What Makes Vinyl Special (S6 E1)

Welcome to the Sounds On Vinyl brought to you by BoozeHound Entertainment.

We dive right into Season 6 with a new Guest Co-Host, Søren Genefke, who is the author of Alt Om Vinyl and an expert in all things vinyl. This season is all about the ins and outs of vinyl. This week, we start at the beginning (almost), and here's what we talked about:

• The vinyl format hasn’t changed since 1948.
• The revival of vinyl and why vinyl is so special.
• What killed vinyl (and it wasn’t the CD as many think).
• The power of the cassette tape and how it enhanced the vinyl experience.
• Brief anatomy of a vinyl record.
• All the cool info you can find in the runout.
• What changed in 1948 to give us the vinyl format we love today, and what records were made of before the change.
• Why musicians in the early day hated music in physical format and what changed the perception of vinyl.
• How the packaging evolved over the years to go beyond the music to create an experience.

Enjoy!
