Yes, the infamous “wall of sound” that was great for live performing and listening, but created all kinds of headaches for roadies, and also for live recording.

Vinyl warps or even MELTS if too warm. Stupid story - I once gave a record album to my girlfriend on her birthday. I sealed it inside the paper bag from the store and spray painted her name on it. Since the paint wasn’t drying fast enough, I put the package (with the record inside) under a heat lamp. As you might guess, when she opened it the vinyl was badly rippled. Confession: I got it replaced by telling the store it was damaged when first opened. But vinyl can bend even in milder conditions.
