Millennial record buyer beware: your grandparents bought these #topofthepops #70smusic #compilations only to discover they're soundalike cover versions. Like an unflushable turd they pop up in #charityshops to catch out and disappoint a new generation of unwary #music fans. #vinyl #recordshop

Marantz’s CD-73, this is what a high end #CDplayer looked like in 1983 and isn't it a beauty? However it came at a price, it weighed about 8kg and was made of cast iron (that's one moderately fancy road bike or two averagely proportioned cats) and cost £500 or £1600 in today's money. #Marantz
