In Minute 19 of The Whole Shebang, Mike and Jenny talk about the rock vs. glam rivalry, dealing with musically-disapproving older siblings, the etymology of “bloody Nora,” Elton John’s first soundtrack album, and go very deep into our own record-buying experiences in the 1990s.

almost eight years agoM.I remember the long boxes although I'm over 42. Mostly I remember how hard it was to find certain artists, especially if you lived in a smaller city and had no car where you'd go to the record store and thumb through the import selection hoping against hope your favorite groups would be there. And I remember an awful lot of trying to tape stuff off the radio by actually holding up a cassette recorder TO the radio which did not make for optimal recording.

almost eight years agoA. ThurmanOh dear, I too remember the CD long boxes! Didn't have very many of them as I usually bought CDs used or vinyl (didn't have a CD player until very late either). Ah, the merry days of Eat More Records and Let The Music Play (Atlanta)...
