Earlier, a report in the veteran American music magazine "Billboard" caught people's attention-the sales of vinyl records in the United States reached a new high, rising from 6.1 million in 2013 to 9.2 million in 2014, while the increase in the United Kingdom was even greater. Vinyl records seem to come back to life in a year, and Elvis and Lennon are about to laugh. Does this indicate the recovery of the physical record industry?
Don't get excited. In fact, the popularity of vinyl has not much to do with the record industry. The rapid increase is actually affected by the collection market, and the proportion of vinyl in the overall music industry is even negligible.
Do you think that vinyl is rising = physical records are picking up? is wrong. CD sales are declining. Mainstream physical records include vinyl, tapes, and CDs. The increase in vinyl sales alone obviously cannot determine the recovery of the entire physical market.
According to a report by Music Week, in 2014, the UK’s music comprehensive revenue figure was 1.03 billion pounds, a decrease of 1.6% from 2013’s 1.047 billion. It can be seen that the overall trend of physical records is on the decline. Although vinyl records seem to be rising rapidly, they are only a small area of prosperity, which does not help the overall situation.
Do you think that everyone buys vinyl to get it wrong, and some people just to collect it. Why does vinyl emerge suddenly under the premise of the overall decline of physical records? In fact, this is related to the eye-catching performance of vinyl records in the collection market in recent years.
Guangzhou "Classic 33" vinyl record store owner Qin Sheng revealed that the price of vinyl records in the collection market has risen by 30%-40% in recent years. According to Qin Sheng analysis, vinyl record collectors are roughly divided into two categories. They pay too much attention to hardware and are pure vinyl collectors. The vinyl record players in the homes of such collectors may only cost a few hundred dollars. They pay more attention to the quality of records, and some only collect records of idols; and another The category is purely out of the pursuit of music texture. The audiophiles' requirements for audio have reached the point where they are critical, and a playback system of up to tens of thousands is considered idle.
Do you know how much can the most expensive vinyl in the second-hand market sell? The answer to
is: 5000~6000 RMB
The following ten vinyl records are tall albums that sell for more than 5000 RMB on the vinyl market today!

It faithfully represents the musical pleasure of Chinese audio fans in the past ten years. Tsai Qin’s extremely magnetic voice in the album can easily capture the hearts of listeners. My friend's stereo has changed for several generations, but it sounds like a cliché in "Tsai Qin Old Song". The music in
"Old Songs" is all the famous music from the 1930s to the 1950s. These songs were also performed by famous singers such as Pan Xiulan, Ye Feng, Gong Qiuxia, Zhou Xuan, etc., although they were covers, they were Tsai Qin sang it with deep affection and without a trace of dusty atmosphere. It was natural to be nice.
In fact, for people of our age, hearing these songs should be a little strange, but good songs can always spread, no matter what age.

"You&x27;re the Only One" is also called Faye Wong’s third Cantonese album in the period of Wang Jingwen. The image of a Hong Kong-style mainstream female singer was not very successful.

She is full of energy and has a good face. These years have been the best time for her to sing. At the beginning of listening to her songs, I only feel that the voice is sweet, nothing special, but listen carefully. Her singing, watching her performance, can taste a lot of flavors from the typhoon of changing the tone, dragging the voice, changing the breath, spitting words, and raising hands, just like a pot of old wine, the more delicious the more fragrant. Teresa Teng was in Japan in 1984. Her Japanese album "Repayment" stayed on the Japanese record pop charts for nearly a year, breaking the historical record of the Japanese music scene.
, the Japanese version of "Repayment", was established in 1981 by Taurus Records as the original director of the production department of Polydor Headed by Yasuhiro Igarashi, who had a very good relationship with Teresa Teng in the early years of Polydor, Yukio Sasaki joined the joint formation.

"A touch of love" is a classic of Teresa Teng's personal acting career at its peak , Is also the first record she personally participated in the planning. Unlike other albums, the twelve songs on this disc are all selected from Song Ci masterpieces. They are literary works that have been tested for thousands of years.After the generation of popular music, Teresa Teng sang it with her innate feelings, elegant, solemn, gentle, and passionate, with a Tang and Song style. It is no exaggeration to say that this is the album with the most Deng's characteristics, fully demonstrating Teresa Teng’s unparalleled talent and outstanding talent sung in love songs. The songs on the disc except for the more neutral song "Wish People Long Last" Except for singers who can sing, so far no one dares to try other songs, because any cover will become unbearable because it destroys Teresa Teng's most appropriate interpretation and unique charm.
For many years, this record has been used by audiophiles as a perfect vocal audition disc. From the perspective of sound effects, the entire disc is dominated by vocals, the soundtrack is low in volume, and the band's position is obviously behind. The cappella when "Lone on the West Tower" appeared on the stage is as real as illusion, with excellent expressiveness A sense of space, the height, posture and mouth shape of the singer seem to be vivid; the human voice is as pure as crystal, and the timbre is warm and clear; the soundtrack is also good, and the sound quality of folk music and orchestral accompaniment is smooth and shiny, and those two passages are not sick. The rhythmic clapper sound has a clear echo, so that you can almost "see" the flow of the surrounding air-even if it is played on ordinary equipment, you can feel it, which shows that the recording effect is good.

01. Civilization Tears 02. Love and heavy meaning 03. The day is good 04. Season
05. Every call 06. I have a love 07. But believe everything is fate
08. Eye of the sky 09. Is it still good now? 10. Don't promise tomorrow
The sales volume of this disc was very general, which can be said to be caused by the lack of publicity. It can also be said that the indifferent and open-minded style of the whole disc is incompatible with the music idol boom at that time. "Tears of Civilization" is Xiaofeng’s final work. The overall style is introverted and low-key, and Xiaofeng’s interpretation has also become peaceful. Her singing is not high or agitated, and it radiates absolute penetrating power in gentleness; not dull. It is not stagnant, and it has absolute infectious power and ancient meaning in the thick. This disc can be called the "sky disc" in sister Xiaofeng's vinyl. One is the "sky price": the price has risen from a hundred yuan a dozen years ago to the current 5,000 yuan, and the other is "the sky": the level of recording production represents At the peak of the Polygram period, Sister Xiaofeng’s warm and mellow voice and the texture of the instrument are perfectly combined in vinyl.

album artist: Priscilla Chan
record company: Polaroid gold
[Album track]:
01 lonely back 02 moon 03 you + me = fire
04 seven-point love three-point cheat 05 night 1z06 Phi Xing Dai Yue 07 Black Tea House 08 Floating Snow 09 Foolish Thinking
10 My Dream Your Dream 11 Come Back
"Go Back" is Priscilla Chan's eighth Cantonese album, and Priscilla Chan's comeback work, released by Poly Gold in 1992. Although I used the summer vacation to catch up during my study abroad, the standard is quite high (the sales reached triple platinum without any publicity is proof). In my opinion, this record is the same as the "Always Your Friend" released before studying abroad. These are Priscilla Chan's two best albums. The success of the
album is inseparable from PolyGram’s selection of songs. "Floating Snow", "Black Tea House" and "Come Back" are all rare high-quality masterpieces. It’s a pity that after Priscilla Chan returned from studying abroad and returned to the music scene, she almost never encountered such a good song again...
To sum up, the reason why high-priced vinyl is high is nothing more than: excellent recording production, excellent singer performance, low circulation that year . How about
, which one is your favorite?
