Gramophone record
A gramophone record (also phonograph record, or simply record) is an analogue sound storage medium consisting of a flat disc with an inscribed modulated spiral groove starting near the periphery and ending near the center of the disc. Gramophone records were the primary medium used for commercial music reproduction for most of the 20th century. They replaced the phonograph cylinder as the most popular recording medium in the 1900s, and although they were supplanted in popularity in the late 1980s by digital media, they continue to be manufactured and sold as of 2007. Gramophone records remain the medium of choice for some audiophiles, and specialist areas such as electronica.

LP album
Long playing (LP) albums, either 10 or 12-inch , "33" rpm (actually 33.3) vinyl gramophone records, first introduced in 1948, were the primary release for recorded music for about 30 years, from the late 1950s until CDs effectively replaced them in the late 1980s. The primary competing format at this time was the audio cassette, which was gradually replacing the reel-to-reel tape. Music industry pundits and audiophiles of the era argued both for and against the audio quality of each format. Both formats were analog, as digital music recording was not technically feasible on any significant scale.
