(TV) Happy Birthday LP



June 21, 1948: Columbia Records first demonstrated the 33-1/3 RPM long-
playing vinyl microgroove record, later christened the "LP," as a
replacement for the 78RPM shellac record. Within a few years, the LP
became the dominant music album format for the next four decades.

(or longer, if you live here)
