A new generation discovers the wonder of playing 45 RPM singles at the 33 1⁄3 RPM album speed

Growing up I had it even better. Our piece-of-furniture-record-player (similar to something you saw on Mad Men) still played 78s as well as 33s and 45s. So I could take singles and Chipmunk them out. It got really meta when I would take my favorite BeeGees 45s of the day and amp the falsetto even higher via the 78 setting.
