Number One Songs From 45 RPMs

[rojo]

A teacher by the name of Hugo Keesing has put together a very interesting sound collage work. It consists of snippets of all the number one songs from 1956 to early 1990's using 45 rpm records, (the time when singles were available on 45s.) A fascinating and entertaining overview of pop music history.

Have a listen to it in these two podcasts. Might wanna get comfy; it's kinda long. But well worth it, imo. So many great songs, and some odd ones too!

A big thank you to Some Assembly Required. I thoroughly enjoy that site and their podcasts; I've found a lot of fascinating works there.
