Reseña del editor

A stunning, 436-page photography-and-interview coffee-table book about the world's most fascinating and accomplished vinyl collectors created by noted photographer Eilon Paz. "[Eilon Paz's] lavishly illustrated coffee-table book contains portraits of some 130 'record diggers', as he sometimes calls them, who have often gravitated to genres as obscure as Turkish psychedelia, 'Sesame Street' albums, lounge acts, sexploitation and horror film soundtracks, '60s girl groups from France and Japan, and even colored discs ... visceral and joyous." NY Times // Eilon Paz's 436-page coffee-table book illuminates over 130 vinyl connoisseurs and their collections in the most intimate of environments their record rooms. With a foreword by the RZA, compelling photographic essays are paired with in depth interviews to illustrate what motivates record collectors to keep digging. Readers get an up close and personal look at a variety of well-known vinyl champions as well as a glimpse into the collections of world-renowned and lesser-known DJs, producers, record dealers, and everyday enthusiasts. The book is divided into two main parts: the first features 250 full-page photos framed by captions and select quotes, while the second consists of 12 full length interviews that delve deeper into collectors' personal histories and vinyl troves. Unearthing the very soul of the vinyl community, his book will appeal to a broad spectrum of readers, from die-hard record enthusiasts to fans of pop culture, sharp photography, and music history.
