Alvin Mallette Audiodisc 78 RPM recording to Montclair State College You Cant Download Vinyl 2023-07-08 | 78 RPM Audiodisc recording of Alvin Mallette, circa late 1960s, to Montclair State College (now University). It says "Side 1" by the other side is blank. Off-camera I tried to play the end of the recording a few more times, and I put my best guess of what he said in the captions.In March 1968 he co-wrote a letter to the Montclarion, the college's newspaper, complaining about students not taking fire drills seriously:https://digitalcommons.montclair.edu/cgi/viewcontent.cgi?article=1076&context=montclarion

The other copies of this track that are online are too slow and have the left and right channels reversed. This is played at the correct speed and with the correct channel layout.

Do They Know Its PUNK ROCK Christmas? - unknown NJ rock band You Cant Download Vinyl 2022-12-26 | Unlabeled 7" 33⅓ RPM red vinyl record, recorded by an unknown New Jersey-area punk rock band, circa 1985. A cover of the Band Aid song "Do They Know It's Christmas?". (The other side contains mediocre covers of "Video Killed the Radio Star" and "Kids in America".) Maybe someone can identify them based on the names they mention during the outro.#punk #rock #vinyl
Slow vinyl: An hour in Stereoland at 16⅔ RPM You Cant Download Vinyl 2022-09-22 | One of the few 16⅔ RPM records containing stereo music: "Enjoy an Hour in Stereoland" by Will Kennedy and His Stereo Orchestra. Date unknown (early 1960s?), produced exclusively for Magnavox dealers (later changed to "for stereo dealers"). Played on a BSR Minichanger. On some tracks the audio quality is surprisingly good, but inner groove distortion is much worse than at 33⅓ RPM, and the musical performance of Mr. Kennedy's orchestra is rather staid.Side 1 - Musical Moods in Stereo0:06 Felicity1:58 I'll Take This Night3:56 My Heart's Gone Crazy5:47 Why Did It Happen?7:41 They're Yours9:22 Give Me the Night Life11:09 Day Dreams12:49 The Moon Was Blue14:33 What's Your Worry, Baby?16:20 Could There Be Someone New?18:08 Piano Nocturne19:58 Blue Days and Blue Nights21:49 Shadows in the Moonlight23:46 Little Flower25:46 April Is Springtime27:19 Sparkling Chandeliers29:20 Let's Try It Again31:02 Rare WineSide 2 - Dance Rhythms In Stereo33:02 I'm In a New World (Fox Trot)34:51 Just One More Kiss (Waltz)36:37 Gonna Dance 'Til the Break of Day (Swing)38:29 Rhumba Under the Stars (Rhumba)40:10 It's My Happiness (Fox Trot)41:43 I Still Remember Lilacs (Waltz)43:33 Swinging with Joy (Swing)45:18 Senorita (Samba)46:52 Gimme' a Ray of Sunshine (Fox Trot)48:37 A Little Bit of Heaven (Waltz)50:27 Purple Velvet Swing (Swing)52:16 Fascination Tango (Tango)54:08 Will You Love Me Tomorrow?

Oak Ridge Boys - Baby When Your Heart Breaks Down [1-minute version] You Cant Download Vinyl 2022-08-09 | Short one-minute version of the Oak Ridge Boys song "Baby When Your Heart Breaks Down" that was sent to radio stations on a promo CD in 1999.
1010 CFRB first broadcast in AM Stereo - July 30th, 1984 You Cant Download Vinyl 2022-08-09 | A recording of when 1010 CFRB in Toronto, Ontario, Canada officially began broadcasting in AM Stereo full-time, at 10:10 AM on July 30th, 1984. They previously had been testing the Magnavox AM Stereo system during overnight hours, using three prototype Sansui CX-990 multi-system AM Stereo car radios, but decided to go with the Motorola C-Quam system, which became the standard for AM Stereo broadcasting in 1988 in Canada and 1993 in the USA. This recording unfortunately was not made in stereo, and is actually from an .AU file (remember those?) that someone uploaded to the Internet many years ago. I no longer have a copy of that file, nor does it exist anymore online, but I luckily dubbed the majority of it to cassette (skipping over the commercials and most of the weather report). There is one MP3 copy of it online, but that's just an incomplete, lower-quality transfer of this cassette recording.CFRB mentioned that there were five different systems for AM Stereo, but actually only four were in use at the time (C-Quam, Kahn, Harris, and Magnavox); the fifth system, Belar, dropped out in 1982 when the FCC announced they were going to leave it up to the marketplace to decide which system would become the standard for AM Stereo broadcasting.
1600 WWRL in C-Quam AM Stereo (Sony SRF-A100) July 2000 You Cant Download Vinyl 2022-07-26 | The best-sounding AM Stereo radio station I've ever heard in person, New York City's 1600 WWRL. Recorded July 10th 2000 from a Sony SRF-A100 using an Optimus SCT-86 cassette recorder onto Sony high-bias tape. WWRL's audio bandwidth at the time exceeded the 10 kHz NRSC limit, providing FM-quality sound. Unfortunately WWRL discontinued broadcasting in stereo a few months after this was recorded, and switched to the Kahn Power-Side system, which claimed to improve a station's coverage by concentrating most of its signal onto one sideband. They discontinued using the Power-Side system in late 2012, after its creator, Leonard Kahn, passed away.

Harold Melvin & The Blue Notes - The Love I Lost [Re-Recording] You Cant Download Vinyl 2022-02-22 | Uploaded by the request of a viewer of my main channel "Phony Oldies" video. A re-recording of the #7 1973 hit, featuring particularly bad instrumentation -- is that a Roland MIDI synth doing the drums? If that wasn't bad enough, this CD was afflicted by the Loudness War to the point of audible clipping distortion.
The Chipmunks - We Wish You a Merry Christmas (Stereo LP Vinyl) You Cant Download Vinyl 2021-12-18 | Less than a minute long, which is about as much of the Chipmunks as I can take. At least it's in wide stereo!
The MSR Singers - Im Just The Other Woman (original version) You Cant Download Vinyl 2021-07-30 | As featured on WFMU's "Incorrect Music". This is the original version of the song, that accidentally had audio from the opposite direction of the tape mixed together with it. The version that was re-recorded after this mistake was noticed is already on YouTube. This is a song poem that was written by Mary Clignett.

Radio Gets Results 1997 jingle - Rare EXTENDED version! You Cant Download Vinyl 2020-11-17 | I had totally forgotten this extended one-minute version of the "Radio Gets Results" jingle had existed, until I rediscovered it on a cassette tape recording of 710 WOR from July 1997. The shorter 30-second version was very popular and is still used by some radio stations today.
Five Man Electrical Band - Signs [Wide Stereo Version with Intro] You Cant Download Vinyl 2020-11-07 | #3 Billboard hit, 1971. All extant stereo versions of this song are missing the intro and have poor channel separation. So I added the intro from the mono version and then expanded the stereo width for full separation.
100.7 WHUD - 1980s - Easy Listening music with a Touch of Class You Cant Download Vinyl 2020-04-21 | Cassette FM radio recording of 100.7 WHUD from Peekskill, NY, circa mid 1980s, with an music format mixing Easy Listening instrumentals, Adult Standards music such as Frank Sinatra, and some soft Pop/Rock music. I wish the person who recorded it wasn't so quick to cut off the DJ, as he was quite cheerful and entertaining.
Creedence Clearwater Revival - Bad Moon Rising - FULL STEREO RADIO VERSION! You Cant Download Vinyl 2020-04-01 | From the 9/24/1990 edition of New Gold On CD With Dick Bartley, a radio show issued on CD by Westwood One. This rare FULL STEREO version of the original 45 RPM single mix has double-tracked vocals and additional instrument overdubs not heard on the common nearly-mono album version. I doubt this version has ever been commercial released in digital form -- it sounds like a tape copy of a vinyl record (you can hear a little bit of surface noise at the end).
Reptar - Amanda [2015 cassette] You Cant Download Vinyl 2020-03-19 | From the 2015 album "Lurid Glow", available as digital download, CD, cassette tape, and vinyl. Played on the TASCAM CD-A580 (a.k.a. TEAC AD-850).
Incorrect Music: Anniversary/Birthday Songs (1992 Filipino mixtape) You Cant Download Vinyl 2020-02-02 | A poorly-recorded mixtape of birthday, anniversary, and wedding-themed songs, sung in English and Filipino. Side B was taped over "Selected Songs/Musics 4-92", which we can hear a little bit of at the end.
I want to know who did this version of Youre The One That I Want You Cant Download Vinyl 2020-01-26 | A bad recording of a bad cover version of "You're The One That I Want" from Grease. YouTube's Content ID thinks it's from High School Musical, which is wrong because this version of it (taken from a mid-'80s mixtape) pre-dates it by at least 20 years. All I know is that it's definitely not John and Olivia singing!
90 minutes of thoroughly mediocre electronic organ music You Cant Download Vinyl 2020-01-26 | Lots of tremolo, seemingly random expression pedal usage, and plenty of wrong notes by an unknown amateur organist, captured on a 1970s BASF Performance Series cassette tape. The only thing written on the label is "Marshalls Fla" (Florida?).

This was supposed to be a Near Mint record from Discogs You Cant Download Vinyl 2020-01-04 | I know vinyl records are visually graded, not play tested unless the seller indicates so, but this record's surface has a duller appearance than other RCA Victor LPs from the late '50s/early '60s, and sure enough it plays with constant loud crackle on both sides. Hopefully the grooves are just dirty and a good cleaning can save it.
Sanyo demo tape: Symphony No. 40 in G Minor & My Bonnie You Cant Download Vinyl 2019-10-27 | A demo tape that came with new Sanyo cassette recorders in the early 1980s. Side 1 contains two musical selections: disco-synth versions of Mozart's Symphony No. 40 and the traditional Scottish folk song "My Bonnie Lies Over the Ocean" (spelled "My Bonny" on some Sanyo tapes). Side 2 is blank, so you can make your own recordings on it.

Sergio Mendes & Brasil 66 - Fool On The Hill [Haeco-CSG removed] You Cant Download Vinyl 2019-05-27 | #6 Billboard hit, 1968. As of 2018, the official release of this song has still not yet removed the Haeco-CSG processing, causing a blurred, semi-out-of-phase stereo image. Applying a 90 degree phase shift to the right channel removes the Haeco-CSG encoding and restores the correct, original stereo image and clarity.

Easy Listening still on the radio in 1996! - 95.9 WADB Point Pleasant, NJ You Cant Download Vinyl 2018-05-22 | One of the last holdouts of the mostly-instrumental Easy Listening / Beautiful Music format, 95.9 WADB in Point Pleasant, NJ kept it on the air until late August 1996, when the station was sold to new owners and became WRAT ("95.9 The Rat") with a mainstream rock format. This series of recordings is from sometime in early 1996.
