ben_dover,

I’d rip them to tape and use my real walkman because anti-shock sucks

roguetrick,

For real though. Getting a portable CD player was such a disappointment. We just went back to tape even once MP3 players became popular. Mixtapes with custom cover art.

NoFX - The Decline

BoxOfFeet,

In 2001, I still only had CDs my parents bought for me. So, it was probably Jethro Tull’s Greatest Hits, or Bob Seger Live Bullet.

And it wasn’t a Walkman, it was a Panasonic that I still use.

Stepa, Incubus, Korn, Linkin Park,…

TheControlled,

The Attraction to All Things Uncertain by Tweaker

I’ll bet I was the only 6th grader jamming to that one on a Walkman. I still listen to that band and that album. It’s quite fucking good.

Kool Keith Black Elvis - Lost in Space

Pulptastic,

I got a discman in 95ish and listened to STP - Core, Blind Melon, and RHCP - What Hits mostly. It took two AA batteries and only lasted for 4-5 hours.

In 2001 I had a Phillips portable CD player that used 1 AA and lasted for 12+ hours. I was listening to Lateralus, Guster - Lost and Gone Forever, Mer de Noms, and Pump Up the Valuum.

Toxicity for sure

Razzazzika,

One of my many mp3 mix cds of course.

Pulptastic,

Oh man I forgot all about that. My portable CD player could play mp3 so I ripped all my albums onto like 8 burnable CDs.
