Always wanted one of those Technics or Nakamichi cassette decks

To think our generation went through almost every form of physical media until there was no more physical media.
From 8-track tapes, cassette, vinyl 33 and 45 records, CDs, MiniDisc, CDRW, floppy disk 5¼" and 3½", Zip-disk, BetaMax, VHS, laserdisc, DVD, Bluray, flash drive - now everything is streaming or downloadable.

Yuh forget 78rpm as well boss. :mrgreen:

My grandparents had a Victrola that used to play those 78's really well. Wind up handle and all.

I regret dumping my huge collection of dancehall cassettes. I used to save my school money every week to buy FPM, Def Boys. Chinese Grocery, Music 3000, Downtown outlaws, ear traffic control and I can’t rem who else.

Had a huge collection between 1995-1999, then my collection became mp3. When I bought my first car it was CD deck so cassettes just became a relic.

But those dancehall mixes were fire.

legendary DJ skills.
