob with a superiority complex of course :-)
My favourite vinyl track to spin isn't a Queen song.
It's Waterloo Sunset by the Kinks.
It is just perfection. The best sounding pop song ever recorded.
Yep............Cheech n Chong! Heheheh............I knew someone would know that..........
Ya know, to go off on a tangent (I do love doing that!)..........
I have not smoked pot in something like 5 or 6 years, and even when I did, I was never a major 'pothead'..........I guess it was always something I could take or leave.........like if someone had some, ok, thats cool, I'll partake...........but if we were still hanging out and they couldnt get any more, so what?...........I never thought to myself, "Man I NEED some more pot!"...........lol.................but I still consider Cheech n Chong to be some funny stuff.............:P
Also.............at the last place I lived, there were a bunch of old classic rock records left behind by the previous tenants when we moved in..............(I remember Sheer Heart Attack being among them!).............we had a record player that for some reason played just a hair slow....................I remember listening to Inna Gadda Da Vida, and the singer sounded just like Elvis Presley..............
I still have my original records and the entire Queen collection. I played NOTW to DEATH but Queen II is still my favorite. And I agree with The Wizard that Waterloo Sunset is a great production and one of my faves!

People who don't mind a few cracks and pops are snobs, whereas people who insist on perfect digital reproduction aren't?
I'm sure that made sense in your head, but i'll warrant that's the only place it does.

I think the perfect vinyl pop songs ALL came from that era:-
Itchycoo Park - Small Faces
Penny Lane - Beatles
A Whiter Shade of Pale - Procul Harem
Everlasting Love - Love Affair
Something In The Air - Thunderclap Newman
Love Grows - Edison Lighthouse
San Francisco (flowers in your hair) - Scott McKenzie
Na Na Hey hey - Steam
all perfect for various reasons
