    Many of those records I've had since I got into jukeboxes, those I had in my youth, are long gone, but I do still have the albums. I've also about another fifty, in a "retro" record rack, some more well known than the present selection, which are my current favourites. I've several thousand tracks on mp3, both on a hard drive and on USB sticks.
    I still buy a 45 record now and again if I hear it on the radio.

    This year I bought these.

    Sadly, Helen Reddy died two years ago





    But I've also my "indoor jukeboxes."



    and I play LPs and cassettes on the equipment, I've mostly had for fifty years.

    Riley that’s an impressive set up and record collection. Many are real favs for a lifetime . Still prefer any number of your music choices than radio today.

    I've never pigeonholed myself when it comes to music, I'll listen to any good tune, either played or sung well, from any era.

    Tonight I played the cassette I have of this pre-war (1935) album.

    This Australian trio, who model themselves on the Boswell Sisters, did them justice here in 2017.

    Then I found Stephanie Trick.

    I' was watching an old episode of Morse on ITV 3, I recorded earlier this afternoon.
    I usually skipped through the adverts, but I wasn't quick enough to avoid one by Gala Bingo.

    It surprised me that the track they used was one on a double album I bought in either 1974 or 1975.

    I've also got it on a 45rpm record in this.

    Nice tune and your gorgeous Rock-Ola juke box and it has great speakers. Don’t know the song or who sang it ? Or what Morse is in your country. Must have been a pretty popular tv show. Not like some of the stuff on now. I’d rather watch the older shows and music to tell ya the truth. You have a great save there. You should be proud to keep one in such excellent condition. A Blast from the Past… Thanks for sharing your tunes on your juke box. Really cool deal ya got there. They are hard to find in the excellent shape yours is in. Looks like you have enjoyed the music for many years .
