Ok, who remembers Flexidiscs & magazine records?
*Replace those old scratchy 78’s with The Swing Era set by Time Life Music
*Play for a chance to win a trip to the 1990 Grammys!
*Play for a chance to win $1M (in 1988 $$)!!
Well I lost both contests but kept the records! 😅😅

Se antes os jovens garotos de Liverpool gravavam as mensagens juntos e animados, a partir de 1968 a coisa mudou de figura: mais maduros, e com outros interesses e preocupações, cada um enviou sua parte separada para os dois últimos flexidiscs de Natal. +

In the late 80s/early 90s, I was part of the stamped-addressed envelope indie scene, posting letters and fanzines and flexidiscs and whatnot up and down the country, and popping postcards up in record shops (and, when we were flush, in the back pages of Melody Maker) to find fellow band members

O primeiro minidisco de Natal dos Beatles, gravado em 17 de outubro de 1963 — mesmo dia em que gravaram “I Want to Hold Your Hand” —, causou tamanho frenesi que virou tradição: no Natal seguinte, e em todos os outros até 1969, milhares de flexidiscs foram enviados aos fãs. +

We've looked into making flexidiscs and they're even pricier than real records, which is a shame cos they'd make fantastic giveaways

Not sure if flexidiscs count as vinyl, but they probably do.
Stefan Goldmann - Scale & Scope
4 x coloured flexidiscs.
Had to look up on Discogs to see what order to play them. And find a blank side 12” to rest them on whilst spinning.

Issue 300 is SOLD OUT!
As is yesterday’s programme, so #LOFC shouldn’t mind us sharing this extract: a tribute to everyone who helped us along the way, whether they wrote, read, bought, sold, subscribed, sang, drew, designed, made flexidiscs, carried, collected, donated, or supported us in any way

Nice to see MAC's face smiling out of today's Times to share some deep knowledge about obscure, silly cultural artifacts! He collects all kinds of weird flexidiscs in addition to the cereal box records...often displaying them at the WFMU Record Fairs.
MAC (Mike Cumella), longtime host of WFMU's "Antique Phonograph Hour," was featured in this New York Times article on cereal-box records (gift link).
Cereal Box Records Sound Horrible. They Still Look Incredible. (Gift Article)
Decades ago, singles were printed on cereal boxes as cutout prizes. Now, a dedicated few are working to save these cardboard treasures from extinction.

I did have a lot of these at one time, they were regular giveaways with various mags etc.
Sold or lost most of them so just a few left (the not so good ones) 🙄

Never managed to get it to load. It was hard enough sometimes to get a game off a non-copied cassette, let alone flexidiscs.

This is a true fact: there is a company that will make cardboard records, flexidiscs, all that old stuff. I keep trying to come up with a project that will allow me to make some.
