#1 Vinyl just hit 25-year high in sales last year.

Sales of vinyl in 2016 reached a 25-year high as consumers young and old have once again embraced physical formats of music.

More than 3.2m LPs were sold last year, a rise of 53% on last year and the highest number since 1991 when Simply Red’s Stars was the bestselling album. This was also the first year that spending on vinyl outstripped that spent on digital downloads. The statistics, compiled by BPI, show that this is the ninth consecutive year that vinyl has grown.
