Until I was about six years old, 78s were all I'd ever heard. The only thing we had to play records on in our house (this was in the third quarter of the 1960s) was a wind-up gramophone (phonograph). It was only when my elder brother gave us his old Emisonic when he 'upgraded' in about 1968 that I heard vinyl. He also passed on a number of his singles from the late 50/early 60s, all of which I still have.
