Actually, I can remember my brother getting his first tape recorder. I can also remember my dear old Gran's shock when she heard her voice being played back to her for the very first time! I was about 3 when it happened, but I can remember it vividly.
My Granddad also used to tell of the time he first heard radio. He ran home and told his dad that he'd just heard a man speaking all the way from London. His father promptly gave him a clip around the ear for lying!
