For the benefit of those too young to remember... 8 track is an early cassette tape type design before the emergence of the compact tape cassettes the younger generations are more familiar with. The size of a cartridge is somewhat slightly bigger than the 1st generation iPod music player.

Sound quality wasn't that good but the option would be to bring your vinyl records with you. :D

I think the 8-track is significantly thicker and bigger than a 1g iPod.


Ugh. Some of the 70's music really sucked. Yek

Anyway as I said before, I'm not one to impose my beliefs on anyone else. I won't impose them even to my own kids. I said the same stuff to my elder daughter and all she gave me was that blank, clueless, "Huh?" stare. *sigh*

true, 8-track tapes are thicker but it's kinda hard to find another common item that the current generation can find familiarity with.

Is that pic of 8-track tapes from your collection?
