The Old Ferguson

I got this old cassete player today as a free item on the FreeCycle scheme of Milton Keynes. I wanted to convert some old tapes into MP3 files.... obviously it didn't work, not sure whether because Ferguson is too old or the tapes themselves...
But it reminded me of my childhood. Grandma had one of those radio-cassete players. Not an English Ferguson, but a Brazilian version of it, which I used to listen to every day before going to school...
