Gordon Stevenson: Just For The Record Owner on the revival of vinyl records
New Zealand is experiencing a vinyl revival, a new generation getting hooked on the old-school technology. It’s not just the cities experiencing the boom, Napier’s ‘Just For The Record’ filled with customers. Gordon Stevenson, the store’s owner, told Mike Hosking that there’s very few artists that aren’t on vinyl these days. He said that vinyl sounds considerably better than digital mediums, as the conversion from analogue to digital back to analogue degrades the music, and you can lose up to 40% of the music.
