Robbk Posted October 18, 2016 Share Posted October 18, 2016 Almost all records were thicker during the '50s (especially early '50s, than they were later. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Sjclement Posted October 18, 2016 Share Posted October 18, 2016 I was pondering this the other day used to have a Natural Four ITYWM on ABC which was very thick compared to a Len Barry I Struck it Rich (pink DECCA demo) which was very thin. Dave Love Colalined Baby is another one (thick) Funny its only the vinly pressings that show this the styrene ones seem to be a consistent thickness.

The Natural Four ITYWM on ABC is only styrene not vinyl, unless I'm unaware of that ? Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Spook Posted October 18, 2016 Share Posted October 18, 2016 Thinnest I can recall is A C REED - My Baby's Been Cheating - Cool I sold it some 14 years ago so I can't check it but I do remember is was very very flexible. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Not true, I Don't have the disc anymore but it was definitely vinyl, all the Impressions' singles and others including Rosey Grier from that period 1968-1970 are on vinyl.

Some of those majors as ABC, had runs of some specific numbers pressed in either this or that pressing plant only and then some never on styrene or the other way around accordingly...
