V.T. Eric Layton Posted February 14, 2020 Posted February 14, 2020 Heh! I'm one of the three. Ah... the memories. Cassettes were hi-tech compared to 8Tracks. There was a trick to rewinding those, too. Anyone here remember that? 1 1 Quote
securitybreach Posted February 14, 2020 Posted February 14, 2020 Eight tracks were before my time. 1978 was a good year 1 Quote
amenditman Posted February 14, 2020 Author Posted February 14, 2020 Sorry VTEL, never had 8 tracks. Albums and cassette were my tools. 1 Quote
V.T. Eric Layton Posted February 14, 2020 Posted February 14, 2020 I still have my albums and many cassettes, too. I only have one 8Track, though... Donovan's Greatest Hits. It's the only one of many to survive to this day. Unfortunately, I do not currently have a means to play this tape. However, I have it on CD these days. Oldie-Goody! 1 Quote
mlangdn Posted February 15, 2020 Posted February 15, 2020 (edited) My first car stereo was a 4 channel 8 track player. Cost me $105 dollars, which was really expensive back in '73. Didn't have didn't have nothing fancy like ff or rewind. If you had a favorite, you played 'em all until it got to it.......You whippersnappers have no clue.....

It wasn't physically possible due to the design for the single-spool tape holder. You could FF, though on some of them. Oh, and the trick to fix an unstrung 8-Track is to pull on one leg of the tape and the internal spool would suck the tape back into the cartridge after a couple pulls. It was pretty neato how that worked. Further reading: Forgotten audio formats: 8-track tapes 1 Quote
