Does anyone out there have any firsthand knowledge of how extensively 16
2/3 rpm was used on 12" vinyl for music (as opposed to spoken word)? I have
in front of me 2 VOX XL series records, each of which contains 4 full
length romantic concerti (one has liner notes claiming "1 hour 48 minutes
40 seconds of music").

Any comments or info would be appreciated.
