Remember the first time your parents or siblings showed you how to work the record player?

I couldn't find an episode of 'Kids React to a Record-Player'.
I do have a vintage 1963 battery-operated Channel-Master 'Compact Disc' player, made in Western Germany. It plays 45's - in any position!

Happy Motoring, Mark

I still have a pristine Radio Shack dual cassette unit in the equipment rack. It did a great job copying tapes back in the day.

Wonder if it's collectible?

No. It was cassettes for me. :)

I was born in 1995 and used not only floppy disks and cassettes in elementary school, but also used a record player that the school had as a teacher resource (like projectors or TV carts) in 3rd grade. Might make me sound like a hipster but nearly all of the music I own is LPs, all more so of the classical, opera, orchestral genres though.

I still do most of my audio recording with cassettes. Except when I'm feeling really retro and fire-up one of my old open-reel machines.
The few vehicles I've owned (used of course) that came with CD-radios, the CD player either was already dead, or died within a few months.
Last year I yanked the dud, PO-installed Blaupunkt CD-radio out of my '84 TD and replaced it with an older Blaupunkt cassette-radio that still works perfectly.

Happy Motoring, Mark

Sorry fellas, but here's another reminder of the relentless passage of time.

The second installment of the Indiana Jones series, "The Temple of Doom" was released thirty years ago on May 23, 1984.

Ah, dessert! Chilled monkey brains.

The same year as my 300TD. I just watched that movie again last week.
The banquet scene was a riot!
