I bought 'Moving Pictures' by Rush at the same time I bought one of the first Walkmen for $229.00. Still have both the cassette and the Walkman.

Damn, now I feel old.

Damn, you are old David....you actually HAD that much money when the Walkman first came out???
I mean ..I did..I was in the Service and we all know how enriching that can be...
But what?? Were you some kind of wizard with finance???
Just Kidding David...seriously..I feel old too...but then I kinda AM..at l;east as far as that group of teen girls that walked past me today thought,...one of them whispered sumpin to the others and they almost all went ,"Ewwww"...while looking at me...heheheh

Radar Love
Anything by Mike & the Mechanics
I'll stop the world
Siouxe & The Banshees
Tainted Love, (but Skinny Puppy's version)

Umm, I'm old too. Also I couldn't afford a Walkman when they first came out. But I was working with Rick Wakeman then. Does that count?

I'm still listening regularly to: Life During Wartime, Crazy Little Thing Called Love, Another Brick in the Wall, and Hot Stuff. Why would you stop?
