Oh--I thought CDs were considered albums. "Record album" got shortened to "record", at least where I live. Though there certainly are many kinds of records, if we said, "I'm going to buy a record" it was understood that it was a circle of vinyl that plays usually music when put on a record player. Speaking of which--it occurred to me yesterday that it would be a nice thing to buy Mozart's Requiem on CD. (My cell phone rang during choir practice; I have it set to ring Dies Irae. Instrumental only, but.)
