Finally got one

Looking over the solution I am perplexed. Category for "record" LP, PLATTER, VINYL, WAX

WTF does "WAX" have to do with record  In my entire life, I have never heard someone call a record, "wax"

I didn't either. It was my default pick.

Thanks, Tim...first time in my life I've ever heard about how records are made out of wax cylinders. At least I got something out of playing the game I rarely win...and learning anything new is a good thing I guess

Personally felt today was one of the more straightforward ones I've seen since starting doing the puzzle a couple weeks back. The first three took a minute or two. Admittedly the fourth one I would have struggled to get on my own, but thankfully all you need to do in this game is get three.

I agree with Dave. Pretty straightforward with this one. Took me less than five minutes to complete this and Wordle.

Good one today. Harder than yesterday but not unreasonably so. Enjoyed it.

I was shocked that I solved today's puzzle after using up all my mulligans before getting a single row

I had the category correct for the blue group but had only heard of one.

Also, Dave had mentioned earlier in this thread that the 4th group (whatever words are left after getting the first three) is essentially a gimme. They should add another word to the mix to force players to find the correct 4th group. Had they done that, I would have had to work harder to figure it out.
