"A record, you get to pick it up and you look at it and you experience setting on the platter and putting the needle, the needle in the groove and having an experience and opening it up and reading the liner notes and understanding the history and all the work that went into it and the people that played on it."

STORYLINE:
United Record Pressing in Nashville has survived 8-tracks, cassettes, CDs, Napster, iPods and streaming services.
Six decades after it pressed the Beatles' first single in the U.S., the country's oldest vinyl record maker has rebounded so dramatically thanks to new generations of younger vinyl fans.
The 75-year-old company has adjusted its business from filling jukeboxes, to helping DJs spin, to stocking shelves despite a pandemic. On shelves in its warehouse are master versions by Johnny Cash, Kanye West and The Black Crowes.
