[78-L] Marni Nixon

[Rodger Holtin 78-L]

By the same token they (78s) were easier to handle for us little kids, too. It was also true that mom n dad could get a few more years of use out of that old 78-only record player if they turned it over to junior to play his records and leave their nice new micro groove machine in relative peace. I remember comparing notes with other little boomers who had the old players. I lived it.
