My mum loved this record, Duncan
She would play it endlessly on the old mono record player.
Yeah amazing music listening transformation.To think, in our lifetime we went from mono to Dolby Atmos!
Thinking of this, my grandparents went from the horse and cart to a man on the moon!To think, in our lifetime we went from mono to Dolby Atmos!
I don't know if anyone mentioned this one before, but there was this horrible song they played on the radio that went something like "My name is Lisa, not Judy" (or Judy, not Lisa), I forget, but everytime that thing came on it was an instant station change. It had to be late '60s, early '70s

Referencing dogs, Dogpool is coolSo, what would be the worst radio / streamed single ever recorded in Dolby Atmos? I can't think of any because I don't listen to recent music, but I'm sure someone here can come up with a real dog. (My apologies to the wonderful doggies in the Pet and Critter thread for use of that term.)
Thread drift alert...
To think, if you were born after 1947, you have never seen the Arizona (nee St. Louis, nee Chicago) Cardinals win an NFL Championship or a Super Bowl. For whatever reason, I find that to be more amazing than going from mono to Dolby Atmos.
Even though my Cleveland Browns were whooping ass and winning titles in the 40s and 50s as part of the All-American Football Conference and then the NFL, they have not won a title since 1964! Hoping the sixty-year drought ends soon. My sympathies to the football Cardinals fans as well. 77 years is like forever in sports. Don’t get me started on the Guardians/Indians in the MLB, although they look pretty great so far this year!So, what would be the worst radio / streamed single ever recorded in Dolby Atmos?

I remember when those “hi-fi” 33-1/3rpm records first came out. We didn’t get one right away.To think, in our lifetime we went from mono to Dolby Atmos!
And how can we ever forget: “mono reprocessed for stereo”? The forerunner of double stereo.I remember when those “hi-fi” 33-1/3rpm records first came out. We didn’t get one right away.
I had a handful of 78s when I was little, but they were given away one time we moved.
My dad built a hi-fi in 1962 or so. The tuner was Harmon Kardon, and it had a strange combination of “stereo” modes, although there was only one speaker and amplifier. Stereo didn’t happen for me until I started buying gear in the Army - 1968.

So, you could have been “Sonic Wiz”,@ as opposed to being @Sonik Wiz!I remember first seeing LPs in the mid-to-late fifties and they looked weird to me since before that, I had only had Little Golden Records, 10 and 12 inch 78s and 45s. It just looked strange that a side was divided into "bands".
Of course, they became much more familiar looking when my parents started buying them. Our first stereo was a Sonic brand portable my dad bought in 1961. I still have the first two LPs , on Columbia, he also bought when he bought that stereo - "Freedomland" and "Bottoms up" by George Roberts who's instrument was a bass trombone. Magical days.
I have a couple thousand LPs these days.

I believe the first record I ever purchased was "Love You So" by Ron Holden. I got him to autograph it in the late '90s. I understand he passed away a few years after that, although the last time I read his wiki entry, it was cited as a rumor.I remember first seeing LPs in the mid-to-late fifties and they looked weird to me since before that, I had only had Little Golden Records, 10 and 12 inch 78s and 45s.

This kind of stereo was provided in receivers made before the FCC approved the Zenith-GE system of stereo broadcast.And how can we ever forget: “mono reprocessed for stereo”? The forerunner of double stereo.
