Like mapman, I have loads of ancient, oddball stuff I inherited from my parents. There's the 78rpm shellac of their marriage ceremony, which was broadcast on a radio show that did that sort of thing. I have 45 rpm comedy singles. I have a passel of LP test records, both for mono and stereophonic. One compares the sound of ancient 78's to modern HiFi, It features Toscanini recordings as the latest and greatest. Another compares 78 and mono LP recordings to recordings in that new-fangled invention Stereophonic. One of the stereo ones has London's Ceremony of the Keys that happens every night at Buckingham Palace. I have a passel of those flexible 7" records that were sometimes included in magazines.
What's the oddest thing in your music collection?
For me, it's a CD titled "Kashmir: The Symphonic Led Zeppelin".
Yes, it's Led Zeppelin songs played by The London Philharmonic Orchestra.
It's actually quite interesting, to me anyways. For a review and sampling the music, see:
So, what's the oddballs in your collections?
