It was an Elvis record, they had started making the smaller ones (forty fives) It was in the late 1950's I was 10. Didnt have it long as I left on the window sill in the sun and it went all curvy and wouldn;t play - silly me. Pat |

The first record I actually bought myself was by the Bay City Rollers, Bye Bye Baby! but my mum bought me a Buddy Holly album and and Elvis album when I got my first record player at the age of about seven, but that was because she liked them. Marie |
