Volume 215: Single-Sided 78s
Welcome to a 78 RPM Sunday!
As I was flipping through my dad’s shellac collection looking for patterns to create a few 78 RPM episodes for this season, I found these 7 disks. What they had in common was their one-sidedness.
Yup. In the early days of records, they only pressed one side. And I’ll talk about why in detail a little later.
What’s most important to remember is that every one of these disks was pressed more than 110 years ago.
So, get ready to hear songs that were recorded and released with no flip side in Volume 215: Single-Sided 78s.
