Sad.... All those tapes ruined....... But not surprising seeing the mentality of the sheeple morons today!! I say we bring 100 audio and video CDs in front of a red robin and with a hammer SMASH THEM ALL TO HELL!!!!!!!! (Thats garbage worth ruining) Last edited by Dude111; 04-11-2024 at 02:26 PM. |

Looks like all they did is paint some and glue them to a board...As long as they did not rip the magnetic tape out or paint the tape inside there are still ways to play them....I've seen various restaurants and record stores do FAR worse to records in the name of decoration...
Hopefully they used tapes of musicians and styles that nobody likes....I'd guess that almost no one collects Christmas music or classical on 8-track. I kill 8-tracks with garbage music on them regularly to obtain the parts I need to keep my tapes with good music alive, and have something to record music I can't readily get on 8-track onto.

Well thats understandable (Using parts from ones you dont like TO SAVE ONES YOU DO)
Yes hopefully thats all they did!!! (Would be nice to think the tape is still inside) |

You're probably right. I doubt they'd bother getting any from eBay, and that kind of crap music is about all I see on 8-track at thrift stores, if they even bother to put them out.

Slim Whitman's greatest hits? By golly, go ahead and destroy them....
Zepplin, Steppenwolf, Skynrd, Croce, Boz, Seger, Three Dog Night? Please don't.....

Add Zappa, Pink Floyd, Steely Dan, the Beatles, the Doors, ELO, and several others to the preserve list in no particular order. A friend of mine has Iron Butterfly's "A-Godda-Da-Vidda" on original 8-track, and hearing it on the player in my 78 Lincoln Mark V is making me want to find or make a Copy real bad...That is some good road music!

Sure wish I could find that tape again..

This bad as those idiots that cut up console TV/Shereo's to make fish tanks or bookshelves plus those people that plaster their walls with 45's and albums.NO I dont want to see my 8 track collection or cassette collection or anything else glued together on a wall somewhere.People dont have any respect for the older generations stuff .

I don't care much what others do with their stuff (except when they do something as dumb as to be compared with setting fire to a c-note), but if someone intentionally tries to ruin my stuff that will bring out some serious anger form me.

One good thing about collecting stuff older than we are is that it may gain a decent following in our lifetimes. I have noticed if any 8-tracks are being given away around here they're jumped on faster than you can say jackrabbit. I'll bring Sharpies and draw on big mustaches... I'm saying 1911 big... and black out some teeth. |

Never much cared4 8-tracks. Thought they more often than not, sounded AWFUL, they'd ALWAYS change tracks in the middle of the one tune I liked..And sooner or later, the player WOULD eat the tapes. Buddy of mine, there was one he'd ordered, it was pretty obscure, & he hadn't played it in a car at all. His dad came to pick him up for Thanksgiving break, he had a brand new 1975 Lincoln, Jack took a chance & put the tape in &- You guessed it- tape player ate well for lunch that afternoon...
