Message-ID: <1742@stolaf.UUCP> Date: Thu, 21-Jun-84 12:34:46 EDT Article-I.D.: stolaf.1742 Posted: Thu Jun 21 12:34:46 1984 Date-Received: Fri, 22-Jun-84 07:31:16 EDT Organization: St. Olaf College, Northfield MN Lines: 14 Regarding the mysterious reason that radio stations speed up records: You know, I went to a disco roller rink once and I saw/heard the DJ do that very thing. And you know why he did it? Because that way, the second record could seque right into the first one WITHOUT CHANGING THE BEAT. 20 straight minutes of presto 4/4. I'd bet money that that is why some radio stations speed up records, too...... 70 minutes of music every hour! [ihnp4 decvax]!stolaf!neiman ===> Carleton College by dialup.
