The first (few) vinyl records (in the 1940's) were 78s.  They were of  
very high fidelity--better than 33's because more resistant to wear.   
I still have great nostalgia for the beautiful rose-colored disks of  
Rubenstein's *Apassionata*, unavailable in any version for a long time  
but (at least in my memory) better than his later versions.
