A flexi single


Flexi Singles

These were ultra thin records that came free inside pop magazines, bags of cereal, bank accounts, and practically everything else in 1985.

The sound quality was dreadful, you had to put a 10p coin on top otherwise they slid off the turntable, the maximum playing time was about three minutes, and as often as not they were torn, but - hey - they were free.

And they made good frisbees.
