I suspect that my memory may be less than perfect but when I was a child, I saw a movie called "Blue Gardenia" and the only thing I remember about this movie was a close up of - what I remember as - a Victor record with, (I think), a Canadian style batwing label. It has been 60 years since I saw this movie, I haven't been able to find it on a video or anything since, but that's my recollection.
In the movie 32 films about Glenn Gould or whatever it was called, there is a scene where Glenn is urging a chamber maid to listen to his latest record. What he puts on the turntable is a red labeled record. I don't think Glenn Gould ever made a red labeled record.
You often see records playing at the wrong speed - LPs on an old acoustic player playing at a 78 ish speed or 78s being played at a slower speed, 45 or 33; and many examples of an acoustic player emitting high fidelity sound.
