Photos: Rewinding 30 years of the Walkman
Jul 6, 2009
By 1997, Walkmans really were becoming much sleeker. The WM-EX652 was considered one of the best cassette Walkmans of that year, along with a whole slew of features, such as logic controls, blank skip, track repeat and automatic music search, it also had "Mega bass" and "Groove" to enhance the sound of Elton John's Candle in the Wind ballad.
