In this episode, Electronic Sound magazine founders Mark Roland and Push reveal the identity of the new synth supergroup and fill in the detail of this bold new venture, tackle some more viewer feedback, including input from the Freddie Starr fan club about the last episode’s mention of his Elvis tribute era, and wrap up by ranking their favourite Pink Floyd albums, an exercise moderately less messy than when they tried to rank Sweet singles.

It’s All About Vinyl is a podcast about records and the stories that cling to them. Each episode explores the history, culture and happy accidents behind recorded music, from spinning speeds and forgotten formats to music magazines, charts and the people who shaped how we listen.
It’s a chatty, curious look at vinyl and the analogue world around it: part music history, part trivia, part conversation. Whether you’re a serious collector, a casual listener, or someone who’s ever said “I’ve got that on vinyl”, this is a show about why records still matter – and why they always will.
