Mid/Late 50's thru late 60's. All downhill after that, especially in the major domestic labels, and much of the imports, especially in quality control.
Golden age of vinyl recordings?
I know that for a period of time recording studios used analog equipment to make records. Eventually this switched to solid state. What period of time were the best vinyl recordings made? It doesn't matter what genre of music. I just want to know what to look for. I currently listen to classic rock and blues but am open to expanding my horizons (i.e. classical or jazz). Thanks.
