Do you know what 45 rpm records are? Do you have any hidden away?

LOL omg of course I know what 45's are...just like I knwo what reel to reels are and 8tracks LOL...I actually miss vinyl really....I mean CDs are better quality and far more portable but I do miss records..I still ahve a stack at my moms actually...My brother has ALL of his from back in the day I beleive....

Hello. This record I hawe alot of I was working as DJ in the beging of 1980 so I think I hawe around 2000 of them but I never play them in this days only hawe them in boxes.

At least once a week after school, a few of us kids would walk into town to the local record store and I myself would by a "single" or a 45. so i have quite a collection of them and yes, still have them. A few friends have also moved in the past few years and have given me their 45 collections, so I feel blessed to have a wide range of musical tastes in the collection on the whole.

I know exactly what 45 RPM records are...I grew up playing them!! Yup, I am showing my age too! I can't believe that over the years I have gotten rid of all of my 45 RPM records. I have seen a website before where it explained how to put them in the oven on top of a bowl and put the oven on warm. The record melts and then you put it in the fridge and later when you pop it off you have a neat bowl made out of a record!

Yes, I still have my 45's and I still have my albums too (33 1/3). I wish my turntable worked. I haven't played them in a long while. So I guess we are all showing are age. So good to know I am not the only one that saved these. I still have them in the carrying case I bought years ago. They bring back memories when I just look at the titles. What a great time it would be if I could play them!

I believe they are the small records.I have some big ones from my childhood,like mickey mouse x-mas and so forth.I come across alot at yard sales that people have for sale and actually bought some for a souvenier.Its rare to find some that you mentioned.I even looked for a record player,but i never found one yet.

I now what 45 records are and I'm only 27. HMV still sells 7" and 12" singles - not just dance records but some indie/alt (and other) bands still release their singles and albums on vinyl. The NME recently gave a away a free 7" by the white stripes and they're about to do the same for Babyshambles

I have a few thousand in my basement they are from the 70's and 60's and are rock and roll i have listened to thjem but not much..

I use to buy them all the time in the 1980's when I wanted to buy just a song I would get a 45 record. Great memories I still think records are cool. I still have a few packed some where also.

Oh I sure do! We had quite a few of them growing up but unfortunately my brother gave them all away when we moved out of home.

I had plenty, ctry, until my last move. I wanted to start over fresh, so I got rid of a lot of things that I now regret. I even got rid of my stereo with the turntable. I bent over laughing at the way you started your discussion. It brought to mind just how fast things are changing.(:

Yes I have them and all the albums I ever bought or got for gifts. The first one I ever recieved was from my brother....Ricky Nelson sings for you! I still have it!

Lol, Ode to the good old days's. I remember those days! The 45's, ahhh yes. I remember it like it was last week. We saved up money to buy the newest record from our favorite groups. Back then music was a background to everything in our lives. I don't have any old 45's anymore. If I had known what the day would bring, I would of kept some for memories sake.

I have a couple of huge boxes of them tucked away in my ex mother in laws storage barn. I forget they are there but my girls have seen them when they go there to visit. Also have some old 78's from my dads collection. Some are in mint condition but some of the ones that I played alot i'm sure are not.

I know what they are. My dad used to have a ton of them. My hubby found some old ones and we put them on and listened to them one night. He still has a record player on an old tape deck thing he has.

I'm going to show my age a little here too. I do know what records are and remember playing them when I was growing up but I have no idea what you're talking about when you say there were 45's, 78's and 33's! I mean I've people use those numbers before but I never knew what they meant. I also remember 8-tracks because my mom had one in her car. She had a hard time reaching it though so she taught me how to use it...back when kids rode in the front seat without a car seat unless they were babies. My parents still have their big console stereo with the turntable 8-track and AM radio. Everything still works in it too and there is a small stash of vinyl and 8-tracks in it. My sister decided to take their more "modern" stereo that had a turntable, dual cassette and AM/FM along with all the cassettes and records that were in it.

I don't have any 45's and I had forgotten about them until you mentioned them. Brings back good memories.

I have no collection of the 45 rpm records and 78 but i have seen some of these in my early childhood. My aunt has a player (wood cased phono stereo)that she often played her collections specially during the celebration of the Holy Week.

I think it's pretty pathetic when people don't know 45's no matter how old they are. 89, 67, 30, 12... it's called a nostalgic part of history. I have a record player that still has an 8-track player in it. I love records and such. I have some myself. Most of them were my great grandmothers that her and my great grandmother had collected over the years. But they're fantastic.

i have a lot those 45's and a turn table. the records that i really liked i had it framed and now they're hanging on the walls of our farmhouse. everytime we're there the only music you can hear is that of jimi hendrix, my husbands favorite. the good old days.
