i prefer vinyl records to any other music recording format. They have amazing sound and sometimes called a gramophone record in British English. Do you ever listen to them?
Sometimes I wonder who created the first vinyl record..
I'm not sure to be honest, but the first ones were made from shellac in the 1950s. They had a bit of a different sound

Wow i had no clue. That is crazy. is ther a person who i can say created that?
Shellac
Shellac is a resin secreted by the female lac bug, on trees in the forests of India and Thailand. It is processed and sold as dry flakes (pictured) and dissolved in alcohol to make liquid shellac, which is used as a brush-on colorant, food glaze and wood finish. Shellac functions as a tough natural primer, sanding sealant, tannin-blocker, odour-blocker, stain, and high-gloss varnish. Shellac was once used in electrical applications as it possesses good insulation qualities and
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.
