Default Records again

Quite possibly, it is because we must sit there and get ready to flip sides
of the record. Causes us not to "go anywhere", so we must remain focused on
the task at hand.
I'm not complaining, I love records. I just wish they lasted 74 minutes per
side.

Has anyone else here noticed/experienced this? When I listen to CDs, I
usually listen to a couple, then turn the stereo off and go do something
else
(like work on the restoration of my Alfa Romeo GTV-6) . But when I listen
to
vinyl, I find myself caught-up in the listening. One record leads to
another
and then another. If I had a dollar for every time I've stayed-up almost
all
night listening to records, I could easily pay for that $10,000 paint job
I
want for my Alfa!

There seems to be something compelling about listening to records that CD
can't match (at least for me). I don't know what it is. I like digital,
hell,
I record digitally and get very realistic sounding results. I have read
articles by audio writers who have expressed experiencing this phenomenon
as
well, but I'm just wondering if anyone on this forum has had similar
experiences?
