In the 1960s-70s, Indians who had radio sets in their homes often boasted about it. A Murphy Radio set usually occupied pride of place in their homes, especially in their drawing rooms. It would be kept at a higher plane away from children's reach. Many Indians would actually stitch an embroidered cloth cover for it. Families would play the popular radio programmes on high volume, attracting radio-less neighbours to stand outside and listen. Murphy's famous advertising tagline was sung by Mohammad Rafi: " Murphy ghar ghar ki rounak ,tarah tarah ke murphy radio , la deten hain ghar mein jaan ."
