The version on vinyl, or a record (the LP at 33.3 RPM). I remember when there were 45 RPM records, usually just 1 song each side, and LP records or albums, which had the Long Playing version of songs, with, sometimes, repeated choruses, etc...Earlier vinyl records had 78 RPM records also.

The 45 RPM records or vinyls sound as they were intended to sound when played at 45 revolutions per minute (at the 45 setting on a record player) while the 33 RPM records sound right at the 33 revolutions per minute speed. Then, there is the issue of size. Records that are 33 RPM are larger in diameter than 45's. Also 33's can hold more songs than 45's do. Usually, 45's have only one song on a side and were used as demo records for radio stations (yes, radio stations used to play music on records before they went to tapes and now to digital music on computers) and for releasing "singles" so that people could listen to a new band without having to pay for a whole album. 45 RPM records or vinyls are recorded at 45 revolutions per minute and are consequently played back at the same speed to achieve exact replication of the original recording. Subsequently, 33 1/3 RPMs are recorded at that speed, and played back at that speed to hear the audio as it was recorded. Generally 45s are recorded on smaller 7" disks, whereas 33 1/3s are recorded on larger, full sized 12" disks. This is not always the case, as some 12" records are recorded at 45 RPM for higher, or audiophile, sound quality.
78 rpm records, introduced in the late 19th century, were designed to provide a more durable and higher-fidelity medium for sound recording compared to earlier formats. The 78 rpm speed allowed for better sound quality and longer playtime, typically offering about three to five minutes of audio per side. Made primarily of shellac, these records were widely used until the advent of 33 1/3 rpm and 45 rpm vinyl records in the mid-20th century, which offered even better sound and convenience. Despite their decline, 78s remain significant in music history for their role in the development of popular music.
1894, even though the first records varied in rpm (from about 60-100).
some say go onger is better than rpm but some say rpm is better because it was more serious and go onger was like a kidde show
there are several speeds for vinyl records, but for common formats it is 33 rpm, 45 rpm, 78 rpm and actually 33 1/3 rpm. that's what they were called 45's because they made 45 revolutions or rounds but it's actually revolutions per minute.
