I think somewhere in the 80's I Switched to Cassettes

Same here when we bought our first pickup. Cassette player was already in it--we just had to supply the tunes.

Yeah, it was doing some weird things when I quoted it, but I figured it out and pared it down. 😉

I used to Drive around a Lot.
Had Reason for Tunes.
Now I am rarely in the car long enough to need the Radio

Back then a person could drive around a fair bit what one gallon costs today.
I had a case that held 80-8 tracks. Took up some room, but I'd rather have tunes than a some mooch sitting in the back.

 

[jeff of pa]

yep , if I Remember right I had 3 of them.
at the very least 2 and a smaller case of spillovers.

this says 60 ,----30 each side

I'd be in the Record store at the mall every PayDay.

And once a year, always loaded up with Pirate Tapes on the Boardwalk in Atlantic City. the labels would dry out and fall off.
most had magic marker titles after but the price was good.
'Lotta Pink Floyd Bootlegs , Lotta Zappas, everything by Zepplin too


Plus Columbia House & RCA were always good for a few

My mother loved her music, she used to play my Pink Floyd wish you were here album when she would do the housework when nobody else was home she told me. She loved that album. She got a quadraphonic player too. Though we only found 2 albums that were recorded in quad. One I got which was some trippy hippy thing, the other I can't recall. They were as rare as hens teeth to get quad records. The player was a HMV. I got my own player with money from my first after school job delivering papers, it was a PYE brand.
This was like my mums player.

Hey I do remember too when I once didn't have enough cash for a Diamond needle you could buy Sapphire needles. They didn't last anywhere near as long as the Diamond ones though. Man this is making me feel my age! 😆

 

[jeff of pa]

I Had a quadraphonic 8 Track in my Car.
Bought it at Radio Shack

Frank Zappas Don't eat Yellow snow in Quad was awesome
the Music Danced around with the echos..
so was ELP's welcome back my friends to the show that never ends ending .the Moog Spun around in the car both directions at the same time Faster & Faster tieing your brain in a knot & Exploded .
Very Trippy !
I had a Few Quad Tapes but they were Rare

 

[jeff of pa]

Nope I Never Noticed Sapphire needles.
or forgot them

You could have $100k cash buried in your backyard, and the government is still stealing it via currency debasement (printing money to cover difference between what they spend and how much they receive in taxes). Ironically Bitcoin is the only escape from our system of legal theft.

I have this aversion to almost Anything New !

Hated Cassette Tapes when they Replaced 8 tracks.
Hated cd's when they Replaced Cassettes
Hated Discs when they Replaced VHS
hated cell phones for a long time.
Still Hate Those Rectangular phones when they replaced 90 % Of Flip Phones.

hate lap tops

took me a while to accept a plastic bank card

and yes the second I saw a QR Code, I was in Hate !
& thought WTF !

Hated MS when it Replaced MRS & MISS

Which ones are new to you?

 

[jeff of pa]

not goin there !
this is not politics

 

[DizzyDigger]

8-track?

My first vehicle was a 1966 Dodge pickup, and it had a 12v 4-track deck. Big hole in the bottom of the cassette, and a rubber wheel would come up and pull the tape through. Had a Frankie Valli tape, plus a Jimmy Hendrix...maybe one more..don't remember.

 

[jeff of pa]

I never saw a 4 Track Cassette player.

Just Reel to Reel. they were as rare as quads .
columbia house had them for a very short time.
I may have been their only customer

looked like this

 

[Limitool]

Which ones are new to you?

I'm your huckelberry.... I'll bite. I'm with Jeff here. Any pronouns I/we learned in the 1950's all work very well in today's world still. All the new ones that deal with personal inclusive language outside of "him" and "her" can hit the trash. Him & her covers 99% of us. And "it" covers the last 1%.

Does that explain it clearly...? Nothing to do with politics as this falls in the COMMON SENSE arena. Not in some bizarre crazy weird made up world with all the new crazy pronouns. Those are the "new ones" which have no place in today's world. Maybe someone has a qr code which explains it in more easy to understand verbiage.

RtR recordings or machines?

I knew quite a few people who bought vinyl, and immediately recorded the music on 10" RtR or cassette. Then they'd archive the vinyl and play the bejeebers out of the tapes.
