    Did anyone else growing up have a vinyl record player as a kid? My dad brought his out of storage one year because it had a number of old Christmas albums. So over the Christmas holiday, I’d rotate through the entire collection, yet some of the records we’re much shorter like singles, or much older in production precision, so they came in smaller diameters and took faster feed rates. When switching back from the smaller to the larger diameters, I did forget to turn down the rotary speed, and so we’d inevitably start listening to old Christmas carols and ballards as if they were being sung by the Chipmunks.
