Oh, and just to go into it a little more deeply. This is because there was a format war going on between record companies. Some of the record companies were selling 12 inch vinyls already but one record company, I forget which, was insisting on selling is proprietary 45 inch vinyl. This was the record company that sold five record sets in “albums“. That company was literally the Sony Betamax of its time. LOL! I think it may have been RCA.
Correction. Not 45 inch. Records the size of more modern day 45 singles, I meant, Obviously.
Ah. Got it. Thank you. Makes sense.
Thanks for this history. Fascinating.
Have to give the credit to a YouTuber called Techmoan. Tons of interesting stuff on his channel.
Works for me, I’ll have to go watch it. Haha!!
Yeah, I’m sure he had to sign away all kinds of rights and agree to rub her ass and tell her she’s wonderful or she could sue him for breach of contract. The last thing I’d want is footage of me out there loving on Oprah that would be used against me effectively forever (because after you’re dead, you don’t care). I would pass.
