Words, Words, Words

So, as you might have noticed, my usual manic rate for updating this blog has slowed this week. I blame a combination of Spring Break, home cooking and the World Baseball Classic games that are readily available on my TV (go Australia!). Hopefully, I’ll find time to write a few reviews as the week goes on and I can assure you that regular blog posts will resume on Monday.

In the meantime, I’m going to try a blog experiment. I was thinking about how I use the words “record”, “album” and “CD” interchangeably when I refer to albums that I’m reviewing. I’ve decided to try attaching concrete definitions to these three terms:

-“album”: a series of songs arranged in some order by an artist or artists
-“CD”: albums that are on the compact disc format
-“record”: albums that are on the vinyl formal, so beloved by hipsters of the world

Hopefully, I’ll be able to use these definitions in all further album reviews. However, should I find the lack of synonyms completely infuriating, I’ll switch back.
