I have very few CDs – it’s all on the computer, and the Music folder has more than 17,000 songs. Vinyl is the only physical music medium I think is worth keeping at this point.
I believe that the correct answer involves the music recording sales certification offering plaques with different metals for those whose singles and albums reach certain sales benchmarks. Gold, at 500,000 albums or singles, was a pretty high standard. Platnum was for 1,000,000, and Diamond (which I’d never heard of before today) was for 10,000,000.
Because the record company that had the first million selling single made a gold replica and gave it to the performer. RCA. Glenn Miller. Chattanooga Choo Choo.

I have a question. Why does she keep asking Caulfield if he has a question?

Is Caulfield actually asking WHY different fields use different lingo?

The only record I have now is a 45, Love Is All Around by The Troggs. Wonder if it’s worth anything on Ebay…

You’d think she would have learned to add “about this material” to her question…
