From Carolina Soul Records, one of the world’s largest online record sellers, comes the definitive guide to every aspect of record collecting in the digital era.

Any music fan knows that there’s nothing like the tactile pleasure of a record. Even with access to a variety of streaming services, digital technology has paved the way for the analog revival; from multiplatinum megahits to ultra-obscure private presses, millions of records are available for purchase from all over the world. Vinyl Age is the ultimate post-internet guide to record collecting.

Written by Max Brzezinski of Carolina Soul Records, one of the world’s largest high-end record dealers, Vinyl Age combines an engaging narrative and incisive analysis to reveal the joys and explain the complexities of the contemporary vinyl scene. Brzezinski demystifies the record game and imparts the skills essential to modern record digging — how to research, find, buy, evaluate, and understand vinyl in the twenty-first century.
