I've been looking for a picture of the Phillips record player I had and finally found one, mine was green and cream in colour. You could only play one single and then had to flip it over to listen to the other side or put on another disc. Also the arm did not return to starting position.



After a while when I was around seven or eight I was given a Dansette record player which was to me the best thing ever. I could now put on a "stack" of singles and they would automatically play one after the other. What Hi-tech stuff was this, with the Dansette and a little portable radio I could now listen to more music than ever.

   I had this Dansette for years before updating to a newer model although the old player was eventually incorporated into what would become my first DJ console (but that's another story)
