Vinyls

By; Yahshua Hernandez

In simple words, Vinyl records are simply rotating disks that are used for storing music; these analog music storage devices feature inscribed modulated spiral grooves and are typical 12 inches, 10 inches, or 7 inches in diameter. These records were named from phonograph records, gramophone records, or records made up of a type of resin called shellac. Around the mid-2000s, when polyvinyl chloride was used to manufacture these record players, typically called turntables, phonographs or gramophones were used to play and record music on vinyl records.
