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
