This reminds me of something I was going to mention the other day, after seeing 
a scene in a TV show this week depicting records being spun (and scratched) in 
a disco scene. Can't remember what the show was, but one of the LPs was 
definitely a mono Cadence pressing. Wonder what Archie Bleyer was doing in a 
hip-hop environment?
