What kind of record player did you have , what was your first one you owned.i Had my brothers handed down to me about 11 yrs old, it was a orange plastic suitcase kind of thing you could put 8 singles on it and they were suppose to drop one at a time but they never did.Then when I became a teenager dad bought me a music centre,tape deck,am/fm radio and record deck, thought I was the bee's knees  |

I had the same one only mine was an oatmeal colour at the bottom and blue at the top.
My mum bought a "stereo" so I was allowed that in my bedroom. Only one of my friends go have their own record player, they used to come to mine with their records.
But my first ever memory of a record player was going in the secondhand shop with my mum and buying this record player that I can only describe as looking like a toaster. It only took singles and you pressed them down.
We then went and bought solid gold easy action, trex.
So whatever year that was out is when we got that record player

mine was in the sideboard with some nice bass and treble from the thing it had the knobs to the right side i think for volume the other side was the radio to tune in
ive actually still got a record deck but i have recorded some records to digital for friends and put them on a cd with all the cracks and crackles from the record being played
nowadays you can buy the digital record player to transfere records to digital
does anybody remember the old 8 track cartridges for the car and house systems |

My first record player was a second-hand 1960s Dansette bought from a junk shop. Bloody awful sound quality!
I still have my grandad's 1920s portable wind-up gramophone and a 3 speed Philips deck. |

Was there actually a dj or was it on autopilot???
Think I'm going off the original thread. But it was part of the radiogram. Hate to sound like a oldie but them things were built like tanks. |
