Record sales spin higher than ever in music boom

CBS Records president Yetnikoff says manufacturing materials are in short supply as demand grows across classical, jazz, middle-of-the-road, blues, country, and comedy records. He predicts CBS alone will gross 1.7 billion by 1980, noting popular music is no longer counterculture. The piece traces the rise since the 1950s and contrasts past revolutions with the current steady expansion.
