Our Friday music night at Fraggle Towers has morphed into Vintage Night as Phils recent obsession with ye olde vinyl records continues. He has a lot of it from back in the day. Having purchased a rather natty record deck a little while ago that sat on top of the stereo looking pretty but doing nothing other than being a platform for the internet hub to stand on, he thought it was high time we made use of it. We’ve done a few albums over the past couple of weeks, but last night he went up into our loft, and brought down all the singles. Green vinyl was a thing, and picture sleeves another thing. All lost on me at the time, I didn’t get going until digital really.
Playing records is a bit like being a human iPod, on shuffle.
Except iPods don’t get hangovers the next morning. 🤣🥴
Somewhere I still have the 45rpm of Mary Martin South Pacific….Alvin and the Chipmunks….and my fave, The Monster Mash! Have fun!

I haven’t had a ‘record night’ in years! Great to see that Jam single there!
Best wishes, Pete.

He has every Jam single ever released, all in picture sleeves he says, it was his ‘quest’ back then. Blokes are weird I think.

I never saw records and stuff but everyday morning at 8 am my grandmother starts the radio and goes to the oldest station available in India and listens to old songs. I love them too. I wish I could see a real jam single.🙂✌

I’m glad something still separates us from the machines 🙂 I would happily listen to that collection, impressive that you still have them all.
Listening to the radio the other day I heard that old band tour T-shirts are all the rage now, many of them fetching hundreds if not thousands of pounds. Just thought I’d mention it if you are in ‘the loft’ 🙂

Wow, that is old school! You’ll be cracking out the old 78s next, no doubt. Or is it the 1/4 inch reel-to-reel tapes first? 😉
