La historia del vinilo

Vinyl Nation is such a well done documentary, great interviews, timing, music....it had everything a vinyl lover would want to see in a movie!

We loved that it included an emotional component to collecting and listening. Yet also showed pure facts in the history of the industry, as well as the production and engineering of each record.

Music and vinyl lovers unite and see this film! Kudos to everyone involved!

A warm, delightful film full of passionate people (my favorite kind). I definitely had preconceptions of what a record store person was before watching this film, but because of the people they showcased I now feel more comfortable in record stores.

Also, at a time when we can't be together talking about the things we love as much as we'd like, this movie is the next best thing.

I'd watch an entire other documentary just featuring Ashley Ford and her husband. I hope that's the sequel!

This does a brief dive into the trend of vinyl, hearing from vinyl fans and people who work behind the scenes of the production of the vinyl records. I enjoyed seeing the behind the scenes of making of the records, and what some record production businesses go through to ensure the quality is what it should be. Seeing someone going through (very throughly) listening to a vinyl for any issues, and looking for any defects to ensure the best quality is there.

What bummed me out: for a documentary that insists record collectors are more than the stereotypical white male collector .. they sure do spend a lot of time with white male collectors.

Chris and Kevin break the stereotypes of record collecting. By showcasing women and POC they show that anybody can be apart of this amazing culture.

This movie has some great information and they really do provide evidence for their thesis that vinyl is back and accessible to a mainstream and large number of individuals. However, it is just a series of people talking- none of them very interesting, filled with generic PBS style music. Including music by various artists that make us love our vinyl, and interviews with artists we know and other interesting people would have gone a long way. This was more a TV special than a film- it really didn't utilize the medium of a movie.
