Spinning My Dads Vinyl

Author: Frank Vaccariello

Extensive and Eclectic and we hear them as is with skips, scratches, and pops. Being a radio and mobile DJ for a decade and a half, I collected several hundred albums. I had nothing on my dad who owned more than 500 (33 1/3) LPs and over 100 78 RPMs at the time of his death in December 2019. I had no idea he had so many. We found them spread all over the house when we prepared for the estate sale. I went through every one and categorized them on an app called Discogs. I thought so many were unique, I decided to start a podcast called Spinning My Dads Vinyl. Each episode will feature an album. Ill tell stories about the family listening to these albums and Ill give other info about the album and the time it was released.

Volume 253: Valentines is for Lovers
Episode 253
Saturday, 14 February, 2026

Happy Valentine's Day! Of course my dad had plenty of romantic music. So that’s why we are able to do this special episode. There was a popular radio format known as Easy Listening. We listened to one of those stations from Cleveland when we were young. And there was one extremely popular orchestra that was the backbone of those radio station playlists. 101 Strings. So, get ready to hear the lush sound that immediately gets you into a romantic mood in Volume 253: Valentines is for Lovers. For more information about this album, see the Discogs webpage for it.
