    The assembling of a phonograph cylinder is a most delicate art. One must commence with a vigorous air to seize the lady’s attention. Thereafter, proceed to a tender ballad that appeals to her heart… and at the last, insert a spirited Sousa march, that she may know you are not all solemnity and sighs.

    Those were cool! But you could only get the cheapies, no chrome or metal cassettes.

    Yeah, I mean - heh - sure, if you didn’t care about sound quality heh heh heh.

    Now some gold Maxell II Epitaxial - ho ho! Now you’re talkin’ some crisp highs, smooth midrange, and a commanding but not over-present bass! Just as Thomas Dolby intended.
