Vinyl records marked a beautiful era. When I was a teenager, they were the latest thing in music, and we couldn't imagine that there could be another music system that could surpass them. LPs were advertised on television, and I was eager to get my hands on the latest and most requested ones on the radio. At home, I still have a complete stereo system that my parents bought, but of course, it no longer works. You could play cassettes on it, listen to the radio, and, of course, it had the star of the moment: the record player. When I couldn't buy the LP, I would borrow it and record it on a cassette tape.
I remember that my first vinyl record was by Los Hombres G, a group of young Spaniards who became very famous with the song “Devuélveme a mi chica” (Give Me Back My Girl). I remember that it was a gift from my parents for my 12th birthday and it was one of my favorite records. I was happy, it was the hit of the moment and I liked listening to the genre that was in fashion. I also remember writing my name in several places on the cover, as it was customary to lend records, and I wanted to make sure they knew who it belonged to and would give it back to me, haha. In addition to the hit “Devuélveme a mi chica,” I liked other songs, such as “Venecia,” “Te quiero,” and “Martha tiene un marcapasos.” When I was home alone, I listened to my favorite songs over and over again, so those tracks got scratched pretty quickly.
In the same pop genre, I liked the songs by the singer Karina, and my parents bought me her latest LP at the time, called Sin máscara. I loved almost all the songs on that album, such as “Desde mi ventana,” “Una reina más,” “La noche es mágica,” “Salta,” and “Lo digo de corazón.” I really liked the music of Hombres G, but my favorite vinyl record was Karina's.
My parents also had their collection of vinyl records. They are no longer with us, so I felt nostalgic when I discovered that among the records still at home were my mother's favorite, by Spanish singer Raphael, and my father's favorite, Julio Iglesias. My father used to say that he sang just like Julio and would imitate him.
I was always on the lookout for the latest LP, so when we went to the store, everyone would bring home their favorite vinyl record. In my case, since I liked dance music, my parents bought me merengue, Natusha, reggae, and many more. My parents didn't like some of that music, so when I played it, they had no choice but to listen to it, haha, and I felt the same way about their music, but we had to respect those moments and spaces.

Muchas gracias por valorar mi publicación.
Tus papás y tú tienen una muy buena colección, felicidades. A mi también me gusta la música de Rafael y de Julio Iglesias (soy de esos tiempos jeje).
Me hiciste recordar que yo también grababa las canciones en un casette, directamente de la radio o de un LP, era la mejor opción si no disponías del disco.
Siiio, teníamos esa opción del casette. Saludos.
Wow amiga que tiempos aquellos de los discos de vinil, me vinieron recuerdos de mi niñez cuando mi papá me regaló el disco de Karina jejeje y la tabla de multiplicar me la aprendí también por medio de la música con disco de vinil, mi mamá tenía muchos discos nose que los hizo, y mi suegra tiene muchos y aún los escucha.
Gracias por pensar en mi e invitarme a este estupendo concurso, saludos @hylene74 🤗
