Vinyl Lives On

YES! Vinyl is still going strong and is actually been on a steady increase for the last decade and especially these last few years as CD sales plummet. There's about a dozen legit vinyl manufacturing companies still around in the US and they've all doing well. I'm looking forward to talking to these guys and wish them much success! In the meantime watch another good video about how records are made. They only talk briefly about the process but it's still amazing to watch...if you ever get the chance to actually see it in person, DO IT!! I've only visited one plant so far but will visit more when I'm in those areas. If you have any questions about the record making process, feel free to ask me. Or, better yet, ask them!

If you live in the Cleveland area they'll even show you their plant!! Gotta Groove Records

This takes me back. I worked at PolyGram (now Universal) plant in London during the late 70's and early 80's. Being a music lover and record collector there is nothing better than seeing the actual product being created. The plant closed in the late 80's when european manufacturing was centralised and the transfer to CD took hold. Great days though - thanks for sharing this.
