LPs were almost completely dead in the 90s. AFAIK everything new was almost 100% released on CD only. I'd guess 60s-80s as his main interest in music. It's probably easier to find new music on LP now than in the mid-late 90s.

It may be so that vinyl is bigger now than in the 90s, but I don't think it was dead by then. I think I was still buying vinyl in the early 90s at least, maybe even towards the mid 90s.

Hmmmm.....I wonder what he listens to. Maybe early prog-rock?

I peg Elliot as a Steely Dan/Donald Fagen fan.
NemesisDancer:
I love when pets resemble their owners. Hercules is basically Elliott as a cat (a big tough softy) :3
Zebediah:
There wasn’t a whole lot of new stuff coming out on vinyl in the 90s (and what there was, was mostly incredibly high-priced collector’s items), but it’s always been possible to get older stuff second-hand. In particular, Newberry Comics on Pleasant Street in Northampton has a pretty impressive collection of vintage vinyl for sale.
If we’re doing a pool, I’ll take Elliot as a Beatles fan.

Please no Tewt, tate small satyr who vocalizes only by playing his syrinx, an abomination spawned from the toddler sidekick phase that all NA cartoon series releases went through.
Bat-mite, scrappy-doo-doo, seven-zark-seven et al deserve to be the smelly sticky grimy footnote in the history of animation.
