Mr. Kuruvilla on Jeevan TV Tonight

Special offer on stereo packages & bundles.
It was broadcast a second time at 10'o clock news. Hopefully, they will show it again at 1 PM ,4 PM and & 7PM. I am fairly happy with their coverage. I hope forum members can view it online if possible.
 
Congrats Kuruvillajacob ! Has anyone recorded from live streaming link ? It would be easy to record and upload on youtube. Would be permanent archive too.
Regards
 
Congratulations Mr.Kuruvilla for featuring in Jeeva TV.We being in Chennai do not receive this channel and I am sure the viewers would have taken a renewed interest in vinyl records and turntables.If I happen to visit your place I would like to call on you.

Dear Sir,
You are most welcome to come to my vinyl jungle.

Great piece Mr.Kuruvilla. Hope many have got inspired back in Kerala. There is an amazing change in awareness levels about turntables with the modern generation. They now recognize what a turntable is. I recall the day when my wife saw my turntable spinning vinyl for the very first time. She stood put on the spot and stared at it as though she was looking at an alien spaceship which has just arrived from outer space :) The times have changed for the better.

On another note, there's an interview with vinyl collector and dealer, Lakhwant Singh (New Delhi) on youtube, wherein he talks about his passion (from childhood) for collecting vinyl and about his turntable collection. Interesting, but a point to note that he is more of a commercial person than a pure enthusiast. Also most of the equipment which he has is not maintained properly (mostly hoarded equipment).

the strange thing is we (not me! i was just an infant then perhaps) strongly felt the downfall of vinyl in the late 80s-early 90s..however we never realized the comeback..it just started seeping in slowly and then one day suddenly we realise : wow! people are buying vinyl again! I think that's they key thing..this 'fashion' din't come back in a flash and i think that decides the longevity of a 'fashion'.
 
Unfortunately, Jeevan TV people are not able to provide the full footage. Some other local channel guys want to do a full coverage in more detail. I will insist that I be given a copy of their take . That would give a more extensive coverage than Jeevan TV. They wanted to come yesterday itself but I've asked them to come next week. Hopefully, that will be something I am looking forward to as they said they can upload it on their website also. Maybe I can ask them to take it in English or with subtitles in English.

Here's the Lakhwant Singh video for those who haven't seen it:

yes indeed, i've also heard that most of the equipment which he sells are refurbished with an assortment of salvaged (and non-OEM/direct replacement) parts. The photo of his Garrard 301 is a testimony to this :)
