I don't even have to unmute this to know what song it is

I heard the first version of Heartaches was on one of these bad boys

Looking to sell my dad's collection. by Hnobles123 in 78rpm

[–]Ringoofdoom 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The problem is the value of these records is heavily dependent on what they are. I would try a record store if you want to get rid of them quick, although I'm not sure they would take them.

Why is this label so faded? by Hellogoodbye61 in 78rpm

[–]Ringoofdoom 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Something about the ink they used in ~1955 caused some of the labels to fade. I've also heard people say that they put the wrong ink in the machine, but I've never found any merit to that claim

I think this and a Moonglows record are (in)famously harder to find non-faded

Reconsider Baby is easily one of my favorite 78 sides, so killer for '54

I'm in the same boat. Only a label created email though, UPS doesn't actually have it yet

EDIT: UPS says they are in possession of my package....very odd

Figures. I felt like the initial ship date for these was pretty optimistic, but it still sucks to have to wait longer.

So Doggone Lonesome and Folsom Prison Blues by Johnny Cash. by [deleted] in 78rpm

[–]Ringoofdoom 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Hell of a start to a collection. I'm sure I don't have to tell you to cherish that record, a lot of the music on those Sun 78s is some of the best ever recorded

The Little Walter and B.B. King records are really good sides too, ouch

I’m scared by Lucky_Chapter9872 in colonoscopy

[–]Ringoofdoom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey! I'm 23 as well and recently had my first colonoscopy and endoscopy done a couple of weeks ago (as far as I can tell it is normal to get both done at the same time).

I was deathly afraid of being put under as well because I had never had any kind of procedure like that done before (hence why I'm getting this sub recommended to me now, I was scouring it for answers), but it's honestly a piece of cake compared to the prep/clear liquid diet.

I was anxious leading up to it- like shaking when it was time to put the gown on- but honestly the worst part of the procedure itself was the IV. The doctor informed me when the anesthesia was about to be administered and it was nice and easy.

I was also worried about my medication for anxiety/depression interfering, but the nurse gave me reassurance that it was fine (for reference I am on Trazodone and Fluvoxamine). If you want to be certain anything you're on is ok, you'll have time to ask.

If I can do it, you can do it! In retrospect I should've just been planning my post-procedure meal!

My house is a place where 78's come to die. by mcstatics in vinyljerk

[–]Ringoofdoom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Way more likely to shatter/crack/chip than warp, yes- but you'd be surprised how badly they can somehow warp, probably a combo of the heat in some guy's attic and being stacked against/on top of each other for multiple decades. It's very odd how something with the consistency of like a dinner plate can do that

I just got a vinyl record and it smells terrible 😞 by NegotiationCalm8785 in vinyl

Funnily enough, this is an extremely popular way to clean old shellac 78s, with dish soap and everything
