Dominik Bartmanski and Ian Woodward study the vinyl record as a social and cultural phenomenon in the digital age. Collectors are one part of the picture. It is an academic text, written for readers interested in the material culture of music, and its tone and pace differ from the other books in this category. We list it for readers who want to understand why vinyl came back, not for those looking for a practical guide.
A presentation, not a review: we haven't read this book yet.
