I purchased my first albums in 1974 and first stereo in 1976 - one of those Superscope compact systems (where the turntable sits on the tuner/receiver part). My parents still use that stereo in their basement. My recording system was a Panasonic portable set between the speakers to dub off air or a friends albums.
