I remember them being used by kids in the early 60s at my school to make "flying saucer" records (well, tapes, but...) where you talk about fellow students and school staff and then drop in cuts from 45 rpm records. Also the recording instrument on which I first heard "my voice" which was not a happy experience. Funny, years of recording now, and I still blanche at my voice.
