Just a thought, I suspect that the majority of Sid's 78s are actually on vinyl.

Hello chaps. ShellacSid was considered - wish I had used that name now - any way to change?.

As for the 'vinyl' assumption, Jules, I can assure everyone that 99% of our 78's are shellac - only the late Mercury and Pye Nixa ones are plastic. The majority of our records had been bought new by my parents and grandparents.

For my daughter Liz's 78s4FR account, I rigged up a way to get the sound digitally to PC via an old Denon amp using the Magix software, and by-passing the Decca-Gram's internals - hence the good sound quality on her latter uploads, though it was interesting to see her earlier clips with all the lo-fi and hiss got the most hits!
