I guestimate you to be from the early to mid 70s. You look pretty young though ( says the boyish looking 40 year old ). Great to hear that you got your parents record collection.
Ah, wait. They gave them away, not to you...
epic fail
When I started buying music, around 1993, it was the start of the CD era, although I bought cassettes too and made mixtapes, recording from the radio, on my double deck radio casette player, from the early to mid 90s or so.
I also still owe a couple of dozen of movies on VHS. Unfortunately I don't have a working VCR though, these days.
