People have been doing strange things with vinyl for many years. If you play them backwards you hear satanic verses, and if you play them at the wrong speed then, well, just watch the video.
This is Jolene by Dolly Parton played at 33 RPM (Revolutions Per Minute). It’s meant to be played at 45 RPM, but it turns out Dolly sounds better slowed down!
Playing Jolene at a slower speed turns Dolly Parton from a country and western singer into a soulful songstress similar to Nina Simone. Which is… better, in all honesty.
I could listen to a whole album of material that sounds like this, so whoever owns the rights to Dolly’s songs should release a slowed-down version of her greatest hits and watch the money roll in.
