Description

Explore the social world of music through Wax Trash and Vinyl Treasures: Record Collecting as a Social Practice. Published by Routledge as part of the Ashgate Popular and Folk Music Series, this book looks beyond the simple act of gathering sound recordings.

By looking at various formats, with a specific focus on the preference for vinyl, this work investigates the cultural importance of the hobby. This book serves as an essential resource for those interested in the history and social dimensions of music collecting. Whether you are a student of musicology or a dedicated vinyl enthusiast, this text offers a detailed look at how collecting functions as a social practice across many different musical landscapes.
