United Record Pressing - Largest Vinyl Manufacturer in U.S.

Take a brief tour of United Record Pressing plant in Nashville, Tennessee where (former) company President, Cris Ashworth, explains how "music gets put onto a round piece of plastic."

@GTJager Search YouTube for "United Record Pressing" to find many videos on how vinyl is made. They make colored vinyl but no picture discs (at this time). Visit their site for more videos and info and contact info if you are interested in a job: urpressing

They were printing something by Queens of the Stone, either Era Vulgaris or one of its singles?

@johneymute You can't really play it because the groove is turned from a V carved into the surface to a V sticking out of the surface. You'd need some kind of stylus with a V notch in it to ride on top.

I understand tape recording and CD, but I had never understood how records work on a turn table. I own over 3000 albums in my collection as I still keep collecting.

I think records sound better! Any way that I could get a job at this plant?
