Vinyl Record Day

August 12th is officially vinyl record day in San Luis Obispo County California. I guess it’s the “recognized” day when Thomas Edison invented the Phonograph over 100 years ago. It is also a not-for-profit organization founded in Jan. 2003 dedicated to the “Preservation of the cultural influences, the recordings and the cover art of vinyl.” They’re trying to get the day recognized nationally. This weekend they’re hosting the Ojai Festival which has a lineup of tribute bands. No hiphop though. www.vinylrecordday.org
