Vinyl, Vacarisas, 1972

History: The 33 RPM LP was introduced in 1948
On this day in 1948, Columbia Records introduced the 33 1/3 rpm microgroove record album. In many ways this invention gave birth to the modern pop album. Of course, all kinds of albums were (and still are) released as vinyl records, but pop albums were the first to be structured around the format. The length, number, and order of songs were designed around the 22 minute per side limitation.
