Nostalgia!!
I grew up in the Sonoran Desert (no electricity) and cut my Classical teeth on the Victor RCA Red Seal 12' 78s. We had a wind-up Victrola, and used cactus needles, as we thought the steel ones would sooner or later ruin the records.
If I remember correctly, many of the performances on the Red Seals were transferred to the very early LPs; however, some were lost due to copyright and other legal issues.
In my mind, I can still hear Caruso's voice. Unfortunately, those performances are only memories.
Yeah, Elizabeth is correct, (sob!)
