[Vintage-Audio] Re Vinyl Albums Now Being Produced?

[Duane Fischer, W8DBF]

Hi All,

I was "watching" a program on the "Science Channel" last week and they 
devoted half of the program to several companies that were currently 
producing 33 1/3 rpm vinyl albums. They did not name any of the companies or 
mention any studios.

The narration did make a solid point of clearly stating that some diehard 
vinyl album fans demand music on vinyl records and not on digital CDS. 
Hence, according to this program, quite a few major Artists were releasing 
their artistic musical talents on both 33 1/3 rpm vinyl albums and digital 
CDS.

The program went into considerable detail as to how the vinyl album goes 
from a backhoe bucket scoop cradle to a precision machined, trimmed and 
microscopically scrutinized album. Fascinating!

Do any of you know who the companies are that are producing these albums and 
where I could purchase them?

Where can I get a list of Artists currently available on new vinyl?

Thank you very much.
