Yeah, but do you have any of those Angel/EMI classical discs (can't call 'em "LP") that were 12-inchers to be played at 45 rpm? Marketed as audiophile since they allegedly have better response to frequencies and dynamics at that higher rotating speed, and with the groove spaced out farther per side? This was right before CD....
