I told him that I a had a record album of Spike Jones. We listened to it the other day. After side 1 finished, he was amazed when the record player "magically" returned the needle arm to the side. He then said "That was great, I'm going upstairs to play". I asked, "Don't you want to finish it?" and flipped the album over to side 2. "That's cool!" he said, "It plays on BOTH sides?"
If I'm not wrong, that was his first experience with a record player. He was amazed with the total experience. Let's see you do that with an mp3 player.
Spike Jones' album "Dinner Music for people who aren't very hungry".

The amazing draw of silly music across generational lines! If I remember correctly, The Ogre's favorite was Spike Jones' recording of "The Flight of the Bumble Bee".
