Stereo Record Shorts
Description: A 45 rpm adapter (also 45 rpm record insert, 45 rpm spindle adapter, 7-inch adapter or spider, the common size of 45 RPM records) is a small plastic or metal insert that goes in the middle of a 45-rpm record so it can be played on the standard size spindle of a turntable. The adapter could be a small solid circle that fits onto the spindle (meaning only one 45 could be played at a time) or a larger adapter that fits over the entire spindle of a record changer, permitting a stack of 45s to be played. These are often referred to as 45 spindles. A few manufacturers supplied a complete change of spindle for 45s.

Description: WPLJ 95.5 FM became one of New York City’s defining rock radio stations after adopting its famous call letters and progressive rock format in 1971. Broadcasting from Manhattan, WPLJ helped shape the sound of FM radio during the '70s by introducing listeners to album-oriented rock, deeper cuts, and emerging artists that AM stations often ignored. The station’s call letters came from “White Port and Lemon Juice,” a blues song by The Four Deuces, reflecting the era’s free-form rock spirit. Over the decades, WPLJ evolved through rock, Top 40, and hot adult contemporary formats while becoming home to legendary New York radio personalities and morning shows, remaining a major presence on the city’s air waves until its final sign-off in 2019.

In 1974, it was sold to Fania Records and stopped issuing new releases in 1981; however, the label's extensive catalog continues to be reissued under the Tico Records name.
