ep's are not really singles,

a little bigger/longer than a single.

There are a few strange laws around. I don't think a single
in the UK is allowed to have more than 4 tracks by law.
That's why you'll often see a 5th hidden track on singles.

uk singles can only have three tracks or less if they are
going to be eligible for the uk chart....

zeus: 33 and 45 are the two different speeds that records
can play at - 33 and 45 rpm (revs per minute).

generally, lps (12") play at 33 and singles (7" mostly, but
some 12"s) play at 45. these can differ though, cos you get
7"s that play at 33.
