1. Pinky & Perky slowed from 45 to 33 = two women, pitched just right. Like discovering that there is no Santa.
2. The Goons "Ying Tong Song" slowed 45 to 16 = Milligan/Sellers/Secombe, in their normal voices, again pitched just right, singing v-e-r-y slowly & carefully & deliberately. Much funnier than the original. (Which wasn't. At all.)
Conclusion: pitch-changing technology in 50s & 60s still in its infancy.

Also I played the last Go! Team single at the wrong speed for a week before I realised.

I know there are some CD decks out there with pitch control also, but they seem to be a rare breed. I wouldn't mind having one, though. In fact, the next time I have to buy a CD player, I'm making sure that it has that feature. (I've seen some Marantz and maybe Denon decks that did this. Not sure if they still make them that way.)

Sabres of Paradise -- SmokebelchLFO vs FUSE -- LoopSeefeel -- Fracture/Tied
In my defense, some of these were labelled incorrectly.

play at 33.3 +5 and it sounds amazing...way too fast as it was originally recorded (45rpm).

Ditto Chip & Dale.
More recently, Shakin' Stevens' "Green Door" at 33rpm has a pleasing bluesy swagger.

My brother collects classic Victorolas, and he left one at my mum's house several years ago. When initially cranked up, it would play very fast and then slow down. Since I didn't have any classic platters to play on it, I used this old Shriekback "Nemesis" 12" I bought for 25 cents. The playback was marvelous! Unfortunately, the heavy, blunt stylus fucked up the record. Oh well, it was only 25 cents.
