Wow, this is great. WNBA player Tamika Williams, 23, collects 45's from the 50's and 60's. Check out her comments on if she prefers CD's or 45's: Moving to Her Own Beat I knew them UConn girls could play some ball. Turns out they have an attentive ear as well.
She even collects "du-wop" music!!!! "Her favorites include a lot of du-wop, such as the Drifters, Stylistics, Commodores, Temptations and Supremes, " mud-
How cool is that?.......and refresingly cool, at that! You are awright, Tamika! Keep the ball rolling.....I mean, bouncing! Bill
The younger folks I know, when they go for vinyl, tend to stick with Lp's. That she digs 45's is refreshing. Nothing quite like that little record with the big hole. ED
The sad thing is there are probably many people Tamika's age who don't even know what "a 45" is. My cousin is 19 and knows nothing about vinyl. My uncle was telling me one time how amazed she was that those things play music.
