Well if you're talking about the old disc players, those needles were death on records, but yah, you could play em. Why do ya think those old talking book records had such poor quality?

I've never really heard a definitive answer for that one; all I know is: people used to do it all the time (played their records on the talking book machines)..now it might be a thing where..the needles were bigger..and the grooves in the old talking book records were bigger; I don't know for sure..but oh yeah..playing record albums on talking book machines was a practice that people did a lot! But I'm fairly certain that..if one had talked with their librarian..I'm sure they would have said "Oh no; you're not supposed to play records on these machines!"
