One for maddog ;D www.bbc.co.uk/blogs/walesmusic/2010/09/vinyls-dirty-glamour.shtml"While new records are pristine and static-stuck to their sleeves, old records have a very particular smell. I can be transported back to the Eighties in an instant by having a good sniff of Jethro Tull's Aqualung. Likewise, there's a sensory aspect to the opening of a tasty gatefold sleeve in full artistic splendour."

There is a distinct wiff about acetate recordings, think that's why Beatles' records/acetates go for such high prices along with those of Marc Bolan's. I think it's more to do with the memory of buying a certain disc and the expectation before you actually got it on the turntable. Plus you could read the lyrics and sleevenotes without putting on your reading specs
