How to Build Your Own Record Pressing Plant: The True Story of Press On Vinyl

How did a foyboatman and a former alarm fitter come to open one of the UK's first and biggest record pressing plants in decades?

In this warts-and-all tale of resilience, creativity and community, Steve Spithray takes us behind the scenes of the first year in the life of Press On Vinyl.
