Decca Roy Fox 78 ‘In the Groove’ Plug-in Wall light
The Music Never Stopped — Now It Lights Your Room
Picture it on your wall: a genuine Decca 78 record, pressed in an era when analogue was king and every groove told a story, now casting a warm glow across the room. The ridges that once carried a dance band's swing now catch the light in a way no ordinary fitting ever could.
About This Record
This light is built around an original Decca 78 rpm record featuring Roy Fox and his band. Roy Fox (1901–1982) was an American-born British dance bandleader, at the peak of his popularity during the British dance band era of the 1920s and 1930s. The record is interesting, not rare — and as little work as possible has been done to it, preserving its integrity and its history.
