I love this image but it drives me crazy that the “Let it Be” Beatles should be before the “Abbey Road” Beatles. I’ll happily buy a print of a corrected version!
“Let it Be” was actually recorded before (though released after) “Abbey Road.”

Ah, convergence. Those of you who know me IRL (or who just follow my tumblr) know that collecting vinyl is one of my old hobbies and that photography is one of my new ones. Well, I was spinning some records today and leafing through some of the Elvis Costello I have when my favorite album, perhaps of all time, This Year’s Model, came up. I took a look at the camera he’s posing with and immediately noticed that it is a Hasselblad—-the Holy Grail of medium format cameras! I lust after a vintage Hassy C/M 500. It’s not healthy. Anyway, it’s funny how these two interests have converged. My tastes and interests are always evolving, but ever since I listened to This Year’s Model on my dad’s turntable when I was young, I’ve been seeking that certain feel or look to each new item I buy or picture I post on tumblr. It’s nice to think that at my core, the same things appeal to me that did fifteen years ago, only now the reasons for it have grown. Costello writes great songs; I’ve always believed that, and now I can add camera-junkie to the list of why he’s one of my favorites.
