2022 At 78 RPM-Part 53-Part 2

And here we are, end of the line for this series. It's been a long time since we started it on the first of January this year. Appropriate that it ends on the last day of December. We squeezed in 53 weeks, plus a handful of special collections here in December. It wound up being more music than I shared out during the 2020 season when all I shared was music from old 78s. I didn't think I'd be able to find that much music, and while there is some overlap, it's mostly new stuff that I didn't share back then. It's an amazing collection of music, with stuff from over 100 years ago, right up through the golden age of Christmas music in the early 50's. I've found lots of new favorites and I hope you have as well. Big thanks to all the people who've stopped by during the year, and double thanks to the folks who left a comment or two. Before I wrap it up, I need to once again mention that I don't own any of the 78s I've shared this year. They've all been downloaded from The Internet Archive and their Great 78 Project. Give them a look when you get a chance, it's a great collection of music and I've only shared a tiny sliver of it here with you. I don't have much else to say, or I'm going to get emotional. Thanks again for stopping by!
