The History of Stereo Recording
Show Notes

We are 8 episodes into the show and I started thinking it would be interesting to take a quick look at the invention of Stereo as a technology and how Stereo recordings were created for mass consumption. We will see that there was a long build up and then a lot of things all came together to allow Stereo recordings to become widely and wildly adopted by people around the world.

 

What is stereo and where did it come from?

Did Thomas Edison invent it, or was it someone else?

What were a few odd and failed attempts along the way?

When was the first mass produced record created?

This episode gets you the details and insight into how Stereo Recordings were innovated, created, produced, and distributed.
