We Buy George Lam's beloved white vinyl records

In the Hong Kong second-hand vinyl record market, white label / promo copy vinyl records have always been highly sought after by seasoned vinyl enthusiasts and collectors. White label records are typically non-commercial pressings produced by record companies specifically for radio DJs to preview, music critics to review, or for internal assessment before the official mass production and release of an album. Due to their extremely limited print runs, and the fact that this particular "Ai Dao Fa Shao" record includes three different remix versions that perfectly showcase the music production standards of the golden age of Cantonese pop in the 1980s, its historical significance and value as a collectible out-of-print vinyl record far exceed that of regular retail versions.

Value of vinyl

The same vinyl record released in different years not only has different disc cores, but also different record thickness, width and depth of the grooves, and order, so the sound will naturally be different.
