DINAH SHORE – Musical Orchids 1943 10" Shellac 78 rpm

 





This isn't about Dinah Shore, it's about the records. Today we call a single LP containing multiple tracks an 'album' but originally, albums were just that - albums. Taken from the photo album format, record sets like this were presented in book form with, in this case, 4 records with a song on each side making up an 'album' of 8 songs.

This 'album' is almost 80 years old but when I rev the turntable up to 78 rpm it plays well.
