...yes, that's an LP. OF

The Beatles record must not be worth much

Not now, anyways!

They also called the Victor M a Victor III.

Please change the needles!
No need to bother;
It's only the Beatles.

Agree with the first part but the second part is fighting words!!

I tried this in the past with a cracked styrene 45 and it kind of worked, though speed regulation is bad with lower speeds on wind up phonographs.

No way! This dude has it all wrong!

THIS is how you play a Beatles record

The one playing the vinyl LP sounds better than the other playing the Parlophone 78...

I commented about destroying the vinyl record and this is what the Poster said.


I appreciate the concern but I only play vinyls on my gramophone if they are old, badly scratched and near worthless or if they are modern and still being manufactured. In this case, this old record was in poor condition when I found it in the bargain bin of a local record store. Personally I don't see the problem in having a little fun.
