Lp stands for 'long play'; it's a very primitive version of what CD's are today. They came in 2 kinds 33 or 78rpm. You needed a turntable to play them and they had two sides. Here's an example

I never quite felt as old as I do after reading this.

oh that's funny!

I miss the things that used to come with albums, like you could get a poster, or the album would fold open and there would be a picture of the band, that really made it special, now all you get is a CD with lettering so small you go blind trying to read it. But I'm a modern girl so I would have to say CD's.

Yeah, I agree, Jrnygrl. The 12x12 packaging is definitely missed!
