This is a really useful timeline from Wired magazine, where it shows the progression in music from the experiments in sound technology by Thomas Edison, the father of the gramophone, to the early 1990s and the digital multitrack systems. Obviously, since it doesn't go up until the present day, it's a tad outdated, but it is still very interesting. Music technology really came into fruition in the 1980s with the invention of the compact disc (CD), and now, with the common utilization of the mp3, music is becoming more and more accessible.
This is from Edison to email (oh, I'm so clever....)
