dont you love old phonograph records?
Yeah, phonographs are pretty neat! I just learned they were usually made with shellac?
Oh really I thought they were made of vinyl??
Kind of, they started being made with polyvinyl chloride in the 1950's.
HHmmm what was the first record you ever bought?
I haven't bought any myself but my dad has a ton of polyvinyl chloride phonograph records.
Oh, my first record was A The Kiss alive double record and my 2nd was Michael Jackson Off the Wall
Phonograph record
A phonograph record (also known as a gramophone record, especially in British English, or simply record) is an analog sound storage medium in the form of a flat disc with an inscribed, modulated spiral groove. The groove usually starts near the periphery and ends near the center of the disc. At first, the discs were commonly made from shellac; starting in the 1940s polyvinyl chloride became common. In recent decades, records have sometimes been called vinyl records, or simply vinyl or even vinyls.
