No, LP is correct when referring to a vinyl album. Though "album" is also correct, it is really a misnomer when referring to a 33 and 3/3 LP record. Do you know what LP stands (stood) for? No "OLD" guys get to answer, just the young whippersnappers

The term Album started back in the days of 78RPM records. At that speed they could only get one song per side of a disk. So they would put out book-like "albums" of records that had up to 6 records, each in it's own sleeve (page) in the album. Very Heavy. I have a few of them.

And some of those LPs might be worth a lot of money today.
That makes me think of all the comic books I had, as a kid, that my mother threw out just before they became valuable.
Although, in collecting, condition is everything, and most of those comic books were NOT in the best condition.
OY! talk about OT. Mea Culpa, mea culpa.
