Classic Rock Finds New Life on Vinyl
It has been widely reported that a growing subculture of gen-y music lovers have embraced the vinyl record. Many of these kids listen to modern popular music on vinyl, but a surprising number are showing a preference for the music their parents grew up on--classic rock. An ongoing poll on the music/vinyl enthusiast website, Vinyl Revinyl strongly backs this up. Alan Bayer, the owner of the website and gen-y music lover, believes that the rebellious spirit of classic rock music, coupled with vinyl record nostalgia has driven interest in that particular genre being popular with gen-y kids who listen to music on vinyl.
