Some younger people don't get the reference to "Don't Play B-17" in that Olivia Newton-John song.

If you know what I mean,
I don't ever want to hear
that song again...

She had such a sweet voice.

I wasn't the jukebox but just the AM radio station.   I'll never forget the time that the DJ was asked to play Crimson and Clover and from then on each dedication all evening long was Crimson and Clover played over and over for each person who called in.

Of course we all knew almost every person's voice each time they spoke to the DJ on the air.   That sort of thing made Junior High almost fun.

A friend when we were kids came to visit us on the farm and thought only bulls had horns.   We told him he was looking at a cow with horns and he wouldn't believe us.

How about, “roll down the window” too?

The Brady boys wanted a canoe :)

Lol. That’s right!

As long as he didn’t try to milk the bull by the hind teat! THAT would have been a painful experience for your friend.

I don’t miss some of the old tech, but I do miss a world where not everything beeps.

My 47 Chevy radio, use to eat up the radio tunes left and right.

Wow, I lived around the corner from there mid-‘90s! Church St Terraces apts. Wonder if they existed still.

First thing Saturday Morning was Pull all the tubes out of the Black AN White TV. Head down to the corner store and test each tube to fine the bad ones. Buy the tubes , go home , install the tubes and adjust the test screen. Had to then wait until a certain time for the stations to start broadcasting. Hope the tubes would last for the rest of the week. Had a Bendix TV 8 or 10 inch screen I think.

Ahhh, you should see my husband’s vinyl collection! We lost a good bit because of a flood some 19 years ago. We were so distraught when it happened that we pitched everything, even though the vinyl itself could’ve been cleaned up. Instead we licked our wounds, and moved on.

When our kids were old enough to go to college, we discovered a used vinyl store not far from one of the campuses. The kids had grown up listening to our old vinyl, so they were always in love with it the same way we were.

After rediscovering that vinyl was on its way back, we bought each of our kids their own turntables and sound systems. They all have built up their own collections of old and new vinyl. We also bought used albums of almost every single one of the albums we lost in the flood.

My husband is a sound system hobbyist, and he has set up speakers all throughout our home, so that we can play the vinyl and the sound is in nearly every room. It’s so wonderful!

We are happy that our now grown children (ages 29 -34) are enjoying the old analog along with the digital formats. Long live vinyl!

Wow, thank's for that: B-17 Flying Fortress comment. I thought I was the only dinosaur (66 yr's old) reading this.

My only problem, was connecting her {Olivia Newton John} to any military (whether as a member, married to, etc) what so every. I couldn't come up with anything. I'm guessing that would be a good thing. LOL!

I was at a Kingston Trip concert a few years back. One of the Trio described a jukebox this way.

For you younger members of the audience a jukebox was a really big Ipod.

Only instead of a thousand songs in your pocket, you had 40 songs at your local bar.

LOLs!
