Vinyl records being popular again is very cool and not a comeback I would have ever expected. What's really interesting to me is how much better quality they are than in previous decades.
Records had been around for a century (vinyl for about 40 years) by the time they were phased out of mainstream music distribution in the late 80's. Over time, manufacturers used cheaper and thinner vinyl to the point where they were just complete and utter shit.
The ones they put out today are thicker and closer to audiophile grade than their predecessors.
Erm I have vinal records my dad gave me from the 50s
You are correct they are thin as shit though compared to the ones I buy now
