Turntable fun with Audio Technica

The 1923 acoustic Victor recording of Alfred Cortot performing Weber's  "Invitation to the Waltz" seemed nearly incomprehensible at 78 rpm.  Tried it at 65 rpm.  I can hear the tune now!  Oh how the engineers compressed material "back in the day."  This was take #5, according to the matrix.
