Eight tracks? Are you kidding, Arran? Eight freakin' tracks??
Oh well, to each his own...
I use CDs (which has already been declared a "dead" format) in my Excursion for the sake of convenience. I agree that analog records sound better than the digitized versions. But MP3 tunes (digitized 1950s music) stored in a computer and played through my SSTRAN sound pretty good on an AM radio.
Oh - Back on the subject of vinyl...
I recently picked up Jackie Gleason Presents Music, Martinis and Memories. It's a stereo re-recording of the original 1954 mono album, and not quite as good as the original. I should have held out for an original mono copy. But it's still a prime example of Mid Century mood music.
(Did you know The Great One was not only a comedian, but also had his own orchestra?)
