Bullshit, a 10" 78 is like three minutes tops
Most DJ singles were wide-grooved 12” at 45rpm; 33 1/3 for EPs with two tracks on a side.
Even the 10” releases were 45s.
There is no correlation between record size and speed, and literally no one pressed 78s for DJs because Technics 1200s don’t have a 78RPM speed
I second this!(I have a collection)
I think I could probably read your DJ knowledge posts indefinitely, loving this.
I was making a joke based on the age of the guy in the image macro. I figured Edison cylinders would be too esoteric, and besides, two minutes is way too short.
Wasn't that + radio schedules the reason why songs are still for the most parts ≈3min long?
And if we want to talk about longer songs... Alan Fitzpatrick - We Do What We Want ? As a more popular example.
Never heard of 'em. I usually think of In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida or O Superman.
