2022 At 78 RPM-Part 12

Time to make this an even dozen shares! And because of that, I'm going to share out a dozen tracks instead of the usual ten. Well, both because it's the twelfth share and the fact that I netted over 120 tracks from this months' 78 dump at Internet Archive! Certainly not all of those were new to the archive, but the new records frequently lead me down rabbit holes to find stuff I've missed in the past, so that probably contributed a little under half the total. I even managed to track down a few Chanukah shares which are really hard to find! But none of those in the pile today, just some great sides with some great looking labels, and for some strange reason, two versions of White Christmas. By the time I noticed that, it was too late to spend the time and energy to change it, so that's the way it is. Hope you're all enjoying the shares!

No home improvements to report on lately, though I'm happy to report the old fridge is still running like a well-oiled machine, even with it's ugly barn door hinges. The new fridge money is sitting in the bank happily earning half a percent interest every year.
