Where would Decca and Bluebird have been without the 10" single? Others of course did 10" singles, but I believe that that was the only format of Decca and Bluebird. Oh yes, there was also Capitol and I am sure others that don't instantly come to mind.

Yeah...I figured as much Phoenix..so, Ill just keep em around for if I ever come across something to play them on I suppose.
Actually had an LP that shattered in college...boy was I po'ed..it was an old 60-70's thing and I loved playing it over and over for a while there. Then, oops...splatter all over the floor. ah well.
I didnt have CD's until I bought my car-1995 which while it came with a cassette player also came with a trunk disc changer...I remember saying..dang..now Ive got to go the CD route.

I just read something I wrote years ago, which I had forgotten all about!

Damn, I wrote good. Shocked Wink

I read that in the days of shellac records, when the material was scarce, old unwanted records (in pieces, maybe) could be returned and the material re-used to press new recordings.

During WWII shellac was so hard to get that even in the USA there were strict limits or record releases, often new records could only be pressed from people bringing in their old records - which is why it's so hard to get recordings from 1942-1947, both released discs and recordings of radio shows.

In my own collection i have much higher numbers of tracks recorded in the late 1930s than I do from 1943 until it starts to pick up again in 1948. Over the rest of the collection it's pretty much a normal distribution.
