[78-L] Turnover instructions

[Tyrone Settlemier]

David covered it pretty well, but when I was six years old, my dentist(!) 
gave me some Little Golden 6" 78rpm discs (this was the mid 1970s).  Many of 
these were missing the labels.  Of note is what I now know to be #6, Circus 
Time, side 1 is Big Top and side 2 is Sideshows.  Both sides tell you to 
"turn the record over".  It just drove me nuts because, not having the 
labels, I could never figure out which was side 1 vs. side 2.  Was I 
supposed to listen to the sideshows first, or the main attraction?  I guess 
it was the inner discographer screaming to be let out, and now, as a result 
of this incredible emotional trauma inficted on me by yellow polystyrene, I 
now spend way too much time collecting arcane data related to recorded sound 
so that others do not have to suffer the same fate.

And this posting proves it's way past my bedtime.
