Vinyl: A History Of The Analogue Record (Ashgate Popular And Folk Music Series)

This book traces the evolution of the recording format from its roots in the first sound recording experiments, to its survival in the world of digital technologies. Each chapter explores a different element: the groove, the disc shape, the label, vinyl itself, the album, the single, the b-side and the 12" single, the sleeve. By anatomising the object in this manner, the author brings a fresh perspective to each of his themes. 9781472434333 1472434331 225 Music NOT_MATURE http://books.google.com/books/content?id=-B2rBAAAQBAJ&printsec=frontcover&img=1&zoom=5&edge=curl&source=gbs_api en
