You are in an American factory during the Cold War, and with the raging Vietnam War going on, made in America was the rule, not the exception, for most goods sold in the US. Your supervisors have decided that you, and your co-workers, require music to improve productivity. This is what you are about to hear each Tuesday and Friday afternoon sometime after your lunch break, and you have returned to the factory floor to put in your final stretch of hours before being able to clock out and return to your home in the suburbs some miles away. The first song sounds like it was written by one of the newer rock groups that the teenagers at home listen to in their rooms from their AM radio sets and assorted collection of 45s. The rest of the tunes on each side of the record playing in the background are primarily familiar old standards- a pleasant reminder of days gone by.
I had the chance to find several from the 1970's (I guess) and some from Christmas. Fun stuff.
