Photographs from the book Dust & Grooves: Adventures In Record Collecting, documenting vinyl obsessives and their treasure troves
Israel born photographer Eilon Paz spent six years interviewing over 130 vinyl enthusiasts, DJs and musicians, and documenting their record collections.
The 436 page book, Dust & Grooves, serves as an extention of Paz's music website of the same name, and features photographs and in-depth conversations with musicians such as Gilles Peterson, Kieran Hebden (Four Tet), Ahmir "Questlove" Thompson, Jonny Trunk, The Gaslamp Killer and more.
The book's first edition was financed through Kickstarter but it has just been republished by Ten Speed Press. You can buy it here.
Dust & Grooves: Adventures In Record Collecting was reviewed in The Wire 366.
