Vinyl Records


"A gramophone record (also phonograph record, or simply record) is an analogue sound recording medium
consisting of a flat disc with an inscribed modulated spiral groove starting near the periphery and ending near the center of the
disc. Gramophone records were the primary technology used for personal music reproduction for most of the 20th century.
They replaced the phonograph cylinder in the 1900s, and although they were supplanted in popularity in the late 1980s by
digital media, they continue to be manufactured and sold.


The terms LP record (LP, 33, or 33-1/3 rpm record), 16 rpm record (16), 45 rpm record (45), and 78 rpm record (78) each refer to
specific types of gramophone records. Except for the LP, these type designations refer to their rotational speeds in revolutions per
minute (RPM). LPs, 45s, and 16s are usually made of polyvinyl chloride (PVC), and hence may be referred to as vinyl records or
simply vinyl.


A sound recording and reproduction device utilizing what were essentially disc records was described by Charles Cros of France in
1877 but never built. In 1878, Thomas Edison independently built the first working phonograph, a tinfoil cylinder machine.
He intended it to be used as a voice recording medium, typically for office dictation.


The phonograph cylinder dominated the
recorded sound market beginning in the 1880s. Lateral-cut disc records were invented by Emile Berliner in 1888 and were used
exclusively in toys until 1894, when Berliner began marketing disc records under the Berliner Gramophone label. The
Edison "Blue Amberol" cylinder was introduced in 1912, with a longer playing time of around 4 minutes (at 160 rpm) and a more
resilient playing surface than its wax predecessor, but the format was doomed due to the difficulty of reproducing recordings.
By November 1918 the patents for the manufacture of lateral-cut disc records expired, opening the field for countless companies
to produce them, causing disc records to overtake cylinders in popularity. They would dominate the market until the 1980s.
Production of Amberol cylinders ceased in the late 1920s.
