Speaking of record manufacture, watch part 2a. It shows a surprisingly
candid look at how the laminated records were pressed: the actual
surface material is in pre-cut sheets, but the record core is the same
old macadam biscuit, heated up and scrape-folded just like everyone else
did.

(I'm only kidding about the biscuit being macadam. Everyone knows that
only US Decca pressed their records in that.)
