The 12" did not follow until the December.

Just wanted to share this candid snap of tonight’s casual record listening, might delete later.
1950s record sleeve. It is an illustration of a man and woman listening to records. The man is in a suit, the woman in a strapless gown.

I don't know when this was recorded - it's on a 78RPM disc - on the INCA independent label from Peru that I know nothing about - it's probably 1950s but could be earlier - the big record labels were in Peru from 1911 onwards

"A dozen orcs stormed the Palantir offices in Seattle this week to apply for jobs at the surveillance tech company. Palantir's militarized AI products attracted the horde of orcs, who hoped that their history of serving the Dark Lords would land them a gig.

Unfortunately, Palantir didn't bite." 🤣
