Welcome to IWETHEY!

New Creativity
What hit me most was realizing the creativity behind the process(es) of producing records then. Ingenious thought behind all that. It's as impressive to me as Strauss' creation used as the backdrop.
New Haven't had a chance to watch it yet...
but the discussion reminds me of a Rush album I've got somewhere. At the end of the last track is a flourish of some sort that is perfectly timed so that it repeats as long as the record rotates. You don't get stuff like that with CDs.

Cheers,
Scott.
(Who also remembers playing an 8-track of Boston's first album and hearing the fade out as the track ends, the "clunk-clunk" as the track changes, and the fade up as the song continues. High Fidelity!)
New 'Her Majesty's a really nice girl, but she doesn't have
a lot to say ..."
OK that was more of a Beatles-aside ... than an authentic 'end-groove'.

Believe I still have my 78 copy of Maynard Ferguson's trumpet version of All the Things You Are.
Special weird case: Mrs. Jerome Kern made Capitol (?) recall (!!) these, because she deemed Maynard's stratospheric variations to be umm, un-Kern-like.
I hung out at a local record shop in Pacific Beach; they saved me a copy before 'complying'.


(See, it's not just the Shrub Years wherein Muricans do really ditzy stuff, of the sort that makes the world wonder whether we're ever going to be ready for self-government.)
Alas, as Collector$ icon, I expect that the grooves are about shot from numerous replays on a lo-tech Webcor changer :-/

And then there was the short brave period of 78 rpm vinyl microgrooves, for earlier audio types
(that group now replaced with the audiophool genus (or sub-species)
-- the lawful physics-iggerant prey of the successful marketers of Perfection / A faux-science Fantasy.)
These rank right up there with someone's recent link to the $32M gold bathroom 'suite'.

Hey, ya can flush your money into the toilet ... as well as 'down the toilet'.
