Do You Remember Record Albums?
I have a lot of great memories of life before the age of ten. My mom was a single mother for a while, but she did a great job raising us and making us feel that all was well with the world. Some of my favorite memories were of when we would lie on the floor and watch a summer thunderstorm out the picture window in our living room, or when my mom would get out her eight track tapes or her record albums and she would dance around the room with us. I have a lot of great memories from those times, but those are two of my most treasured.
When I got into music, the record albums that my mom had were replaced by cassette tapes. You could still by vinyl then, but because cassettes were so easy to use and keep, most choose to have them instead. There were some that stuck with the record albums, but they were already on their way to obscurity by that point.
