The most common ones, the 10" records, plays 3 minutes, but there are slight differences between records. *************** Yep! 12-inch a little over 4 minutes. Now before the 78 speed was standard and the sizes of the records were standardized it was all over the place. There were all kinds of experiments in speed and record size to get more time on a record. But by the late teens and around 1920 the 78 speed and 10-inch or 12-inch records was standard.

Why are records dragging on your record player?

They typically drag because that's how they make sound. If it didn't dray there would be no music. If you mean that it sounds slow, that is because as stated above, it is part of the process. Better turntables have a strobe to adjust the timing, or speed of the rotation to keep it at 33 rpm or 45 rpm or 78 rpm. Which brings me to the next part of the answer. Make sure that the speed of the turntable matches the speed of the recording. Playing a 45 rpm record at 33 rpm will sound very slow and dragging. Most record players and turntables have a selector for 33 and 45 rpm. 78rpm records use a different needle, and not all players will play these older format records.
