Volume 183: Six Pages of Patti on 78

Liner Notes

Let’s finish the first half of the year by turning up the speed. Let’s make it a 78 RPM Sunday.

What better voice to do that with than one who sold over 100 million records during a six-decade-long career. She topped the Hot 100 FOUR times and had several songs in the top 10 and 20 over the years. In fact, she was the top-charting female vocalist and best-selling female artist of the 1950s.

She was also an early pioneer of a specific recording technique.

So, get ready to hear the woman often introduced as the Singin’ Rage in Volume 183: Six Pages of Patti on 78.
