Ah yes I remember the centre things for singles. You could of course play a single without them, but you had to be very precise how you positioned it on the turntable.

Cowboy hats may have been a phrase only my brothers and I used. It was when a record was really warped but still played, so you could put it on the turntable and it would, as one of my brothers noted, wave goodbye to you as it went around, undulating like the waves of the sea. Being curved up at both sides then, this made us think of cowboy hats.

Ours would be much more warped than this, but it gives you an idea.
