LET’S ARGUE: Vinyl Record Terminology
Are there right and wrong terms for vinyl records? I visit the comments section of my recent video “3 Things to NEVER Do If You Own Vinyl Records” to share the thoughts of others, commenting on them along the way. LET’S ARGUE is a lighthearted series of videos where I dig into the comments of one or more videos to keep the conversation going, touch on some of the points people make, and share my thoughts. It’s all about having constructive conversations about the topics we love and are passionate about: vinyl records, music, and more!

Well, terminology has certainly scared me away from collecting records. I guess I’ll have to have my wife give them all away since I can’t bear to be around them anymore.

I've heard a lot of people that get irritated about using the word vinyl vs. Records lol. I'm fairly new to this hobby as well, but I have amounted over 300 records in just 4 years lol. Also I don't know how much you cared for your Monophonics- Sounds Of Sinning LP but They're lead singer Kelly Finnigan has his sophomore LP up for pre order if your interested. Great subjects to talk about man

Actually, there are some novelty records that have multiple interlaced “grooves” that result in different outcomes when playing the record. ❤😊
