wheres the 50s music sperg when you need him
>>124185708I would think a 45 would be more common by the time this song was out. They were still putting out 78s to the end of the decade but getting less as time went along.
>>12419088878s were still more or less the norm until the mid 50s. 45s were a bit of a luxurious novelty for the first few years and didn't really catch outside of jukeboxes until the rock n roll era.
>>124190888the move to develop 45 records was accelerated by a rise in the cost of shellac after WW2. i believe this is because shellac is made from a resin secreted by a beetle native to India and it got more expensive after Indian independence in the late '40s. conversely in India itself 78 records were still commonplace into the '60s.
particularly collectable are 50s rock and roll 78s as they were rare and the sound tends to be more aggressive and punchy than it is on the 45s

So how much WAS the dog in the window?
>The song was covered by British singer Lita Roza; her version is better-known in the UK than the Page original. Roza detested the song and refused to cover it, but was finally talked into doing so. However she refused to ever perform it live.[9]
