This is the JVC Nivico 4TR4 Console Stereo that I'm guessing was made in the 1960's. It has a 4track reeltoreel deck, a turntable and AM/FM radio that uses a special adaptor for picking up stations broadcast in stereo which was a newfangled concept at the time.
I love the 1948 film "Words and Music" and so I chose one of the 78rpm records from the soundtrack to demo the console, "I Wish I Were In Love Again" sung by Mickey Rooney and Judy Garland. If you haven't seen this movie and get a chance to, please go see it or pick it up. It is not available on DVD but is still available on VHS tape if you can find it. Once in a really blue moon it is shown on some of the more obscure cable channels. Speaking of which, Mel Torme sings "Blue Moon" in this film. It's also one of the rare opportunities to catch Perry Como in a film, not only singing, but acting too... he was such a dreamboat.
I could not find any current legal info on this 78RPM record or this song so I hope I'm not violating any copyright but if I am, please let me know and I'll yank this video.
Sorry for some of the noisiness when I'm talking near the stereo, I was standing directly beneath a ceiling fan and didn't realize the mic would pick up wind noise from it.
This video is especially for my buddy 78RecordRepair and also for my long time buddy and fellow Mickey Rooney addict Shannon.
