Gramophoned - Make your own record

in dtube •  7 years ago  (edited)


Found this amongst some old gramophone records & wondered what it was. So, of course I had to play it just to find a couple of girls chatting away. My friend saw this record and recognised it was an old record from a public recording booth.

I did a little research to find out that he was correct, it was recorded in a booth some time during the 1960's where you could make your own 3 minute record for 2'6d.

Check this site out for more info & pictures of these booth's here: http://colinville.blogspot.co.uk/2013/09/make-your-own-record-in-3-minutes.html

Do you remember these or have any of these yourself?

That's a pretty cool thing. Interesting how cultures change and how such a ground breaking idea didn't sustain itself in some way. The photo booths are still in shopping areas but they're nothing like as cool as a recording booth! :D

I wonder if there are any left still working because, I would love to have a go.
