9:30 Coffee Break: Vinyl in Song
by Steve Seel and Jill Riley
February 04, 2015
Earlier this morning, Jill and Steve were talking about the resurgence in vinyl sales over the past few years, and some recent reactions to that resurgence from a few different voices in the music business.
One major label spokesman recently told Rolling Stone that while he thinks vinyl's comeback is cool, it's such a tiny drop in the financial bucket that it's hardly going to "save" the music business. Elsewhere, Neil Young described the newfound love for vinyl little more than a passing "fashion statement."
Still, our love for vinyl here on The Morning Show is strong, and hardly a passing fad. For today's 9:30 Coffee Break, we thought we'd celebrate the beauty of the spinning black musical platter … with songs that make reference to records in some way, shape or form.
So, what songs mentioning records should we play for the 9:30 Coffee Break?
