Jukeboxes run on "large hole" 7" records

These records made their appearance in the 1950s, were/are played at 45 rpm and made of plastic. The previous generation of record players (and the following 33 1/3 rpm "album" records) had/have a very small central hole, and were not nearly as stable when stacked on the player's spindle. The bigger hole was more stable for stacked records and easier for the jukebox player mechanism to get on the spindle.

When I bought my first record player, they threw in two "free" 45s. For my choice, I picked a Porter Waggoner song called "It Tickles" and one called "Heartbreak Hotel". I really wanted Hungarian Rhapsody No. 2 in C# minor, but it was only available on 78s.

Nice one.

I liked the systems with a little console gadget on the tables, where you could plunk in your coins and pick songs to play without having to walk all the way over to the juke box itself.

I got my first record player for my 6th birthday in 1972.  My first two records were "A Horse with No Name" by America and "Brandy" by Looking Glass.

“A horse with no name” is the all time worst song in my book. Worse than “McArthur Park” or even anything by Joni Mitchell.

Pffft. We going to leave Dodge Ram out of this conversation? It should begin and end there.

My wife's car has auto on/off brights.  It works well for oncoming traffic, but not for cars ahead of you.  You've got to be right on top of them for it to shut off.  I am constantly telling her to turn her fucking brights off when she's following someone.

Thanks for info on records!

I had a ton and aunt had a honkytonk bar in Hutchins with the old juke box.

Never knew that but always had both size records growing up.

I just always knew I had to keep track of the plastic disc or else I was screwed. My dad and sisters always had the full size records but I would buy the singles since I was much younger and mowing money didn’t go as far!

It’s probably in the comments, but I’m sure the idiot didn’t turn off his traction control. He probably doesn’t even know what that is.

Depending on one’s mood, a man’s underware is either software or hardware. Women’s underware is in most cases malware, as it houses the undefeated champion of the world.
