I showed her. Her response: "but mommy, how did you carry those around..they're so big!" (she only has known cd's and ipods). Believe it or not, my hubby and I still have a turntable in the basement but we can't hook it up to our new system...sigh..BUT..he DID surprise me with Keith Green's greatest hits on CD for xmas last year!!!Faithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06608258814596465122noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28854403.post-14750392845839414752008-08-11T12:40:00.000-06:002008-08-11T12:40:00.000-06:00Thank you for the info and reminder.

I also have a lot of albums and 45s and other sizes of records that my mother collected and I inherited. I think I will drag it all down stairs and have a little old time music. It sure beats the heck out of some of the stuff they call music today!<BR/>I guess by that statement you can just about guess my age.

Mostly Donny. By the time I got to Fleetwood Mac, I was into 8 tracks. I did hear that record players are making a comeback. Why, I could not say. Has to be nostalgia--the longing for scratchy pops in one's music.2nd Cup of Coffeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05478944775613602625noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28854403.post-5474939466688851772008-08-09T14:27:00.000-06:002008-08-09T14:27:00.000-06:00That one looks exactly like the last one we had. ...That one looks exactly like the last one we had. We sold it and our albums years ago. I had heard that they might be making a comeback---because people like the supposed "pure" music sound of an album. It seems so funny to actually see the industry going backwards.pamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08741559479032449072noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28854403.post-30535218315689853832008-08-09T07:49:00.000-06:002008-08-09T07:49:00.000-06:00I recognized most of those names, yikes!

We found it at Target and it looks very old-fashioned but has a turntable, radio, cassette player, and CD player. <BR/><BR/>We have one, too, though not like that.
