"Man"/"Woman" by Rosie Clooney and Jose Ferrer (one side each) has a turnover 
instruction at the end of each side, enabling you to keep flipping the disc 
forever or until you fling it against the wall.

"Turkish Delight" (Ray Noble) promises "plenty more wives on the other side"

Victor Borge's "Lesson in Composition"

Willie Howard: French Taught in a Hurry (And now, ladies and gentlemen, please 
turn me over)

Most kids albums from the 40s
