About Vintage Mono (Monaural) Vinyl Records

By definition, all records before the advent of stereo LP records about 1960 were monaural (mono), or able to output only one signal channel to speakers or headphones.

But it is the mono LP vinyl records of the 1960s that are the most collectible, as mono records continued to be issued side by side with stereo albums even into the 1970s (some people owned players that only played mono records, and some artists preferred to work in mono). Some of the harder-to-find mono albums from this era are from bands like The Beatles, Jimi Hendrix, The Doors, Elvis, and various Psych artists.
