    Spotify - Free music! Found an old album I used to have on vinyl

    Anyone else here discovered Spotify yet? It is pretty neat, and just opened in Australia (www.spotify.com).

    I used to have an old Kirk Lorange album (on Vinyl) called 'No Apostrophe' which I haven't heard for years. Tried looking for it on Spotify - and there it was! If it has this obscure album, then I reckon it's got a pretty good database of songs behind it.

    It's free to listen, so not sure what the catch is. Apparently there are adverts every 10 songs, but I haven't got one yet.

    BTW - you can only listen - not download.

    Give it a go if you're looking for an old album & etc.

    Cheers
    David

    You don't Have to have a facebook login - there is another way with a "Spotify" login.

    Just listened the The Sports album: Don't Throw Stones, and Skyhooks: Living in the 70's (The first 'album' I ever bought - on Cassette)

    Am off to find Venus and Mars, by Wings, the first 12" Vinyl album I ever bought.

    "Venus And Mars"............... I remember buying that album too, probably still got it packed away somewhere

    I find you tube is very good for old music memories.

    I'll check out "Spotify " later

    I have tried to setup a Spotify account on the website, but it keeps asking for Facebook platform to be turned on. I won't have anything to do with Facebook, so how do you set up an account with Spotify?

    Cheers,

    Lionel

    https://www.spotify.com/au/login/?fo...%2Foverview%2F

    I logged in using FaceBook, as even though I never use it, I got an account in the early days, but on the login screen link above, there is a green button that says

    Log in using Spotify details
    So I presumed there was an alternate way if you don't have a FaceBook account....

    Screen dump is badly formatted when I copied it, but sort of looks like this
