While CD sales continue to fall and music consumers go "digital", there is an audio format that has crossed all the other formats that were supposed to bring it to its demise. While we read about the resurgence of the production and sale of vinyl records (up to ten per cent of the year last), some still believe that the search for vinyl is a difficult process.

And while sellers of "brick and mortar" may be closing shop a new avenue for vinyl lovers came to the forefront, the "record shop online.

With online retailers' big box "as Music Stack, GEMM, Music Net, and even eBay for small independent merchants as vinylcollective.com, diversevinyl.com, heydj.com and many others find vinyl new and used quality has become very easy.

I spoke with Lorie Beshara operator and owner of a site web vinyl BackToVinylRecords.com little known about this phenomenon and the enjoyment she derives from not only music, but this format and history.

"I have been selling vinyl records since 2000, but I have been collecting vinyl forever," Lorie said. "I been raised in a musical family and I have a great love and appreciation for all genres of music. In fact, my mother was a singer with some of the biggest names of all time, including Ted Weems, Artie Shaw and Les Brown, among others. My father was a famous drummer (at one time He was named drummer of the year) and has also produced a band called Fuse. I still have some of my old records of the mother I can not bring myself to part with those.

Lorie, I asked if she remembered the first 45 laps it was purchased.

"Oh my God, yes, the first 45 I bought was" Surfer Girl "by the Beach Boys when I was fourteen. They were very popular and I just loved their sound, "Lorie recalls.

She held on to all his records and decided to start a business Online sales of used vinyl that has accumulated over the years from garage sales, estate sales, thrift stores and what it can find locally. But before she opened www.BackToVinylRecords.com target = "_blank"> she was looking for the best cleaning methods and classification of records.

"Some records are so dirty, but it will certainly great game once they have cleaned up a bit. So I did research depth on the best way of cleaning and grading, "said Lorie.

After trying several different methods, Lorie discovered a simple yet highly effective, clean records it has to sell.

"Each case is thoroughly cleaned with a UPI Record Cleaning machines using ionized water, which helps eliminate static electricity. It also takes out any dust, dirt, oil man and nicotine records, "said Lorie." Then I dry the record with a microfiber cloth.

We talked about the very subjective and difficult part of grading vinyl records.

"I am very, very picky about my ranking, and especially so with a rare and valuable record, detailed Lorie. "All the records that I sell are not only a professional cleaning, but I also "play grade them (for the 45's I played the next grade 'A') and I like listening to old music. I then integrate the goldmine grading standard for themselves and give the buyer a clear indication of the quality of a recording. I do note soberly and condition of the album cover (for 33 rpm) or 45 album covers rpm are also taken into account. I use Jerry Osborne "E-Guide" (which is updated in real time weekly Records Price's Rockin 'Guide) or GEMM Musicstack to Gage What a particular record May sales to be combined with the condition, I see how I am on record sales. "

Besides the website BackToVinylRecords.com, Lorie also sells records on eBay.

"Ebay is a wonderful option, you have a buyer targeted in May in search of exactly what you sell, "said Lorie. "There is also a great place to find rare recordings and undervalued. And we sell 45's from All kinds of big band, blues and country, folk, gospel, rock and everything in between. "

But Lorie and her husband also introduced a new concept with files that do not pass its stringent grading policies. They created the "Rock N Roll Beverage Coaster," a fast-selling novelty gift.

"These coasters 45s make excellent gifts and conversation pieces," said Lorie. "We take an oldie unplayable, the thick coat of gloss acrylic finish, add a cork support and their place in any bar or lounge. These documents are used, if the labels may show signs of wear and minor defects, but their charm. "

In a comedy Music Arena filled with thousands of online retailers pitching vinyl records, it is refreshing to find a mother "small & Pop" shop, where you can not find the quality used vinyl records, but having a personal service, a unique gift option and a music lover who appreciates the memories we all have our precious music format.
