[Jukebox-list] "Hold On Tight" / no dink necessary?

[Jjmscf at aol.com]

I was wondering if that could be done.I might convert my 222 to play the 
small hole 45s.I have a junker LPC480 mech that I can cannibalize for it but if I 
decide to convert any more I'll know where to get one.No switch to contend 
with on that one. I suppose on an older one like a C or an R you'd have to 
disable the the clamp switch as it would reject if the clamp was farther out.Am I 
correct in assuming this?
 
I've been afraid to try to dink the import full length version of "Light My 
Fire" by the Doors.Now I know I don't have to.I hate how they cut such a great 
song down from over 7 minutes to just over 2 minutes for the US 45.The 
instrumental part is entirely cut out.It is a little lower in volume  than a modern 
45 to get all of it on the 45.Guess they had to really edit it to get the 
volume level of the time.The trend at the time was really loud 45s.
