Howdy, I've become interested in vinyl players in the past three months ...
of course this is because of my newly purchased vinyl player, the newest
one can get, so I suppose the best, I didn't even think one could buy a
newly made one anymore.

In any case, I was wondering, about past recordings that were recorded
specifically for vinyl distribution.  As far as I know, and I don't know
much about this sort of thing, each side can hold about 25 minutes of audio
at the very maximum.  This must pose some sort of a problem for recordings
of works by Mahler, Bruckner, etc.  ...  in that you could not fit the
whole movement on a single side.  Would conductors in some cases have
to play a passage faster to be able to fit one movement on a side?

I can't see someone wanting to change sides in the middle of a movement
.......

I'm sure this question has been answered before, but I wasn't listening:P
