Absolutely with the top 40. Our local AM radio station would play the top 100 of the past year, I would go through the list and record the ones I liked with a portable tape recorder through the microphone at one speaker. I do believe that's where the addiction began!

The only time I tune into commercial broadcast radio these daze is a few minutes on Sunday mornings to catch rebroadcasts of 70’s Casey Kasem’s AT 40. Windows down groovin’ to the 70’s on a stock car radio is proof enough that the music matters more than the gear.

I’m 71 and I know what those are. I used them in arts and crafts in my early school days.

Glue. Laundrew, you tug at my heart strings with all this nostagia growing up in the 60's and 70's. Actually good times. I wish my kids could have grown up back then. Life was simple with lots of great music.
