National Eight-Track Tape Day

It’s National Eight-Track Tape Day! Most of you are probably wondering what exactly an “eight-track” is. Well, eight-tracks were a method of distributing/listening to music back in the day…waaaaayyyyy back in the day! They were most popular in the United States. They were first distributed in the 1960s. By the 1980s their popularity has worn off, and the next “big thing” was took over!

Still not sure what I’m talking about? Well, here’s an image of a Phil Collins eight-track:
