I ruined my Billy Joel's GH Vol 1&2 tape but putting it in an 8 track player along with my copy of UB40's Labour of Love II. I thought you just had to combine tapes to match the size of an 8-track?
Look, you have to establish context for these things. And I maintain that unless you appreciate the Fall of Constantinople, the Great Fire of London, and Mickey Mantle's fatalist alcoholism, live Freddy makes no sense. If you want to half-ass it, fine, go call Simon Schama to do the appendix.

Somewhere in the garage are 8-tracks of The Wall and some Bill Cosby record...along with a Beta tape of Day of the Triffids.
I'm so punk, I don't even take my leather jacket off when it catches fire. Which it does frequently, because of how fucking punk I am.

That particular tape was ruined once they put the music on it.

Cosby is funny. I got to see him live a few years ago.

My dad had that too. BC approval appears to be the consensus.

I'm on that train if the Cosby Show can be exiled to an alternate universe. It took Ray Romano to surpass that high water mark for sitcom blandness.

Can we make it an Unwritten Rule?

My Dad had the LP "Why is there air?" -- which is hilarious, especially the Midol routine.
