Man o man, I got almost all of this stuff on vinyl and very little in electronic format for my Ipod. Got to find a way to change that without breaking the bank. Not so sure I want to re-record them myself from vinyl though. Might be the best way when it is all said and done.
You can buy one of those new usb turntables I think there going for around $100, or I just use the rca outputs on the turntable to 1/4" headphone jack and plug it into the mic input on your computer. I have my whole vinyl collection backed up on my computer doing it that way, I use a program called Cool Edit Pro. You can mess with the levels and background noise to get a nice crisp digital recording.
so many albums so hard to pic just a few. I really can't

I got a live show of Little Feat off of the Wolfgangs Vault site. It is basically the same set as waiting for Columbus but with better live solos and interaction within the band. Great piece of music.
U tube has some awesome quality videos from Holland in 76. Check them out there are several tunes great stuff, great band.
Here is one with them doing one of my favorite tunes from Feats don't fail me now.
