Ok it’s late Saturday night does anyone remember these little creatures, we all used to win them at the local fair or show when it came to town as kids, and some 40 years later I just remembered them crazy old mind!

I only recall grey ones, back in the early 1970s

Yep there the ones, so popular to hang them from the rest vision mirror in your car. And if you won one it was pretty cool to have one. So you must remember TDK blank cassettes then no iPods in them days.

We bought TDK 90-minute cassettes. Recorded a single album on each side. Stored the LPs and played cassettes in the car constantly.

Don’t forget the mixed tape road trip. That took you hours to record playing the dj at home mixing up a cassette with all your favourites. I still have all my records dont play them anymore but most definitely not getting rid of them, like everyone else did, those where the days!
