I remember very well the 45 rpm days, when nobody had anything to say, but they said it well. These records cost 75 cents or so. IIRC. I remember walking home from the A&P with my purchase of the Markeys’ Last Night, thinking about how great a thing it was that I should be doing this, in so many thoughts. I know I was looking at the record in my hands and feeling this!
Ah, Bartelby! Ah, humanity!

For me, the first to 45s I got were “Hound Dog” and “Raunchy/” But Link Wray put me over the edge! So powerful!
