    Ah now that brings back memories of wistfully looking in the window of Curries as a penniless teenager:)

    A classic, right up there with the Ghettoblasters of the day.

    Slap in a cassette, hit play and get into the groove with Bobby Thurston, Tom Brown and Ronnie Laws:D

    Now your'e showing your age:D

    The classic "Check Out The Groove" was by Bobby Thurston I believe, Epic 12". Masterful cut of pure late seventies dance music:D

    Hi,

    Nice piece of kit. Might keep an eye on it. :)

    BTW the Bobby Thurston song was 'Check out the Groove' from 1980. Merlin is right, a corker from the dancefloor. :cool:

    Ah yes, nice memories of how stereos use to look from my youth too! :cool:

    Shame they don't make 'em like that anymore.

    Was almost tempted to put a bid in myself! :D

    They had the portable version of that system (as seen on Chart Busters 1983 I do believe!) in Music Man in Reading last year for 90 quid - Dolby on the tape deck and portable vinyl (stick in a record and plug in headphones = nice listening sesh on the train) - but £55 is a LOT of money for a 23 year old system - serviced or not.
