[78-L] Not only vinyl..now at 45RPM

[fnarf at comcast.net]

You'd be surprised what they cut in these days. They might just be mixing some phrase in with a walloping techno track. Maybe even just Julie London going "ooh" for forty five minutes. Apparently there are drugs you can take that make this tolerable.

I don't know what Rene Leibowitz sounds like, but I'm imagining something louche and loungy for the chill-out room.

You never know. In my thankfully very short DJ "career" the biggest reaction I ever got was with "Quiet Village", and also a pure cheese easy-listening version of "Georgy Girl" (sorry, can't remember the group) that made the original sound like Cannibal Corpse in comparison.

Also, the loudness of the 45 cut may be higher than the LP, more in line with the other stuff they have so they don't have to futz with the levels either.
