MR

I got my first turntable when I was 5 years old, along with it was a bunch of old 45's that my father did not want anymore. This was the first song I can actually remember listening to and I still love it to this day.

The Royal Guardsmen - Snoopy Vs. The Red Baron

I Wanna Hold Your Hand - The Beatles

Me too!! I inherited my parent's 45's and there were
too many to name, but it was MOTOWN heaven!!!

I used to even have some 78's

You're All I Need To Get By - Marvin Gaye & Tammi Terrell

This was mine... and yes I'm absolutely serious...

Mine was Low Rider by War.

I've got a whole closet full of baseball cards. Most are from the 80's. So they're not nearly as valuable as say the Mickey Mantles, Joe DiMaggios, etc. Although I do have about 100 autographed baseballs from just about every great from the 50's & 60's you can think of. I got every one of them signed in person too, so I know they're real.

The first 45 I remember playing was Top Of The World by The Carpenters.

I Can See Clearly Now..Johnny Nash..

I really am having a hard time remembering....but I think it was Hey Jude.

Is that Steve Augeri without the perm?

Sadly, it was ABBA - 'Fernando' on one side, 'Tropical Love Land' on the other. In my defence, I was three.

Mm, well, when I was growing up, in Australia ABBA was kind of like the Spice Girls were - lots of little kids loved them (I still remember my entire kindergarten singing along to them when they came on the radio) but by the time you got to six or seven, it just wasn't cool to like them, and that feeling kind of still hangs on. The guilty little secret most Aussies of my age have.

Herman's Hermits-Mrs. Brown you got a lovely daughter.
