    Happy 420

    I tried texting a buddy at 4:20 pm but my phone rang from another friend wishing me 420. What a bunch of dorks.

    8track is the same as reel 2 reel?....new one on me. Personally in all my R2R days I never heard the song stop and click to the next channel on R2R....maybe I wasn't listening good enough...

    Well -- in fairness ;) the tape width is the same (1/4 inch) and the tape speed, 3-3/4 ips, was one of the choices (albeit not a great one) on consumer grade reel to reel decks in the old days... but, yeah, someone's either crafting humorous fiction to ensure internet fame or they were drinkin' the bong water before typing. B)

    This being said, there were some eight-track, quarter-inch "prosumer" (barely) reel to reel decks made & sold (e.g., by Fostex). Utterly incompatible with 8-track cartridge tape format, of course (kinda by definition), they were aimed at the "garage band"/MTV star wannabe market, I think -- for studio-style multitrack work (as opposed to listening to Journey or Barb[a]ra Streisand at home or in the car). They were also not particularly well designed or built, apparently, and haven't held up too well.

    How can you trust ANYONE that owns 6 Barbra Streisand 8-tracks and 2 Engelbert Humperdinck 8-tracks, let alone not being able to spell either of their names properly? :o

    Here's photo of conductor Arthur Fielder and Paul Klipsch with a Klipsch speaker that was being given to Mr. Fiedler as part of an advertising campaign.

    ... and, of course, later in life, he'd be shilling umm, I mean representing the hifi products of a (once) local Boston concern. ;)

    He inherited that mantle from no less a luminary than... Lester Lanin. ;)

    In all seriousness, I loved Fiedler's iteration of the Pops -- as did my parents.

    I can remember seeing him riding a firetruck in Boston parades, evidently he was an honorary member of a fire company. Anybody have his direct-to-disc recording?

    The Lafayette RK-D50 was my first home cassette deck. I paid $50.00 or $75.00 used
    when it was a couple of years old. It worked well for several years until I
    upgraded to a Technics RS-M270X with dbx. It had a wired remote.
    My brother still has it. Photos from the web.
