kh1958 Posted April 13, 2017 Report Share Posted April 13, 2017 Sadly, you are too late--the 8 track museum is gone--no longer a mysterious destination on Commerce Street in Deep Ellum. When I think of how many times I walked by without venturing inside, it is almost as if I just did not care. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Milestones Posted April 13, 2017 Report Share Posted April 13, 2017 My view has always been that the 8-track was the worst music format ever invented. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I think of how many gigs I played in the bar next door without venturing in because it was never open, it's almost as if nobody cared. Having seen that video now, I wish I could have seen the foldable 8-track. That's one that stretches the possibilities of possible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Milestones Posted April 13, 2017 Report Share Posted April 13, 2017 I will admit the video was kind of interesting, and the guy might have made a longer one to preserve an artifact that is all but lost to history (not that's it a great loss).
