"‘Women in Vinyl is a great resource to learn about different careers in vinyl from a variety of professionals working in the field. It’s clear that this community loves what they do, wants to share what they know, and support others getting into it.’ April Tucker, author, ""Finding Your Career in the Modern Audio Industry"" ‘If you are thinking about a career in the vinyl record industry, or want to learn more about the processes that go into manufacturing those records that we love, then this book is a great resource for you. Women in Vinyl showcases ground breaking women and explores how they got into this exciting field. These educational chapters and collection of interviews will be an invaluable read for those searching for insight into this field.’ Jim Eno, Spoon ‘Women in Vinyl is an essential resource for anyone desiring to work in the vinyl industry, pushing outside the stereotypical record collector to showcase role models working in the field. It also provides education around physical media, something rarely taught in traditional school settings. Anyone wishing to learn more about the inner workings of this industry will find this to be their ""go-to"" starting point!’ Rain Phoenix, Performing Artist/LaunchLeft founder ‘You’d think that I would have a pretty good understanding of how that PVC groove makes its way to the turntable. After all, I’ve had pretty close to a 24/7 relationship with it most of my life: I hotly debated matrix messages; I cut, glued and stuffed 7"" Minor Threat sleeves in my basement; I lugged countless 30 count boxes of 12 inchers. Turns out I knew very little. Thankfully, this great read not only explains everything about vinyl, it is a righteous and joyous celebration of the dedicated women who have been and will keep on mastering, cutting, pressing and delivering those sublime sonic platters!’ Lyle Preslar, Minor Threat ‘Women in Vinyl does an important service to the music industry by naming and spotlighting the stories of female professionals in the vinyl manufacturing sector. The book creates awareness as well as showing that everyone's journey in the music business is unique. A great resource and a fun read!’ Portia Sabin, President, Music Business Association"
