IAN PEEL’S LINER NOTES
In my recent Liner Notes on double-groove records, I spotlighted artists from the A-list (Kate Bush) to the Z-list (Westworld) who had adopted this bizarre format. But it seems I only just scratched the surface…
Double-groove records can play two tracks on the same section of the same side of vinyl. The pressing plant – at least the 80s-era, gimmickfixated plant – achieved this by pressing an extra, concentric groove with a different song alongside the original groove playing the main attraction.
