1. Today I bought my first vinyls:
    7” with or without you
    7” pride
    12” under a blood red sky

    I already listened to the singles on the jukebox: really amazing, sounds old, but yet so great to hear! First gave a listen to ‘with or without you’: in the beginning Bono had a very low voice and the song was played so slow, but that’s because the jukebox had to warm up after a while everything was normal. Although there’s something really strange with the B-side. I gave a listen to ‘luminous times’ and ‘walk to the water’ (I have to admit I never heard this songs before, so I didn’t know what to except), but this is the least I expected: I heard the voice of a woman! I thought I chose the wrong song so I tried again, but the woman’s voice came back I went on the internet to hear the actual song: everything was the same, except that I heard Bono’s voice instead of a woman. I noticed that these songs, played on the jukebox, are in way higher keys then the ones I hear on youtube, Bono's voice is transformed so much that I didn't recognised him. It's just strange that the other side (with or wihout you) doesn't seem to have this problem.
  2. Were you playing them at 45 or 33 rpms? Might have to do with it. Singles are usually designed to be played at 45, but maybe that b-sides are in 33... Try it (when playing a 33 vynil at 45, you notice a increase in the song speed, and a higher tone too). If you didn't know the songs, you probably didn't notice it, but try them at 33 rpms

    I was playing them at 45. But I took a close look to it and I see now that you have to play the B-side at 33 Strange that you have to play one side at 45 and the other at 33. Who invented that??

    Anyway, thanks for the advice, gonna try it tomorrow!
  4. Both B-sides are probably longer than the 7 minutes (7') allowed at 45rpm
