It took me a while but I found the exact model online. Paul Shaffer used the same one on the Late Show.

We were talking about it yesterday so I thought I would look it up.

It costs more on Ebay now than it did new. It wasn't the best quality but it got the job done.

Sony stuff is actually quite good. Missing some bass, I'm sure but It'll be great for a job site.

It trends at around $100. It was very plasticky (if that's a word.) The speakers I use now are Technics bookshelf speakers made with wood. Much better sound.

Back then I never took it anywhere. It stayed in my bedroom and I would listen to the CD's that I would get from the BMG Music Club on it. Many hours wearing that CD player down...

I have mine from 1990 and it's in the barn. I still use it nearly every day.

I miss those days.

Everyone seemed to have a boombox going outside when I was a kid. You rarely hear music now.

It had detachable speakers so you could hang them on the wall. I liked it better as one piece.

I loved it during the day. It couldn't have been too bad. Paul Shaffer used one and he had quite a bit more money to spend than I did...

I think you could copy tapes with it and if so I probably made my own mix tapes. I mostly liked it for CD's though.

As a kid I always wanted that expensive yellow Sony Walkman and later the CD version.

I managed to get the Walkman at a garage sale a few years ago for 2 or 3 bucks.

Quite possibly. I got into techno music for a while. I liked the stuff from Europe that was harder to find. I was a big fan of Prodigy years later.
