CDs arrived around the early/mid-1980s but cassettes were the biggest selling format of that decade. I remember owning new releases from 1988 on vinyl. I also remember being surprised to see new releases on vinyl in a record store in 1995. I also remember some new releases were still available on cassette as late as 1999. How many major releases between 1990-2000 were available only on CD? The new vinyl trend started sometime in the 2000s, but was there ever a time that someone who really wanted their music on vinyl could not get it in that format?
