Tell the Truth Which Was Your First Record Player

We all gotta start somewhere. Did you inherit some old console TV/Hi-FI or maybe a Singer portable swinger. When your sister went to college did she leave behind a Box Top Record Changer ?

The question is what record player was the first one you actually began playing records on. Which way did you discover the tactile joy of spinning those 45's and LP's

And just for fun if you can remember what was the first record you bought with your OWN money. The one you choose above a Banana Split at Woolworth's for 49 cents.

45, LP or 78 the only criteria is that it be with your own money not something your parents got you.

Here is Mine.

These stories are great. Lots of wide smiles and chuckles on this side of the keyboard.

Schipo Zenith console and hinged unit What a family-I stiil listen to those records and I just went to see Kim Simmonds !

Forrestc I guess that got the hairs on your neck to stand up ! Hey Dad Dinners Ready!

Jameswei I had the same combo unit I bought it in a TV Repair Shop. I went home with Freddie and the Dreamers that day.

Uktel those Thorens are still worth their weight in Vinyl.

Desmondjim Learn to read by the 45rpm method what a school of music. Did you ever get a Jukebox? My Friends Mom was a Playboy Bunnie and she had a box in her foyer.

Photon I thought Hank Williams was Classical Music Just like Frank Zappa

Johnny B Good Davey Crocket King of the Wild Frontier aint that Ant Music ?
