CAKE 'PROLONGING THE MAGIC' LP

Owning a vinyl record is like owning a piece of art, with each record having its own unique characteristics and imperfections. To prolong the magic of vinyl, proper care and maintenance are essential. Handling vinyl records with clean hands and storing them in protective sleeves can prevent scratches and dust buildup. Regularly cleaning records with a record cleaning brush or solution can help maintain their sound quality. Investing in a high-quality turntable and cartridge is also crucial for preserving the magic of vinyl. A good turntable with adjustable speed settings and anti-skate controls will ensure that the record is played correctly and prevent unnecessary wear. Additionally, it is important to store vinyl records in a controlled environment to prevent damage. Exposure to direct sunlight, extreme temperatures, and high humidity can warp the records and degrade the sound quality. Storing records vertically in a cool and dry place will help maintain their condition. The resurgence of vinyl records in recent years is a testament to the enduring appeal of the medium. The magic of vinyl lies in its ability to transport listeners to a bygone era and create a connection with the music that goes beyond a mere digital file. By taking proper care of vinyl records and investing in high-quality equipment, the enchantment of vinyl can be enjoyed for generations to come..

The album lacked cohesiveness, and it felt like a collection of random songs put together. It's not a terrible album by any means, but it definitely didn't live up to the high expectations I had for Cake. I would recommend giving it a listen, but don't expect to be blown away.
