A drama following a record executive trying to save his label.
Richie Finestra is the president of American Century records in 1970s New York during a time when new genres like punk, disco, and hip hop are emerging. In a business fueled by sex and drugs, Richie is fighting to save his company - and his soul- without destroying everyone around him.

Disappointed by this shows cancellation.... especially when they were so close to adding the Hip-Hop culture into the story line, but that's taken up by The Get Down now.

Damn... As a music fan I liked this one a lot. Especially the incorporation of real rock stars of the era into the episodes. The Bowie episode in particular was great!
I'll miss Vinyl. 😟

Really started out bad - not a single likable character in on the show, but well acted and directed. But I watched it 'til the end and that last two episodes were really interesting and made me want more. Oh well...

What the hell? this was a great show. It's not like empire , it's taking place in the early seventies. there is no rap crap type of lame music in it. the cast was great. sure the stories had violence in them , that most record companies did not have. but what the hell. it's gone now anyway.

I just saw the trailer and it looks like it might be good. And it is not a copy-cat of Empire. That pretentious show is about the rap industry (yawn).

Since it's HBO, it's guaranteed for a couple of seasons. Like the concept, and this from someone who has no desire to watch Empire.

SPOILER, COPY-CAT of EMPIRE! No thank you, cast is weak
