Hank Williams Jr! ac_dance
aka..... Bocephus lol.
He has LOTS of good songs. His Dad was also super popular before him. And now there is Hank the III doing it lol. Hank III did awful music at first, cause he went off the path, but when he came back to the path, he sounded WAY better.

Well, they were kinda like a cassette tape, only they were bigger, and you got 4 songs on 1 side, and 4 on the other. Shit was all messed up, cause you couldnt fast forward, you simply hit skip, but when you did, the next song would kick off about the same amount of time you had in to the song you were on before you hit skip :laugh:
I got one here, it was built into my place when this place was made lol. Still works, but I dont have any tapes.

One of my Mom's faves....
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZAWSiWtUK2s
8 Tracks were like Betamax, Laser Discs (the record sized ones), and mini discs. All by the wayside...
Toshiba's DVD drive system also. BLUray killed that too..
The only analog advantage today is music (records, and even that's subjective, and tube amps, also subjective), and for radio comms, where analog still works well.

They are talking here about following much of Europe by phasing out FM/AM radios and particularly AM able receivers in cars because "added expense for shielding against electrical components elsewhere....wahhhhhh".
Shielding has nothing to do with it. They don't want longer range transmissions possible. It's a bait and switch scheme. They'll kill AM radio broadcasting for rural and outback folks, then bring in some crazy scheme to populate the entire continent with short distance capable DAB+ stations and the 5G plus, which from my understanding loses range with each G increase.
Cars aren't made to last or be repaired beyond piddly issues these days yet the costs have exponentially blown out for inferior vehicles....
Wonder why that is.... oh, wait.... could it be that they also don't want long range transmission of people on the move bringing ideas and commerce.... ?
I think it is exactly why they're doing everything outlined above, under the guise of anthropogenic caused climate change.... which is a farce of a theory if there ever was one...
Nahh... they want us destitute, stupid, repeatedly jabbed, culturally infused with immigrants who don't share our values or love of order....because they want the greater majority of us dead.
That's the bottom line. I feel it and have felt it in my gut since I was a youngin...
But, why?
And that is where people really become unglued.... discussing the possibilities why.

I had a factory 8-track player in one of the many beater cars I had as a kid. I can't even remember which one it was. It might have been one of the chevies.
I guess he didn't stick around for long.

I dunno. I didn't believe in the difference between solid state amps and tube amps at first until a buddy of mine who plays a lot of electric guitar proved it to me. I don't play a lot of electric, but I've played on both solid and tube, and there is a difference, even with the same guitar and all the knobs set up the same.
That's my problem with electric guitar. I spend more time fiddling with all the knobs than playing the strings.
Analog TV is still good for old video games too. They look way better than on a digital tv. In fact, couple weeks ago, I set up a retro gaming station lol. Its my old 32" box tv, hooked up to a Super Nintendo, a Nintendo 64, and a Playstation 2 ac_dance

This is why I included amplification as a potential advantage for music, but only in limited scenarios, such as electric guitars.
When driven hard, they overload and produce a sound that cannot be matched by any digital means. When driven easy, they also produce variables.
It's like the scratching on a 45 record. Purists demand that experience.
CD quality has been proven to be at the limit of what the human ear can detect, with regards to differences.
Tubes and vinyl records introduce, naturally, differences in that sound.
I got a big old Pye stereo and speakers from the mid 1960's years ago... think wooden furniture with a turntable, AM radio, and an auxiliary jack.
Never played a record through it but mp3's sounded so fucking good.
Especially music of the day like Simon and Garfunkel.
Gave the speakers to my workplace and somebody blew them up eventually.. but they still functioned very well.
