"A bit scratched and fuzzy, and difficult to handle"

Twenty years ago, few would have predicted the incredible renaissance of vinyl - the humble record seemed destined for the history books, as CDs and then MP3s took over the music industry.

A small town just outside the Czech capital Prague (Lodenice) has become the global centre of vinyl production.
