Never heard either of them... but at least I know who Diana Ross is.

True dat!

[Cozmo D]

Heheh... many of you probably have never owned a turntable. Just think, I grew up in the days when most radios only had AM, an "unbreakable" record would smash into pieces if you dropped it, and most "hi-fi" record players were mono. Y'all have no idea how good you have it. :D

[syxxpm]

cant forget 8 tracks and 78's......or when singles only came out on vinyl....

I liked 8-tracks! The sound was pretty good (at least, I thought so at the time), and they were hard for my friends to destroy.
The thing I loved about vinyl singles were B-sides!
They hardly ever do B-sides anymore; just remixes.

I remember playing the shit out of The Police, Van Halen's "1984", Bread, Neil Diamond, etc., etc. on my turntables. I could locate any section of any Police song by site and could drop the needle on it with 98% accuracy.

Remember those big ass wooden box stereos that were (I guess) meant to look like a piece of furniture?

[Cozmo D]

8-Tracks didn't come along until I was almost a teenager. Before that the only choice you had for albums was vinyl or reel-to-reel. :D

Consoles. Everybody had one.:)

[Wheeljak]

Consoles. Everybody had one.:)Naw, my dad had components. He was stylin'.
Solid state receiver (complete with <gasp> dual cassette tape recorder), turntable, equalizer, reel-to-reel. He still has the receiver; that baby is still breathing, and it sounds great, too!

Solid state receiver with a dual cassette recorder? That's the '80s son, not the '60s!:haha:

Ahh, not so, my friend. This is his setup from 1974, before my parents split up.
He was quite well-to-do, and wanted a state-of-the-art sound system.

[Cozmo D]

Ahh, not so, my friend. This is his setup from 1974, before my parents split up.
Solid state sure, but I don't remember ever seeing a dual cassette recorder until the '80s. Regardless, it still ain't the '60s, which is when I was talking about. Yes you had component sets then, but they were extremely rare and expensive. My cousin in Panama had the first one I had ever seen, complete with reel to reel. He worked for the CIA.:haha:

[The_Kay_Dee]

Kiss and say goodbye
The Manhattans:clap:

[Harmeister]

Coz thats not a bad thing.. I wish I was there when those songs were hits..sure beats recalling the days when 50 cent was #1 :rolleyes:

it's unfortunate that my son's birthday (april 11, 2003) coinsides with In da Club being number one...

Or my youngest who has Gold Digga from kanye west (Nov 3, 2005)

My other two at least got stuff from Santana and Aerosmith
