Mister Rogers Shows How to Record a Song Onto a Blank Vinyl Album Using a Handy Recording Device #MusicMonday
Is there anything more soothing than listening to Mr. Rogers teach how things work?
From JustGoodStuff on YouTube, shared by Laughing squid:
On the May 3, 1972 episode of Mister Rogers’ Neighborhood, the late and greatly missed Fred Rogers showed off a very special item called a Rek-O-Kut Disc Recorder, a handy device that made it very easy for anyone to cut a vinyl record at home.
Mister Rogers first demonstrated how to use the machine by putting a blank record album on the turntable. He then lowered the needle and spoke a simple sentence into a microphone. When he finished, he simply lifted the recording needle.
