It's Vinyl Record Day - Take a trip down memory lane
August 12th is Vinyl Record Day (VRD). Launched in 2002 by Gary Freiberg, the annual event was established to celebrate music and the “cultural influence, records and the cover art of the vinyl records.” VRD also raises awareness on the importance of preserving vinyl records that once played such a pivotal role in American pop culture. And VRD coincides with an important day in history - Thomas Edison invented the phonograph on August 12, 1877. Before the Internet, iPods, CDs
