My parents (via my grandparents) had a few 78s lying around. Since my little portable record player was the only thing in the house that would play 78's, I used to play this endlessly as a child- until one day I dropped one of the discs on the floor! It shattered like glass. I remember being really upset because I wouldn't be able to listen to the whole thing anymore.

IIRC, the whole thing went in the trash soon after...

To this day, I still don't have a version of this piece in my collection.
