Volume 229: White Album Front Half

from Spinning My Dad’s Vinyl · host Frank Vaccariello

It’s a 78 RPM Sunday. These episodes should probably more appropriately be labelled spinning my dad’s dad’s shellac.  In the old days of records coming on 10” disks with one song per side, it made collections rather large. So in order to organize them, record stores would sell large books that you can put several records in. The same you would do with photos. They came with a generic front cover and several sleeves to slip the disks into. My dad has a couple of these albums. I decided to pull out the ten record set inside a, now cream colored, album. But I only have time for ten songs. So get ready to hear the first five records in a personalized collection of 78 RPM disks in Volume 229: White Album Front Half.
