Vinyl: The Art of Making Records
Vinyl Records - Books - by Mike Evans
(2015)
In our increasingly digital world, audiophiles know that the real
recording is on vinyl. That's why sales of vinyl continue to soar. Mike
Evans offers a sumptuous visual celebration of this medium's fascinating
history and triumphant rebirth. From weighty 78s to feisty 45s, from
eccentric EPs to legendary LPs, he brings vinyl recordings off the
shelves and out of the crates, spotlighting:
- The development of discs from shellac to vinyl
- Run-out groove messages, picture discs, limited editions, colored
vinyl, and deluxe 180g reissues that make fans and collectors rejoice
- The records' iconic packaging and art, including the work of Reid Miles, Roger Dean, Peter Saville, and Hipgnosis
- The history and development of various leading labels, such as
Atlantic, Audio Fidelity, Casablanca, Decca, Def Jam, Motown, Verve, and
more
- Groundbreaking artists and their game-changing releases,
from the first 45, Eddy Arnold's "Texarkana Baby," to the vinyl revival
as led by Jack White's Lazaretto
