Broken Record - Enjoying the Music of Relationship Through the Hisses, Pops, and Scratches (Paperback)

Relationships are like records. Remember those things? Vinyl? Larger than a CD? Some would argue the purest audio recordings are vinyl records. But, they are fragile. Records require special care. you can't toss them around, leave them in the sun, or let them get dusty. Still, they develop hisses, pops, and scratches. It's inevitable. And, because life is what it is, our relationships get hisses, pops, and scratches--it's the nature of the beast. This book is about the records we have saved for and purchased, the ones we have been entrusted with. It's about properly taking care of them and playing them over and over again until they become part of us. Become a relational audiophile. Learn to listen carefully to the music, to appreciate it beyond the initial, most obvious instrumentation. Fall in love with it, maybe all over again.
