Vinyl revenue for records set to overtake CDs by end of 2021

Steve Harris

Available for over a year

For the first time in more than three decades, revenue from the sale of vinyl LP's is on track to overtake CD's by the end of this year. Âé¶¹Éç Radio Solent has been looking into the ever increasing popularity of vinyl in South Dorset. Records may be a bit crackly from time to time, but that's part of the charm. And while there may not be 70 million songs to listen to at the click of a button by streaming your favourite artist, the richness in sound is proving a winner across generations, with younger people also getting onboard with the vinyl revival. Laurence Herdman has taken a trip down memory lane, and asked punters "what was the first record you bought?"
