Follow-up to the singles thread. I don't expect anyone here actually bought any (except as a collector.) I sure didn't but I acquired a few.* Not certain where from, possibly the two girls next door who were about six years older than me. I had Bill Haley's inferior version of Shake, Rattle, and Roll. Little Richard's Good Golly Miss Molly, which was wondrous. And Elvis's version of Rip it Up which I gave to my first girlfriend a couple of years later in a vainglorious attempt to persuade her to remove her underwear. Otherwise the only time my turntable was switched to 78 was for Just Like Gene Autry on the second Moby Grape album. So any takers...?
